The best restaurants in Scotland

We were staying just down the road in Tayinloan and saw this place as we passed by. We promised ourselves a visit and we have loved it. Great staff and great food very friendly guests in the restaurant and it’s dog friendly! The view is mesmerising we loved every bit of it! Thank you. We hope to return before we head south again!

Had a fantastic meal at the Jockey Club, everything ordered was delicious and service was excellent. Great value for money and great setting, will definitely be back and would 100% recommend!

I arrived here wet and tired. I had a lot of luggage. Biata, the manager was so kind. She stored my luggage for me till I could get into my hotel, and she also printed off all my flight info! So unbelievably kind! The other staff were so lovely too. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was lovely with beautiful art all around. I highly recommend a visit!

Writing this on behalf of my mum Sadie, and Auntie Sis from The Plains. They have a lovely time yesterday in your place. Food was amazing and they loved catching you with you. Maybe see you again sometime x

Fresh and yummy Scottish fare. We stopped here on a whim and found it to be charming and clean with excellent food at a good price

Very friendly service, nice selection of gifts in the little gift shop and the coffee is served as you like it! Recommended! 😄👍

Very enjoyable meal. Had chicken strips and veg with side order of chips. Very tastey. Waitress very helpful and friendly. Restaurant very clean and tidy.

Got served eventually by staff after they came over was seated. Asked if we wanted drinks, I said Yes explained what we wanted. Brought drinks over. 20 mins later waitress came over "what you want then" gave order over then 25 mins later was brought over. People had came in after and got food and drink. before us.

Best bagel!!!! This was the best lunch ive had in aberdeen for a long time the bagel was tip top will be going back again soon!

Lovely Sunday lunch for two. I had beef roast dinner. Decent amount of veg + meat with huge delicious Yorkshire puddings hubby had fish + chips. Both had starters too which were really good. Reasonable prices tool

This is one of our fave restaurants ever! Chef is superb! We have visited many times for the set menu and also tried the wine pairing. We are always super impressed by the flavours and excitement of each course. The black pudding bread is the best in the world haha! Decor isn’t quite fitting the ‘fine dining’ description but it’s certainly unique. Perhaps a warmer, more intimate atmosphere would add to the ambiance and general impression. Service can be a little hit or miss, sometimes takes a little while to be noticed or receive drinks including top ups and last time we visited we couldn’t understand the waiter very well as he had a very strong accent. We also found the restaurant very cold and had to keep our jackets on which was a shame as we had dressed up for the occasion. We would LOVE if there was some sort of shuttle service to the city centre which would allow all parties to enjoy the gin/wine pairing. 5 stars because the food is to die for and with little tweaks this could be the best dining experience in Inverness.

Me detuve aquí mientras lavaba la ropa cerca. ¡La gente que trabaja aquí fue increíblemente amable! Tengo un delicioso café con leche y tostadas con huevos. Todo es extremadamente fresco! Muy recomendable!

What a sweet little cafe - we loved it! Make sure if you are in this neck of the woods that you also have a walk at the isle of Whithorn!

I’m surprised to see the food so well reviewed for this place. While the setting in indisputably spectacular, the food is well below standard. Greasy fish and chips, slow service and high prices. I know this is on an island and therefore difficult and expensive to source supplies but there’s no excuse for the poor quality of the food served. It really is Wetherspoons standard. The pictures of fine dining food on the Tripadvisor page are not representative of what is served. Come for a drink but eat elsewhere.
