But unlike the Boatshed, the HS-1 does not take reservations and is more value-priced. We dined there twice. While the presentation was not as dramatic as at the Boasted, we enjoyed every bite, enough to say it's my favorite place during Scotland travels.

The food is always great with a large selection of soups, sandwiches, salads, teas etc. They also have a small gift shop with crafts from locals. After you eat it's great to go for a walk along the grounds and up to the Castle. The views of Stornoway from up there are beautiful.

The cafe is beautifully decorated and has stunning views to the beach and harbour . The food is all homemade , many of the cakes locally in the village . The piece de resistance was a beautifully decorated gluten free cake that resembled a wedding cake .

The a-la-carte menu includes regular items and daily specials. At an affordable price. Order and pay at the bar. Get a wooden spoon with yr table number on it. Make a reservation (especially if you want a window seat) or just walk in. No hubbub; just a casual atmosphere. The food? I would call it Modern Scottish: fresh Scottish produce (especially seafood -- this is a harbor city with a fishermen's cooperative) fused with 'foreign' flourishes. Yesterday I had scollops from North Uist, and tonight I had monkfish kebab with couscous. Two nights in a row? Yes. I am traveling solo, it is close to where I am staying, it's part of an important cultural center, and the food is good. So why not?
