I'm always on the look out for something different and this quaint tea shop in the wilds of Shetland fits the bill. I had the Victoria sponge, which was excellent. The café has a warm comforting ambience and the staff and service are excellent.

went with two of my favourite people. Got served by this lovely two. One who recommended me the tomato soup - i hadn’t tried before, which was amazing!!!! I couldn’t decide between the tattie or tomato so they let me try both out a small pot. I was also served a lovely scone heated up with butter 💗 amazing lovely customer service - brilliant envirmoment. Very humble and cozy Also managed to get a amazing steal from the good as new shop 💖💖💖

Having walked up to Sumburgh Head lighthouse on a cold, rainy and windy January day, there was nothing more welcoming than the sight of Katja's coffee and cake bus. As it was just the two of us, we actually sat inside and spent a very pleasant half hour chatting to Katja and enjoying the good strong coffee and the very lovely cake as we sheltered from the weather. If you are visiting the lighthouse, definitely grab a coffee here, it's quirky, she's lovely and the coffee and cake are top notch.

We had lunch at Isle Eat today. Fantastic fish and chips (generous portions!) served by a lovely, smiley waitress. Desserts being served to other customers looked yummy but too full to try any. Would certainly recommend.

We found Hand Made Fish, the croft smokehouse of David Parham, a true delight. David smokes salmon that he carefully selects from Orkney and Shetland fish suppliers. He is passionate about smoking salmon to perfection, and what counts most is to always improve. Our visit to his smokehouse in Bigton, Maywick, was a unique food experience. He told us stories, explained the smoking process and offered us a fascinating tasting experience that learned us how different the pieces of his artisan salmon taste: tail, head, side, body. What a discovery! Everyone of our family, adults and kids, really enjoyed David’s stories and his wonderful smoked salmon. Simply the best salmon we ever had! A few days later we had the luck to also taste David’s smoked haddock he was so kind to deliver us in Lerwick. We poached it in butter and milk, ate it with potatoes and poached eggs, and loved it!

Can't be too harsh on a food van but I really expected better. Horrible tasting burger, fully processed and cheapest meat. Tesco value condiments (clearly on display!), the worst processed sliced cheap plastic cheese. Did laugh at "Chicken Loaded Fries" on the menu for £9!!! Comical price.

5 stars is way too low. So so good. We came for breakfast our first day in Lerwick and loved it. They were so welcoming and the breakfast was great so we came back again the next day for some cake and coffee. We had the lemon drizzle cake and it was easily the best lemon drizzle we've ever had. The wonderful lady who was working at the till when we came in brought over a no bake lemon cake which was equally as good. Definitely a must visit during your time in lerwick and we can't reccommend the cake enough!

My favourite place in Lerwick for coffee and a sweet. If you're here in Shetland, you MUST stop by and enjoy the friendly service, wonderful variety of things from Puffin Poo to ice cream. If I could, I would stop by more than I already do! From a member of the IL Coffee Club! 😁

I been at KB with my family for a birthday meal. First strange thing I noticed when they brought a buttered fish for my child and fish was pale, oily and soggy (when breaded fish served for my second child looked great). When they brought my buttered fish I seen the same- A very pale, soggy, greesy thing on my plate :( Taste was not good eaither..butter was not crispy, but greesy and also had a taste of old flour, not sure what was wrong but I ate less than half. When waitress came to collect plate (she probably seen I ate no much of it) she asked "if all was ok?"..I honesty said that I didnt like my buttered fish and... waitress just replied "Thats ok", turned around and gone with my plate. She show NO interest in situation at all.. and I had no even a chance to explain why I did no ate my dinner. Next thing I did not like, it when my kid's favourite song starts to play, some gentelmen appeared from kitchen with a hoover in his hands and without asking anybody around he turned his hoover ON and instead of music we listened a sounds of hoover for a few minutes. Kids were so upset. They said "we didnt hear our favourite song" :( Now, after I came back home from KB I had a very upset stomack and it still sore, child who had buttered fish too complained about sore tummy too. So..not very good experience for 70 pounds we paid. Probably would not go back to KB again :-(

This is a wonderful place to stay directly across from Lerwick via ferry. The room was clean and comfortable with a great shower. Dinner was excellent as was breakfast. We really enjoyed our stay. The ferry to and from Lerwick runs frequently and the ride is short. It is only a couple minutes walk from the hotel to the ferry terminal. The owners are super friendly and obviously work hard to make their hotel comfortable.

Good Nepali restaurant which serves Indian food as well but there’s only one thing which was quite concerning for me and it is the excessive use of food colouring in the food, my biryani was all red thanks to the colouring but apart from this everything was fine.

Absolutely fantastic fish and chips. I traveled here all the way from New Zealand because I heard that these are undoubtedly the best f&c on earth. I was not lied to. Frankie's should should be the Scottish capital. Shetland is worth visiting just for this. Get em in ya
