One of the best beef burgers I've ever had in my life. Stopped there on the way to Skye and will stop there for lunch on the way back out. Splendid, excellent, comfortable, friendly. Thanks.

The whole show: great food. Great service, and a wonderful nature context and background. Food seems self grown, and the menu is full of options veggie, meaty and Indian. I’d love to try the stay my next time around!

This was the place to eat!!! It was the only place open that we could find along the route to Inverness. And im glad we took the chance to stop in and eat!! Most places are strictly reservations only for some odd reason and I was so thankful they were not!! The staff were all very kind and courteous! Definitely one of the best places on our list of places we have eaten!!

A fabulous place for a meal. A variety of food on the menu including some authentic Scottish dishes (which were superb). We had the Scottish stew and Haggis, neeps and tatties . There is an extensive drinks menu with a wide variety of whisky and ale. The staff were super polite and friendly and made us feel very welcome.

We weren’t sure of what to expect with a very diverse menu but the food was fantastic and quickly made. We had the butternut squash soup of the day, fish and chips, burger, spaghetti with chicken, haggis, and Bombay toastie. Everything was delicious and hot, excellent service. Great portion size too. A little expensive but it’s in a touristy area so that’s to be expected. Would eat here again! Also - there’s highland cows at the Inn next door so huge plus!!!!

Surprisingly good food but a bit more costly than I expected. The Philly steak and cheese was amazing. Their club sandwich was served hot and was good but quite heavy on the stomach. The pizza was pretty good too (very thin and crispy) which I'm sure is not to everyone's taste but I liked it. The highlight was the hilarious latte art.

There is very little on this long stretch of highway to Isle of Skye. This was our destination along the way to stop for lunch. If you go this way, you know the views to Skye are phenomenal !! And this restaurant situated amongst the huge mountains and picturesque background is just amazing. There is also gas available. The restaurant itself is very tastefully decorated. Service was very nice, prompt, friendly. Had a craft beer which was great. Kids menu available with good options - our son had mac n cheese with very lovely cheese blend, yum! I had the spicy chicken burger - it was AMAZING. Honestly the best chicken burger I've had. Super saucy which is how I like it, nice and spicy, well cooked. DELICIOUS. Please stop here along the way.
