The best restaurants in North Isles Orkney Islands Highlands and Islands

What a fantastic place!!! So comfy, welcoming and lovely. Breakfast was amazing and dinner in the restaurant was perfect. Highly recommend!

What a gem of a place. Fantastic cheery welcome with great service. Lovely atmosphere and delicious food. If you're going to Westray you've got to visit.

Excellent thin-crust sourdough pizza with a good selection of toppings. I had the Zola (nothing to do with French literature - it has Gorgonzola cheese in the topping) and my wife had Quattro formaggi (also with Gorgonzola). Quick, friendly service, a simple and clean space and BYOB. What more can you ask for?

Only found out once on the island that the café was no longer opening for business. Apparently there are still workshops taking place but no drop in cafe

Sailed here, having started in Bodo, Norway. Enjoyed Westray and the Pierowall Bar/Restaurant. All 3 of us were happy with our food in the restaurant and drinks from the bar. Realised there was what seemed like a 'locals' bar when I walked to the toilets.

The coffee was delicious. However, a normal heat one was luke warm and the extra hot lattes were just hot. The home baking was amazing! We had a lively time and left very satisfied.

Came here for a nice fish and chips and did not disappoint. lovely place, great fresh fish, chips are amazeballs. Tried some of my friend's carbonara and it was astonishing.

Turning left off the ferry from the mainland, Richan's retreat is the first house on the right, 100 yards up the road. Step inside to a genuinely warm welcome and a trip back into the island past. Run by a Westray lady married to a Mancunian exile, the cafe offer's excellent value basic fare - the soup was homemade and utterly delicious - accompanied by friendly conversation and a genuine insight into island life. The cafe also features handcrafts, all made on Westray itself. Not to be missed on any trip.

Popped in for an evening meal. 2 x very tasty burgers and some good beer later we left very happy. It isn't the grandest of places, but it does deliver good food at a fair price. Would definitely return if we were staying longer.

Wonderful service from Sarah for drinks and lunch. Nothing was too much trouble, the menu was adapted to suit us all. 3 diners had fish in various ways and I enjoyed the veggie burger. Beautiful setting, extremely good value for money. Good variety of local drinks
