Super tasty, very quaint restaurant, fast service. Have to pay at the bar and awkward splitting the check but best meal of the week in Scotland.

    This charming and cozy place is situated in a magical part of Scotland. After a really long drive…read morelate into the rainy evening, my partner and I came by this place. Their kitchen was just about closed, and a lot of food was already sold out completely. They managed to prepare some sandwiches for us, which was really kind as we were starving and everything else was closed. It was the perfect end to a rainy and chilly drive in the dark evening. We returned the following day for a proper dinner. This time we had a delicious meal, with good ale, and sticky toffee pudding for dessert. Everything was delicious. I think the atmosphere of this warm inn amidst the wild and roaring space deserves some merit as well. The establishment itself has this cozy, communal, and quite bustling atmosphere, which everyone seems to gravitate to in such a mystical and sleepy place. Outside, there's this beautiful, ancient, raw nature, that's so dormant and old, that feels so past civilization and humans, and then you enter this place and reacquaint yourself with people and interaction once again, in a communal, close-knit space. I loved it. I'd really recommend for anyone to just visit the area, walk around, feel its old, natural, and magnificent power, and then stop for a delicious and hearty meal here after. You definitely won't regret it. Try to get there not too late, however, or you might end up with no meal like we almost did!

    This mom-and-pop restaurant/gift shop was our first stop after we crossed over the Skye Bridge to…read morethe Isle of Skye. It is located very close to the bridge and it was timely for a casual little cafe type lunch. The food is served cafeteria style and we had some soup and cold sandwiches and a dessert cake and it hit the spot. They have a big, airy, and comfortable dining room. We had time to putz around in the gift shop also. The friendly gift shop proprietor provided an Isle of Skye flag for us to pose in their scenic back patio area overlooking the loch. All of the staffers here were gregarious and friendly. Great place for a rest stop if you're hitting the Isle of Skye!

I'm from a town called Vancouver, WA in the USA, and I came to Scotland on vacation (and on a whim) back in 2018. I rented a car and visited some of my bucket list sites: Loch Ness, Glencoe, etc...and was on my way back to Inverness from the Old Man of Storr when I happened to pick up a young German hitchhiker on the road near Portree. She asked if I would be willing to drop her off at the hostel where she was working in Kyleakin, and I happily obliged. Having arrived in Kyleakin, I dropped her off, but before leaving town, I saw Castle Moil in the distance, and thought I'd see if I could wander over for a closer look. I parked in the lot, but became distracted by a small "Vote Yes / Yes Skye" event, complete with food carts, vendor tents and bagpipe music, outside the Castle Moil restaurant. I had to check it out. After I'd ordered some haggis from the food cart, one of the vendors next to me remarked about my (American) accent, and asked me where I was from. I told him I was from Vancouver, WA, but I'd be surprised if he'd ever heard of it. As it turns out, he happened to live *in my hometown* for 12 years, and no more than a mile away from me! I was utterly flabbergasted! Even stranger, he met his wife, who turned out to be the friend of a friend, while there, and after being wedded, returned to the UK with her! It just goes to show, folks: no matter where you go in the world, you will find a connection, even if it's an otherwise unremarkable car park on the other side of the world! My advice to you would be this: be curious. Explore the unknown, the unlikely, and don't let the little gems pass by. I now have an almost overwhelming love for this tiny town I spent no more than an hour visiting, and even met a celebrity Instagrammer dog (@Blazespage) while I was there! How do you beat that?! Oh yeah, the haggis was great, by the way.
