The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Highland Highlands and Islands

Your restaurant came highly recommended and the food and wine was absolutely superb. Unfortunately this is where the great experience ended as we have never been made to feel so uncomfortable in a restaurant by the people serving us, to the point that we couldn't wait to pay the bill and leave! We were the first table in the evening at 5pm and were seated right by the bar but we struggled to get eye contact with the staff who were either chatting behind the bar or staring into space. At no point did they ask us if everything was ok or if we wanted another drink. We tried to engage them in some chatter when they served us but to no avail. I don't know if in someway we offended them but we really could not work out what we had done wrong to be treated this way. Unfortunately we will not be returning, which is a shame as the food is excellent. Fortunately our evening was not completely spoiled as a visit to the local community centre in Nairn found us invited to a Ceilidh and a very warm welcome and fun evening.

We stayed at Taigh Ailean for our trip to Skye. We also had the opportunity to eat dinner there (Breakfast was included with our stay.) The dinner was so delicious! The view is lovely as you can see the loch from the windows of the bar. All the staff is fantastic and so friendly! I had a great dinner and I would describe it, but the menu changes to suit what is in season and available from the sea. Whatever you get, I guarantee it will be the best! Make sure you call ahead and get a reservation as it fills up quickly. I know that they also have live music, which would be great, but we didn't have any while we were there.

Lovely friendly cafe with delicious coffee, great selection of yummy cakes and an excellent cooked breakfast. They do more but that’s all we sampled on several visits while on holiday! Highly recommend a visit

Food was nice and service was, for the most part, friendly. One server seemed to be having a bad day. Brusque and barely civil. Very expensive for what was served.

Milk bar makes a mean Flat White! Love the fact that the milk is brought in fresh daily and beans are roasted daily.

Thomas and the team at Links are fantastic - food was fabulous - we tried the Cullen Skink and it was delicious. So was the Lasagne and the chicken dishes. Great value for money and definitely a 6 out of 5 score for us 👍 And the views are stunning too 👌

Tutto squisito! Per pranzo abbiamo voluto provare il seafood platter e il panino scottish laddle. Che prelibatezza! Il patè di sgombro meraviglioso, mentre la coleslaw divina. Il panino superbo. Complimenti!

Called as a pitstop on a tour. OMG fabulous coffee and the bakes were amazing. Spoilt for choice as everything looked fantastic and a great view of Eilean Donna!

We always visit Portmahomack on our annual holiday in the Highlands and have enjoyed several visits to the cafe. We found out last year that the cafe had changed hands and have visited again this year. Friendly staff and excellent food so still deserving of 5 stars.

Excellent take away coffee by the Cromarty - Nigg ferry terminal. Lovely to sit outside on the Cromarty Firth. Lovely looking traybakes and cakes too. Very busy. Dog friendly inside.

Our fourth year coming here and cannot wait to be in the area again to visit . Our holidays to Skye are not complete without a visit to this beautiful little tearoom. Pumpkin soup and a cheesecake , washed down with the best coffee on Skye. All whilst soaking in the majesty of Bla Bheinn and Loch Slappin. Fabulous hosts , fabulous food , fabulous views . What more could you ask for ?

Love the refurb they have done to the shop and also the outside seating area. Owners are always looking at ways to update and keep up to date with speed off service. Pre covid you waited in the cafe however the set up now order in shop and then your number is called is so quick. I was well impressed. I travel from Inverness but always stop , so many places need to take a leaf out off the couple who run this and step up their game . A gold mine . Well done

What a great place. If you are ever in the area then do visit and leave feeling uplifted. We went for breakfast on our way to the Armadale ferry and the staff could not have been any friendlier. Coffee was excellent and the food was superb. The whole place has such a friendly vibe and, although only small, they bend over backwards to get people in if that is what they are looking for. They also provide an excellent take away service which we used to take cakes away with us (they have such a huge selection of cakes on offer). So, do stop for a coffee and cake if passing by, we wish we could have visited more.

Very tasty home baked goodies. Lovely drinks and range of tasty treats. Cakes and sausage rolls delicious. Visited twice in a week. First time for Takeaway en route / second time to buy some snacks and drinks to take on our jetty boat trip (next door@salen sail jetty) Takeaway works for us but eat in also doable as there are a couple of tables indoors also. Shop also well stocked and staff friendly and helpful. Clean and well cared for and worth a visit.

Fantastic food and friendly staff. Best fish and chips I've had for a long time, also beautiful breakfasts. Dogs are welcomed.
