The best restaurants in Heldon and Laich Moray Highlands and Islands

Went last night and ordered large haddock supper single scampi two chips cheese curry sauce. Also a pickled onion. Waiting in queue the portions of food looked great getting boxed up for customers. Number 26 was called and we happily headed off to enjoy. Disaster! One not very large Haddock Supper! NO Scampi...another small single fish? NO pickled onion but a gherkin! Where did you guys get it wrong? Did you not understand Scottish? Or is it just another case of ripping off the tourist?

Delicious! Lovely to walk along the beautiful beach with an ice cream in hand. There was a queue but it went down quickly. There are potentially too many flavours but we just used that as an excuse to have to visit more than once!

We received a very warm welcome. The rooms were all en-suite. They were very clean with tea and coffee making facilities. A perfect stopover for our Moray Coastal walk.

Great service. Coffee and food was very good – particularly impressed by their scones, but all the dishes we tried were good. And all at a very good price. Highly recommended.

Jist go be your own juge , stars are from my experience, enjoy

Lovely little bakery very close to the West Beach in Lossiemouth. Hot and cold pies, and a great range of cakes. The helpful assistant talked us through all the options as we weren't familiar with the pie fillings. We decided on a hot sausage roll and a chocolate brownie - both were excellent. Brownie was so moist and delicious I didn't want it to end 😋

Worst restaurant in Elgin. Words cannot explain the hatred we felt leaving after a work lunch. From the staff to the food everything was not enjoyable. Should definitely take tips from others on how to run a restaurant. Can only imagine what the hotel itself is like.

Excellent service, great food, excellent service.

Nice food, came here a couple of times, went especially for cullen skink, had to send it back due to having no fish in it, it was soon rectified seconds bowl was delicious. Second visit in the week fish platter for two, lobster was tiny for two people and rubbery only gave us three langoustines meal for two, it was OK but needs improvement at 48.00 , wouldn't have it again, but overall good place to eat

We popped in here whilst touring in the area and were very impressed with the food and service. Hubby had the Chicken Tennessee Burger and I had the Chicken Parmiganio. Both dishes were cooked to perfection and I can honestly say it was the best Chicken Parmiganio I’ve ever had. It does advise that the meals are cooked to order and it could be up to a 30 minute wait but if you want great food it is worth it. The staff were lovely and very attentive. If we are ever back in the area we will definitely be coming back.

Was visiting Lossiemouth for a few days and popped into Smugglers 3 times for drinks. Great selection of drinks. Lovely bar, very relaxed atmosphere. Lovely staff especially Aaron who liked to have a chat! If I’m ever back in Lossiemouth I’ll be popping back in.

The time we were there for drinks was so good, the staff are lovely so welcoming and there is always someone there if you need anything, I will definitely be back

Excellent in every way! We ate here 4 times in 4 days, 2 lunches and 2 evening meals. Good is fresh, delicious and decent portion sizes. The “Specials” truly live up to their name. Particular highlights included mussels in white wine sauce, haddock goujons and the brisket. 3 of us are coeliac and they provided us with an allergens menu. They had run out of GF bread/rolls some days but kindly allowed us to use our own. Service was friendly and staff happy to answer/clarify and queries we had. Small wine list with lovely choices to suit the cuisine. Highly recommended!

Seem to be making a lot of mistakes lately. Got a small portion of chips and a kids burger meal and was charged £10.25, getting so expensive lately. Last time I ordered coleslaw and received curry sauce.

Ordered online from here during a work course up in Lossiemouth. Overall, fairly average. No issues with the staff, the two guys behind the counter were friendly. However, the food (in areas) let me down. My Van Gogh Pizza fell apart - to elaborate, the Cheese fell off with all the topping going with it. Ended up with Tomato based Bread and piles of topping. However, it was tasty enough and the Chips were faultless. Not the biggest fan of the Garlic & Herb Sauce unfortunately - found it quite sickly. Cost wise, it was about £17 so in the grand scheme of things, about right in comparison to other takeaways in the area.
