The Sheiling Restaurant in Highland

Acabo de tener un hermoso almuerzo de Navidad aquí. 3 platos + petiit fours y café. El personal fue genial. Espero que vuelvan a abrir a mediados de febrero.

La primera visita a The Sheilingm intentó reservar el año pasado, pero las fechas no funcionaron. Había escuchado cosas buenas y el almuerzo de hoy ciertamente no decepcionó. Tuvimos un almuerzo de 2 platos y elegimos un plato principal y un postre en lugar del combo de plato y plato principal más convencional. Los goujons de pescado estaban muy bien cocinados y presentados, el chasseur de pollo también era excelente. Fautless de hecho. Para el postre más cose los buñuelos de plátano con helado de almendras, esto fue increíble. Mi suegra eligió la tabla de quesos que no pudo terminar. El costo fue excelente, solo 28 para un almuerzo fantástico para 4 personas. El servicio fue atento, profesional y cortés. Bien hecho UHI The Sheiling. . . . ustedes son ganadores

Estuvimos en Gairloch durante una semana, pero descubrimos rápidamente que incluso en agosto este restaurante solo estaba abierto los viernes y sábados. Lamentablemente, el viernes cuando lo encontramos estaba completamente lleno. Llegamos a almorzar el sábado y tuvimos una muy buena comida en el restaurante. El primer miembro del personal con el que nos encontramos debe haber tenido resaca o ser nuevo, ya que parecía un poco confundida con las solicitudes muy básicas de almuerzo y no podía sonreír. Eso fue totalmente compensado por nuestra camarera que era encantadora, sonriente y hablador y muy eficiente. En general, recomendaría este restaurante pero definitivamente reservar con antelación.

Acabo de tener la comida más increíble (¡otra vez!) - tiras de ensalada de filete de res con aderezo de sésamo para comenzar, luego goujons de salmón con salsa tártara, papas fritas y guisantes para el plato principal - ¡guau! ! La carne se derretía en la boca y los goujons de salmón eran muy sabrosos, como una capa crujiente y la salsa tartar estaba llena de alcaparras. Es un menú fantástico a precios extremadamente razonables. El servicio lamentablemente lo decepcionó hoy ya que parecía un exceso de aprendices todos parados mirando mientras comíamos y nuestro camarero era un poco brusco.

Atrapado entre dar 3 y 4 estrellas. Todo el personal está aprendiendo, así que debes tenerlo en cuenta. La comida es buena, pero mi aguacate era ladrillo duro. Para 8 por 3 cursos, no me puedo quejar. Volverá

We finally visited this restaurant today, having spoken about numerous times, and we weren’t disappointed. We had a nice friendly welcome on arrival, and were pleasantly surprised with the menu. 2 courses for £6 was excellent, with a choice of 3 starters and 4 mains, which inc. chicken, salmon and lamb. Portion size was excellent and nicely presented. They also had a drinks menu, again very reasonably priced. Now that we’ve been, we most certainly will return. Well done all involved.

great service, presentation of food, and food quality. due to being a college training course located in a college building, atmosphere could be a bit plain.

Huge portions and quality well presented menu. Cheerful and helpful staff. Great setting over looking Loch Gairloch

Visited for first time today , Fabulous food and presentation. Amazing value .well done to all the students nice choices on the menu . Great service from Lewis a very polite and friendly young man nothing was a bother to him . I forgot to take photos of mains .

A really excellent lunch today at The Sheiling. Beautiful smoked haddock risotto followed by swordfish & linguine and the delicious vanilla bavarois for pud. Plus coffees/teas/herbal tea and all for £10.50! Hats off to the student chefs (who we could watch working on the live TV feed) and although the waiting staff we a bit nervous they were very pleasant, helpful and cheerful. Well done Inverness College UHI!

Our team Christmas lunch was at The Sheiling Restaurant at Inverness College UHI. Having become pescatarian this year, I went for the salmon. This was served with a wonderful giant prawn, new potatoes and a fantastic tasting seafood bisque. This was a remarkable dish and matched up to or exceeded those in some of my favourite eateries. The desert, a rich chocolate baileys mousse was full of flavour and texture. Colleagues went for the lemon sesame tart, with which they were equally impressed. The service was lovely, provided by increasingly confident students.

Had a wonderful Christmas lunch this week with the team. Chose the gluten free option, with no problems. Would recommend for lunch or dinner. Price is very competitive and quality is amazing. You forget that the people serving you and cooking are still Learning and attending the college to train.

We had a really lovely Christmas do at the Sheiling. I had a gorgeous broad bean salad and a rich shin beef casserole followed by a ‘just tart enough’ lemon tart. The restaurant was festively decorated and the service was excellent.

We eat regularly at the Beechtree Restaurant a t Moray College, which is also part of the UHI, and it was very interesting to compare the two. The Sheiling is part of a much more modern complex than the Beechtree and so has a much more up to date feel and we particularly liked the tv screen showing what is going on in the kitchen. We do understand that these are teaching restaurants and that the waiters and waitresses are just setting out in learning their trade and we do not expect perfection. Both restaurants serve absolutely top notch food at the best price you will get anywhere and we really couldn't say that one was better than the other. Where we did think Moray College came out on top is in the supervision and guidance of the servers. In the Sheiling we didn't see anyone who was helping the serving staff to learn from the experience and they seemed to be asking each other what they should be doing in terms of offering menus, taking orders and removing menus etc. At the Beechtree there is always someone in authority and of experience to offer guidance, where required, and we feel sure that this leads to a better learning experience for the young staff.

We went for 2 meals in one week on our recent holiday in Gairloch and were not disappointed.Food was very good, booking advisable. The only downside was one of the waitresses (who we were told had been there for some years) could do with a refresher on customer service. She obviously knew how to do her job but was very abrupt and never cracked a smile. The owner, who is also the chef, was very pleasant and it seemed a bit of a let down for him not seeing what was going on at the front of house. Would highly recommend

I've been going to the Sheiling Restaurant ever since the new college opened and previously when it was run from the old building. Had some of the best meals I've ever eaten here for prices you wouldn't believe. They open on a Thursday night too which is great if you're seeking top quality food before catching a movie at the cinema.

Fantastic opportunity to try something you wouldn't normally without breaking the bank. Great service and Food.

I go here fairly regularly as it's very good value and it usually has differently styles of food week to week.

From personable, professional student staff to elegant, economical meals, the Sheiling is our new favourite lunch spot. We each had two courses (for just £7.50/person!) and every dish was skillfully presented and absolutely delicious. Spread the word!

Had a wonderful goats cheese starter, followed by perfectly cooked and dress salmon fillet. Fresh coffee provided a great finish to our lovely lunch.
