The best restaurants in Dingwall and Seaforth Highland Highlands and Islands

My husband and me are regulars at EM’s so today when we visited we were saddened to see that she is closing down today. The baking has always been first class and the friendly staff, amazing. EM’s will be greatly missed in Dingwall. All that is left for me to say is that we wish Emily and her staff all the very best in the future. A truely brilliant baker.

Lovely bakers shop with cafe. Home made soup, pies and pastries, cakes, sandwiches and the best doughnuts, especially the caramel topped doughrings. Friendly welcoming service, led by Dorothy. Excellent......

Endroit joli et propre. Super accueil. La cuisine est soignée et plutôt variée. Les mets sont simples mais préparés et servis avec soin. Les prix sont très corrects.

Regretably, this wonderful restaurant has now closed as the owners retired. Very best to them for a lovely retirement after many years of fabulous food and unbeatable hosting. Bon chance!

Wherever we are in the Inverness area we make a beeline for a Harry Gow shop. We stay at Dingwall campsite so use the local one there. Best bakers in UK. Brilliant homemade soup, a different one every day, delicious filled rolls, sausage rolls and what a fantastic selection of cakes 😋😋.

This small street cafe style Thai restaurant is fantastic! Freshly cooked, hot Thai food served by friendly staff. As there are only a few tables it's best to book, now also open at lunchtime. BYO. Free parking nearby.

Been here lots of times the service is always quick and friendly, the coffee is always good and they have a wide selection of delicious cakes

First time visiting this restraunt. Pleasant surroundings outside and lovely dining area in conservatory area. There were 5 of us here tonight, 19th February 2025. Quiet in restraunt though busier in bar area. Service was great with friendly staff. There was a good choice on the menu and food was absolutely delicious. We has steak pie, gammon steak, scampi, fish and chips and pizza. One of our party had starter of black pudding which he said was delicious too. I will definitely go back and highly recommend this restraunt.

What a great Indian restaurant. We originally come from Birmingham (arguably the curry capital of UK!) and have had MANY a good curry in our time! Great first visit to Chilli Masala in Dingwall. Really good first impressions as you enter the restaurant, spacious, good atmosphere and spotlessly clean. Friendly staff, attentive but not over-bearing. Food was absolutely spot on from poppadums with all the trimmings to start followed by lamb madras, chicken tikka masala, keema rice and naan bread. Everything was well presented, piping hot and delicious! Lovely touch at the end of the meal when it was mentioned that it was my birthday and a bottle of Cobra lager appeared on the table - on the house! Having lived in the Highlands for 3 years now, delighted to have found an Indian restaurant which measures up to our Birmingham friends! Great job guys, thanks, will definitely be back again very soon!

We ordered a takeaway and they forgot the chips, I called to let them know and they tried to get us to take a discount next meal but as the chips were required I asked if they would deliver? Eventually turned up 3/4 of a hour later despite the rest of the meal arriving in 25 minutes from being placed ….they clearly took the scraps from the bottom of the basket totally disgusting which went in the bin, apart from my partner’s starter the rest was tasteless and uninspiring, definitely won’t be using again , on reflection we stopped using them a few years ago for something similar

fabulous place to eat - good food lovely atmosphere - friendly staff - had haggis panini and ham and cheese toastie - absolutely tasty

We went in with 2 dogs and sat at a table for 2. We were asked to move to a table accros the cafe as we were not at a dog friendly table. No problem. The table was being cleared for us and a man came in with a dog and sat at the table. The waitress didn’t say anything to him. I challenged him but he didn’t move, another customer offered to move but we were embarrassed . No other dog friendly tables were available so we left.

Great food, be patient if the phone is busy- it’s a one man team and he’s very good at what he does but only has so many hands! 😂

Best pizza I’ve ever had and I mean ever, fresh dough fresh ingredients the man is a wizard pizza base of fluffy and a crispy but not burnt base. If you like yourself a pizza you’ve gotta try this place

So well looked after. Despite it being a wednesday night and us being "out of towners" we were treated like locals. The chap in charge even made my wife a proper mug of tea with biscuits. 10/10
