The best restaurants in Scotland

Brilliant place. The couple who run it are really friendly and happy to discuss the food and offer suggestions. We had venison burger, cajun chicken wrap and shared chips. Portion sizes are big and the food is delicious. The chips are great - much better than those served at Talla Na Marra. I've never seen a wrap wrapped the way it was - more like a crepe, but there was lots of chicken on it as well as cheese, onions and salad. Really tasty. Venison burger was huge and melt in the mouth. Add 2 cans of pop and it came to less than £20 for a filling, hot, tasty meal. Couldn't recommend Island Bites more highly.

Saw through the window that they did pies. We wanted something "simple" with venison. They had a large Venison and cranberry pie ( and some beef burgers for one of us who wouldn't try the venison). Friendly service - offered tips on cooking the pie. The pie itself was just absolutely gorgeous - loads of venison and so so tender. Try it. Beef burgers were great as well.

EXCELENTE CAFÉ Y COMIDA FRESCA EN OFERTA. VOLVERÍA A VISITAR Y GASTARÍA ALGO DE MI DINERO GANADO AQUÍ CON ELLOS COMO SE LO MERECEN. 5 ESTRELLAS MASIVAS

One of the absolutely best kebabs in Scotland. Long open, fast and with really LARGE portions. Much advised for any hungry travellers in Lockerbie.

Fantastic cafe, this place is very clean and the service is first rate. I regularly call in for a cooked breakfast which is always delicious, and at under £5 including tea or coffee plus juice and toast represents excellent value for money. Homemade soup and toasted sandwiches are also excellent, this place is well worth a visit.

Tony and his cousin are such kind generous hosts. The coffee blend is perfect. Cappuccino and lattes are so tasty and refreshing. The home baking is phenomenal. I'd say the scones are the best in Scotland. The lunch panini and sandwiches are so fresh and tasty. The attention to detail for service is exceptional. Plum crumble cake, pineapple cake, brownies and the savoury cakes are delicious. It's not well sign posted but its next door to Coop Funeral home and across from the Butchers.

I’ve travelled the world and eaten ice cream everywhere. Lived in Paris. Regular visitor to Italy. Grew up in Glasgow eating the stuff all the time - in cafés, in restaurants, out of vans in the street with raspberry sauce. Spent a month in the USA making a film about the rivalry between Haägen-Dazs and Ben & Jerry’s. Consumed tons of their products on that trip. Attended a seminar in Philadelphia with Arun Kilara, the most famous correspondence course ice cream making instructor - a Professor, no less - in America. I understand ice cream on a granular, scientific level, and on an emotional one. And no ice cream anywhere in the world (I’m looking at you, Luca’s) comes even close to the magical stuff you get at Cones & Candies.

Best coffee in town and lovely meals to be had, amazing customer-friendly atmosphere and customer service, you feel relaxed and at home whilst enjoying a lovely hot beverage and great company, I recommend highly and shall be returning, thank you for such a warm welcome :)

Unprepossessing outside. Lounge closed but public bar open & lively. Everyone seemed gobsmacked that we were walking the ACP. Even more that we'd swam both days, and amazed that I'd skinny dipped. Customers & barmaid pointed us to the beer garden, but in a friendly way. The BG was v basic, just a yard. But the beer was good.

What a great wee place. Lots of sandwich, baked potato choices all made to order. Ordered a tray bake which was an absolute joy 😊

Me encantó el ambiente. Fue muy realista y silencioso. Perfecto para salir con amigos o estudiar. Muy buenas vibraciones con la música de fondo y las decoraciones. La camarera fue muy amable con nosotros y charló con nosotros un rato. Gente muy agradable. Sus pasteles son realmente buenos, son muy sabrosos y se nota que están hechos a mano. Las mesas son grandes y los asientos cómodos. Hay mucho espacio. Muy buena iluminación natural, con grandes ventanales. ¡Definitivamente regresaré! ¡Recomiendo encarecidamente este lugar!

Very good cafe and friendly staff! It feels like home. I had a take away wrap and it was delicious. Home made ingredients make the difference when it comes to serve food.

Abbiamo apprezzato tutto!!! Persino un uovo diventa una ricetta gourmet incredibile in questo poso…..originale in tutto, 8 commensali di fronte agli chef in un atmosfera magica. In ogni piatto la personalità del giovane chef e del suo staff, esperienza unica Consiglio

Very friendly, welcoming spot. Run by volunteers in the community. Fantastic views of Loch Awe from the terrace at the back!

Bonito rolls were fabulous and chicken wings were loveley. Highly recommended, with very friendly staff. A fresh hot sushi spot in the perfect location 😋
