The best restaurants in Nairn Highland Highlands and Islands

Lovely cosy little cafe, situated in the railway building on platform 1. Nice atmosphere, friendly locals and the owner is very knowledgeable and helpful with local information. A lovely lady made me a buttered baked potato with coronation chicken from a varied menu for under a fiver...great value. Nice stop to fill in time when waiting for the train, and round off a trip to the beautiful, welcoming and characterful Nairn. Both sit-in and takeaway are available. Thankyou, recommend to all for a taste of Highland hospitality.

We read about this cafe (somewhere) and thought it warranted a visit. How right we were. The weather was fine so we were able to sit outdoors to enjoy our frankfurters and fine German lager. The meal was excellent, the lager even better and the service was perfect. Needless to say, we were more than pleased with the whole experience. The menu might be slightly limited but only because the items on offer are so well prepared that less is more. And the service was attentive without being overbearing. A great place for 2 ex-Canadians to take a break from the streets of Nairn. If you're in the area make sure you find time to visit.

If I lived in Nairn, this would be my go-to café every day. The freshly made food is extremely tasty and the selection is extensive. The naturally endearing charisma of the owner, and her staff, add an extra satisfying portion of decadent spice. High streets everywhere need a place like this..

Delicious food prepared and presented beautifully. Flavours are incredible.

A coffee shop in the bus station. I loved the aroma of coffee and the friendly approach of the staff.

I don’t often have a chance to visit this marvellous establishment, despite living locally. I am a self confessed “foodie”. I appreciate all cuisines but I am particularly partial to middle eastern and far east. So I’m lucky. I love this place. I wish one day I could cook like they do. I took my trainee to 112. She is a self confessed foodie too. Now her friends all want to go …! It’s all fresh, local and lip smacking gorgeous.the flavours are not subtle. They are brave. In your face and immediately demand your respect despite being presented as demure. It’s a full blown treat every time. The wine selection is naturally magnificent. The service is next to none. This is a very small family business. They put their heart and soul to make this place sing. And boy! It’s a choir. If you are thinking on visiting Nairn and not being in a hurry, book in advance. You won’t regret it. But think of it as a good treat. You’ll probably end up spending at least £50 a head. It’s well worth penny. Ps. Skip cauliflower.

Lovely meal and excellent service

Called in after a dog walk for a cup of tea and some sweet treats. The kinder beuno whoopie cookie was very good! Can recommend the special biscoff hot chocolate too, if you like sweet things.

Actually a nice place, especially when the weather allows for outdoor seating. Unfortunately, there were a few things during our visit that led to our conclusion being only average: The menu is clear. It doesn't really need more than that, but when quite a few items from this clear menu are no longer available more than an hour before closing time, something is wrong with the planning. On top of that, a very (!) limited selection of cakes at the peak of coffee time... The service staff were very nice, but rather slow. If half the tables can't be used because dishes are used and not cleared, then I would recommend re-examining the internal procedures.

Love the ice cream but todays service was just bizarre. There was a mix up with my order, then I was given a cone right ice cream wrong type of cone, I asked for the correct cone and watched the server scrape the ice cream from one cone to the correct one then I was passed the correct cone with half a scoop of ice cream. I highlighted this and was told by the owner “well is just give you a refund” now I am not sure if you have kids but the whole reason of our visit was to reward my two for a fantastic parents and a half scoop would have been a bit of an insult. I requested a different flavour which took another 5 minutes, when the owner hand it over he was obviously not pleased. He gave me a look as if to say you got what you want now go away. I asked if I didn’t justify an apology and was told no as he had already offered me a refund. As stated a refund was no use. I thought this level of service was long since finished, The arrogant proprietor who thinks if people’s aren’t happy then don’t come back. Maybe get some empathy, it goes a long way.

Fabulous health food and alternative medicine shop, helpful and friendly staff. Well stocked and I was spoilt for choice. The lady who served me was knowledgeable about the products. I will definitely be back. Well worth a visit. 10/10

Great food at great prices....yum!

Great location. Direct sea views. Very good food. Had seafood linguine; which was excellent - included Scottish mussels and hot smoked salmon, as well as other usual ingredients. Simple green salad - very good crisp veg and properly dressed. Quality of food and preparation shine through. Well done to chefs and attentive and welcoming front of house team. Definitely worth a visit in a town with so so other dining choices. We are passing through so don’t know what else is available locally. This place - food, service and location doing very well.

We both had the Sunday Roast which was ok but we had to order extra gravy which is the 1st time I’ve ever been charged for extra gravy. The restaurant was very quiet only a couple of tables in and the service was ok

Lovely venue for my retirement meal. Great service, friendly staff.just perfect
