The food arrives quickly, usually about 15 minutes, and is very good indeed. I'll give you one warning though, the chef does like his seasoning, so try before you go throwing on the salt and pepper.Portions are huge, but if you ask, they'll do a smaller portion. The haggis is sourced from the local butcher Cockburns, who are very famous and extremely good. I didn't think I'd like haggis, but this is very good indeed.Out of season, the bar and restaurant are only open from about 5-7pm depending on who's on, but in season the bar does excellent lunches, you certainly won't go hungry!

A surprise indeed finding the Mallard for dinner. Staff pleasant and unassuming. Place pub style and very casual. Ordered a steak and was delighted when it was cooked exactly as ordered. Not fine dining but good value and just fine for a hungry traveller.

Cottage Bar & Restaurant

Reviewed By Dbossom

My wife and I dropped in without a reservation to grab lunch en route north. We were the only customers in the pleasant conservatory and the service was naturally quick. Good leek soup (£4.10) followed by the daily special, chicken in a barbecue sauce (£10.95) with chips. Glasses of wine are provided in mini bottles (£2.10). We paid just £34.50 for two which was reasonable for a quick, solid lunch. Only complaint was re. The coffees (£2.10 each) which were tasteless.

Tarvies

Small family run business located in the village of Tarvie, between Contin & Garve. We have a very large menu both for sit in, with a 21 seater cafe located on the side of the building, and a large outside seating area for about 50 people. The menu ranges

We stopped off here on our way back to Inverness, primarily to use the toilet but decided to have a drink, this cafe is a roadside cafe and I was surprised at the variety of things they did. I am a Coeliac and they catered for Gluten free, having GF Bread and cakes, they also understood about cross contamination. I had a coffee and the carrot cake and both the coffee and cake was excellent. Well worth a stop here, it is just past Rogie Falls

Stayed at hotel so sampled dinner & breakfast. Dinner nice enough but slightly bland; really needed heated up though as was at best lukewarm. Breakfast was a buffet which again was lukewarm . Suspect catering standards may be dictated by the fact the restaurant is catering for coach parties. Staff were nice though and service quite quick.

Strathpeffer Pavilion

Reviewed By Mytripsandholidays

I attended this venue for a music show not as a restaurant. I understand the restaurant is no longer open except for private functions.As a fan of Rufus Wainwright I attended this surprisingly intimate venue to attend a show on 18/11/2016. Amongst other scheduled events of art shows, craft stalls and diet support evenings Rufus had a gig. Very strange.The venue is lovely. The sound and lighting were good, the room very cozy with a gorgeous balcony. I had a fantastic show with bonus of spending a night in lovely Strathpeffer. The staff are fantastic. Everyone very nice and I understand that some staff volunteered their services that evening to help out and make the event happen. Due to no fault of their own the piano lorry broke down on the way to the show and arrived late. This meant the soundcheck was late and we were waiting outside in -2! Despite this they let us in and lined us up in the hallway inside as they couldn't let us into the main room as usual due to the H & S elements of the soundcheck. Those of us who had been waiting hours to get a good seat in the unreserved set up were acknowledged and the staff made sure we went in to the room in the same order. It was all very civilised. I gather that some people moaned to the staff but it was not their fault we had to wait.I had a great night. Loved the venue. Loved the staff. Loved the town! I would definately come again.

Because of we had no reservation for the much more cosy Red Poppy this was our only dinner option near Strathpeffer.The restaurant is in a very posh castle hotel. The nice environment is it's main attraction. The food is fairly moderate with a high price.

Visited twice recently and second visit as good as the first. Had lunch both times and found the 2 course lunch menu great value and went on to have dessert etc. Food presented beautifully and was as good as it looked. Staff so pleasant and accommodating. I would suggest this is a real asset to Strathpeffer and hope locals as well as visitors take the opportunity to visit. One real blessing no smell of stale cooking oil that one so often comes across when trying to find an eatery. So highly recommend and thank you Red Poppy, you deserve to do well based on the service we received.

We sat at a table on the platform and enjoyed it so much we went the next day as well. I enjoyed my soup and square sausage roll and the ice cream sundaes were very good.
