The Torridon Inn in Highland

We stopped here on visiting Torridon on the NC500 route and had a highland burger. Great place, dog friendly and very welcoming

Having visited before and living relatively close by , we decided to try out their evening service . The staff was welcoming and very friendly but slightly chaotic with numerous attempts by various staff to take our drinks order the moment we had the drinks menu in hand . The food was generally good although the promise of fondant potato with my venison was just that , a promise . The meal was served without notice that there had been a change to the dish . The venison was slightly tough but generous in size and the vegetables whilst being very well cooked was insufficient . My husband’s burger apparently was very decent . Attempts to have a look at the dessert menu took several attempts as our request was forgotten . Over all a decent evening and yes , we would go back . The restaurant just needs to be a little bit more polished. The meal for two including two mains , one dessert and two alcoholic drinks was £109 including a set service charge.

Parfait ! Cuisine d’excellente qualité on s’est vraiment régalés. Une de nos meilleures expériences en ecosse. Le service est attentif et à l’écoute. On n’avait pas prévu d’y aller mais ça aurait été dommage ! Recommandé à 100%.

Pre booked lunch for 13:30 on a Sunday. 1st time to The Torridon and thought the Bo & Muc would be a good experience into 'The Torridon way'. The restaurant was less than half inside and one table outside with a small group enjoying drinks. We waited 40 mins for our main course with apologies from the staff when the food was served for the long wait due to 'a busy afternoon' I had fish and chips my wife a Ploughmans. The fish and the chips were over cooked by a couple of minutes and were reasonable, but no more. The portion of the food on the plate did not present well, it looked incomplete. The 'mushy' peas had the best taste. The Ploughmans was poor value with no bread or crackers and 2 small pieces of cheese but it did 'fill the plate' Having been to many better country pubs which is what the Bo & Muc is styled on we decided not to look around the main hotel and the experience helped us to rule out a return visit to stay in the hotel. I have no doubt the higher end hotel restaurant will be a totally different experience and the bar area of the Bo & Muc would be a cosy winter hangout from the hotel, but but our experience was underwhelming and only average.

My experience at the Torridon hotel remains most memorable, it's my first time visit, the reception perfect and the meals ok. Behold the natural vegetations and peaceful scenery of the facility, having amiable staff who treats their guests as kings. Thank you Tonicha for treating me to a dinner at the Bo and Muc Restaurant, Dominique for your wonderful services and all others who made my stay fantastic. I love the Torridons.

A nonexistent choice if you are vegan or have dairy allergies. Over priced and pretentious. I settled for the risotto in the end and did get an alternative offer to the ricotta after pursuing it. The risotto was very oily and mainly garden peas and just acceptable on the salt front - close to over salty. It took an hour from our booking time to receiving food and we had arrived early for a drink. My companions had mixed offerings too. One returned to our accommodation to have a second meal as he was still hungry after a pork belly that was mainly belly fat. Disappointing.

Expensive but tiny portions are not what you want after a day in the outdoors of beautiful Torridon. In particular the accompanying vegetables were just a spoonful. Hardly the way to a healthy diet. The staff were good though.

Very disappointed in this restaurant. The atmosphere was stuffy. The staff continually tried to serve us food we didn't order ( suggest you put numbers on the tables ) , we ordered steak which was over-cooked and when we asked for mustard we were told there was none. They offered us ketchup instead! We felt it was over-priced for what it was, and when the bill came - it should have been £108 and they charged us £166! With no real apology or explanation as to why they had over charged us £58. We had hoped it would be one of our holiday highlights and instead was most certainly not.

During a recent stay at The Torridon - the hotel associated with Bo & Muc - we ate here twice. You can expect an upmarket pub menu with some local lagers and international wines. Dining options included fish, burgers, steak, etc. We found service a little hit and miss at times. But when we complained the manager on duty was very responsive. Prices are at a premium, but it's to be expected considering the remoteness of the location. If you're staying in the area, it's worth a visit if only to take in a drink.

