The best restaurants in Eilean Siar Highlands and Islands

We’d heard about the Bistro but hadn’t visited until one Saturday when we called in hoping to get a late lunch. We had food which was so delicious. Rarely have I enjoyed a meal so much and I am recommending that, if they want to eat the most delicious food, prepared by a skilful chef, assisted by friendly staff and at a price that won’t break the bank, my summer guests need look no further. I only hope that there’ll be a table left for me! Well done everyone.

Skydiver coffee is a hidden gem, the coffee is delicious and home brewed on the Hebrides, the cake and coffee are also fantastic - Skydancer coffee is definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

Unexpectedly good strong coffee at the Ardmhor ferry terminal on Barra. The sausage and Stornoway black pudding rolls were stuffed full and encased in the lightest flakiest pastry. In addition there was a good selection of cakes. There is an outdoor deck overlooking the Sound of Barra. A hidden gem and definitely worth arriving early for your ferry to Eriskay.

Delicious beef and veg curry pasties. Also sampled the brownie, chocolate butteries and frangipane tarts. All fresh and thoroughly delicious. Do stop off and sample these delights

Excellent Cafe Highly recommended. Great menu fantastic staff. Really well run right in the center of Stornoway.

Best Vegan breakfast we've ever had.

This came recommended by friends (we seem to have missed it repeatedly!) and it opens on a Sunday (yeeha) - modern, warm and inviting place just opposite the Council Offices (and next to the Smokehouse) - we were there early for brunch - it was busy but not crowded - great food and coffee menu and helpful staff. Food was rapid and excellent quality. Loved it

Founds this pop-up by accident one day and made a point of returning the next. Brilliant local seafood, thoughtful and tasty accompanying ingredients, well cooked and delightfully served.

Conveniently located on the car park opposite Leverburgh village hall, this van serves cones and tubs of very special ice cream most afternoons. A delightful young man took our order and money, and a very nice lady made up the ice creams. A little mental concentration is required; you have to decide 1) what size you require, 2) whether to have ice cream or frozen yoghurt as the base, and 3) what flavour to choose. I had the blackberry, which was fabulous. Just one suggestion; could you site a waste bin near the van, for used paper cups?

We were cycling the Hebridean way, one of our bikes was making a noise and we dropped in an hour before the shop and cafe closed to get Cameron and Alistair to look at the bike - nothing was a bother, We were tired and wet and we had a hot drink and cake whilst Cameron checked the bike, gave advice, fixed up what he could and got us going. We completed our trip and got to Mallaig. Very grateful for their chilled cafe vibes, friendly chat, excellent service. Best vegan red velvet and hot choc. Great, stocked bike shop for repairs . Lovely staff. Can’t recommend enough. Thanks troops.

Inspired by the “EatDrinkHebrides” trail map, popped in to collect a picnic lunch during a Hebridean road trip. We had the most amazing toasties and hot chocolate. Handy for the ferry. Worth a detour!!

Enjoyed a most amazing visit to this wee and delightful place. Snug and cozy, this is a true ceilidh - a place where community comes together to enjoy wonderful company as well as coffes, teas, and delicious authentic Scottish treats. As a bonus, we had insightful and illuminating conversations that enlightened us around many Gaelic topics and the identity of this extraordinary isle. Oh, and cute gifts too!

We called in for a bacon roll which was very tasty also choice of Pancakes available for Breakfast Menu. It also stays open at night for meals & alchohol

Excellent community cafe with gluten free options attached to the local historical museum. They did a gluten free sandwich especially for me.
