This review is for the restaurant only! DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THIS RUDE STAFF!! We walked in around 18:30 to a 1/3 full restaurant. The lady asked if we were staying in the hotel and told us they were too busy since not staying in the hotel. In a small town where most restaurants are full and 45+ minute waits, they obviously don’t want your business. STAY AWAY!!

On an evening before our departure day out of Skye, we couldn’t find any place to dine in without a reservation. So we walked into this place and the lady who greeted us looked like she was forced to be at work. Seated us and took our order. We ordered four fish and chips, risotto and soup with few drinks. The soup and the risotto were sub par and we did not even finish 25% of the risotto. Fish and chips were just ok. This is probably one of the worst services and food quality on my trip to Scotland. Will not recommend this place at all. Go get a takeout of a pizza or fish & chips at chippy rather than go to this place.

Se restaurer à Portree relève d’une mission impossible. Nous nous sommes rabattus sur cet établissement qui était quasi vide. Nous avons opté pour une soupe en entrée , qui était bonne. En revanche, les plats manquaient de saveur et le fish & chips était tout simplement raté: fade, débordant de graisse et tout droit sorti du congélateur. Cela est dommage car l’ambiance sonore du restaurant était top !

There are only two stars here because I don't like being ripped off. This restaurant apparently believes that tourists are stupid, delirious zombies and don't know anything. We ordered 1/2 grilled lobster (as described on the menu) and got 5 scampis, for a price of almost 40 euros! Adequate for half a lobster, but not for 5 Sampis. In response to our complaint, shrug and ignore. Luckily we had mussels for starters which were good. What would the lobster have tasted like?! My conclusion: You should ignore such fools. Just on principle.

Trying to get food in Portree without a reservation in a restaurant is impossible. We were lucky enough to get a table here. Staff were slow and totally disinterested. Got out drinks order wrong, forgot my husbands soup which he never yet received and forgot to order our main courses until we asked several times how long our food would be. After we complained they deducted the starters and drinks from our bill. The food was good but the staff were absolutely atrocious.

Wow...what a seafood platter I had back in October! A feast and a seaside view made for an enjoyable meal after a day of touring magical Skye. I enjoyed a Cider (new vice taken home from Scotland) and finished off with a delightful sherbert and irish coffee. Reservations recommended. Climbing conveniently upstairs to my Royal Hotel room with excellent harbour view was a convenient bonus.

What an underrated gem! We had the nicest servers, everyone is so lovely! And the food portions are massive, and cost is standard for the area. The quality of food is impeccable. We ate at a “higher end” restaurant the night before and for the same cost we got a quarter of the amount of food. It’s all delicious- did the Cullen skink, mussels, and langoatuines. Just phenomenal. In addition to the quality, it’s the only restaurant we were able to get into at 630 pm. After spending an hour trying to find dinner on our honeymoon, this was a wonderful treat and we enjoyed our dinner here very much!

Nous avons été reçus gaiement par des serveuses de bonne humeur. Les moules "marinière" n'en étaient pas : ce sont des moules à la crème. Très bonnes et apparemment de la région (j'espère bien, vu la production dans le coin). Elles sont servies avec des pains à l'ail dignes du Pizza Hut. Mon compagnon a pris un Mac and Cheese, lui aussi servi avec des pains à l'ail...et des frites! C'était noté à la carte mais surprenant! Malheureusement son plat de pâtes était fort gras. Est-ce au goût des écossais? Nous sommes conscients que les fromages du coin ne sont pas aussi bons que les français et suisses mais là ce n'était pas ragoutant du tout.

We were booked, arrived on time and were shown to our table in the tianavaig restaurant. We were given menus and the waitress said 'ill be back in a couple of minutes to see what you want to drink'. Twenty minutes later we were still there without any service. I had to search for a waitress. Then I asked why were fish and chips not on the menu we were given. Answer - you can only get this in the bar. This is not what the website menu says. The prices were also higher on the menu than they were on the website. We moved to the bar (don't bother asking what that was like) and ordered. Forty minutes later and having been told by the (lovely) bar lady that the chef was 'overwhelmed' by orders, we got our fish and chips. I was too hungry to enjoy it quite frankly so a waste of time and money. We went to the chippy and had a carry out on the next evening which was delicious! (and much cheaper). I felt embarrassed for visitors if this is what they face (we are local).

