The best restaurants in Badenoch and Strathspey Highland Highlands and Islands

Visited in October 2022 and October 2023 and have been daydreaming about the coffee ever since - nothing else has come close!

We were recommended to come here for breakfast and we weren't disappointed. Lovely local food and friendly staff. We then had a lovely walk back to our accommodation.

Incredible quality of ice cream, friendly, great Italian vibe. The staff were really nice to us, they have so many unique ice cream flavours, I tried Christmas pudding and Apple and cinnamon crumble. The coffee was also good and they sell some really nice products from Italy. Will definitely be back!

Wow!! Such an amazing place. The food was out of this world and the service was outstanding. The portion sizes are massive too! I will most certainly be back. Thank you :)

Some of the freshest pints going and fantastic vibes and energy. Lovely spot for a post mountain/walk pint. 10/10 would recommend.

Aaaaincreíble bollo de canela. recién horneado e igualmente bueno Flat White. fabuloso lugar en una zona tranquila de Edimburgo. Bonita mañana

I got a seat in a packed restaurant despite not having a reservation. Thank you. The soup and food were very good. A large selection of regional beers. I envy the staff here, and not just the two of them. It's pure stress. The food comes quickly and is hot.

Very clean cafe with friendly staff. Food was so good, fresh and the portions were large.

Loch Morlich is a beautiful spot in the Cairngorms with a rare sandy beach, clear waters, and stunning mountain views. Great for kayaking, paddleboarding, walking, or just relaxing. Good facilities nearby and easy parking. A must-visit if you're in the Highlands

Lovely little cafe. Food great, atmosphere lovely and staff super friendly. Would happily eat there again in passing through Carr Bridge

Amazing bartender! Love him so much! ❤️

Visiting from South Lanarkshire, booked this on-line. When we drove past, we thought erm, it's doesn't look great.BUT, step inside and find the most AMAZING boutique restaurant with an open kitchen. Chef demonstrating his expertise with coping with a full house, sent us a wee starter because of the wait. The food was WORTH waiting for. Beautifully presented, amazing tastes, attention to detail. Steak 🥩 is the best I've ever had, presented with toasted garlic, beefsteak tomato, mushroom. Sauces for steak are freshly made with cream. Wonderful menu, with specials which ran out very quickly. If you are visiting Aviemore, highly recommend you book into this week place. It's privately owned restaurant, 5 or so miles drive from Aviemore. You won't be disappointed. Pay cash to support this local business (saving on card fees) and remember to tip your waiting staff. Everyone worked so hard, attentive, and food was fabulous! Highly recommend 🎉 Thank you Team Andersons 🎉

friendly staff, lovely art gallery

What a great meal - Thank you Liz!! It was just so Yummy. The service from Peter was just fantastic. The 4 of us just had a fantastic night. Such a great atmosphere. Good old fashion country hospitality. Thank you all again for a great night.

Have been here many times over the past few years. Tiny bowl of soup, which was very tasty, and a small warm roll, which was also scrummy, for £7.25! No background music. A suggestion would be steam railway soundtrack given the unique setting. Also very poor practice to be sweeping up when customers are eating. Unlike all previous, enjoyable visits. Unsure if we will be back…