Visited for an overnight on a walking weekend with my daughter. Tragically poor in every way, the food was overpriced and not of particularly good quality, Bread was not served with the soup which I brought to the waiters attention, this was acknowledged however still no bread brought to the table!,,… I struggled to eat the lamb as it was very fatty and the mashed potatoes were disintegrating into the lukewarm broth it was served in,,,,yuck! I left most of the main meal but was not asked why when the waiter removed the plates…….wine was as poor as the food and most of the bottle left, think I managed half a glass….found the waiters response to my ordering lamb instead of the venison on special a little patronising as it was a “ good climb down”🤷🏽‍♂️ We gave up here and decided not to order sweet! We left the bistro feeling dissatisfied and disappointed. Extra expensive pub food which did not reflect in quality or service. Needless to say we wouldn’t go back. On a mild plus the breakfast was fairly good.

We were booked in here the night of our 40th wedding anniversary but the menu was so expensive and limited it was impossible for either of us to choose something we would like to eat. My husband decided to take me 1hr drive to a local bistro so we had a special memory for our anniversary which the torridon hotel had destroyed! It is only recently I ve been able to talk about this . We had been telling everyone at home about how we were going to have a wonderful anniversary and it was totally destroyed !

Great food, incredible management. Been many times over the past two years, and this past 6 months have been especially impressive. Creative dishes and thoughtful service.

Le cadre magnifique est au rendez vous mais le contenu de l'assiette est déçevant. De la qualité mais en très faible quantité. En entrée 4 pauvres coquilles Saint Jacques et part de tarte au chocolat minimaliste. Nous avions une tableau ronde mais nous étions relégué au fond du restaurant sans fenêtre et isolés du reste des convives. Aucune décoration. Un distributeur de crème vide dans les toilettes. Pain payant comme souvent en Ecosse. Parking gratuit.

Bon restaurant (un peu guindé) Nous y avons dégusté des moules fumées. Une excellente découverte !!!

Lovely dining experience. Staff very helpful. I had the venison stew and my partner had the ribeye steak. Absolutely delicious. Did not disappoint.

Our visit here was enjoyable as the restaurant is relaxed with a friendly service. As well as the main menu there was a menu of special dishes. I selected a dish from the special menu and all food that was delivered to the table was well presented and had great flavour. Very close to comfort food. The highlight was the apple tarte tatin with rum and raisin ice cream. Service was also relaxed but professional at the same time.

We were staying in the Torridon for 2 nights and had initially booked one night in Bo & Muc and one in the main Hotel Restaurant (1887). We were so please with the meal and the ambiance in Bo & Muc that we changed our booking there for the second night. In summary the menu was good - something for everyone, the food was good....the atmosphere was very relaxed and enjoyable - plus the meal etc. was all reasonable value. Another factor - was Marianne (I think she's the manager).... who was just so nice...nothing was any trouble ...so a big thanks to her - she made the experience on both nights one to remember!

