The best restaurants serving British food in Highlands and Islands

Tom went way and beyond to get me the food I wanted today and it was served perfectly hot and quickly also my hot chocolate was delicious

Wonderful venue, licensed cafe, sea view. Lovely staff, so glad we checked as it said it was closed. New hat for husband as thy had them& paintings for sale

We visited Canna for a couple of nights in September during glorious weather. We'd only planned one meal at Cafe Canna. but we stopped in for lunch after disembarking the ferry the food was so magnificent we were back for lunch every day. The seafood platter is amazing, so fresh and superbly cooked and everyone is so friendly. It's worth the journey to Canna just for the cafe, we will be back!

We went there for dinner on Thursday night for our anniversary. When we had finished our two courses the waitress presented us with the bill even though we hadn't asked for it. She said take your time there is no rush. We were still drinking our wine when she appeared with the card machine even though we hadn't aksed. I was so taken aback that I just paid. I decided to compain about the way we were treated. I spoke to the manager who offered us a bottle of wine as compensation. The watress also added on a 10% service charge which she didn't deserve. She was rude and abrupt and seemed to single us out as she didn't do this to any of the other diners. I am appalled at the way we were treated.

Mara is a great restaurant, and the sommelier is always next level with their wine pairings and cocktails. The mussel crumpet was an absolute delight, and the chocolate souffle was heavenly. My husband really enjoyed the guinea fowl starter - suggesting it was like an elevated and elegant coronation chicken dish. Fully recommend, and also great for breakfast if staying overnight!

Visited this cafe today, the scenery was amazing, SHAME THE SAME CAN NOT BE SAID FOR THE SERVICE….. extremely rude staff. Plenty of other local places ! AVOID.

We know the Tongue area very well, and like to eat locally, so it was obvious we would decide to eat at the Craggan, and i'm happy we did! The restaurant area is welcoming and clean, staff friendly, and the car park was easy even with a big van. The only problem was choosing from the menu! So many tasty things - i wish we had more time to visit again.. All three of us enjoyed our food, and we shared everything so i know it was all delicious. Thank you for making a rather wet evening so special..

we came here quite hungry for lunch and we really enjoyed it. we got the veggie breakfast as well as the soup combo and everything was very tasty and was very fresh. definitely recommended.

Afternoon tea Cannot fault the quality of the food or the wonderful room, BUT the experience was spoilt for us when charged over £3 for fresh tea. Tea is served in pots that go cold very quickly, and to be charged for more is just miserly. Other establishments cheerfully keep fresh tea coming. I know which I'd go back to...... Also, beware the service charge which is not mentioned on the menu, another negative.

We made a "reservation" via the web site enquiry facility. We were offered a choice of times. We replied with our selection. We arrived at the appointed time to be met by the owner saying that they had no record of our reservation and could do nothing for us because they only had food prepped for their expected guests, I showed him my email reply to which he said that he had never seen it and would talk to his IT people the next day! That was it. No empathy, no attempt to resolve the problem. We had to leave, organise transport and find a way to rescue a disastrous evening planned as a birthday celebration. Fortunately we found a restaurant that had food available and was flexible enough to serve customers at short notice. I don't know how good the food is at The Cross and won't ever attempt to find out. If you risk a reservation don't rely upon technology, nail it down.

Quick stop for coffee. Great friendly service beautiful and huge cakes - we had a coffee & walnut and a hummingbird. Latte was a decent size, good temperature and smooth tasting. Good price and nice surroundings.

We had: the award-winning steak and black pudding pie, scotch pie, and soup of the day. To be honest, it seems like all restaurants / food places are "award-winning". The food was decent - nothing special. The customer service was pretty sub-par - it did feel quite rushed and not smiley. However, it is a convenient place to grab a quick bite when walking around Fort William.

Gezellige bar en goed eten. Prijzen voor de whisky's zijn zeer goed. Komen hier graag weer terug. Personeel is zeer vriendelijk.

Amazing food. We didn't know what to expect as from the outside it looks like a school. There is plenty of parking. When we got inside we found them very welcoming. When the food arrived it was wonderful. We couldn't fault anything. The toasties are deliscious and so was the soup. We took cakes away with us for later. Great selection.

Very friendly staff, fantastic view outside, nice dining area with a very delicious menu, nice clean and tidy room, we really enjoyed our stay there.
