The best restaurants serving British food in Aird and Loch Ness Highland Highlands and Islands

We were there for New Years Eve. Led into dinner by the piper set the scene. Dinner was delicious. Everyone was very sociable. The team looked after us really well. Great music and dancing up to abbd after the bells. Thank you for another memorable Hogmanay!

We visited a lot of restaurants and hotels on our way through the Scottish Highlands. This restaurant pleasantly surprised us. Best dinner and food of the entire stay in Scotland. Nice staff, atmosphere in the restaurant and excellent food. We recommend !!!

We had a wonderful meal here from starter to dessert, the menu is very well put together. I had the scallops to start, beef fillet for main and Delice for dessert, all highly recommended, the beef main course was one of the best pieces of beef I have ever had. Simply outstanding!!

This is a wonderful peaceful spot with lovely views looking our over the wooded campsite. The cafe feels very relaxed and choices of food and drink were tasty. Staff very friendly. I just love coming here!

This was to be our one night of “luxurious accommodation” after touring for 10 days in b&b’s. Turns out that the b&b’s were the luxury (Water’s Edge Cottage on Loch Lomond, Heatherfield House on Skye and Springfield Lodge in Stirling, all superb 5*). Paid £229.50 for one night back in March for a Superior double room, which now looks nothing like the current photo on the web site. Old fashioned especially the bathroom, room overlooked the loch but through a small window you needed to be standing up to see through. Decided not to eat here so it was fish and chips in the car in Fort Augustus. Much more expensive than the rest so our verdict was “very “disappointing” and a poor choice. Wine by the bottle not the glass!

Just visited this lovely pub/restaurant with friends who live locally. Rob & Ang made us feel so welcome. The food was excellent, highly recommend this place to go

Give this place a miss. Bar/restaurant was empty when we called in and now we know why! Felt like a throw back to 1930s. No atmosphere. Cutlery was filthy. My seafood platter was nice but husband's venison was overcooked. Barman (owner?) was pleasant enough but we were constantly watched over by his lady partner, who made us feel unwelcome and uncomfortable.

Visited in September 2024 whilst on holiday, we couldn’t take dogs inside (fair enough) but we then asked if we could eat outside and was told no, asked if we could just get a drink outside and was also told no. What’s the point in putting tables outside? Terrible hospitality - I wouldn’t bother giving them your money, let alone my own.

A lovely place to stop after a walk around the town - great coffee and cakes and dog friendly.

We stayed three nights at the Tomich Hotel to be close to the hiking in Glenn Affric and it was the perfect location to base camp out of for our stay. The weather was quite variable in August so we liked being close to home when the weather would inevitably turn. Glenn Affric is very quiet, we saw very few people in the best way possible and likewise enjoyed the calm of The Tomich Hotel. We were thankful for the pack lunches the hotel chef prepared for us and for hot breakfast in the morning AND dinner in the evening. There is not a lot of other dining nearby so it was nice that everything could be taken care of food wise right at the Hotel. (The cafe next door has wonderful sandwiches and soups in the morning / early afternoon.) If you like peace and quiet and being on the doorstep of incredible scenery and hiking, this is the perfect place for you.

Food rather low-level. Tourist prices

We highly recommend this hotel for food. We went this morning, and we were very pleased we did. They do all day snacks, and 2 course lunch for £13.95. Husband had a baon & egg roll and tea. I had millionaire shortbread and a cafetiere of coffee with the choice of hot or cold milk. It was very busy, considering there are 2 other restaurant/cafès in the village. I would think it would be advisable to book for lunch. Excellent - 10/10 from us !! We will definitely be back.

Tasty food with a great view of Lochness. The staff are lovely and they have a good selection of whisky. Good value 3 course meal deal.

Had a lovely lunch in a charming tearoom. Staff were friendly and helpful and the food was delicious. Really interesting shop attached with lots of different souvenirs.. bit different from the mainstream!

I just don’t get it. Thought reviews must be for a different place. Pros: bed and shower good; very nice hostess, good full breakfast. Cons: can’t get over smell in my room-overpowering in not a good way. No laundry as stated in Booking.com. Room describes a courtyard view, in reality it’s an over grown garden that is in much need of tending. Entire place appears to be a DIY project that needs serious attention.