This is a review by Dick and Joe. Both the 1887 and Bo & Muc restaurants are a part of The Torridon, a hotel on the banks of Upper Loch Torridon, commanding spectacular views and rightly demanding attention for its stunning architecture. The fancier sounding 1887 restaurant was not open to non-residents, apparently due to staff shortages, so we opted for Bo & Muc where we were able to reserve online, and we later phoned to ask if they could fit us in earlier, which they duly did, and were very friendly on the phone. We ate on Friday 7th April 2023. The restaurant The website for The Torridon is chic and attractive and alludes to a level of quality which we simply didn’t experience through Bo & Muc. The restaurant itself is tucked round the back, in a separate, non-descript building overlooking the car park and well back from the loch. The bar area consisted of mis-matched tables and chairs, walls painted a brick-peach colour, a piano wedged into the doorway of the disabled WC and the general feeling that you’re sitting in a corridor not a lounge bar. The section where we ate was a sort of conservatory dominated by plastic plants and random objets d’art strewn along the window ledge, a trio of wilting roses on the table, fake candle and bland elevator music playing in the background. Inside, Bo & Muc was divided into a series of random rooms. Where we sat, ‘Rive Car Park’, there was a lot of empty space and very few tables making it feel more like a storage area. We found out later that this is going to become the new lounge area, but they’d been waiting some time for the new furniture – time enough to make this space feel less of a temporary afterthought. The food Dick had the Trio of Hot & Cold Smoked Salmon, Arcturus Pine Gin & Lime Cured, Citrus Jelly, Apple & Beetroot Salad (£12). Despite the fun names, this was average at best and the salad came with an overpowering garlic dressing which would be reprised in the main course. Joe opted for Haggis & Black Pudding Bon Bons, Parsnip Puree, Whisky Peppercorn Sauce which went down well with no complaints (£11). For mains, Dick had an 8oz Ross-shire Rib-Eye with Triple Cooked Chips, Roasted Vine Tomatoes, Garlic Butter with an option of Blue Cheese or Peppercorn Sauce (an exorbitant £40). It was ordered medium rare, and came well done, but not surprising as unlike any other rib-eye, this was less than a centimetre thick and would have been a nightmare to cook to order. The staff were extremely accommodating and came back quickly with another steak which to the chef’s absolute credit, was medium rare. It had none of the taste of a rib-eye, very little marbling and it was a hugely overpriced disappointment. They kindly waived the cost of Dick’s wine by way of apology. Joe had the Seabass, Smoked Mussel Broth, Leek Mashed Potato (£27), a chowder essentially, though just a little too much on the liquid side and grateful for the mashed potato to balance it up. Other mains to consider included Venison Casserole, Port & Juniper Berries, Rosemary Roasted Potatoes with Seasonal Vegetables (£25) and Cauliflower Steak, Cauliflower Puree, Honey & Mustard Dressing (£18) which was the closest thing a vegan could have eaten out of the entire menu, were it not for the honey. The service When we entered there was no front of house service, and though we got a smile from a passing waitress, it seemed to be nobody’s job to greet us. We wandered through three rooms before we found the bar and ordered drinks. Only in the bar area did anyone ask if we had a reservation, and we were told they were running to quite a tight schedule, so they’d call us through at 7:15pm. It would have been a good opportunity to hand us menus, maybe a bowl of peanuts, especially if they were in a rush. Our friendly waitress eventually called us through at 7:30pm and gave us the menu as we sat down. The barman serving us and waitress Meg were brilliant, very friendly and welcoming and they went as far as they could to compensate for the miserable décor and atmosphere and underwhelming, overpriced food. Verdict The website branding of The Torridon is trying hard to create an image of luxury, but it’s trading far too heavily on the waterfront buildings and the carefully commissioned photography. That kind of branding is only going to work in the long term if the experience rises to meet it. The reality of Bo & Muc is an overpriced menu of fairly average food that a gastro pub would offer for a fraction of the cost in a much more authentic and welcoming atmosphere. The waiting staff we encountered were worthy of four stars but sadly they couldn’t save the overall experience.

The food was lovely, the chef was able to accommodate for my food allergy. No complaints with the staff, very personable.

We come up to Torridon every year and stay in either Annat or Torridon. In the past we've always eaten in Bo & Muc at least a couple of times during our stay and always really enjoyed it (I've given previous reviews). We've also visited the gin and whiskey bar in the hotel and eaten at the 1887 restaurant too. It's always been a great experience, great food, great atmosphere and lovely staff. This year however we weren't able to eat in Bo & Muc or the hotel because we weren't hotel guests. All we were able to do is have a drink in the bar in the afternoons. We did this 3/4 times during our 2 week stay in Torridon but by the end of our stay I actually ended up feeling quite resentful about spending money there. The decision to only allow hotel guests to eat isn't very clear. I couldn't help but feel that this place has actually started to get a bit too big for its boots since featuring on BBC Amazing Hotels (we were actually at the hotel for an Archery lesson when they were filming the episode). There is an air of superiority about the place now which seems to account for a lack of effort and friendliness. It's almost as if they now rely on the fact that they featured on the TV show and that everyone who walks through the door should feel privileged to be allowed to experience it, even if that's for a drink! After loving this place for years, this year, I was disappointed and resentful. It's a shame they now dismiss those that probably helped them get to where they are now. We'll continue to stay in Torridon as it's absolutely stunning but I wouldn't even visit Bo and Muc for a drink in future. I shouldn't be made to feel like I'm lucky to be a customer, you should be grateful for your customers and those willing to spend their money in your establishment. Really disappointing.

