The best restaurants in Forres Moray Highlands and Islands

After a long drive, we were in search of some hot food and decided on the Tandoori. We were the only ones in. Food was delivered fairly quickly. We opted for a Lamb tandoori tikka and Paneer Bombay Special with pilau and mushroom rice. Food was piping hot and tasted nice. The chap who served us, I think was keen to get off home so we ate our food as quick as we could.

This is by far the best breakfast I’ve ever had! Everything was locally sourced, fresh and tasted amazing. The black pudding was the best black pudding I have had! Staff are friendly.

Great food and atmosphere, small but comfy, great staff and not expensive. Highly recommended, great place

We popped into the Phoenix Cafe for a quick coffee and cake treat while passing then returned the next 4 mornings as it had such a beautiful calm feeling. The coffee was delicious and I adored the truffles. My son enjoyed his brownies and soft drink. The staff were friendly and helpful.

While staying at findhorn bay camp site we decided to try Pizza for a quick meal . We had ham and pineapple pizza , garlic bread with feta dip and finished it off with tiramisu.It did not disappoint, especially the tiramisu.Decent size of pizza , plenty for 2 of us with 2 slices left to eat later .Didn’t have long to wait .

Great ice cream highly recommend with great views from the various picnic benches outside. Will definitely visit again with the family

Fantastic find .Popped in on cold wet and windy afternoon. Very welcoming Fabulous cakes and beverages . Staff very friendly and attentive. Great view . Will definitely visit again when we are in Findhorn.

First visit here and I have to say I really liked the fish and chips. Went for the haddock and chips. It was extremely nice. The chips were cooked well and the Haddock had lots of taste. Prices were very reasonable. Staff were friendly.

Really good food apart from frozen chicken burgers Other than that food was good and staff were great No drinks menu Busy in bar downstairs

Great place for food, or for a drink during the week

Interesting good shawarma and kebabs but not so good pizza and chips.

I am deeply disappointed with the Costa located in Forres Tesco. On numerous occasions, I have visited only to find the seating area closed due to "short staff." This has become a recurring issue, and it’s incredibly frustrating as a customer to constantly face the same situation. The store is relatively small with minimal foot traffic, yet two members of staff seem unable to manage. Their main task appears to be making coffee, which customers often have to collect themselves. In many cases, customers are left to clean up after themselves as well. It is hard to believe that the issue is due to staffing shortages. Instead, it seems that what’s truly lacking is effective customer service and proper training. As a loyal customer, I had hoped for a better experience, but this location has consistently failed to meet even the basic expectations. Unfortunately, this will be my last visit, as my trust in Costa Forres has been severely undermined. I’m not the only one who feels this way, as I know several other customers who share my disappointment.

Great coffee and sandwich in the cafe/bakery. It is on the high street with parking nearby, good choice of hot and cold "bakery" options. The bread was fresh with good amount of filling in my sandwich and my friends hot steak slice was tasty and full of steak and gravy. Staff were friendly and helpful and cafe is easily accessible for disabled. Im disabled so would have given 5 stars if it had been table service. We both took home some of the delicious looking cakes and we were not disappointed.

I spent 5 days at Ramnee hotel whilst attending a Wellness Retreat nearby. The service was of high standard indeed. Staff were helpful and efficient. The proprietor of the hotel was very welcoming and went out of his way to make my stay comfortable. I will be going back to stay at Ramnee Hotel as long as I visit that part of the country. I liked the view of the North Sea bay from my room. Nothing beats the fresh sea breeze every morning and the tranquility of being out there in the open. The dining experience gives a homely feel. Loved the whole experience.

absolutely dreadful service , as staff serving me were rude , the prices were over inflated , compared to other shops in Forres , the service was basic when i asked about the food i asked for , avoid if possible
