The best restaurants in Elgin City South Moray Highlands and Islands

Zaika is the best Indian takeaway in Elgin without a doubt. It’s a small family owned takeaway and everything is cooked fresh. I can honestly say I have never had a bad experience here. My favourite is the Chicken Tikka Masaladar, it’s very spicy with a kick but also has a sweet tang to it. Highly recommend this. I have tried most of the speciality dishes and they are just equally as good.

Amazing breakfast, we went ad a family, we got the last table but everyone came in had reserved a seat, even for breakfast which is a good sign! I ad the Halloumi flatbread, wife had French toast with fruit compile and daughter the French toast with bacon. All so delicious. Coffee, chai latte and hot chocolate next level. Will be back again without doubt. The staff super attentive and friendly. Highly recommend.

The best place to eat in Elgin. Everything is fresh and delicious, soups, wraps, bagels and daily specials. One word of advice when you do visit, ALWAYS leave room for the cake! ( or get it to take away, you won’t regret it.)

Very good food! Ordered Korean loaded fries and classic cheese burger was really flavourful! Would recommend if in the area

Best lunch I’ve eating in Elgin and very affordable

The Bearded Chef catered our Wedding in September and the food was fantastic! Aaron and Kayleigh were both absolutely amazing and we can't thank them enough. The menu was tailored to us with new dishes and a personalised wedding cocktail as the welcome drink. The canapés were great but the main meal really stole the show. Melon with sorbet, smoked salmon and lentil soup were our choice of starters. Followed by haggis sagaloo pie, chicken stuffed with chorizo mousse with paprika sauce, fondant potatoes & veg medley and sweet potato cakes as the 3rd option. For dessert we had a trio so everybody could have a bit of everything. Highly recommend Bearded chef and would definitely use them again in future.

The best Indian takeaway food in the area. You can taste the freshness. Our new local Indian takeaway!

Recently gave this place a poor review. WRONG CAFE. I am so sorry . We enjoyed our pancakes very much. Lovely cafe and service. thankyou.

I have been twice and on both occasions the meal has been superb. Great service and all staff extremely helpful.

The pizza is very good and the desserts are also good.

Had the pleasure of dining here just before Christmas with my wife and 8 month old, the staff were fantastic when booking and upon arrival we had a high chair waiting at the table for us. The service is prompt without being rushed, the servers are knowledgeable and attentive. The food was not only well presentated, but modern, well sourced and flavourful. The beechtree in my eyes is easily one of the top, if not the best place for food in the area.

The only place for my sandwich. Plenty of variety friendly staff

Truly outstanding Sunday Roast Dinner, we both decided on the roast lamb, this was served with roast potatoe, carrots, green beans, cauliflower, creamy mash,, yorkshire pudding and an amazing amount of beautifully cooked roast lamb, all served with gravy, and choice of sauces. Amazing value and great service.

Nice quiet place for a pint. The fire was lit which added to the atmosphere. Music was always on (no juke box, just music piped through by the bar staff). Good pool table too.

Came here after having seen they won some awards. Unfortunately left very disappointed. Food was very bland. Garlic King prawns were chewy.. The chicken pakora was nice. Away for a McDonald’s instead. Personally wouldn’t recommend.