My partner and I visited Torridon for a few days decided to have dinner one night at the Bo and Muc. Considering that the bar and restaurant are part of a 5 star resort, the food and service weren’t great. Several different servers brought us our courses and it felt a bit chaotic. The food was ok, I ordered steak which hadn’t been rested before serving as I ended up with the plate swimming with blood. Dessert was good, it was a bit of a wait though. The waitress kindly took one of the desserts off of the bill without prompting which made up for it. The bar is set on the Torridon estate but separate from the main hotel, there is a sign stating that dogs and those with “muddy boots” are welcome, but in the bar area only, meaning that you can’t eat there after a long walk. The tables in the restaurant are given to hotel guests as a priority, which is fair but means that those in the local area (including those that live in the village) miss out. Overall it was ok, but having seen the hotel featured on the BBC, it didn’t meet our expectations.

Dined here rather in the main hotel restaurant, here is more of a gastro pub atmosphere rather than that of a dining room. Very friendly staff and excellent service. After tackling the magnificent version pie could not manage a dessert! Really good, no problem with dining here again.

Ate here twice whilst staying at The Torridon Hotel, as we didn’t fancy the menu in the main restaurant on the first night and the restaurant was closed on the second night (which we knew in advance of our arrival). Both meals were lovely, friendly staff and tasty meals. Relaxed atmosphere and ample choice on the menu. We also called in for coffee and cake at lunchtime, on the day of our departure - hot chocolate, coffees and cakes were all fabulous and again - the staff were super.

Lacks atmosphere. Over priced, poor quality food. A 'Torridon Farm Burger' tasted like a very cheap supermarket burger.

Really disappointing considering it is part of a lovely hotel. Below average burger and service slow. Starter arrived before our drinks. Would not recommend unfortunately.

Hubby had the burger and I had the venison. Very good food. The surroundings are rustic but comfortable. The service was super.

We ate here while staying in the area as part of our Honeymoon Tour of the Highlands - good food, great whisky selection and great staff. Will come again!

Nearly £20 for a burger? A very ordinary burger at that, with a few chips and no salad/garnish/anything? (£18 plus an automatically added 10% service charge!). 4 options for main courses on the menu, no specials? No vegetables anywhere to be seen? I've been visiting...

Have to say that this was possibly the most disappointing meal we had in three weeks in Scotland. Very limited menu. In the event we went for the special of the day. Which was a rump steak with fries and salad. The steak was fine...

Bo & Muc is the casual dining restaurant at the Torridon resort. It is very friendly and the food is good, based on a relatively restricted menu. The service generally was good and there is little to criticise. The only comment really is that visually...

Had the excellent venison and haggis pie, which was full of lovely tender meat and well- balanced flavour. Came with mash and tiny amount of veg - could have done with double the amount of veg really. Steak and chips very good and with an...

A 40 minute drive to discover the suggested menu options on the website were not on offer. I understand it is early season but if you are open then you are open! The menu was limited to a scotch egg, fish and chips, soup, quiche...

We had a very enjoyable and tasty meal here, with great service too. The bar area with the log fire was very welcoming too for a pre dinner drink

Wonderful dinner. Locally sourced produce, beautifully cooked and presented. Our waiter was Brad who was second to none. He was fantastic and made our dining extra special.

Unless you want to drive there is little choice at the Stable on the Torridon ground. Dinner at the main hotel is fixed at 75pounds, no menu. Reservations are needed. The choices are good and serving sizes are moderate plus. Wait staff due to covid...

A nice restaurant well situated with beautiful views. Food was well cooked but now always well described so you weren't sure what some of the dishes would be like. This was especially so with the vegetarian dishes, which might have been very good but didn’t...

We had visited The Torridon a few years ago for lunch. At that time, the kitchen was having a gas supply issue and could only offer cold plates. The staff provided a good cold cuts, cheese and fish meal which we enjoyed in the bar....

Great spot for lunch. The location is stunning, much like the drive over from Skye, had a lovely walk round the hotel grounds before lunch. Food was top notch, and service really good too.

Visited the Bo & Muc, or Beinn Bar as it's also named, three times during a weeks stay in Torridon. We had drinks on two occasions after coming off the hills, once in one of the front facing conservatory areas and the second time in...

Eat at the restaurant 3 days out of the four we stayed and had breakfast for all the stay. food was excellent and all the staff were polite and service was quick. cost was about right.

This was walking distance from our air bnb  (Brownhill house which was perfect and highly recommended) but you do need a tourch for walking back. Total darkness and great for seeing the milky way. First night we had Burgers with extra bacon and blue cheese....

