The best restaurants in Highlands and Islands

This place is a little treasure. Unfortunately, they were sold out of pork, but the choice to go with turkey and stuffing batch instead did not disappoint. No dry turkey here. It was juicy, tasted amazing, and there was lots of it. The service was friendly and not overbearing. Shame I live in England, I'd be there every day.

First time in the area and sunset was recommended.....so glad it was, absolutely delicious meal and good size portions. Will definitely return when in the area just order early.

Amazing takeaway we were up staying at the newmore highland pods and this takeaway delivered right to the pods. Food was delicious and quick delivery service.

Very nice burgers and the waiter was so friendly that I want to eat there again. Beeing treated in A burger store so friendly is extraordinary.

Absolutely brilliant! The service was fantastic, warm and wellcoming. We had scottish breakfast and it was absolutely delicious. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our breakfast needs ❤️. Would absolutely recommend!

We went to get some lunch after we finished climbing Ben Nevis! Fantastic foods and such a comfortable place to relax and take in the warmth of fire wood! I had an entree haggis and venison burger main which was a super delicious and generous portion. Clean bathroom and helpful staff. We traveled from overseas and couldn't call the taxi on our mobile but the staff helped call one for us to get back to the train station. Definitely recommend for food and drinks if you are in the area!

Fun bookstore if you like hunting for books, seemed a bit disorganized, staff was not very helpful

The Craig Bar is a classic scottish bar in Grantown-on-Spey. It is run by Robbie who attentively cares for his customers. Sensitive ladies may find it surprising to be named "darling" but we found it funny and charming. Different pies are on offer, all of them freshly made and very tasty, Beer, wine and whiskeys run into the glasses - what can you ask more for a great evening in Speyside?

Found online when looking for haggis on the menu. Would never have found it otherwise. So glad l did!

*2024 update: Food was average this time, and I was disappointed, especially given the above-average prices. Crispy chili chicken salad was nicely seasoned and good, but the salad was prepped so that pieces of veg were considerably longer than mouth (a no-no in fine dining) and served on a slate - I don't know anyone that enjoys the sound or sensation of cutlery on slate... Spoiled the experience. The beef burger with cheese and bacon was small, served in a flimsy brioche bun (what's the obsession with serving burgers on brioche??) and the portion was small, especially stingy on chips (which were good). The burger was on a par with a decent pub meal, no better (slightly dry and overcooked, small-ish). The Biscoff and chocolate cheesecake had no chocolate on or in it, unless a tiny undetectable amount in the base. No chocolate flavour at all. Definitely gone downhill since I last visited a few years ago. Also 5 different people served us, even tho the restaurant wasn't busy - the benches in the window seat have the back at 90° to the seat which is very uncomfortable, and the table was cramped for 4 diners. The overall experience could be improved easily. Food, service and dining environment all have plenty room for improvement. 2018 = 5* (has gone downhill massively) oA restaurant with a warm, welcoming atmosphere and excellent food. The standard menu and the specials all sounded excellent and everyone I was with thoroughly enjoyed their food. A good range of options using local produce creatively. The service was excellent: prompt and friendly. Even the coffee was exceptionally good. I'd have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant to anyone.

This was the highlight of Fort William. Had a wonderful breakfast there with muesli and a Matcha Latte! Both super delicious, service was outstanding, atmosphere was nice!

Our family of 4 had a wonderful meal here whilst on our trip to Grantown on Spey. The food was wonderful, homemade, good quantity and quality at a good price. We had steak and ale pie, balmoral chicken, chicken goujons and veggie burger plus wonderful homemade desserts. The vegetarian options were really good. We would recommend to anyone looking for something to eat here.

Modern menu in a cool and funky setting

Not the best breakfast food in Dingwall, but in the UK. Couldn’t be more perfect. People couldn’t be nicer. The view is awe inspiring but like looking at a brick wall compared to the food. I will be chasing this experience until I die.

Had an amazing brunch at this place which is enroute to Skyee from Beauly. Extremely courteous and passionate people about what they do. Food and service was top notch
