Reviews on Soups food in Staffin, Scotland, United Kingdom. Staffin (Scottish Gaelic: Stafain) is a district with the Gaelic name An Taobh Sear, which translates as 'the East Side', on the northeast coast of the Trotternish peninsula of the island of Skye. It is located on the A855 road about 17 miles (27 km) north of Portree and is overlooked by the Trotternish Ridge with the famous rock formations of The Storr and the Quiraing. The district comprises 23 townships made up of, from south to north, Rigg, Tote, Lealt, Lonfearn, Grealin, Breackry, Cul-nan-cnoc, Bhaltos, Raiseburgh, Ellishader, Garafad, Clachan, Garros, Marrishader, Maligar, Stenscholl, Brogaig, Sartle, Glasphein, Digg, Dunan, Flodigarry and Greap. The Kilmartin River runs northwards through the village. From where it reaches the sea a rocky shore leads east to a slipway at An Corran. Here a local resident found a slab bearing a dinosaur track, probably made by a small ornithopod. Experts subsequently found more dinosaur prints of up to 50 cm, the largest found in Scotland, made by a creature similar to Megalosaurus. At about 160 million years old they are the youngest dinosaur remains to be found in Scotland.

Due to the rating on tripadvisor we thought we would give this place a try when passing. We ordered tomato and basil soup with home-bread bread, followed by nougat cake and tiffin. The soup was hot and delicious and the home-bread was soft and dreamy which is exactly what was needed when it was raining outside. Both cakes were made with dark chocolate, very rich but incredible tasty! Inside there is a collection of artwork on sale which is interesting to look at, there were only 3 tables and a weaving machine, the owner does say if you wish a demonstration on how to weave this could be arranged. In the cafe beside the menu, Ellishadder Art Cafe explains how it started and how they grow a lot of the ingredients used which is very inspiring. This is a lovely little place which is worth a visit.

Three of us called in for lunch. We were made very welcome. The tomato and basil soup was lovely and filling. The coffee and homemade cakes were equally good. An excellent place for lunch.

...but no dogs allowed. Why?!!?Get into the 21st century. Dogs are like kids, no problem if quiet and well behaved, or ask them to leave.My science is a little rusty but, as a very experienced dog owner and father of three kids, this may clarify things."Dogs": a domesticated carnivorous mammal that typically has a long snout, an acute sense of smell, non-retractable claws, and a barking, howling, or whining voice."Kids": children, young people, the transitional juvenile stage of a human being.21st Century Comparisons ....Dogs ..........Kids=========================================Cleans self with tongue .........often ...........rarelyCapable of using a toilet .......never ..........mostlySmells when wet ...................definitely .....sometimesDries self by shaking .............always ........rarelyLicks the floor ........................happily ........reluctantlySheds hair .............................often ...........rarelyAttracted by carrion ...............mostly .........sometimesMay be tethered outside .......often ............neverUnderstands what a cafe is ...incapable ....mostlySociety expects "kids" to be allowed to experience different social settings in order for them to learn new skills and develop into fully rounded adults.