As part of the Torridon this has the potential to be brilliant. In my opinion the food quality could be better, it feels too much of a gap from the main torridon hotel to be part of the same complex. The food is ok, standard...

Stopped here and had a quick bite. This is the off site part of The Torridon Hotel. It has a good reputation and it was good value but can be expensive dependant on what you choose. A quick crab salad & chicken livers cost 31...

We had a lovely lunch at the Bo & Muc. Lovely atmosphere and decor in the restaurant and the service was fantastic. Food was really delicious, only slight complaint was that two of our party ordered lamb for main which was a little cold, in...

We had an early evening meal here. Service was outstanding and staff incredibly friendly. A good range of options. The fish and chips were exquisite. Lovely setting but you must book in advance.

My husband and I stopped here for lunch. We had to pre-book as it was VERY BUSY when we went. The actual restaurant is not huge but there is a neighbouring bar and fine dining restaurant available on site also. The food was on the...

After a hard day in the hills, this place was such a dream. It had everything. Outstanding coffee, amazing tray bakes, thirst-quenching lagers and to top it off, one of the best meals I’d ever eaten. I had the Torridon pork belly, with a HP...

Great meal as a treat on our trip around the NC500. Booking was easy and on the evening we went the staff were all so friendly and helpful. Fantastic food and great to know that lots of the produce used is locally sourced.

Good value delicious food, with a nice atmosphere and very kind and attentive staff. No complaints at all!

Decidedly below average is the nicest thing I can say. The atmosphere is not particularly nice, has the fee of a cheap pub. Cleanliness was average, which, considering it is affiliated to a five star hotel, it is pretty disappointing. I ordered the least offensive...

Love this place. We, 3 mountain bikers, went for dinner then lunch the following day. Excellent selection of local beers on draught served with knowledge and enthusiasm. Superb food menu, great atmosphere and even better service from the wonderful staff. The whiskey menu is the...

We were forward to our dinner after driving past the Torridon Inn and seeing the spectacular views. Unfortunately we could only get a seat outside where the outdoor heater did not work and you had to press it ever 10 minutes to barely turn on....

We had a fantastic time at Bo&Muc. We stayed for 2 nights in a family room in the Stables. The staff were exceptionally attentive and friendly and created a relaxed atmosphere which we all thoroughly enjoyed. The food was great - the menu extensive enough...

Only disappointment of our stay at The Torridon was our dinner at Bo & Muc, where the food was pretty average - the steak pie sauce/gravy was extremely watery, so the beef within tasted like it had been boiled. Staff were friendly enough, but being...

While staying in the Stables we had dinner and breakfast here. Dinner was good with a full menu. The drinks menu is vast with a great selection of cask beers. we also had a lovely breakfast with the smoked haddock a real treat

If I could, I’d give the restaurant 3.5 stars as it wasn’t a bad experience at all but it has potential to be amazing. The setting was lovely in the grounds of The Torridon and the staff were exceptional, very knowledgeable about the menu and...

We were very disappointed in our visit. Menu not only very short, but odd. Burgers were of the fast food variety & chicken dry and flavourless. Pie served without any vegetables. All extras. Served very well, but it's the food that counts.

As we were spending two nights at the hotel we decided to come here for dinner on the first night. Came early for drinks and slightly taken back that they don’t do cocktails. Champagne it is then! My scallops and tiger prawns starter was fairly...

We had a fabulous meal after a long day cycling in the hills. The service was first class and the suggestions for wine hit the spot perfectly.

Friendly upmarket pub style restaurant. The service was find, and the food typical of this style of place, good but nothing to write home about.

Not what I expected. Made a booking thinking that this was part of the hotel and was disappointed to find that this was a separate location. Food was average and a number of menu options were not available. Food was standard pub fare, nothing special....

A day in Torridon and around the Applecross peninsula culminated in dinner at Bo & Muc - none of us have eaten out that much in the last 16 months so the whole concept of indoor dining is taking some getting used to again. The...

I loved the layout of the restaurant- it appeared to be modelling a pub style. The staff were friendly and the food was brought quickly- maybe a bit too quickly (however that is a personal preference and was not considered when completing the rating) We...

The food was very poor. Ate here last year when it was excellent, scallops, risotto etc. This year forced to eat burger and steak pie of poor quality.

