Lovely café with lovely staff. The food and coffee is excellent, but a little pricey. They have some really nice cakes and pastries also.

This cafe is at the foot of the funicular railway (which is currently out of commission). After an early morning walk on Cairngorm we were in the mood for bacon baps. They were delicious! A window seat gives fantastic views and we were lucky enough to see such rare birds as Snow Buntings and Ring Ouzels.

Det er et stort lyst lokale på 1. etage indrettet med de moderne franske Tolix stole. Der kunne ha´ været en fantastisk udsigt over Cairn gorms hvis ikke det var for to store containere stablet ovenpå hinanden.

We stopped in here whilst at Cairngorm Mount. It was a bitterly cold day but the staff were warm and welcoming. Great, hearty soup to warm you up and the chips and curry sauce was amazing. Looked like a small portion but very filling. Well priced too. Nice to relax for a bit after a walk and enjoying the amazing view.

Went up the mountain on a cool wet afternoon and popped in for a bowl of hot soup and a coffee. It didn't stop the rain but my goodness it felt better. Nice staff and delicious soup. Not dog friendly which is a shame.

Adequate for cuppa/snack but too noisy to spend low here. Cakes all nice and staff worked quickly to keep the queue down (which was at times pretty long!)

There's been a huge change in the atmosphere on Cairngorm Mountain since the current management (Natural Retreats) took over. Such a shame as its located in a beautiful position and should be teeming with customers. As we entered a couple leaving told us "not to bother" - we soon saw why. Sadly disinterested staff (watching a video on their phone behind the till) and rather pricey offerings - all in all not very inviting. The adjacent shop has some nice stuff for sale but most of it is ruined by the words "Natural Retreats" which seems to be plastered over many things on sale. We didn't purchase from the cafe or the shop in the end and left feeling disappointed.

Went up to the Ski Area for a look at the Skiers/Boarders and went here for coffee and cake and was very surprised as it was actually very good. My only gripe was the door leading into the Restaurant constantly banged, so it would be good if they put a spring or other mechanism on it

My partner & myself were luck to find 2 spare seats to sit down for food at 1130. The jacket potatoes and salad were tasty and also really enjoyed the apple strudel. Cannot fault the hot chocolate with marshmallows and cream on such a cold day. Only down size was the price.

Under no circumstances choose to eat here. Bring a sandwich or just don't bother eating and save your money and your veins from the fat overload. Expensive and poor quality. Never eat anywhere if the specials board has Sausage Rolls and Portion of Chips as options.

Views were amazing, the place was clean and busy. Sadly when we arrived the kitchen was closed and only drinks and a couple of slices of cake were left. coffee was okay standard starbuck's fare.

Dropped in on the way down from Cairngorm after a day on the hill. Just a couple of teas but very refreshing. Nothing special and a little expensive but the additional costs associated with the operating environment justify a little extra - but maybe not this much.

Called in here as we were passing with the intention of just having a coffee, but then I saw the cakes - wow what a fabulous selection!! I had the biggest meringue I've ever seen and it was delicious. My husband had the spicy chicken sandwich and said it was really tasty with the perfect amount of spice (and he's fussy with sandwiches!)

You'll get great Coffee or hot chocolate served with a smile here. Decent sandwiches and soup and other dishes. The atmosphere is nice, in snowsports season the place is booming with those that have eloped off of the slopes, weary snow travellers!Cakes are lovely and there are gluten free options too, but not enough!

This is a very welcoming café when you've been outside on the observation deck at the top of Cairngorm admiring the amazing views! Even on the last day of July, and with several layers of clothing on, it was perishing outdoors, so it was so good to come inside for a Hot Chocolate and a Chocolate Brownie. The Brownies were terrific! The must do a roaring trade in hot drinks I bet!It is a self-service place, and was fairly busy, but there seems to be plenty room for everyone, as people are constantly going and coming back and fore up and down the mountain.

Although there is a variety of food available, we only stopped for coffee and cafes after travelling on the Cairngorm Mountain Railway.Starbucks coffee was served.

Stopped by for a light lunch. This is next to the station for the funicular railway. Light airy cafe, pleasant staff. Good range of normal cafe food plus fish and chips on offer. Starbucks coffee served. We sat outside in the sunshine soaking up the view and imagining what it would be like with skiers and snow ! Super spot. Although it is on the first floor there is a lift and a ramp so it can be enjoyed by everyone !

We used to enjoy a trip up the mountain to the restaurant,looking forward to the fire, a beer and some food. Now it's just a big shop with a bare canteen style cafe.

I love Starbucks so nice to see it in Aviemore - I had a Hot Chocolate to heat me up. All the rest of the food is non-Starbucks. Try the Caramel Shortcake - its deliscious!The Store House is slightly hidden (well it was to me!) In the building next to the Funicular Railway, there is a shop on the lower floor and then upstairs there is a cafe, this is it. You can also access via the side door in the space in-between this building and the Funnicular Railway.The service isn't great, we had to wait at the counter until 2 staff members finished their casual conversation before we were served and they continued to chat in-between serving us. The when seated at our table the waitress was clearing a table and dropped a fork across the floor which hit my foot. She left it there for 20 mins before returning to pick it up. In the time we were there the tables were very slow in being cleared which made the cafe look messy

During our week long visit for snow sports this place offered a welcome rest between some the runs.There is plenty of choice whether its a cake and drink or a warm lunchtime meal and given the captive audience the prices were not as extortionate as i fear they could be.Used this place everyday and although at times it is busy there is a quick turn around as people head back to the slopes and seats always seem to be available.

Lacks all the charm of it's predecessor. Clinical and drab, not a patch on how the mountain used to be after a hard day on the slopes. Better off getting lunch at the top...not worth hanging about for a pint after. Getting yourself into town would be a better option in one of the pubs with more atmosphere at a cheaper price. Missing the banter, the PORTION OF CHIPS ONLY and general everything about how it used to be at the bottom of the hill. SOULLESS!!!!

We stopped off here on our way to Glasgow, as we had some Cairngorm vouchers to use in the shop.We had a quick breakfast in the cafe and it was lovely. It's recently been done up and it looks really nice. Much better than it was previously. We only had a bacon roll and a coffee but the bacon was cooked perfectly and the rolls felt very fresh. Having breakfast with those views should be a daily occurrence!

Visited the mountain resort earlier this year and had Iunch at The Storehouse. I have to say it was fantastic, the menu was varied and the quality of the food was what I would expect from a top class restaurant, not what you usually get in a ski restaurant. It was all freshly cooked utterly yummy and just what you want when coming in from the cold, some good wholesome comfort food.!

We all had Sunday lunch (£22), service was good and waitress was friendly. However the Roast dinner was lukewarm, the beef was far from tender and the Yorkshire pud was clearly reheated and very greasy. The bar wasn’t able to provide many of the beers/lagers on tap. Altogether a very disappointing visit. We were here last year and I still remember The Venison I had. Clearly new management/chef. Definitely give it a miss.

No food on offer other than crisps, ice cream and a meagre offering of cake, shocked as we were there for a 1pm show and had travelled over an hour thinking we would be fine for lunch at the theatre. Staff were fine, no hint of getting things done in a timely fashion and not much interaction with customers. Decor is depressing, such a big space makes it cold and echoey. Just no atmosphere whatsoever. Very disappointed and won't be back.

Avoid this place . Poorly cooked frozen fish and staff who see you as sn inconvenience. They add a 10% service charge and offer rubbish service.
