The best restaurants in Moray Highlands and Islands

Been to shop loads of times such a lovely shop and staff. Stock is always great and prices great to. Kids love visiting and attending events organised through the shop. So helpful and generous and your always made welcome.

Trip down memory lane to Millbuies for a short walk. Great to see catering available and pleasantly surprised by the quality of the coffee and treat (tasty jammie dodger that could feed a family). Friendly service, tasty food and drink just what you need on a morning walk.

Cullen is starting to get good food outlets and this one is no exception. Their pizzas, made to order, are just s a pizza should be with a tangy sauce and great choice of toppings. It is a go-to place for burgers, kebabs and pizzas.

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.

Made reservation in the states, required 10 pounds down payment (not a big deal). My reservation was for Friday night. Got there and seated. Beautiful place, wooden structural was well put together. The 10 course meal was delicious. Each plate was explained. There were a few "wow" factors on my meal. It was well worth the price. Presentation was very high. Each course was served with new clean knife, fork and spoon.

I was in Granton on spey for a weeks holiday and was on a shopping trip to Elgin where we came across the muckle square Cafe. Wow. What a breakfast they do.huge and very reasonable price.we travelled there everyday for the week just to have there breakfast.can't recommend it highly enough.

We loved our visit to the Coffee Cart after a riverside walk. Run by a lovely, chatty lady from Lossie, the coffee was delicious. We didn't eat cake, but they looked delicious. Highly recommend.

Staff were very pleasant. The restaurant which was run by a religious organisation had to very friendly ladies working in it. I had the Soup and Pudding Lunchtime special. Both soup and the lovely hot pudding was home made and very welcome on a cold Scottish winters day. Excellent place for a light lunch.

Absolutely love the Elgin Gregss. I work nearby and Greggs is my lunch spot. Staff are super friendly and helpfull especially Maz and Sarah!!!!!!!! Other Greggs branches can learn alot from these ladies! Will definitely return!!!!!!

We visited Seasonal Flavour when they were at the Braemar Gathering. I enjoyed a fantastic Highland Venison Burrito. One of the few times I've had venison. And a Crispy Buttermilk Wild Pheasant Sandwich with fries. My husband loved it, my kids loved it. Great meal!

We went here to get some food for a beach picnic and this lovely local sandwich bar did not disappoint! They had a nice selection of bread/rolls to choose from as well as an array of freshly prepared fillings. They have homemade soups and homebaking available too. Sausage rolls are to die for - so you need to try them! All very reasonably priced too. Oh and if you like your fish - they have a fresh fish counter too!

The occaision was my Aunt's 90th Birthday and 3 members of her family and their partners, belatedly gathered in her hometown of Lossiemouth as were unable to attend the actual Birthday in January. We read reviews and preferring a small local restaurant, and wanting to treat her to something really special, Willi and his team did not disappoint! From making the booking, all queries were answered promptly and suggestions made in a very helpful way ensuring that our Aunt had the very best time. The place itself was very smart with a wood burner and comfortable chairs, local artwork on the walls and excellent friendly staff who are well informed with regard to the food and what the chef can do if an alternative is needed from the menu. The food itself was sublime, beautiful fresh fish imaginatively presented with interesting flavours Willi really knows how to pair ingredients to make something spectacular. Great wine excellent food, the place was doing an absolutely roaring trade on a Thursday, every tabke was taken, do yoursrlf a favour and come here!

My favourite café! We can always rely on The New Denver to provide great food, service and a gorgeous friendly atmosphere. Amazing to have a vegan cafe so close to home, it's a real treat

Had a great Cappuccino and hot chocolate really top quality and friendly service. Including great tips on visiting the local area!