We were staying in the hotel which was lovely, but didn't want the tasting menu so were directed to the bistro. The steak & Ale pie which I had was amongst the worst I've ever had. The crust had been put on as an after...

I dined in Bo and Muc for the evening and found the menu choice to be on the limited side. I'm not sure if this is a result of the remote location or due to any Covid issues. My crab toast starter was fairly average...

Stopped for lunch and initially liked it. The positives - nice place, very good service and my wife had an excellent fish & chips. It was very tasty, well cooked with nice fish and a generous portion. I had the hake fillet, which was a...

Top service and excellent food and drink! Ate outside with a view of the Highlands, cant recommend highly enough.

We booked this thinking it was part of the Torridon hotel but found it in a separate unit behind the main hotel. The food was pub fare and nothing exceptional, it seemed pre prepared and not fresh. The staff however were very helpful and welcoming.

Staff were great but I thought the menu was a bit limited. We both had the steak pie which comes with nothing else so had to order sides to go with it. Both of us had to complain the the filling of the pie was...

Did not look as good as the website from the outside. I am sure it would be better without the CoVID restrictions but it’s the same for everyone.

After slumming it in a camper van for 4 nights we decided to treat ourselves to a luxurious night in the Torridon Stables and a meal at Bo & Muc. Best decision we made whole trip. The staff were very friendly and attentive, the feel of the restaurant was relaxed in comparison to the fancier restaurant in the actual hotel, and the food was absolutely delicious. A little pricey for a casual dining experience but I think the quality of the service and food completely made up for it. Because of Covid restrictions we weren’t allowed to have a drink inside, however the staff are very helpful and will arrange for you to have drinks in your room or sitting outside with as beautiful view of the hotel itself while the sun sets and the bats fly overheard. Bliss!

We read the other reviews on TA and decided to book lunch. My wife ordered a whole lobster which the waiter informed her would come with a salad. My wife should have asked if the lobster was served hot or cold but she did not. The lobster was served cold but was very good quality. Unfortunately, there were a few tiny pieces of shell in the meat that should have been removed by the chef when he/she partially cracked the claws. I had the ribeye steak which had a wonderful flavour. My only disappointment was that it was not as hot as it should have been. It wasn’t cold but but could’ve been warmer. Despite these small niggles we enjoyed our food and the service was very good. We would probably return.

Just excellent! I'm not keen on fussy/stuffy dining so Bo & Muc was perfect for me. They even have a sign saying muddy boots and dogs welcome..The food is ace and reasonably priced (£15-20 for mains) and you taste every ingredient. It's all fresh and genuinely good. Salmon one night cod the next and they were both superb. All the staff are fantastic, welcoming and professional and Beatrix who was our waitress was excellent.. You should go there.

Always a favourite for us on arrival at The Torridon. So relaxed with a wonderful warm welcome. Haddock and chips to die for!!

We have been coming to Torridon for the last 3 years (just can't get enough of the place!) We stay just down the road from The Torridon Hotel (of which Bo & Muc is part of) and always drop into this place a few times for either lunch or dinner. They have a great choice of food and drinks. The food is always really good as is the service. It's a cosy place with a fabulous atmosphere (even in these strange pandemic times). I wouldn't hesitate to recommend a visit for lunch or dinner. You won't be disappointed.

We planned in advance and made a reservation for Sunday lunch a couple of days up front. We'd seen The Torridon Hotel on TV and wanted to go see it 'in the flesh.'Bo & Muc is the hotel's pub/bistro restaurant that's separate to the hotel. The decor - lovely, the tables all well spaced, the staff - all welcoming, smart and the whole place had a lovely casual vibe. The menu - lots to choose from. Starters tried and recommended - wild mushrooms on toast, really delicious, fishcakes - just as good. Mains - chicken, leek pie with a mashed potato topping and side of cabbage/bacon slaw. My other half had the burger (meat source there at The Torridon). Quality of the food really good. We forced ourselves to share a pud - not sure when we'll next be this way - it was worth it - the ice-cream sundae - chocolate, ice-cream- all the great things you'd expect. Tables available outside too - brill on a dry day - lovely views across the hotel front to the awesome scenery across the Loch.