The restaurant offered a variety of typical dishes expected to be found in Scotland. The soup could be thickened slightly to give it a creamy texture. The garlic mushroom was uniquely prepared with two slices of garlic bread topped with stir-fried mushrooms. The battered fish & chips looked appetizing when presented but when flipped over there were burnt bits. Similarly, the creamy chicken dish looked good when presented but some of the meat did not taste fresh.

We arrived in Portree quite late on a Saturday evening and given that most of the places weren’t taking people after 9pm, we were happy to find this place. It’s not super fancy but the service was good and the staff friendly. Meal was standard pub food and my husband and I both enjoyed our scampi & chips/fish and chips. Had some lovely Skye ale to go with it and dessert after, which was also delicious. We left stuffed and very happy!

For a restaurant to have such a prime location in portree, they obviously just rely on hotel accommodation. There is a reason why it is 29th best food from 31. How bad can 30 and 31 be? 6 of us rudely interrupted the staff on arrival from their private conversation to be shown to our table. Prices were not too bad but food quality and quantity were poor. I would have thought that with reviews being consistently bad that management would have done something over the years to help their business.

No tengo idea de cómo un establecimiento puede seguir comerciando cuando su personal es tan desinteresado en hacer su trabajo. No fuimos recibidos cuando ingresamos, y tuve que buscar a alguien para darnos algunos menús. No se exhiben alimentos en la puerta, y solo se sirven menús de bebidas en las mesas. Mientras estábamos sentados (durante mucho tiempo), esperando nuestra comida, vimos a 5 parejas pasear, echar un vistazo al menú de bebidas, obviamente tratando de ver qué platos están disponibles, y la camarera simplemente los miraba, sin ofrecerles un menú. ¡Las 5 parejas deambularon de nuevo! ¿Un amistoso "hola" la hubiera matado? ¿La administración se da cuenta de cuánto pierde el negocio debido a la capacitación deficiente del personal? ! Nuestra comida finalmente llegó y era comestible, pero en serio, ¿una ensalada sin DIENTES? (es decir, ¿algunas lechugas amargas y rizadas y algunas rodajas de pepino?) ¿En qué año vivimos? Esperé esto hace 20 años, pero seguramente su "chef" se da cuenta de que la gente espera un poco de aceite y vinagre, al menos.

Discutiré tanto la comida como la experiencia en general. Usualmente en mis revisiones, tiendo a no comentar mucho sobre el servicio a menos que sea sobresaliente, o en este caso, memorablemente por debajo de los estándares. . .Cuando llegamos, el lugar estaba casi vacío. Nos ofrecieron una mesa y menús con prontitud, pero luego nos sentamos y esperamos lo que parecían años (especialmente porque el menú era lo suficientemente corto como para no necesitar una reflexión prolongada) antes de que la camarera volviera a tomar nuestro pedido, incluyendo verla ocupada cerca con manteles y ajustes de lugar. Dije que a cada uno nos gustaría una hamburguesa, y nos dimos cuenta de que ella pensaba que quería decir que los dos compartiríamos un pedido. Así que aclaré, dos hamburguesas. Ella era agradable y esperaba que no pareciera dominante, pero me alegro de haber sido claro, porque compartir una comida por debajo de la media entre dos personas cuando ya es demasiado tarde para ir a otro lugar y comenzar de nuevo solo habría hecho la situación más tragicómica pero a la vez penosa. Lo único peor, supongo, habría sido si fuera totalmente incomestible. No fue así, pero realmente no creo que pueda recomendar este lugar a nadie a menos que casi todo el resto de la ciudad estuviera cerrado.Básicamente, nuestra comida fue adecuada pero decepcionante. Burger cocinó de manera desigual, pero no me matará. Ensalada ligeramente triste, húmeda o grasienta en el lateral. Chips probablemente lo mejor en el plato, pero sin condimentos y no nos ofrecieron salsa o condimentos de ningún tipo. La hamburguesa tenía algo de condimento, pero no mucho, y venía con un poco mísero frotis de ketchup que aún lo dejaba seco y no lo suficientemente salado. Hubiéramos pedido salsa de tomate (o cualquier salsa), excepto que nadie volvió a vernos hasta que hayamos terminado.No creo que estos restaurantes obtengan muchos negocios repetidos, sino que pueden confiar en la ubicación estratégica, la conexión con el hotel anexo y el horario de apertura relativamente prolongado en comparación con otros lugares en las inmediaciones.Redacté esta reseña en mi correo electrónico en ese momento y me doy cuenta de que al menos otras dos reseñas recientes dicen que todos los demás restaurantes cercanos estaban cerrados (aunque también me sorprendió que una persona dijera "Deliciosos restaurantes" y alguien más acudió allí dos veces). , aunque él nota que es porque él era un invitado del hotel.

