The best restaurants in East Sutherland and Edderton Highland Highlands and Islands

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

I knew not to expect lobster in November but I’d hoped for langoustines or maybe scallops at a push. Not to worry, haddock tacos sounded great! Love tacos, love haddock, so jumped at them and also ordered a kids fish & chips with a side order of mushy peas. I was the only person in and didn’t particularly enjoy having to listen to the young fella in the kitchen ranting about vegans and vegan food for 10 minutes. I’m clearly not vegan but I wouldn’t have enjoyed hearing rants about anything, especially calling people weirdos and generally being unpleasant. Not a great atmosphere to be waiting in. It was a mixed bag to be honest. The mushy peas were not, they were more of a pea & mint purée, not pleasant. The tacos were surprisingly bland. Of course I wasn’t expecting great Mexican food in a tiny village in the Highlands but I did expect some flavour. Even the fish was unseasoned. Luckily I was taking home and had guacamole and chipotle sauce to hand. The fish was plentiful and perfectly cooked though. And the batter (despite the lack of seasoning) was probably the best I’ve ever had. Light, crispy and golden. The fish and chips were faultless. Not chips as you’d maybe expect from a chippy, more like fries but they were really good and well seasoned. I’d probably have made this a 3.5 but I’m happy to give 4. The young woman serving was really pleasant and helpful and countered the rants from the kitchen (she handled him well too, better than I would have). I’d definitely return and recommend but wouldn’t recommend the tacos.

we enjoyed our one night stay here and would recommend it to anyone. Room and breakfast were perfect.

The cafe was so clean and the food was excellent the girl serving was so nice and very helpful would highly recommend it is a ace not to be missed

Rated 5/5 - utterly superb - great venue, wonderful food and superb service. It was an absolute pleasure to discover this recently opened restaurant that blends quirky surroundings with fantastic dining. I will certainly be returning very soon.

A lovely little bakery in Brora Very helpful & friendly staff Such a choice of pies cakes & bread Very busy little bakery with people queuing for the carpark

Really good food very reasonably priced in a fantastic location served by very attentive hosts. One of the best experiences of our holiday on Arran

Best coffee we found between Inverness and John O’groats. Cakes are huge and staff are very friendly. Nice spacious cafe to sit and enjoy your coffee.

Had a great meal for 5 people for my mums birthday. I had the breaded lemon sole which I normally have which was succulent and flavoursome. My brothers large haddock was excellent and the batter was perfect. Scampi was large and plentiful. Breaded haddock was delicious. Also the banana fritters were super good. Ambience and service was impeccable - lovely people.

the guy who was on call at 2:10 pm was very lovely and served me well, he had a good sense of humor and he was just overall a fun guy

Amazing food, fantastic service! would highly recommend! staff were really helpful had a lovely meal.

Have used Sandstone cafe many times over the years and as usual this time it was a very pleasant experience. Great food, drink and service with a smile. Keep up the good work and see you soon.

Staff were nice but the sandwiches weren't great, no options for bread and the white bread we were given wasn't fresh. Disappointed

Amazing food and fantastic service. We will definitely be returning to this brilliant restaurant. Would definitely recommend

Popped in for lunch on a cold November as a chance to warm up. This is a lovely family run local cafe, always full of local residents which is always a good sign. Staff are always friendly chatty and nothing is too much trouble. Food is always good quality, tasty and homemade. They have a great menu from breakfasts, snacks and light lunches and do a variety of hot & cold drinks. Their banana milkshake made with ice cream is to die for. Highly recommend popping in here if you are in Golspie