Bo and Muc is part of The Torridon Hotel, we were greeted with a warm welcome from the superb waiter and shown to a table before going for lunch.Beautiful relaxed setting and immaculately decorates with beautiful personal touches.Food is good sized portions and super tasty. Service is excellent and attentive, would highly recommend to book ahead as there must have been 3 or 4 groups turn up without a booking and had to be turned away.

Being greeted by a large fan at the door was strangely quite a unique relief as it kept the midges outside!Once inside the friendly atmosphere and attentive staff was comforting. The food selection was good and the quality of the food was excellent. The wine list was impressive and we were tempted to stray into the whisky bar afterwards.Highly recommend this as a great place to eat without any pomp.

This pub/ bistro is an annex to the beautiful Torridon Hotel. We started off in the main hotel for a Gin and Tonic in the beautiful grounds, and took the dogs on a marked trail to the boathouse . We than walked around to Bo and Muc , where we had booked . Dog friendly too . The service and food were both excellent . Would definitely recommend .

We are regulars at the Torridon . The Bo and Muc provides great standards of bistro food with some lovely seasonal specials . Great care has been taken to ensure staff and customers are safe in these unusual times . What stands out is the fantastic atmosphere the team create despite these additional demands . The guys managing front of house and their team do a fab job . Thank you

We arrived at the hotel as we didn’t know where it was, the hotel is lovely with beautiful location and grounds. Staff kindly pointed us round the corner and through the stables to the pub. It’s a bit bland from the outside when you have just walked round from the hotel but it’s comfortable and modern inside.Service was very professional with personality. Food was tasty, well presented and good value for money. The menu is a little generic and perhaps a few more specials would be welcome.Would certainly return and well worth a visit. Will skip breakfast to make more room for the Tunnocks Ice cream Sundae!

What a difference a year makes, well a couple to be precise.My wife & I have been going here over the years, from a beer/meal after a long day on the hill to a leisurely day & a coffee.I believe I complained the last time we dined, the food was not good, the staff were rude & unhelpful.I had read about the renamed venue & as we were staying at Shieldaig I decided to book a table for the evening, in fact we had been walking that same day & decided to call in for lunch & see what we had let ourselves in for as previously had a sour taste. We ordered sandwiches which were gorgeous, more so were the 2 young ladies serving, very very polite & couldn't do enough.We arrived for our evening meal, oh my word, all we had was beautiful, from the starter through the desert (pictured), all of the staff including I believe the French Manager were very attentive & helpful. I/we cannot praise enough.Hopefully this will continue for years to come.Thank you. You all deserve the accolades you will receive.

We ate here on a few occasions during our stay at The Torridon and only had great meals. They offer pub classics cooked very well as well as daily specials featuring local, fresh seafood and meat. One evening we had the mussels with garlic butter and the steak, both of which were incredible and cooked so well. The staff are friendly and helpful. Couldn't recommend Bo & Muc more.

The food was excellent and with an extensive menu featuring a lot of very locally sourced ingredients. Service was attentive and friendly and made us feel very welcome.

Good to be back. Following the lockdown we booked accommodation in the area but were sceptical about the restaurant following terrible service 18 months ago. However the ‘new’ staff were excellent front of house Simon from France is first class impeccable service, attention to detail and friendly. Another gentleman from France and a young lady from the Czech Republic are a great team complementing the surroundings and great food.

We had a pleasant late lunch/early dinner at this lovely out of the way setting. Food and service were good. We would definitely return.

A lazy chef if you are vegetarian. Mains; Macaroni Cheese or Spices Cauliflower Cheese. I opted for a burger which was not a burger at all but separate slices of squash, halloumi, beetroot and mushroom placed on top of each other. The wair=er could only deal wit menu items so asking for the burger with other vegetables instead of the bun was beyond him.They did move us when the pipes "music" could not be turned off to a quieter table after some minutes and an assertion that all other tables were too small for out group of 5. It was not.

Stayed for a night at the Torridon Inn this week, really nice room, very comfortable and well appointed room, excellent breakfast and very welcoming staff. Great place to stay. Oh yeah, and the views are stunning!

