The Eagle Hotel Restaurant in Highland

called in 3 times for drinks and also a meal on a Friday night, very friendly, good range of drinks, meals were very nice, welcoming place to eat or drink

Fun little place pub filled with nice people, including the staff. My dinner of langoustine scampi was good; my wife's chicken and rice soup was excellent with large pieces of chicken. Went back the next evening for drinks, a gin tasting, and spoke with a number of regular patrons.

Great hotel, great owner, nice food. We had a great sleep in a clean, quite modern bedroom. The bar was well stocked, food was lovely staff were friendly and attentive. Good pub atmosphere.Great hosts too.

Really good food with a good choice fast and friendly service in a relaxing atmosphere right in the centre of town so easy to find

I had read the negative reviews, decided to give it a try anyway and had a lovely evening. We were greeted with a friendly welcome and shown to our table. It was early so there were only 2 others in the restaurant ( 2 other tables were ready with a four and an eight setting). My companion went to the bar to look at the beer/ale offerings and came back laughing having sampled a couple before making a choice! The menu is standard pub food. We had scampi and highland chicken (chicken breast stuffed with haggis and wrapped in bacon served with a mustard sauce). It came promptly, was piping hot and served up with a smile. A positive experience for us.

We have eaten at The Eagle Hotel a number of times. It’s typical pub grub, enjoyable and overall good service. However on our visit tonight we are very disappointed with the service. One waitress seemed to be doing all the work. 2 ladies behind the bar and a further staff member polishing bottles. We had to ask for our dinner plates to be cleared after waiting and no one attending. We asked for dessert menus and had to wait for these. We were ready to order desserts but second waiting member of staff continued to keep their back to us. Eventually we gave up, paid and walked along to Dornoch Stores and bought ice cream. We felt very sorry for the waitress who seemed to be running around while the others chatted. We won’t go back, there’s plenty of places to eat near us.

Had a lovely lunch here. Walked from Grannies Heilan Hame in Embo to Dornoch. Great service from the lovely staff. Food was good. What's not to like!

Popped in to this quaint little village pub for a meal with my family. We hadn't prebooked but was greeted as we walked in and led to a table straight away. The lady serving us was lovely, friendly and chatty without being too up in the face. The right balance of customer service. The food arrived in a timely manner and was good quality and delicious (even my fussy children loved it). The price of the food was a little higher than average but the quality was worth it.

Soup came out stone cold, the curry was a wash with oil and the pie top crust pastry was burnt. The dinning area needs a lot of tlc. I got the impression everything was cooked from a frozen pack of a supermarket shelve. Certainly not work the mark up price. We won't be returning anytime soon.

Service was slow and was only offered the table by the open door even though better tables were offered to walk ins after us. The menu was out of the 1980’s and pretty basic. There was a wait but it was busy, we had the soup and baked potato and the potato was cold however nobody checked back with us to check if everything was ok. We also had the toastie which was full of nicely melted cheese however the bread seemed slightly greasy.

Called in whilst looking round Dornoch. Staff friendly enough and service good. Food arrived promptly. Fish and chips nice and hot. Macaroni cheese dish had curdled. Despite THREE members of staff asking whether our food was alright and us pointing out issue with one dish nobody was interested. Comment from chef was “it was made fresh today”. I don’t usually put negative comments on Facebook but if you ask if food is good three times and we have an issue at least respond as though you care. Won’t be visiting again.

We had our dinner early 1800hrs… We were the only ones here for the first hour or so. Drinks order taken as usual, and starts, mains came on time. Great portions and great service, would recommend a visit. Only downside that a family came in and the husband wanted to watch the golf. Didn’t ask any other diners if that it was ok nor did staff ask.

Nice atmosphere, seated in a comfortable booth, staff very friendly. Good quality comfort food served hot and within an appropriate time.

We went to Eagle for a pint one day and loved the lively pub atmosphere of this pub. When leaving we made a booking for the following day for dinner. Food was awesome. We would highly recommend a visit to this pub for a pint or a meal.

