The best restaurants in Thurso Highland Highlands and Islands

We were already booked into the pub's accommodation (see separate review) and decided to book for dinner. With the splendid view of the working port and harbour why go further? The dinner menu in our room promised fresh fish and shellfish from the Scrabster Market opposite the pub. Catch of the day! Homemade fish pie! Both our preferences but we had a "plan B" for the mussels. Very disappointed that none of the above was available on the menu in the restaurant which on the whole was quite different from the one in our room. We settled for the salmon dish which was on both menus and a special of the day lasagna. Both excellent, well cooked, generous and quality ingredients. We decided to have the Bloody Mary cocktail listed on the menu. Surprise surprise, you guessed it, no tomato juice. Our waitress Linda was a delight. Don't shoot the messenger as is said. It can't be easy running a fish restaurant in a fishing village opposite a fish market....Two stars would be vindictive, a deserved 5 for what we had, the view and crew, but 4 it is. 🇬🇧🇳🇿

Spent 4 nights at the Park Hotel. Our room was very nice, very clean and warm. We ate in the restaurant every night and the food was lovely. Friendly and accommodating staff too. Would definitely recommend and stay again 🙂

Could be better The chips looked scrappy and fish thin and overcooked with dark brown batter. It had only just opened and the display cabinet was stacked with golden battered items so why was our fish in dark brown batter.Thecstaff didn't look happy. We certainly will not return .This was a Friday evening and there is a visiting chip van at the harbour.It seems it has a good reputation.

Nice relaxed but fun place to go, music nights are great, also fab cocktails.

We arrived with a dog and no access through front rotating door, limited or no colleague interaction to support entry. Room small very basic with a radiator that couldn’t be turned off but was burning hot all night…. Try wearing a fur coat in a tight space with a radiator that’s uncontrolled. Room facilities poor limited loo roll and shower gel. Breakfast was horrendous arrived at 9am only 2 staff every table was dirty breakfast was just the left overs with all utensils dirty and covered in grease / bean juice. Worst hotel ever would not recommend

Best Halal food in NC500 route. Serves good food and the service is too good especially the guy named shan.

I had ordered from this place and it did not disappoint! For all tourists who come to Thurso I highly recommend you take a look at this place as it really is something else! The staff are absolutely amazing, polite and so welcoming! With the food being just as great as the atmosphere it creates. For those who absolutely enjoy Chinese takeouts on days you feel like you don’t want to cook, you should look at the menu with its large variety! Would definitely order again!

Really good fish and chips to takeaway

Excellent cafe; run by volunteers. Really impressed with the service and decor of the setting. Staff were friendly and well informed about the dishes on offer. Went here for lunch with 2 friends and we were all impressed with the quality and range of food offered. I also like the system of paying by donation. We enjoyed playing pool (for free) in the games room after our meal. We will definitely return.

Ordered a delivery on foodhub, was told a £4.50 delivery charge, upon placing the order was phoned by the company and told that I would have to pay £15 cash delivery charge upon receiving the order. Well we paid the money and the food arrived!! I can't say how bad the food was, Let's start with the delivery, it was tepid The food looked terrible The pizza was bright red, we ordered a vegetable pizza We ordered a chicken and sweetcorn pizza, it was bright red and congealed We ordered a double cheese burger it was cold and resembled road kill I can't express enough that you will take your life In to your own hands eating this food.

Not really a cafe and more like a coffee bar.

Always well looked after here. Food is good and fairly rapidly served too (you could always call for a pint over or down the road while you wait). Pizza, burger, baked potatoes, chips and various other offerings.

Always excellent food and service. Vegetables are always very fresh. Our go to Chinese takeaway in the area. Great value for money.

An amazingly old, and charismatic place. Look at this picture and tell me if there's a single straight line in the room? And where it is. The hallways are equally offset, the hallways are a maze that will entertain your small children for hours while you search for them. There are zero accommodations if you're old and frail; you will fall in the bathtub. But there's also a chance the shower won't work, so that won't be a concern to begin with. Some of the lights work, I think. Our particular room had a lovely view of the co-op that offers better food than the included breakfast (the coffee was strong and satisfying) The hotel had good, clean (but not even) rooms with very friendly staff at a reasonable price. That was what we were looking for when we stayed, and everything else was a true curiosity of wonder from a time long gone in sterile hotels lacking personality today. Would recommend genuinely. Worth the experience