We stayed at The Torridon Inn for two nights and I honestly couldn't recommend it enough, we are already looking forward to returning in the summer.Lovely big rooms with a huge comfy bed which Skye made herself at home on very quickly (cheeky). Food was delicious, breakfasts were large, quick and brilliant. Dinner meals were fantastic, we had the. Chicken and haggis pie which which was deceivingly big, and the burger on our first night both spot on and on our second night we had the scallops and risotto which was heaven and the lamb shank which was huge and delicious.However my real five star reviews go to the staff, especially Jamie the bar tender and Shane the French waiter with the impressive moustache were beyond fantastic and completely made our stay with being so friendly and accomdating and going above and beyond for us, thank you to them.Can't wait to return.

Went to the restaurant with my husband, daughter and a family friend on Saturday 15th February 2020 whilst staying in Torridon for a long weekend over half term holiday. The others had the fish and chips, but I had the scallops, which were priced fairly expensively I thought at £22. However it was a bit of a treat, so I decided to have them as I love seafood and the West Coast is famed for it. It seemed to be a good quality establishment so I had no worried about hygiene or food poisoning. How wrong I was! When the meal arrived it was presented nicely on a bed of risotto with spring onions and heart-shaped venison chorizo, which must have been left over from Valentine's Day, I thought. Now I wonder if the scallops were left overs as well? There were three huge ones in the plate, and although I was slightly disappointed with the taste (they were slightly bitter) they didn't seem off. We ate early, at about 6pm, and I didn't have anything to drink except water as I was driving. The next morning about 6 am I woke up and was violently sick every hour for about the next five hours, followed by diarrhoea. I've had food poisoning before so I know what it's like, and those scallops were the obvious culprit. I don't know of any bugs going around at the time, either. It completely ruined the rest of my holiday. I wanted my husband to go back and complain for the sake of other customers who may also get ill, and because £22 is quite a lot of money to pay for the privilege of being sick, but he said that we can't prove it was the scallops and it would be my word against theirs. He didn't want to argue for a refund. Now I want to know if anyone else was ill from scallops around that time and to urge people not to risk their health by having them. I'm so glad I didn't give any to my daughter to try. I don't usually post on trip advisor but I felt I had to this time. It's a shame as it seemed like a nice enough restaurant, if a bit pretentious.

We ate there twice and ordered the same thing both times. Guess that says a lot about what we thought of it.I had the Scottish Haddock and Chips. Huge piece of cod and excellent, crisp chips (fries). My wife had the Maccaroni & Cheese. Sounds basic but this was excellent, with a great sauce and covered by browned cheese and bread crumbs.Very reasonable price particularly compared to the fine dining restaurant (complete with dress requirement) at the main, Torridon Hotel next door.Very pleasant wait staff. Just a generally good experience.

Staying a couple of nights to celebrate a friends 40th the Inn was perfect spot to explore nearby walks & countryside. Rooms were lovely with big comfortable beds, luxurious toiletries & yummy biscuits.The pub served good food in a warm atmosphere and the hotel next door had stunning views & extensive whisky/gin bar to while away the afternoon playing games & warming toes by the fire.Brilliant value for level of food & service we had - thoroughly recommend the trip

couple of pints of good beer... an open venison sandwich and a smoked salmon salad simply prepared dishes allowed the flavours to show themselves off... nice spot for a mid day snack

Repas à six (2 adultes et 4 enfants). Parfait. Les plats étaient très bons et le personnel accueillant. Ambiance décontractée. Endroit idéal si vous séjournez avec des enfants. Je conseille en particulier la Pie de gibier, un délice.

Food was very hit or miss this time.Our 1st meal was fabulous but the rest of the food we had was very disappointing. One special fish meal was swimming in a strange seafood sauce that killed the dish.To be honest I expect better from the Torridon Inn.The menu is very limited & doesn't have much seafood for being next to the sea. The staff are the real stars of the show. Roddy playing on the piano & singing inbetween serving & looking after the tables & Scott in the bar had the banter.

Ate here many years when it was a different incarnation, place has been remodelled and has gone more up market. Service is fine, food that 2 of us had was distinctly average and a tad overpriced.

Visited for lunch and shared a seafood platter of mixed smoked fish and pate with olives, gherkins and salad. Helpful staff, good coffee, good value and nice atmosphere. Nothing to fault!

Food was really bad here. Don't order the Caesar salad! The dressing was just mayo... With the driest chicken I've ever had. Couldn't finish the meal. Husband's burger was sub par.

Confusion and sporadic service here.