Traditional bar. Lovely atmosphere. Friendly and courteous staff. Always smiling. Can recommend the sirloin steak, also roast dinner.

Stay at the eagle hotel every year for a week.. Eric & Suzi are excellent hosts go out of their way to make sure your stay is enjoyable.. all staff are friendly & make you feel at home..

Went for a family dinner last night, 31 July 2023. Unfortunately, I couldn’t recommend this place as I was served raw chicken for my fajitas. I mean 95% raw - see photo. Absolutely disgusting and extremely dangerous! Wouldn’t recommend.

Absolutely amazing, some of the best battered fist I have ever eaten!! Would definitely recommend!! They also do gluten free and vegan so everyone can eat!! Can't wait to come again!! Many thanks to Robbie DeVenny who was a fabulous waiter!!

First, even though we’d phoned ahead to book they couldn’t find our booking. They then sat us in a room that’s clearly used as the hotel breakfast room, with half the breakfast stuff still sitting on a table, with a big TV blaring. We had to ask them several times to turn the TV off as it was showing the news which was upsetting for our 7 year old. No one explained the specials or asked us if we wanted more drinks or a dessert. We just wanted to leave which we did after one course. Food was ok. Some improvements needed please to make people feel more welcome on their holidays.

Lunchtime visit for 7 friends having booked in advance. Lovely lunchtime fare - we all had sandwiches, toasties or starters rather than main meals but we all really enjoyed our food. Service was excellent and we sampled a good range of drinks from the bar. Recommended definitely, thank you for a lovely visit.

Went for lunch , service very good ,friendly place . Food tasty and worth the money . Price for main meals around 15 pound and sandwiches around 7 pound

I went here for a meal with my mother while on holiday. We arrived for an early dinner and although the dining room was all reserved there was tables available in the bar end. We both ordered the macaroni and cheese. I chose with garlic bread and the other with chips. Delicious. We also had a dessert. One cheesecake and a trio of ice-cream with sadly I couldn't finish. The prices were really reasonable and the staff were friendly.

We stayed here for just one night whilst travelling in Scotland. The rooms are basic, clean and functional but the bed was very uncomfortable. The restaurant lacked any real atmosphere but it was packed out so I guess they must be doing something right. However I must say that the food was pretty good.

Pretty grim dinner, roast beef dinner with all the veg and potatoes, no gravy on the veg when asked they didnt have any more gravy.Think it was all frozen and then microwaved and chicken tenders and dried up chips. Told the waitress it was awful she just cleared the plates without a word.

My wife and I enjoyed a well cooked meal in friendly surroundings at this restaurant. We had the Highland Chicken, which was well presented and everything was cooked to perfection. Some great local ales on tap as well and the prices were very reasonable. I would definitely recommend eating here if you are in Dornoch.

Managed to squeeze us in last night before a table reservation. Really lovely meal. Scampi & chips and Haddock & chips. Very tasty, excellent & fast service. Would recommend

Decent bar food in a village where this is not to much choice of this type of food and price bracket. We also stayed in the hotel overnight and rooms were basic but clean and all you need for a overnight stay. Would stay again

Good central location. Hotel itself is very old fashioned & could do with a bit of money being spent on it. Over priced for what you get. Food was typical pub grub & ok. Single twin beds are not suitable for the average sized adult....

I read the reviews before we booked and we were very disappointed with the experience. The food was not great and felt like I was eating in my grannies living room.

Brilliant meal once again. Hubby had haddock and said it was gorgeous and so was my macaroni. Going back again tonight even though we were only there on Friday

It was truly a 5* dinner. We were a family off 11 each one off us including kids thought our meals were the best we have had in a long time. The staff were so friendly, and helpful, if you are in Dornoch, do not...

You could not have asked for a warmer or friendlier welcome. We were made to feel like old friends. It was so lovely and the service was above and beyond. The food was good, to the point we decided to go back again. The menu...

