The best restaurants in Caol and Mallaig Highland Highlands and Islands

We didn’t have a booking but the restaurant fitted us in which we really appreciated. We were not disappointed the food was exceptional and so was the service. The menu is small, but perfect. We all ordered a different main course and none of us were disappointed. I have a starter again, beautiful and the rest of the party a dessert again fantastic. The complimentary soup was a nice touch too. It was the first evening of our stay and it could not have been any better. A really great restaurant. Thank you.

Wonderful place. I had read about the Corrour Estate & have stayed nearby for a number of years & wanted to go there last year but was not organised enough. Got the train up from Roybridge - double check that there is a return train as it would be an epic walk back - delicious lunch of soup & a venison burger with several pints of the Corrour Gold beer and caught the train back. The location is other worldly & must be about as remote as you can get in the UK. Well looked after by the charming team of ladies working there today and will definitely return

Really friendly family owed restaurant. We just stopped in for a quick bit to hold us over to dinner. I had the apple pie and my husband had a slice of some type of lemon pie/cake. The apple pie was good. I also had a large tea while my husband had coffee. Very relaxed environment. The owner was really friendly and has two dogs which are nice and mellow. There are snacks for sale already packaged for travel. We took some freshly baked snacks for later that night (i really do not remember what we had…only it was good). The restaurant offers local artist crafts for sale. We Recommend a stop in for a quick bit to eat.

Well, what can I say. Stayed here for two nights to attend a funeral. I knew it was going to be great when, arriving at 22 45, Kieron welcomed me and I climbed the stairs to my single room…..and the floors creaked. Allways a good sign of an excellent hotel when the floors do that, never failed me. Fantastic little room, attention to detail was superb. Breakfast was out of this world, skillfully prepared and beautifully presented. I didnt need lunch…….. Superb “wake” served for around 30 people , amazing soup, sandwiches, tea and coffee and chocolate pudding to die for, so light and guilt free ! Meal in the bistro for me, two cousins and my 9? year old Aunty after the wake.Ina could not have been more attentive. Enjoy this couples excellent service while you can, retirement beckons for them after 23 years !

We were lucky that they were still open for a very late lunch as we came from remote Loch Quoich. Hospitality was superb as well as the food. Ambiance is nice having tables alongside the shop shelves and the terrace on the porch looking over green

Delicious savoury and sweet food, freshly prepared, very friendly service. On a par with the best tea rooms anywhere in the world.

We had some really delicious cake and tea. I would definitely recommend the banana chocolate cake and the apple caramel cake. The service was really nice and I would definitely stop there again.

I stayed for one night only - having heard about this place, and pounced on the single slot when I saw it. It's worth the drive up from Glasgow and ferry from Mallaig to get here even for one night: my room was spacious, beautifully furnished and very comfortable, with a seating area with a view of the amazing beach. The owner Sue is a warm, charming host and an absolutely amazing cook, providing a fantastic three-course dinner while sloshing wine into glasses and encouraging guests and other diners to relax and interact. Breakfast is awesome, as the Americans say. I hired a bike and sweated up (then down) the hill to get here, but don't be put off by that - the island taxi/minibus is always on-hand, and they do excellent tea and cakes at their base nearly next door - but that's another story.

I called in as a stop on my way back to Fort William. I had a freshly made bacon roll, coffee and a home made sponge. All very tasty. I also visited the heritage room next door which was very interesting and informative. I can highly recommend this place. a change from the usual commercial places.

One of if not the best Sunday roast I’ve ever had! 3 courses under £20 too. The pate is the best I’ve had, I had lamb main and my partner had beef, both spot on. Perfectly sized portions leaving you full but not uncomfortable. Brilliant service in a Covid safe environment. Compliments to the chef!

this bar is a retreat away from the crowd so tastefully decorated even Rabbie Burns would love this him self cocktails were amazing the bar staff know how to deliver satisfaction right to your table .

Lovely place to stop for brew...

Great little shop and the coffee is top notch too! This shop has you covered with all your essentials and more. Even a few lux items like almonds croissants) (and some great burgers are available. Definitely no need to bring food along with you. Also a great chat to have a wee chat with the locals or bask in the sun #scotlandisatropicalparadise 😉

Went for an afternoon coffee with family. I've noticed from certain reviews that some people should really have been aware that this is a working marina... We were lucky enough to visit on an unseasonably hot and sunny day in October, particularly for Lochaber, so we ate outside. Coffee and cake all round was good. Coffees (and one tea) were great and well made. Cakes were delicious, though the carrot cake was a bit on the dry side. We put that down to it being late in the day, but will be something to consider if we go again. Staff could not have been more friendly, especially as we (and other visitors) were still seated after closing. I blame the fantastic weather. If you're really lucky, you can watch the Jacobite Express (sadly now better known as the train from that movie franchise) steam past on the adjacent level crossing!

First time in the area and sunset was recommended.....so glad it was, absolutely delicious meal and good size portions. Will definitely return when in the area just order early.
