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?

Expensive, food OK, but nothing to write home about. Ladies toilet, broken seat, small sink ended up getting soaked due to the water pressure

There's always a warm welcome and great selection of hot pie's and cakes to enjoy along with a coffee or soft drink on a windy winter's or lovely summers walk.

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.

All the locals I spoke to told me the Lossie Chip shop is the place to go for a fish supper so I decided to check it out and I was definitely not disappointed. Lovely clean premises, a good range of food and friendly staff working there. I had the fish supper (fish and chips to anyone who doesn’t live in Scotland) together with a pot of curry sauce. I then headed down to West beach where I polished them off in my car… it was definitely too cold and windy to sit outdoors My meal was absolutely delicious and I’d say it’s definitely one of (if not the best) fish and chips I’ve ever had. I shall definitely be back for more when I’m next in the beautiful little seaside town of Lossiemouth. 10/10

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.

Booked ahead, as we had been turned away the previous week. On arrival, we were left standing for some considerable time whilst a number of staff scurried about. We were eventually acknowledged and rather offhandedly told to take that table there - good start. Long waiting time for drinks order, very limited range of soft drinks. Very strange confrontation when my friend tried to substitute mash for chips with his main meal, this was obviously a big problem, including the chef becoming quite vocal front of house, this, however, was eventually agreed, not sure why it was a problem. 40 minutes for main couses to come - chef's revenge? Our main meal was cleared from the table before I had finished my chips - ah well. Ordered deserts of apple crumble and custard, waitress comes back - don't have custard ! Ok, ice cream then, apple crumble arrives cold and has to be comped. Chaotic? Lack of training? Not interested? Don't think we will be back to find out.

Simply the worst Chinese takeaway we have every experienced Food had been re heated at least once and was simply inedible

Happened upon this hotel on a day trip to Lossiemouth being mainly attracted to its dog friendly sign as we had both our dogs with us. We were seated in the dog friendly dining area and were welcomed by 2 very friendly staff who immediately got a bowl of fresh water for our thirsty dogs. The other key reason for this review was the excellent varied gluten free menu which was great for me, being a coeliac. The food arrived quickly and was delicious. The restaurant began to fill up rapidly as we were eating, prompting the serving ladies to politely inform every prospective diner that there would be a 30min plus wait for food but most opted to wait. We would definitely go back if in the area again. Thank you for a perfect lunch😊

Everything about this experience was really bad. The staff couldn't have given a toss about our business and the girl behind the bar had a laughably bad attitude. The quality of the food was awful and the pizzas were absolutely rank. Far too greasy, almost no pepperoni, not a hint of chilli flakes and they burnt the cheese to the point it should ever have been served. But they did anyway. Ingredients were all horrible and the chips were barely acceptable too. It's 10 quid for a 10in pizza but 50% more for 2 more inches. Majorly bad call for us to choose the bigger ones but that plus 2 kids meals and soft drinks came to £60. A hilarious rip off for the quality of food and awful service. The girl behind the bar actually made me angry, such was her blatant disinterest in serving. This is basically a locals pub that acts like a restaurant to cater to the tourists on the odd sunny day that we were there, where the staff clearly were wishing they'd been out enjoying. We will not be back.

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

Our server was over familiar, she didn’t listen when I was asking a question about the dish I was ordering. As a result my dish didn’t have the extra side dish I would have ordered as the server stated it came with sauce. On receiving my meal I’d asked where my sauce was? It took a few minutes for the person who took my order to return to our table. The server pointed over to one of the guests in my party and stated they had sauce. I then pointed out It was my meal I’d asked questions about. The server was quite blunt asking “do you want sauce” By this point I was about 10 minutes into my dinner so said no because I didn’t want to wait any longer. My meal was getting cold and I felt the server was passive aggressive. think the staff require more front of house training in order to maximise the customer experience.

Absolutely disgusting!!! Chips are brown and solid. Fish batter is too thick, fried to oblivion on the outside, gloopy on the inside with the fish shrivelled up, dry and brown. You can’t see them pack it up and they sellotape the boxes. So didn’t check until home. This is the worst food I’ve ever seen from a takeaway. Kids and husband very disappointed. Avoid!!!

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.

We had a chow mein and a king prawn satay. Our order appeared quickly, even though you could tell from the number of phone orders, delivery drivers, hustle and bustle behind the incredibly calm and efficient young man taking the orders that a significant amount of work was happening behind the scenes. Our food portions were huge, piping hot, and above all, very very tasty. Would definitely go again.
