The best restaurants in Scotland

I normally love the food in baynes but the black pudding breakfast roll is awfull got it one Sunday it was like a brick but thought they had an issue as the woman had to bin all the bacon for some reason so thought i would try it again but same one bit was crunchy and the other bit was full of oil definitely won't give it a 3rd try will stick to my Lorne sausage.

Most dodgy place I've ever heard of, I live 7 hours away from this broken down looking building, they called me yesterday which I missed the call, I have just called back to see why they are trying to call me since I live probably 400 miles away and was greeted by a male who was very rude and denied calling and started asking what company I work for and then put the phone down, this has now been reported to the fraudulent team with the address and contact details, everyone should be careful what information this place may be taking from you, I have never heard or been to this place but someone still tried to call me and then denied it once calling back and was very rude and put the call down, screenshot attached of the call they denied making.

Christine you are a star cake coffee milkshake soup toastie there is nothing you can’t do Absolutely love this warm welcoming coffee shop

Friendly staff, felt very welcome without being stifled. Lovely cafe with home cooked foods. We arrived in time for lunch service. Great selection for all. I had homemade Cullen Skink, best I have ever tasted! Ordered 2 children's meals too of chicken breast burger and Mac n Cheese. Deluxe hot chocolate was amazing, piled high in cream, Marsh mallows and chocolate. Very reasonable prices for home cooked food. Highly recommended. Busy place and rightly so!

Was horrified when a staff member petted a dog and then returned behind the counter to serve without washing hands. Needless to say we won't be back.

Stayed at Dalbeattie for a couple of days and decided to treat ourselves to a Chinese Takeaway from Sea Horse. The service was very prompt and the food was absolutely excellent and portions huge. (And so well priced as well!) I genuinely do not understand some of the poor reviews. This was the BEST chinese takeaway food we have had in a long time. 😋😋😋😋😋😋

We ate twice at Scarista House Restaurant during our recent trip to Harris. We have dined here before on previous visits over the last 20 years and this year it was better than ever. Beautifully prepared local food. First menu - Twice baked cheese soufflé, followed by Stornoway landed hake in a delicious sauce and some delicious vegetables. and then a chocolate roulade!. Second menu - goats cheese, courgette and cheese raviol with a nettle pesto (amazing!) followed by local hand dived scallops and the most delicious lemon tart with excellent pastry, lemon verbena ice cream and a strawberry and pink peppercorn coulis. Fabulous! Highly recommend the cooking here! An absolute delight!

This little cafe serves amazing freshly made Vegan and Vegetarian food. We had delicious Thai dishes mine was tofu and vegetables in tamarind sauce with noodles- one of the best tasting dishes ever! They have a standard menu plus lots of specials. Also cakes and desserts Very reasonable prices with good service.

The Dean is a great place to go for food and beverages before or after a tour of the National Mining Museum in Newtongrange. We had their special house pasta and pizza. Both were very tasty and service was quick and friendly. This is a local place, so prices were very reasonable.

Went for a family members 80th birthday ( group of 22) staff were very attentive, great selection of food everyone enjoyed their meal.

We found this Cafe using Trip Advisor on our way to Girvan. Just 5 minute detour from the main road, was worth it. No parking by the premises, so parked just around the corner. 2 minutes walk. Cafe was welcoming, light and lively. Coffee for myself and Wife, and my daughter had smashing mango smoothie. Our waitress was nice and friendly. Recommended for a quick stop from Coffee or a snack.

Visited on an unseasonably cold Sunday morning in October. It was slightly cold in the indoor seating area and some people had their coats on whilst eating. Staff were really friendly and served up a warm hearty soup with delicious sandwiches and fresh bread. Coffee was excellent. The food was slightly expensive but I think it's worth paying a bit more to support an independent business. Would definitely return and recommend this place to anyone.

I stayed 1 night here while walking the West Highland Way. Lovely double room by the stream (might be a bit midget earlier in the year). Shared shower room, but with just one other room. Clean, warm and comfortable. Good WiFi. Dinner in the Top Bunk was great. Venison stew with dumplings and garlic potatoes. One of the best meals of my trip.

We arrived after walking from Craigellachie. Our walking instructions had said that the owners would pick us up at Ballindalloch Station, but when we phoned we were told that this was no longer the case, and we had to walk another 1.5 miles in the pouring rain. After a struggle to work out what direction the hotel was in, we contacted the owner again who didn't seem to know where we were. We eventually worked it out with google Maps. However the hotel was pleasant and the showers were particularly good. There is a set menu at £30 per head, offering only one choice for each course. We would have preferred to maybe have a choice of 2 menus. The rooms were good and the staff were lovely. We found the drinks to be expensive. Breakfast was nice and the lady who serves breakfast was lovely.