There was a really good atmosphere outside and inside of this amazing place. The staff were friendly and attentive. Most of all the food was the best we have ever had. Tot wit was absolutely fantastic!

We left home to walk the dogs and get a chippy we need up at the eagle for dinner 😂 My wife had the steak I had the kids fish, the fish was amazing the batter was perfect and the fish actually tasted like fish....

Great food at a reasonable price.Friendly reliable service.I would highly recommend this restaurant.

We went to the Eagle based on reviews stating that there were vegan options - there is a menu with several choices - bean chilli, veg curry, chicken style burger, beef style burger or baked potato with beans. I ordered the veg&bean burger (it was...

This is how a pub needs to be run. Great service, friendly staff, good beer. We also had a flight of whiskies (hic) and the knowledge imparted by the barman enthusiast extraordinaire was worth the cost alone. A great place for a beer on the...

We visited on the 17th of August and looked forward to chicken fajitas. I was however given a plate with chunks of barely cooked chicken covered in a stodgy red sticky sauce. Dips were straight from a bottle - guacamole etc. I couldn’t eat it....

Stopped here for lunch after struggling to find anywhere open in Dornoch to sit in for lunch and so glad we found here! Staff were super friendly and it was a nice relaxed atmosphere. Had a couple of drinks and some lunch sat outside since...

We rolled into Dornoch starving with the resteraunt we planned to eat at was closed due to illness, the eagle hotel managed to squeeze us in and out family all had a great meal, speedy service and very friendly staff! Our Bairns specially loved it!

Excellent choice of food and drinks, well set out and clean, great food, service was great, would highly recommend.

Excellent. I would definitely go back. The staff were lovely and very chatty. They took an interest in us and made us feel very welcome. Good was also a fantastic standard. Very clean and affordable.

Food was good. Excellent fish and chips. Everything was large portioned and tasted good. Beer was cold and tasty. But, what made the restaurant great was the staff. They were very wonderful even holding my 5 month old daughter so that I could eat with...

over priced food just the same old stuff lot's of other places we could have gone to to get better tasting fish n chips not the best but not the worst probably not go back until we save up a small fortune to have another...

I had previously visited the Eagle Hotel Restaurant on several occasions, albeit several years ago, and the food was delicious. So I had no hesitation on paying the restaurant a visit this year on our latest holiday in Scotland and was very much looking forward...

Food was delicious and service was excellent, nice and friendly. Would highly recommend if you are in Dornoch.

After missing out on a table at the restaurant nearest our campsite we struck lucky by getting a table here. The staff were very helpful and the menu offered a good selection. The quality of the food for the price paid was very good. Highly...

Chicken and haggis lasagna! was tried by one of the family which was a stodgy, bland unappetising mess. Should it have had a tomato sauce? The beef pie, which is in fact a stew with a pastry topping was tasteless with meat chunks being dry...

One night stay in May 2022 Good location - historical building Room was fine - reasonably clean Breakfast was good and well cooked The evening menu was also good with a decent choice of items The hotel is a pub on a reasonably busy road...

Lovely pub, warm and staff welcoming and efficient. Lovely food would definitely recommend. We had fish and chips and the steak pie both great.

Excellent bar food . Good choices and sensible prices. Friendly efficient staff. Good choice of wine . Will return and recommend

Staff were disorganised didn't know what tables were available causing meal to be rushed. lack of organisation resulted in being charged for another tables food. No apology given. Staff attitude worst seen in Scotland. Meal and evening was ruined.

The menu is not extensive but there are dishes to suit all tastes. It was noticeable that all the staff worked well as a team and were friendly and efficient. The food was well cooked with generous portion sizes and, of all the eating places...

Lets start with the food. I ordered the chicken burger and my wife ordered macaroni. The food was good, not great but it wasn't all that bad. The chips that accompanied the meal were a bit anaemic. We had drinks also with our meal, I...

Delicious lunch and a very warm, friendly welcome. It's unlikely that we will ever go through Dornoch again which is a shame.

