The best restaurants in Highlands and Islands

Friendly service, delicious food and tasty coffee. Such a warm welcome and attentive service, without being overbearing. The posh sandwich was amazing, the paninis stacked with chicken. True value for money Book ahead on a busy day as it’s a popular destination (quite understandably!).

Excellent lunch here at the weekend - freshly ore prepared, quality ingredients and very tasty. Can highly recommend.

Got scallops for a starter, it was a little too cold and a little unfamiliar with a few slices of sausage 🙂 Had the fillet as a main course - probably the best prepared and most tender meat ever. Exceptionally friendly service by a young but very attentive waiter.

Very attractive inside( we were in the barrel vaulted room).Scallop starter was gorgeous, Mackerel Caesar Salad excellent too.DH’s Oysters were top notch (second only to those from Port Askaig on Islay , his standard against which all are judged.) Bavette steak was nicely done.Chips were a bit odd…coin sized slices of potato, some a bit overly crunchy.Disappointing. Sticky toffee pudding was nice but tasted more of chocolate rather than toffee. Menu - could have been a bit more extensive re shellfish.I didn’t like some of the combos…not sure a fish as good as monkfish should be served in a curry; couscous as a side always puts me off too.A bit more traditional, simple accompaniments to fish would have appealed to me more.eg creamy mash or quality chips or dauphinoise.

Fantastic evening,Pre ordered a Seafood sharing platter,Our eyes popped open when it arrived.Two massive bowls of Steamed Mussels in a wine and cream sauce,cooked perfectly,also two plates of langustines,and a Dressed crab to share,all with a salad.Served by the Lovely Emily,who went above and beyond,removing empty mussel shells and langustine heads,thank you so much Rob we will be back for the same again next week. Hey Guys,give this wonderful restaurant a try you will not be dissapointed.

The curry I had here was amazing. Restaurant was spotless. Quick service highly recommend will be back soon Even toilets were spotless

Absolutely fantastic gem of a bakery. Been coming here for years and the place never fails to serve up tasty food for the family. In today with the clan and had Thai Lentil soup (seriously great tasting soup) and all day breakfast wrap (so filling and lovely) and a top on square sausage (it always sets the bench mark of a good bakery) The team that were on today were so friendly and chatty. If you are looking for amazing well priced food look no further. Always recommended!

What an amazing place, visited for pre ferry breakfast, super friendly lady at the entrance/ till area. Allowed us in with our pooch, "so long as we were well behaved" !!! Had perfectly cooked smoked haddock and poached eggs with hollandaise sauce and soft grilled tomatoes and delish coffee. Was given 2 sausages for Lola, our Springer/ boxer cross too. Many thanks from a professional chef and former Taste of Scotland inspector. 😁

We enjoyed a really good lunch here. The food was excellent, as was the service - both friendly and efficient. Overall we couldn't fault the experience.

Stopped for lunch as we were passing through Ullapool, and was highly impressed with the haddock and chips. A large - and very nice piece of fish, beautiful batter, and with a good portion of freshly cooked chips. As a working class lad from the West Midlands I like to consider myself something of a chippie connoisseur - and these were excellent!

Had a fantastic meal here with my husband. We had the crab claw salad and scallops for starter, both were delicious, followed by the halibut for both of us(recommended by the waiting staff) it was such a great dish, perfect portion size. The staff are very friendly and attentive. The place was busy and has a great atmosphere.

Great little bake house with a delicious choice of home made foods. We called in recently and were well impressed with what was on offer.

Found this spot towards the end of our stay in Berneray. Food was really spot on, I had French onion soup to start and haunch of venison with Arran mustard mash and cabbage. So good. Service may seem a touch abrupt but actually I think that’s wrong, they were really nice.

Dirty tables. Dirty menus. My daughter was served a mouldy panini. Cheese in panini was plastic. Very dry tasteless cheese scone. Drinks not too bad.

Loved popping in to this gem in the Cairngorms. Had a delicious lunch and loved sitting in the cosy restaurant looking out into garden center. The little shop is all ready for Halloween and Christmas so was tempted to buy a few bits and bobs and should never have gone into the good market. Such tasty Italian biscuits and goodies. A really lovely place for afternoon lunch
