The best restaurants serving British food in Highland Highlands and Islands

Lovely little cosy pub with nice seating. Bar man was very warm and friendly and chatted us nicely about our trip. I think his name was Eddie, he was a gentleman.

No food on offer other than crisps, ice cream and a meagre offering of cake, shocked as we were there for a 1pm show and had travelled over an hour thinking we would be fine for lunch at the theatre. Staff were fine, no hint of getting things done in a timely fashion and not much interaction with customers. Decor is depressing, such a big space makes it cold and echoey. Just no atmosphere whatsoever. Very disappointed and won't be back.

Excellentes coquilles Saint Jacques Réservez de préférence comme pour tous les restaurant à Ullapool. Bonne restauration globalement depuis des années... prix raisonnable.

9 of us staying next door at Premier Inn paid for breakfast . Scrambled eggs, never seen them so watery and near white in colour taste disgusting 😝. Fried eggs warm and rock hard. Sausages good bacon not great . Berry fruit lovely coffee OK. Not worth the £9.95 better off in Morrisons across the road. Evening meal worse service very poor chicken dry and uneatable left most of my food and so did others in my party.

Wir waren im Rahmen einer Schottlandrundreise im September 2024 zum Glück nur für eine Nacht in diesem Hotel untergebracht. Von aussen sieht es nett und gepflegt aus. Auch der Empfang war sehr freundlich. Das war es dann aber auch. Das Gebäude ist so verwinkelt, dass wir und etliche andere Reisende auf der Suche nach unseren Zimmern länger über die Flure geirrt sind. Sämtliche Bodendielen, auch die im Zimmer über uns, knarzten bei jedem Schritt laut und deutlich. Das Waschbecken mit einem Hahn für warmes und einem Hahn für kaltes Wasser befand sich ausserhalb des winzigen Bades direkt im Zimmer. Was den Flachbildfernseher betrifft: Jeder PC würde sich schämen, wenn er mit so einem kleinen Monitor ausgestattet wäre. Was uns und etlichen anderen Gästen dann aber endgültig die Sprache verschlagen hat: In der Dusche hing an der Wand unmittelbar neben dem Duschkopf ein elektrischer Durchlauferhitzer, der aussen am Bad erst eingeschaltet werden musste,bevor man warmes Wasser bekam. Jedem deutschen Elektriker würden bei DEM Anblick die Haare senkrecht stehen.Etliche Mitreisende haben sicherheitshalber am Morgen aufs Duschen verzichtet. Das Abendessen war ok, das Frühstück hingegen äusserst dürftig.

Roads End Cafe is a lifesaver at this time of the year, we were on the NC500 and fancied a bite to eat when we got to John o Groats. It is such a basic cafe but still serves hot toasties/sandwiches, soup and small cakes/scones. The lady that served us was lovely, so welcoming and willing to go the extra mile, she even recommended the haggis and cheese toastie which I couldn't turn down. Since it was so quiet, it was takeaway only but she let us sit in due to the gale force winds outside. I have to say the toasties are the best I have had in a while and not even that expensive despite the location, absolutely fantastic. It is a little gem if you're looking for something eat when you reach the most northernly point in Scotland!

Dont be put off my first impressions of this hotel. The hotel is under new ownership and are refurbishing the hotel. The rooms are lovely and modern with wide screen TV . There are four rooms and i belive to be 5 eventually. The position is stunning right by the water and if you lucky you can see dolphins, seals and otters. we spent the evening watching the sailing boats going past and the small ferry which runs hourly and the amazing sunset. The new owners are lovely and go out of there way to make you feel welcome. We will go back for sure .. thank you for the perfect stay

Bonito lugar. Buenas bebidas y productos interesantes. Excepto por vender cosas navideñas en octubre. ¡Indignante! La Navidad pertenece a diciembre, no a octubre.

Un lugar donde comer una comida tradicional sencilla calidad, precio asequible el personal es agradable, se implica la cocina verdura bueno postres la bodega no muy extensa el local un poco de cuidado los postres buenos y caseros se puede volver

We had a lovely meal here, the vegetarian options were great - I had a sweet potato, red onion and seed tart with chips and salad and it was delicious! The interior is gorgeous, it's clean and modern yet still has old fashioned touches. I will definitely be back!

Bon et pas excessif. Il y a une assez jolie vue si le parking n est pas trop plein. Et le personnel est très sympathique. On a prix deux plats deux boissons et deux desserts pour 53 livres

Ordentliches kleines Café. Auch wenn hier häufig Bustouren einkehren, so hat es einen gewissen Charme. Natürlich ist es ein Selbstbedienungscafé, aber hier draussen erwarte ich jetzt auch keinen Luxusservice. Es werden einige warme Gerichte oder auch Kuchen angeboten. Die Backkartoffel ist eine gute Wahl. Preise sind angemessen.

Gorgeous outdoor dining which is what attracted us on a hot July day after Loch Ness shops nearby. Tiny menu and pretty expensive, cashing in on the tourist trade I assume. Ordered a cheeseburger for £15 and to say it was basic is an understatement. The chips were like nothing I’ve ever seen, looked like someone had hacked away at a potato. We also had a tuna melt panini, could have played a long game of “spot the filling”, disgraceful for a £10 panini. First time I’ve paid £6 for a 330ml tin of IPA. Service was sloppy, the young lad looked like he wanted to be anywhere else and could barely be bothered to speak. The only redeeming feature was shortbread which was delicious but at £4 for a small slice - so it should be! I can only assume they are not relying on repeat custom and cashing in on tourists who will pay the prices, just for the location.

We arrived at the hotel early evening from a day out and didn’t want to try and find somewhere local to eat. The restaurant wasn’t particularly busy and I wonder how much business these attached restaurants have lost since Premier Inn took over the running. When we arrived there were two members of staff working the bar - one serving and the other one sorting out a refund - perhaps we should have seen that as a warning. We were shown to our table and told that we needed to order at the bar. Menu is varied as you would expect from this type of eatery. We ordered two lasagnas and a side of chili beef loaded for fries and a bottle of wine. The staff taking the order couldn’t grasp the menu when I asked for the ‘go large’ for the chips and kept saying I was ordering 2 portions - no it’s one portion just large. I paid for the main meal as wasn’t sure if a dessert was needed. Quite a wait for the food to arrive, considering it wasn’t busy at all. Lasagnas were as you would expect, basic. However the chips were the strangest and I think the chef was confused as we had breaded chicken included with the chili beef loaded - you could have loaded chips with katsu chicken but we got a mixture of both - not the nicest. I went back to the bar to order dessert.which was taken by the person who checked us into the hotel. After 20 mins I went back to check on the dessert and was told ‘oh do you want me to make those now?’. No I ordered them 20 minutes ago - ‘did you tell us you were ready for them’ - no I didn’t order them at the same time as the main so why would I think I needed to tell you. Strangest ordering system ever and if you are operating this way then at least tell your guests this is the procedure. I asked for a refund and even though I paid for the two desserts together they had to be refunded separately. The members of staff on couldn’t cope with serving at the bar, arranging refunds and acknowledging guests waiting to be seated. I think Premier Inn should stick to what they do best and leave the hospitality to the experts, certainly won’t be eating there again.

The coffee is exceptionally good as you'd expect from a coffee shop. The cheesecake is a revelation, although I've been a veggie for 35 years, I've never knowingly had a vegan cheesecake before, it was superb. The bookshop is fantastic, I could spend hours in that shop.
