Nice friendly staff too.

And the staff is very friendly. There is an impressive selection of scarves and jackets on the first floor. They even have a dressing room if you'd like to try on some of the clothing. Not going to lie, a lot of the stuff in here is the basic touristy stuff that you'll find in the other shops around here, but they have a good selection and nice pricing. There is also a large whisky section, if you're into that sort of thing. Upstairs is where you'll find t-shirts and tchotchkes, like figurines and specialty drinking cups. You'll also find kitchen linens and more men's clothing up here.

On a trip to Scotland I stopped here to do a little bit of browsing and I didn't plan to actually…read moreshop. However, lucky me! I found some needles that I wanted and a beautiful sock yarn that I didn't know I wanted. I love the surprise. And I managed to find a wee bit of space in my luggage to bring my unexpected finds back home. I made fingerless mitts with the yarn and have had more compliments than I could keep track of. Now if only I could find more of that yarn here in Los Angeles!

They have a really good selection of art and prints. I found a Bee & Thistle print I had to have, and they even put it in a mailing tube so that I can send it home and not have to carry it around with me. Their gift shop has a great selection of jewelry, souvenirs, and gifts for loved ones back home. Many things you cannot find in the bigger cities here, as they are local made. The cafe in the back has wonderful homemade food. We had soup and toasties (grilled cheese sealed in a pie iron), and the quiche of the day, which were all really good. The desserts will tempt you to take them home with you. Its definitely a nice place to stop while touring the Glencoe valley.

My boyfriend, his sister and her husband and my parents were on our way to Oban for a day out when we stopped here. My boyfriend sister and I bond over stuff like this and all things Scottish, so it was great to stop at a shop that she loves! The owner was super friendly and knows my boyfriends sister as she's shopped here on a few occasions and was very chatty to us. There are loads of amazing things on offer in this wee shop. Loads of hand crafted pottery from cups and bowls to candle stick holders and tea pots. All with different stains and glazes, each thing a little different from the next. High quality pottery and gifts can be purchased here. My boyfriend and I are fans of wooden products, and we spotted some olive wood products for sale. We use bamboo whenever possible, but we fell in love with some wooden spoons and kitchen items in this shop, so we purchased a few to add to our collection. My mom bought my boyfriend sister a bracelet and bought herself some lavender to take back to the states. My boyfriends sister bought a card and some "singing mice" as she calls them- wooden mice who look like they're singing. So adorable. I really quite enjoyed stopping in this shop and plan to make it a point to check it out whenever in the area again. Local goods are great!

My first meal in Scotland and Glencoe Cafe came thru. Situated in a small town off of A82, this…read morecafe, pub, pizzeria, and restaurant has lots of vegetarian options on the menu. While they were out of many of them during our trip, we still thoroughly enjoyed the ones we had. The vegetarian haggis was surprisingly delicious. Having never tasted traditional haggis, this is not a comparison. We enjoyed the flavor and the consistency was a bit crumbly without being too mushy. The vegetarian pizza was solid, although a few too many vegetables included for my personal taste (I prefer pizza with two to three items). And the standard margherita pizza was a winner. The staff was friendly and the view from the deck was nice. If you're looking for a cute lunch stop tucked into the southern edge of the Highlands, Glencoe Cafe is a nice option as you travel through the rolling hills of Scotland.

This charming and cozy little spot seems to be a bit of a social hive in tiny Glencoe. Some would…read morecall it "cramped" rather than "cozy"--the quarters are pretty tight. Given its diminutive size, the cafe has a relatively long menu of panini and other sandwiches, soups, salads, and desserts, with a sharp focus on tea service. Went with a chicken tikka panini, little salad, and darjeeling. It made for a nice lunch stop. Friendly service, as was the case virtually without exception the whole time were in Scotland. In the Glencoe Cafe's mashed-together seating, we U.S. residents of Ohio ended up being surrounded by Michigan folks who were talking about Big 10 football, including a young couple who, as is apparently contractually or maybe even genetically required of almost all U.S. millennials, order all restaurant food by stating which items they want to "do." "Home sweet home," Jeebus. Finally, here's a piece of advice: If you're driving from Edinburgh to the Glen Coe area like we were, and you're thinking about stopping for lunch on the way, consider that once you pass Stirling and a couple of smaller towns just beyond there, dining options are few and far between in this magical area. Although already hungry, we passed up a couple of sketchy-looking (and thronged) tourist cafes on the A82 about an hour before we got to Glencoe, but were glad we did.