Staff totally uninterested in comments on food. Steaks were over-seasoned, mushrooms were like straw. Steak pie had over-powering herbs in it and when my mate asked for fish wirh a salad and no chips, still got a mound of them .

We stopped by for lunch on our trip north yesterday. Unfortunately, they don't admit dogs, so we went in reluctantly, leaving the dogs in the car. We had been turned away from another couple of establishments on account of lack of space. However, here we...

Stopped in here for lunch as after visiting Dornoch over many years , we had never stopped here for lunch. The hotel looks great from the outside but inside it looks a bit of a rough and ready pub with loud music playing. Menu was...

After the fierce rains on our NC500 road trip, we pulled into free parking in Dornoch - a fascinating village. We were delighted with a warm friendly welcome from the Staff in the Eagle Hotel. We chose the mouthwatering Highland Chicken with Haggis Stuffing and...

Went to the Eagle Hotel as all the other available restaurants were fully booked by time we got to Dornoch and the Eagle was the furthest from the campsite. This was a blessing as we were able to walk in and get a table no...

This used to be our go to place to eat when we were in the area however the menu is now very basic and was the same when we were here in May. I understand this is possibly Covid related but no local seafood etc...

NC 500 -Basic room and tiny en-suite with unpredictable shower and useless extraction fan! Smell of ‘cooking’ present throughout stay- which was unfortunate. Breakfast pre-ordered on arrival and covid precautions promoted.

A real disappointment, its Almost like they have given up, the welcome was half hearted, the room although a nice size and clean lacked any character. Bathroom again very clean but why the electric shower such a let down. Breakfast was barely edible despite being...

Booked in for an evening meal. Waiting staff we’re all attentive and lots of good COVID practice being demonstrated. Meal arrived quickly and was piping hot - really enjoyed what we had ordered.

We pre booked a table as advised, and arrived a little bit early, we were met with a smile and advised that our table was being cleaned and would be ready in 2 minutes. Once seated staff were very friendly and informative, good varied menu....

Went to this Hotel's bar and restaurant on Thursday lunchtime for something to eat. I had steak and ale pie, and I can honestly say this was one of the best I have ever had. So obviously highly recommend it. Prices were above average, a...

Came into the pub today waited outside and got ignored so just waited in the foyer and got ignored again. Thought it was strange and very rude. A lady came downstairs who was staying there and asked if she can sit and have a drink...

Last visited a decade ago when The Eagle felt like a pub. Now firmly in the restaurant market and probably doing well as a result, as every table was taken with diners. Good menu, varied but not too large. Fish and chips were okay without...

My partner and I called here on a Tuesday evening without booking. Unfortunately we were told no tables were available inside, but we were given the offer to sit on a wooden bench outside which we did. I had the lasagne, my partner had the...

This hotel is really rooms above a pub. The rooms a very nice, spacious and clean. And the food in the pub was very very good. Buts it’s not a full blown hotel experience. It’s a very old building. I could smell cooking smells through...

We had a lovely one night stay here. Really reasonably price and a great family room with a room with two single beds one end, shared bathroom and good sized main bed which was very comfortable and our best nights sleep in the 12 nights...

We were staying locally for a few nights and decided to try the Eagle Hotel for Lunch, the staff were very friendly and welcoming and looked after us well including giving the children colouring sheets and pencils. The menu and specials offered a great choice...

We only had a vert short time as a pitstop on a long coach journey through Scotland, but somehow the friendly staff managed to serve at least 12 of us that appeared at once, as well as their other customers, in really short time! It...

The welcome at the Eagle hotel was amazing. So friendly and accommodating. The rooms are lovely and very nicely decorated. The food in the restaurant was good and the public areas were also nicely set out. The owner is very friendly and only too happy...

Omt wales.. just spent a week at the Eagle hotel.. absolutely brilliant.. management & staff do everything in their power to make ur stay memorable.. all covid rules were abided by.. we ave just booked again for a week next year.. thank you 😊 suzi...

