The best restaurants in Highlands and Islands

Esto fue justo al lado de nuestro aire estar y estar. Muy peligroso. Fuimos dos veces más de 3 días de estancia. Me gusta el helado, pero no lo como tan a menudo. Pero no podía pasar sin probar los sabores. El choc blanco era tan bueno como Ferrero Rocher. Mi hermana probó el gofre, que olía celestial. Todas las cosas buenas. El único pezoncito pequeño eran trozos de hielo aquí y allá, ¿lo cual no sé si es normal? ¡Imagina una colaboración con Perk Doughnuts! Marca registrada aquí 😊. Si nunca pasa, simplemente toma no 1 Donut de café Perk, canela original, y relleno con helado de chocolate de aquí. ¡Los chefs se besan!

Absolutely the best fish and chips in this area. Ig is a real treat and the service is always very friendly and professional.

We had a fantastic time at Flavour- the tasting menu was full of new ideas: locally foraged mushroom and seaweed, for instance. Great fish and really tender venison. Chris's enthusiasm as he explains what's behind each dish really shines through. They are planning to open for a few dates over the winter, so worth a check even if it's out of season.

First day popped it at 3.50pm, ordered coffee and cake, told to take a seat, items duly brought to table. Then someone from behind the serving area literally shouted at a group of older ladies that they needed to leave as "we are closing in exactly 5 minutes". I caught the waiters eye and mentioned he had just served me, the same disembodied voice "we close at 4pm sharp". 2 days later at 2.10pm I dropped in for a sandwich, took a seat, looked the menu, went to order to be told "kitchen is closed" I mentioned that it states food served till 2.30pm, "served yes but it needs to be made first so we stop taking order around 2.15pm". Maybe the food is good but I have yet to try it. Staff need some lessons in customer care, speaking to some locals it appears they are well know for the lack of customer service.

Your restaurant came highly recommended and the food and wine was absolutely superb. Unfortunately this is where the great experience ended as we have never been made to feel so uncomfortable in a restaurant by the people serving us, to the point that we couldn't wait to pay the bill and leave! We were the first table in the evening at 5pm and were seated right by the bar but we struggled to get eye contact with the staff who were either chatting behind the bar or staring into space. At no point did they ask us if everything was ok or if we wanted another drink. We tried to engage them in some chatter when they served us but to no avail. I don't know if in someway we offended them but we really could not work out what we had done wrong to be treated this way. Unfortunately we will not be returning, which is a shame as the food is excellent. Fortunately our evening was not completely spoiled as a visit to the local community centre in Nairn found us invited to a Ceilidh and a very warm welcome and fun evening.

Popped in today and managed to get a table as they were very busy so enjoyed our usual wonderful lunch. Always cooked to perfection and the famous "Richard's chips" were fantastic. They are dog friendly too so our wee pooch Alvah had a great time being petted by other visitors.

Love coming out here from Kirkwall. Delightful atmosphere and beautiful setting. Food is delicious and staff are delightful. The cakes and coffee are to die for. Highly recommended in my book. I'll keep coming back.

We stayed at Taigh Ailean for our trip to Skye. We also had the opportunity to eat dinner there (Breakfast was included with our stay.) The dinner was so delicious! The view is lovely as you can see the loch from the windows of the bar. All the staff is fantastic and so friendly! I had a great dinner and I would describe it, but the menu changes to suit what is in season and available from the sea. Whatever you get, I guarantee it will be the best! Make sure you call ahead and get a reservation as it fills up quickly. I know that they also have live music, which would be great, but we didn't have any while we were there.

Lovely friendly cafe with delicious coffee, great selection of yummy cakes and an excellent cooked breakfast. They do more but that’s all we sampled on several visits while on holiday! Highly recommend a visit

Lovely cafe. Very friendly service - cafe was busy but staff were unflustered. Twirl cheesecake was amazing. Lovely coffee too. Highly recommended.

Wir haben hier sowohl auf der Hinfahrt als auch auf der Rückfahrt zu Fähre auf/von den Orkneys einen kurzen Zwischenstopp und einen kleinen Imbiss eingenommen. Kaffee und Tee sind gut, ebenso die herzhaften und süßen Kleinigkeiten auf der Karte. Besonders lecker fand ich die schottische Fischsuppe (Cullen Skink), die ich auf der Rückfahrt gegessen habe. Eine sehr freundliche Bedienung muss ebenfalls hervorgehoben werden.

The tea wasn’t great and the staff member serving wasn’t interested in customer service. Not a great experience for my first visit after reading the positive reviews. Loads better places in the town.

From start to finish the visit was incredibly memorable and special. The food choice was staggering, the food yummy and incredibly generously portioned. The most abiding memory was the genuinely welcoming and friendly staff. BRAVO…….a must breakfast/lunch or coffee & cake stop on the NC500 !!!❤️Love Michelle & Jeff

Thomas and the team at Links are fantastic - food was fabulous - we tried the Cullen Skink and it was delicious. So was the Lasagne and the chicken dishes. Great value for money and definitely a 6 out of 5 score for us 👍 And the views are stunning too 👌

A very atmospheric place with delicious food and friendly service. You make a really cool band together. I will definitely come back here. 🙂
