The first thing to know about The Crofters is that it fills up quickly. They have a sign out…read morefront that says "Sorry We're Full". Don't despair, they turn the sign around so that it reads, "please wait to be seated". So if you don't arrive early you can hang around and wait until someone leaves and then you can arrive in confidence. The selections are traditional Scottish fare and well made. My roast beef was a little tough but tasty nonetheless. My guests had the fish and chips and they really enjoyed their dishes except for the peas. However, the peas only played a supporting role on their plates. The Crofter is very popular and the atmosphere is fun. Come for a pint or a meal. Today is our final day in Fort William so we will dine elsewhere tomorrow.

Note that because Portree is a tourist town, prices are higher here for most beverages than elsewhere in Scotland (around £4.50, vs. £3.75 for a pint of beer or a single shot of malt whisky). Interior is charming and pleasant; one can imagine sitting near one of the two cast iron stoves at each end of the room, warming up after coming in from one of the winter storms that rock Skye in the off season. And even if it's filled with tourists playing on their phones, it's still nice!

The food and flavors are from the Highlands and Skye and I loved their placement, its a map of Skye and some of the food produced in that region. The chef is a young man and I saw him coming out of the the busy kitchen a couple times to take a break. He shook my hand when he asked what Whisky I was drinking and I told him a Gelnfidditch 18. The two problems with the restaurant were they had the heat turned on very high, it was uncomfortably hot and I would honestly rather have been cold. The other problem was they were very short staffed so the meal started out great but our server was invisible toward the end and we sat around for 20 minutes trying to see him so we could leave. Haggis + Paneer Pakora: Great Haggis fusion dish, felt traditional and yet paid homage to some of the new cultures that make up the UK. Slow Braised Lamb Shank: Rosemary Infused Mashed Potato and Roasted Root Vegetable. Very tender and delicious, our whole family shared this even though it started off as just my wifes dinner. Sole Veronique: Potatoes, spinach, and a cream sauce. Tasted OK but I thought the sauce was too heavy for the light fish it was on. If you go across the street from the restaurant and look down you can see the iconic row of different colored houses that a lot of people were taking pictures of.

The hotel staff was lovely and helpful. We were smart enough to have made a dinner reservation before our arrival for our one night stay. Nice pubby dark wood décor and seating spread over a couple of rooms. Many tables occupied on our visit. Dinner menu Scottish leaning as to be expected. It was clear from the outset that they were low on staff with our (very young) server and water coming a good bit after seating. My partner was not real hungry this evening so chose to do a bowl of the soup the day-potato & leek. This came with a wonderful, fresh roll. The roll was pronounced fantastic. We have enjoyed many an excellent bread item in Scotland and this was another example here. They know what they're doing. The soup was very tasty but after a few spoonfulls, it became "boring". My choice was a Filet of Scottish Sea Trout (yes it is different from Salmon, Google it). Served with roasted new potatoes, braised leeks, herb crusted baby carrots, and smoked mussel butter sauce. The potatoes were perfectly cooked, as were the leeks. The carrots were interesting with the herb "crust", and the mussel sauce added an umami depth to the fish. Interestingly, the sauce included a few nicely cooked, out of the shell, mussels. A succulent addition. Loved every bite. For dessert, we chose a Cinnamon Apple Tart with Caramel Whipped Cream and Vanilla Ice Cream. All of this came together for a scrumptious finale to our meal. Especially the whipped cream. Perfect portion size also. Different planning could have put us here for a longer period of time and it would have been wonderful. If you are traveling in this area, try to either stay or eat here. You won't regret it. Highly recommended.

It was weird because it was a week into our trip and it was the first time we had any negative social interactions.
