When my…read moreboyfriend and I were travelling around Scotland earlier this year, were had fantasies of cooking freshly caught seafood on the beach. Armed with our trusty gas stove, we searched the island before stumbling across Anchor Seafoods at the end of the pier. It was closed when we first approached it - were we to be twarted at the final turn??! No, we popped back 15 minutes later and the lovely lady had returned and we were able to peruse a fine selection of freshly caught seafood. The shop owner was quite charmed by my boyfriend, and seemed completely amazed that a Brazilian should turn up in her little shop in Portree!! The fish selection was super fresh and so appealing. It took a lot of resistance and will power not to walk away with too much, but we had to bear in mind we had no way of storing the produce. It was quite pricey but we decided it would be worth every penny. We settled for some scallops and prawns and headed off to find a secluded section of beach where we could cook up our feast and make all our fantasies come true!! Top quality seafood from a top quality place.

The last 200m or so is a steeper one-lane road, but not problems here if you just look ahead a bit. The parking lot by the Oyster Shed has limited spaces. Again here...just don't rush - bring some time to either wait for a spot or to park further down and walk up. We got lucky and got a spot. Two RVs parked here too. Almost couldn't get in and out and did hold everybody up - so I wouldn't recommend bringing your RV up here. Inside you order by tablet. It's quite a big space inside the shop. Once you got your food (outside) you can sit down right in front or head around the corner to the big table with some views. We were happy to sit out front though. Ordered two kinds of cooked topped oysters (salmon/seaweed and spicy seaweed chutney), crab legs, a softshell crab and half-a-dozen of regular oysters. The fresh raw oysters were nice and of good quality. The cooked oysters were decent, maybe easier for oyster-beginners since the toppings cover the sea/oyster flavour. The softshell crab was really tasty - but also a bit pricey for our served size. The best item were the crab legs cluster. A good load of legs for little money. Very tasty! All in all a good place to enjoy some seafood. Some items were great, others also very good - but not great. If we come back it would be for the Crab legs...

We walked in a little after 8 PM, we were told to wait outside for a couple of minutes to prepare the table for us, because it's a small restaurant, and we completely understood that. Also, the waitress explained that it's a cash only restaurant, and even offered to allow us to go to the ATM machine after having our dinner, which doesn't really happen in CA due to the eat and ditch. I looked at the specials and the beef and ale Scottish stew was on my "to have" list. The stew was amazing, and my son ordered the salmon and couscous and he enjoyed it too. The ambience was so cute, it's a small and quaint local restaurant that's specialized in seafood, and I highly recommend it to anyone who's visiting the Skye.

We've ordered the fried fish wrap, the seafood bowl and some fresh oysters. We actually wanted also some langoustines like last time. But since the menu is always a bit changing and depending on the catch, this time this option wasn't available. But there were some of them in the mixed seafood bowl. Also some herring, salmon, seafood dip and salad was in the delicous bowl. The fried fish wrap was excellent as well. Fresh cod, nicely fried. Crispy outside and nice, fresh and tender inside. Good stuff. And now for the highlight: The Oysters. We've had oysters in the Normandy (France), Spain, Italy, Portugal, South Korea, Japan, Australia, the US and in many other places. In several spots in England and Scotland as well. And these here were so far the best we've ever had! Fresh flavours of the sea, nicely sized, very sweet, smooth and creamy. Excellent oysters - almost drove three hours back the next day just to get some more. -But an altogether six-hour drive was a bit too much in the end. Hopefully next time around the oysters will be as great as this time. This time the weather was pretty cold and it was a bit rainy at times. So it was easy to get a table - even got one under the tent. Last time it was warm and sunny, but hard to get a seat and there was a long line. This time it was all easy, an advantage of this kind of weather which we didn't mind at all. A really really great place to grab some fantastic seafood items. We definitely will be back.

Almost everything about our experience at The View was fantastic, except for the view itself and…read moreour initial interaction with the woman who seated us, which was so terrible that it tainted our entire experience there. We had a late reservation on our second night in Portree...we arrived early, planning on having a dram at the adjacent whisky bar while waiting for our table to be available. Our experience at the whisky bar itself was fantastic. The bartender was very knowledgeable in the selection; he guided us as well, and having tasted quite a number of whiskies during our visit, the 2 he served us were easily at the top of our tasting list in all of Scotland. When it came time for our actual restaurant seating time, we headed back to check in, where Angela greeted us and took us to our table. Our seat was in the corner of the restaurant, next to the window, but with a large column blocking our view of Portree. (You know "The View," which the place is named after.) I asked if we could wait for another table to open up. Angela immediately got a frown on her face and responded: "If you want to wait another hour." Those words on their own were hard enough to hear after having already been in the restaurant (at the bar) for over an hour...but the way she said it was snide, mean, and it felt like she was scolding us. And then she said it a second time. It was just one sentence from her...but it made us feel terrible, like we had made some kind of offensive error asking for a different table (with an actual view). We completely understand that sometimes requests are not possible, but surely there could have been a nicer way she could have communicated the answer to us. Maybe "Ahh, I'm so sorry, but all the other tables are booked. It could be up to an hour wait if you want." Angela could have been much kinder, but instead she made us feel like she was doing us a favor by allowing us to be in the restaurant at all. What would have been a 5-star experience overall gets dinged an entire star because of that tiny, terrible reaction with her. Writing this a couple of weeks later, I still can feel the sinking feeling in my stomach after she said what she said the way she said it. Maybe Angela was having a bad day. Maybe she was fed up with customers in general...but that one tiny interaction will stick with us for a long time. Our server was lovely, and the food we got was great. I appreciated having fine-dining vegetarian options. I had the Twice Baked Scottish Cheddar Soufflé. It was light and fluffy and served on a gorgeous bed of different colored tomatoes and lettuce, and topped with pesto. I enjoyed it. My wife got the wedge salad, which was also really good...a full wedge of bib lettuce and a nice dressing...very fresh. She also had scallops as a starter...a cold dish, smoky and tasty. (According to her, I'm a vegetarian.) The bread was cute...a little baked ball...fun to look at, served with a dollop of butter served on a on a stone slab. (Though it was cold on the inside, so wondering if this may have been out of the fridge or freezer for a while.) We saw a couple other tables order chips, and they looked so good we added an order...these were perfect, lightly coated with truffle oil and parmesan...easily the best chips we had in all of Scotland. We finished with cheesecake for dessert. It was topped with raspberries and a raspberry compote. It was served with raspberry sorbet and topped with a wrapped waffle cookie-like topping filled with a delicious chocolate ganache with freeze-dried raspberries sticking out either end. Raspberry-heavy but quite indulgent. We enjoyed the food a lot. Our server was nice and sweet. Our experience at the bar ahead of time was fantastic. The view could have been better based on where we were seated. Unfortunately, the thing that we'll remember the most about our experience here was the egregious interaction with Angela.

Maybe being super hungry and waiting outside in crazy conditions, then getting inside a nice, warm, and cozy place was part of why the food tasted better but I highly recommend this place. FYI, this place doesn't take reservations. It makes sense because it's a small place and if someone doesn't show up, a table goes wasted.
