The best restaurants serving British food in Highland Highlands and Islands

Absolutely superb. Hot smoked salmon starter was one of the best I’ve had, and the venison main also fantastic. However, the wonderful, relaxed atmosphere and great staff elevate this place still further. Brilliant. Worth a detour.

This was my second visit to CDN now in the new location of Mey Hotel (a very nice small and friendly hotel nicely renovated) the meal and wine flight were outstanding every innovative serving a great pleasure - some excellent ingredients surprisingly presented to a very high standard / best meal in Scotland on our three week tour of seafood restaurants !!!!

Well, what can I say. Stayed here for two nights to attend a funeral. I knew it was going to be great when, arriving at 22 45, Kieron welcomed me and I climbed the stairs to my single room…..and the floors creaked. Allways a good sign of an excellent hotel when the floors do that, never failed me. Fantastic little room, attention to detail was superb. Breakfast was out of this world, skillfully prepared and beautifully presented. I didnt need lunch…….. Superb “wake” served for around 30 people , amazing soup, sandwiches, tea and coffee and chocolate pudding to die for, so light and guilt free ! Meal in the bistro for me, two cousins and my 9? year old Aunty after the wake.Ina could not have been more attentive. Enjoy this couples excellent service while you can, retirement beckons for them after 23 years !

Lucky to find that dinner was available on one of the nights. The meal was excellent. Extremely well cooked, presented and served. Don't miss the opportunity to eat there if you can. Elaine is a great cook/chef.

Found this place after a morning of fishing and so glad we did! Great takeaway set up, super friendly service, cakes clearly made with passion, they were to die for! We couldn’t decide which to buy so bought all 4! Was going to save two for later, but they were too good to keep, so ate all 4 with a lush cuppa overlooking the sea - mmmmm delicious! Thank you for sharing a little slice of happiness with us!

Donald very kindly offered us a Xmas dinner at his gorgeous bistro on the 20th December. The restaurant would normally be shut over the winter season as it is so remote. His Cullen Skink was outstanding as was our delicious xmas dinner finished off with homemade treacle pudding! Delicious food and such friendly welcoming hosts. We will be back! Thanks again Sophie & Family

La primera vez que he estado en este café. Tienes grandes porciones casi demasiado para mí. Volveré. La comida y el servicio era de 5 * y un buen ambiente tranquilo 👍

Everything was perfect, the food, the service, the internet. Very reasonable prices. Would recommend the bacon Brie cranberry panini. Very glad I found this cafe open in January.

I stayed for one night only - having heard about this place, and pounced on the single slot when I saw it. It's worth the drive up from Glasgow and ferry from Mallaig to get here even for one night: my room was spacious, beautifully furnished and very comfortable, with a seating area with a view of the amazing beach. The owner Sue is a warm, charming host and an absolutely amazing cook, providing a fantastic three-course dinner while sloshing wine into glasses and encouraging guests and other diners to relax and interact. Breakfast is awesome, as the Americans say. I hired a bike and sweated up (then down) the hill to get here, but don't be put off by that - the island taxi/minibus is always on-hand, and they do excellent tea and cakes at their base nearly next door - but that's another story.

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

Brilliant late afternoon early evening with a tipsy tea! Food was excellent and an array of cocktails to choose from. They were fabulous. Kids had a selection of mocktails. Brilliant value for money. Great time had by all. Lovely staff. Xx

What a lovely cafe run by two of the kindest people ever. I arrived exhausted after a cycle ride with miles still to go. They made me special gluten free rolls, I ate delicious vegan sorbet and they even defrosted a gluten free brownie to give me the energy to cycle up the hill to Inverness (and I did it)! Thank you!! Great coffee too. Small place with a big heart. Recommend 100%

This place is a hidden gem! We were driving by and found it by chance. The crispy chicken burger was really tasty. My kids loved the nachos and loaded fries. The food quality and taste were amazing, and the prices were very affordable. If you’re in the area, it's a must-try, and the view from the place is breathtaking.

Great cafe. I had a bacon bun and a pot of tea ( big pot , three mugs ). Nice girls , even charged my phone as I was in a bit of a pickle.

Fabulous food and great service. Thoroughly recommend both the venison stew and the sea trout! Advisable to book as it’s not huge and it has a great reputation with the locals…