My best friends visited here the other day, sat outside and had food and drink. All was fine until her husband asked to use the bathroom facilities. He has a disability exemption and was refused entry unless he put in a mask and was told...

Went in with family and couldn't have been better, kids had to wear a mask even 6year old which isn't easy, but at the same time save us cooking and I know in this pandemic that we should follow government advice and every place house...

Service was excellent. The food was amazing. The staff very friendly & my dog was made to feel extremely welcome. Can't recommend this place enough..a must when visiting Dornoch..

We sat outside for dinner so it felt very Covid safe, and all staff wore masks. We had lovely burgers including a nice veggie burger, generous sides and a good toddler meal too. Good service and good food.

There is a vegan option but you need to do some enquiring. The “curry of the day” includes a sweet potato and chickpea curry made with coconut milk. Delicious, well cooked, generous portion. Had sorbet for desert - a high quality one but always looking...

We booked a table for dinner at The Eagle and left slightly disappointed with the food quality. We had a warm welcome and were shown to our table in what is a fairly basic dinning room. We had a chicken burger and an Eagle burger,...

We have had a week in Dornoch and ended up having four of our evening meals at the Eagle. Very relaxed surroundings with a varied menu and very good offerings for our daughter who is vegan. Every meal we had was great and I think...

The staff are amazing especially Amanda who went above and beyond to make us feel so welcome! We also had food in the restaurant, lovely food with big portions! Can't wait to come back and visit again! Thanks to all staff :)

Phoned last minute for bed and breakfast ,there was a cancellation ,which we took and so pleased we did ,the receptionist was so helpful and had a super manner made everyone feel welcomed and special. Would return here again

Visited for dinner at last minute. Called to see if any tables were available for dinner and they were able to fit us in which was really nice. Great choice on menu for adults and children. Prices were fair. I liked that the style of...

Looking for gluten free in Dornoch. An excellent good Sunday lunch gluten free. Roast beef delicious anc sticky toffee pudding yummy.

Excellent with my allergies and made me feel safe the outside tables are lovely on a nice day with a dog water bowl meaning your furry friends ate not left out.

Friendly well managed spot with a simple and fresh lunchtime menu. There are outside tables to watch the world go by. Covid has made a negative impact on the catering industry but here they are looking at ways to keep the customer satisfiedand safe. Good...

Stayed 2 nights while up golfing . Great location ,warm friendly welcome Staff friendly,chatty and good service Room was modern and clean and good breakfast options offered Would recommend

We had a couple of drinks in the afternoon and then went back in the evening for food. The onion rings for starters were lovely and crisp, nothing worse than soggy onion rings lol. The main was just average, my husband had chicken and I...

The 3 of us stayed here for one Saturday night whilst doing North Coast 500, and out of the places we stayed, this is one of the better ones! Room was spacious, clean and catered for all our needs. Staff were very friendly and explanatory...

Friendly Staff from start to finish, good food and great pints, Came to Dornoch on a whim, fist bus leaving Inverness, found this lovely Pub and was very impressed by the attentive staff and great food

We both had the steak pie and were not sorry. The meat was succulent, well sourced and well cooked, really delicious.

Went in and all covid measures in place, we wanted to try there special menu seen on Facebook. Had the haggis tower with whisky sauce (I asked for it to be on side) whiskey sauce was best I've had and complimented the haggis very well....

Stayed three nights in this hotel (which is really a pub). Staff were so lovely - really helpful and friendly and working so hard to keep everything going with all the new rules and regulations. Deep cleaned the public areas every day. Room spotless and...

Had fab food here and highly recommend. Absolutely the best lasagne I’ve ever eaten! Good socially distanced tables and cleanliness.

Lovely lunch at the Eagle Hotel. Great selection of menu. Pet friendly, our dogs were given a bowl of fresh water.

Just called in for a couple of drinks Food that was going out looked very good so will eat there next time . Lovey helpful staff and good spacing between tables so felt quite safe and staff all wearing masks
