The best restaurants serving British food in East Sutherland and Edderton Highland Highlands and Islands

we enjoyed our one night stay here and would recommend it to anyone. Room and breakfast were perfect.

Best food on the planet. If you like eating fish go here. Just be respectful this is an institution not as casual as it comes across.

This is a cute restaurant right in the town center area. We went here for lunch and ordered a couple of their specials. The service was quick and the food was very good. This place was recommended by our hotel and I would go here again.

Amazing food, fantastic service! would highly recommend! staff were really helpful had a lovely meal.

Have used Sandstone cafe many times over the years and as usual this time it was a very pleasant experience. Great food, drink and service with a smile. Keep up the good work and see you soon.

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.

We were staying at Links House for a couple of nights and had our wedding anniversary dinner in Mara. The service from the moment you enter till you leave is simply superb and really does enhance the experience. The food was delicious and we had difficulty in choosing what to have as all seemed so appealing. I appreciate previous comments about the cost but it's not really 3 courses you are getting when you consider the tasters etc and the quality is first class We will be back.

Great little stop and interesting town. Stopped on our way to Inverness and just made an order before their deadline. The restaurant was closing an hour earlier than google posted. We had soup and sandwiches: minted pea soup was great and I had the crazy Sammy of the day; panini with tuna, bacon, Brie cheese, cranberries, and mayo. Scoff if you will: it was great!!!! Hubs had a hamburger which arrived with a fried egg on it: he loved it. The owner was warm and struck up a conversation with us on the town when we asked. In all a great little place for lunch.

At first we went into the Hotel bar, having asked if we could come in with our dog. She was made welcome and even given a biscuit. When we left we asked what was in the other room, lots of laughing going on. We were told it was the public bar and that is where we spent the night. The Crabby One watching the football and me talking to the bar staff and my dog! We worry, going into strange pubs, how will the regulars great us? There was no need to worry, we were made welcome before we got through the door. Again our dog was welcome, spoilt with biscuits. The staff were friendly to us as well as our dog, clean and tidy and the glasses even got polished, this is a dieing art!

Really good food with a good choice fast and friendly service in a relaxing atmosphere right in the centre of town so easy to find

The Fish and Chip Shop is in our experience is without a doubt the BEST IN CAITHNESS AND SUTHERLAND! The fish was white and flakes. fried in beautiful crispy batter and the chips were perfect. We have experienced other Chip Shops in Wick,Thurso and Helmsdale, plus Mobile Chip Vans in Lybsterand Dunbeath and this has been the best so far too. We travelled around 30 miles to eat here and would do so again. THANK YOU.

Lovely meal tonight. Had NC500 burger - fantastic. Starters were delicious. Partner had Steak Pie which was beautiful. Owner and staff were lovely especially the charming Zoe. Great wee lass. Highly recommend for food, drink and banter! We will definitely be back when in Helmsdale.

My husband asked what the soup was. Waitress said it was homemade vegetable soup. Blitzed. Ok so he ordered it when it came it was bright orange, he got a bit of stale crusty bread. The soup group was far from homemade. Mostly carrots. And tasted terrible, sadly he couldn't eat it Wasted money..I asked for the sweet menu. Was told the only thing that was homemade was the Apple crumble. Blatant lies again. It was shop bought. Because I know where to purchase the exact same one. No more of your dishonesty. AVOID we wasted quite a bit of money and left hungry. Never again...

We went to visit the Bears Den as the chippy in golspie was closed. However on arrival, it was closed. This wasn't mentioned anywhere on there Google page which could've been easily updated on the fly but they did not seem to do so. A 15 minute drive for nothing. I can't say anything about the food, I don't imagine it's bad but I will unfortunately not have the chance to try it due to them not managing their page properly. Not impressed!

Good menu, good prices, lovely staff. What more do you need. Well worth a visit and worth booking just in case. Family owned and they also own local farm butcher
