The best restaurants serving British food in Scotland

The hotel is an experience. The food is wonderful the beds comfortable and the cosy. Great place to stay for visits to the island. Looking forward to a visit in the summer. PLEASE finish the residents lounge.

Wat problemen gehad met reservatie. We hadden gebeld en ze zeiden dat het restaurant volledig volzet was, maar online bleek dat niet het geval. Ook als we toekwamen, hebben we het eerste halfuur helemaal alleen gezeten en toen we weggingen, was het restaurant maar half gevuld. Mindere start, maar het eten was verrukkelijk en van topkwaliteit. Klasse zaak. Het is prijzig en dat mag als je zo’n gastronomisch eten serveert, maar voor dat geld verwacht je wel dat de porties groter zijn. De voorgerechten en sommige hoofdgerechten waren echt klein.

This is a fantastic cafe with really nice helpful staff, the girls taking the orders and making the coffee were spot on. The bacon rolls were to die for. Very quick service too.

We visited last night as a big group, 8 adults and 8 children. From when we booked the service was excellent, prompt, friendly replies and we preordered with ease. We arrived and were seated quickly and drinks orders taken. Our waiter was exceptional, nothing was a hassle and he was brilliant with the kids. The food came quickly and again I would say was fantastic. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meal and the experience overall was excellent. I would 100% return and would recommend to anyone visiting the area.

We came here for dinner on a Saturday night. The service was friendly but the food was frankly poor. I ordered a sirloin steak "rare to medium rare" and it came seriously well done. It was accompanied with peas that were clearly poured out of a frozen peas bag and cooked without salt, butter or onions. My companions had fish that was clearly also frozen. Seriously disappointing that so little care was given to this meal.

Wonderful food, great views! Very nice sitting outside! Lentil soup and smoked salmon were delicious will definitely return, loved the little minature train in the front outside sitting area

Lovely restaurant situated in the courtyard, decently priced food etc, after your visit or before the house tour, its advisable to take a bottle of water on the house tour, there is a lift for those with mobility issues, many stairs.

Lovely looking cafe in Glasgow's West End. I had haddock with some coleslaw, my partner had burger and chips, and we both had a mug of tea each. My haddock initially had a strange taste and I soon realised it was the tartare sauce. It was horrible! I ate what I could of the rest but the tartare sauce left a nasty taste in my mouth. That said, I had a few chips from my girlfriend's plate and they were very nice. No grease at all, and in fairness the fish wasn't greasy either. My girlfriend didn't really enjoy her burger saying that the bun didn't taste great and the Gold Star tomato ketchup wasn't great either. The lady who served us though was so welcoming and friendly and a credit to this place. She was lovely and the tip we gave was for her. The cafe is basic but equally quite stylish with exposed brickwork lit up which I liked, and the prices were OK. Please, please, please though get rid of them tartare sauce sachets. I know Gold Star tomato ketchup is what chippies in Scotland use so I can't really suggest changing. I did like the coleslaw though. Food. 6/10 Service. 10/10

We had booked 3 nights stay here but were a day late arriving as our ferry was cancelled, owing to fog. A 7 unit site with 2 showers with a toilet in the same room [En-suite]. One of the rooms was, imo, suitable for disabled guests. The facilities were clean with no extra charge for the showers. As the area was "remote" from the main site - hundred yards away and out of sight of the main site - access through the gate, into the shower/toilet block and chemical disposal point was by padlock code or Door Key Code. It worked and probably necessary as adjacent to the main road but slightly annoying. Good water supply and Grey water runoff easily accessed. The most expensive site we used in our holiday through the Outer Hebrides but West Harris Trust is a Community Charity so any profits presumably channelled back into Community Projects

Had lunch in here we had the soup and sandwich deal the soup was beautiful I had lentil and my sister had Parsip both very tasty and homemade the sandwich I had was chicken mayonnaise was full with chicken and sister had prawn marirose she said hers was lovely so would definitely recommend in here and service was excellent

WORST lunch i was ever served. Inedible. I ordered hadock as menu cut to the bone. Fish was only dish i thought might be edible. I opted for salad to accompany the fish. Drowned in oil. Chips were cold, fish was awful. I was ill for 3 days after i got home. They should be shut down permanantly. 00 out of 10.

5 star service food and staff excellent. Can’t fault the hotel rooms very clean and the view is stunning will definitely be back

Fantastic place for breakfast! So welcoming and accommodating different diets! Best service best food best hostess! Best prices!❤️❤️

There were four of us and we all rated The Merkister highly! Indeed it shared top place of our many dining places during a two week stay in Orkney. The welcome was warm, the service excellent, quiet and gentle and venue pretty amazing. We all ate different dishes and were all 'wowed' by what we selected. The Westray Seafood Parcel for starter was simply amazing and the seafood salad exquisite - as was the monkfish curry! Hopefully the Merkister will be at the top of the dining out list when we return to Orkney - twice - in 2025. Top marks all around.

We had a lovely lunch, everything was perfect; the asthonishing view, the nice setting, the sea food platter, the friendly service, even the music was great. Would definitely book here if ever I come back to Skye!