Paul was excellent. Unfortunately he appeared to be running a busy restaurant almost single handedly. Our waiter could not tell the difference between a bottle of red wine and a bottle of champagne. Some of us ordered mussels for a starter, only for our waiter to return minutes later and advise us they had sold out of mussels and we needed to choose another starter. However we could still have mussels for a main course if we wished. The food when it arrived was actually reasonable tasting but cold and they were slow at tidying up after each course. The biggest problem appeared to be that Paul was having to do everything including chasing up our waiter. People were even queuing up to pay their bill at the end of their meal as only Paul knew how to work the card machine.

Upon entering my partner and I noticed the restaurant was mostly empty, we figured out why... When we arrived that waitress told us we could sit anywhere we wanted then it took her almost 15mins to make her way to the table. A man who looked more like a kitchen hand than a waiter came over and handed us an A5 sheet of paper which was "the specials" the paper was transparent in some places from what I can only assume was cooking oil. The dessert was the worst of it, they are serving what the Royal likes to call "Chocolate fudge cake" this was an artificially flavoured (cocoa powder not chocolate) sponge cake with a cheap chocolate source, I can be certain it was mass produced but I suspected it was, for The Royals sake I hope it wasn't make onside. Very disappointing for someone who was expecting fudge! My partner received a tiny slice of mass produced toffee cake, the kind that comes frozen in a tin foil tray. Both desserts were £5, such a let down. The food here would be acceptable if it was the price of crappy pub takeaway but the menu/prices imply a higher quality meal. When we made it to our BnB and told the host this story he said: "we avoid mentioning The Royal to guests." I suggested that from now on he warn them!

Had a meal here in November and the food was ok at best and to be honest thought it would be a lot better for the money I paid.The staff and service were a bit slow and looked as if they could not be asked, that aside the food was ok and would I go back again well maybe if the food matched it's high prices.this place could be very good if it changed one or two things as it get staff that want to make you feel welcome..

My Son and young Brother visited this island with a view to relocation, and we came across this Hotel purely by accident. Please do not miss the experience of the most wonderful food we have ever tasted. I do not know who the chef is, but he is wasting his talents here! We were only there overnight, but we were tempted to stay all week, just to taste the entire menu! Our family have been in some really top-class restaurants, but this has to be the best. Not to be missed!

I get a bit suspicious when you know you are buying the last room and, as you are told the amount, you get an askance look and a quizzical tone as they deliver the price. This hotel is well, OK. Clean and well located but pricey for what it is. The styling was retro '60s but not in a good way. Have to say though, the waitresses at breakfast were very friendly and the Haggis was just great.

Very slow service, slightly indifferent attitude from the staff. Food was ok, nothing to write home about though. This was the last resort, since all the other hotels we called at were fully booked and there was a huge queue outside of the fish and chip shop.

