Tingle Creek Restaurant

Reviewed By Southside_Travels

As we were staying at the hotel we decided to eat here also......the restuarant has limited opening hours between 6pm and 8.30pm.......and it's probably best to book as it gets busy. The menu has plenty choice. Butternut squash soup to start was very nice as was the home baked bread. The cod for main was really nice and the venison steak was cooked very well. If you have room for dessert the salted caramel cake was lovely! We were lucky to be seated at the window with the stunning views over to Skye! The girls who were waiting the tables worked very hard to make the experience enjoyable so all credit goes to them.....they didn't stop the whole night!! I would definately recommend the restuarant if you are staying at tingle creek!!

Plockton Shores Restaurant

Reviewed By Sue B

Great welcome from really friendly staff. Relaxed atmosphere. The menu of dishes identified as surfy, turfy, or wee includes some great choices and very good value. The mussels were beautifully presented, really tasty and although from the "wee" choices a good sized portion.

Reviewed By rudyfizz

Loved the place and the produce all looks amazing with a seafood tinge to the options but i went for a sausage roll which was fantastic.I normally always have a coffee everywhere but £3.50 for a flat white is the most expensive I have seen anywhere (Previous Record was £3.20 in Soho London) so i decided against it. Food also on the pricey side but I think if they get the price point correct then these guys are onto a winner for sure. Good luck to all at Gun Ainm.

The Croft Cafe

A GREAT PLACE TO MEET AND EAT. Serving delicious dishes from the land, sea, soups, snacks and afternoon tea.

Reviewed By Shazymurph

When we arrived in the afternoon they had just finished serving afternoon tea so we had coffee and cake. Lovely butternut squash cake and pear and bramble. We decided to go back for dinner and weren’t disappointed. Best meal of our weekend away. Black pudding with goats cheese and Cullen skink to start followed by Vegetarian lasagne and a cheeseburger. Delicious.

Caol Cafe

Reviewed By weewummin

My Husband and I have visited Caol Cafe several times and have never been disappointed. The Cafe has a lovely relaxing atmosphere with the free WiFi which is fantastic. The staff are so friendly and helpful and nothing is a hassle for them. They serve homemade soup, cakes, other meals too. They even serve takeaway food. Will definitely be back the next time we go to Skye. A true wee hidden gem

Hectors Bothy

Reviewed By Killie_Kouple

We had a booked a table for 19.30 and arrived 5 mins early and were welcomed and shown our table. Ordered our dinner immediately for it to arrive 5 mins later. My husband had hoped to receive the steak and ale pie with steamed veg and chips while I had ordered the scampi. Unfortunately he had not understood the menu correctly and if you wanted chips instead of potatoes you weren’t allowed the vegetables! The table beside us questioned the server on the same point to no avail.I ordered scampi but it was served as sushi - as a result, the waitress told us our bill would be adjusted accordingly. In our opinion a £3 discount was not an appropriate adjustment and after some further “discussion”, the scampi meal was discounted completely. However, the damage was already done......Thank you for your response. Firstly i will discuss your meals, the simple answer is of course you could have steamed vegetables with your meal, you are the customers and what every variation of the menu you would like , will always be catered by the kitchen . I have no idea why you were not advised of this on you visit to the cafe. The scampi I buy in is premium wholetail scampi and it very moist and juicy, I know you described it as sushi but to be honest over the 706 reviews I have had, you are the first person ever to complain about it. i can understand it was not to your personal taste but it was cooked correctly as usual.The reason the girl did not discount the whole meal was due to the fact that you had eaten nearly all the scampi and she felt this was not justified as at no point did you tell her you did not like it or in fact state to her their was a problem.The girl then phoned my self at home and i discounted the meal as she has no authority to do this on that evening.I normally would state that i will address the problem with the staff but due to other problems that particular evening the waitress in question, employment was terminate with myself.Best wishesMhairi MacinnesOwner

Sheena's Tea Hut

Small cosy hut which serves homemade food , everything is cooked at the hut,, On a wet cold day you can snuggle up inside and enjoy the warmth of the little stove , that blasts out heat , loads of interesting books to read as you are waiting for your food

Reviewed By Susanplus3

Sheena's Tea Hut was recommended to us, and we could see why. We called in for lunch before going on the coastal path. The soup was excellent, and I'm really critical of poor soup! My husband had the Ploughmans, with coleslaw that looked homemade and he really enjoyed it. Very friendly and great decor.