Paid £120 for a night It was a booking on the day though and Skye is very busy. You can always tell the quality of a UK hotel by its biscuits and this one has custard creams...If they had charged £80 I would not be writing this review. It is an OK hotel, good location and view, but very basic indeed.

We looked around the area and thought most restaurants/cafes were expensive then found the Royal and were well pleased with the service, quality and choice of food and the very reasonable prices. We returned the following night.

We ate here on 3 nights. The food was very good which is why we returned. The service was, however, very slow. If you are a hurry, this is NOT the place to eat!!

La stanza era spaziosa, ma l'ambiente in generale molto poco curato. Gli ambienti comuni e gli arredi denunciano con forza tutti i loro anni. Ha piu' l'aspetto di un vecchio ostello, piuttosto che di un hotel 3 stelle, ma il prezzo in agosto e' quasi da suite 5 stelle. Da non consigliare.

We had a horrible experience here last night. Despite pre-booking, we were told there was a "problem" with our table and we would have to sit in the cafeteria rather than the restaurant. Here, we experienced terrible and slow service, an awful atmosphere (imagine a fast food joint on a Saturday afternoon) and when the food eventually came it was damn awful. I had a salad and the leaves were visibly past their best; my partner had the mac and cheese - this was visibly overlooked, as was the accompanying garlic bread. I truly wish we'd gone to a fish and chip shop and sat out by the water. Don't waste your money here.

Once we got our meals, our waitress pretty much disappeared. It was clear that she and her two co-workers were stretched too thin between the restaurant and the bistro/bar. We waited forever to get our bill; eventually we walked up to the hostess area and asked to be helped, and even then we had to stand there for a long time while they figured out our bill and got our change. Very disappointing, seeing as we both enjoyed the food.

Felt like we were stepping back into the 60s/70s, but the service was friendly and we had a delicious Haggis and Neets

It was easy to end up here due to its location. Starters average mains were lovely. Service was slow. Price was too highfor what you get. Return ..No. There are better places to eat in portree.

This hotel doesn't look particularly great on the outside and the interior of the restaurant area looked a bit grim and could do with sprucing up a bit. However I can assure you the food was lovely, served by two really pleasant young ladies. It was inexpensive, hot, tasty and all four of us cleared our plates. We would definitely go there again when we revisit Portree.

We ate here twice during our stay in Portree. The menu was varied and everything we had was enjoyable. The langoustines special was delicious (although messy!). Service was friendly and just right (not over attentive but not waiting for ages either).

Despite the fact there were two ceilidhs on in town that night, I was lucky enough to snare a table for an early dinner at the Royal. Had excellent service and a very tasty steak.

Food and service was fabulous. A little pricey, but you get what you pay for. Great haggis and generous portions. Sticky toffee pudding was fab! We did not need a reservation.

The food was fresh and very good, service good as well, prices ok, unfortunatelly there is nothing to like about the ambiance. However not a bad choice when all the other places are full.

The place was fairly quite when we ate here service was quick and the waiter pleasant. The steak pie was very nice with decent portion sizes overall I would recommend this place for good value food.

High quality decor; comfortable. Excellent food, friendly service. Wide choice of sea-food dishes. Although on the developed side of the main road through Portree, there is still an enjoyable sea view. You might prefer to avoid a widow seat however - passers-by will almost certainly eye-up what you are eating before making up their own mind. But that would be the case in any pavement cafe in France, for example.

We used the place because it was recommended to go there for Internet services. Had a coffee, paid for the use of their WiFi as we needed a stable connection for working purposes. Two days later the rate had doubled(!), never any receipts. It seemed as if the lady at the desk wanted to make some extra money and worked into her own pocket and, seeing that we were returning, simple doubled her private income. We stopped using their service with that experience. Quite disappointed that a large place needs to take such actions and give guests the feeling of clearly being taken advantage of. The connection worked at least.

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.

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.

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.
