This was a perfect stop on our trip north to John O'Groats. Service was quick and friendly. There's…read morenothing fancy about the menu but our food was really good. It definitely beat the prebooked "sandwich and soup" lunch the rest of our tour group had. Don't let the shredded cheese fool you in the pic, it worked. We each had a bacon cheeseburger and shared fries and Irn-Brus. If you've had fries in the UK, they tend to be undercooked - these actually had a crunch to them! The bread was soft, the burger patty was delicious and the bacon is always better in Europe versus the US. It was cash only, which is fine. We also took away this AMAZING treat from the case...it was like a rice krispy treat but with butterscotch added to the marshmallow stickiness and topped with a layer of chocolate - *chefs kiss*

Since we already had lots of fish lately we decided to give Wickers a go. My wife went for a soup and I had the Chilli Cheese Burger with chips (fries). Since we were travelling with a dog we ordered the meal to-go and ate outside at the nice harbour. The soup was nice, hot and filling. The Burger had a really good size with lots of cheese. Could have been a bit more melted though and bit too much sweet chilli sauce. But still a hearty, juicy Burger for a fair price. It's a nice local restaurant with very friendly staff and a big menu. Surely a good choice if you are looking for a good down-to-earth meal.

We had some time to kill before taking the ferry to Orkney and spotted this cute little shop. I'm…read moreso glad we had the extra time. This place is utterly charming. My three children and I enjoyed breakfast and shared some wonderful desserts. The server was prompt and friendly. The owner came out to chat with us and explained that her dessert recipes had been handed down from her Granny. The Victoria Sponge cake was delicious. We took some cupcakes with us to go. Our only disappointment was that we returned from Orkney at a time that Cups was not open. We would have happily stopped in again! Make the time to stop in and visit Cups if you are headed to Orkney. You will be glad you did. (My son says to try the salmon sandwich!)

The atmosphere is sort of resort casual with picnic tables and vinyl polka dot table clothes. The bathrooms were old, but clean. The place overlooks the ocean, but takes almost no advantage of this fact. The service seemed to be all friendly, well-trained young people, perfect with the casual atmosphere. The beef was better than anything we would have the right to expect, local, Scottish, butchered down the road. Toasted buns seemed just right, as did the chips, hot and not greasy. Since coffeehouses are not a thing in town, this seems a great place to relax for coffee, until the need for a burger arises. Pro tip: you need to park in the correct place.

We had breakfast here, I had the Floridian and my partner had the Sampler. The crispy bacon is awesome and the whole meal was delicious. But by far the best thing of all was the Pumpkin Pie Milkshake!! Screw Starbucks and their lattés, this shake was AMAZING!!! I'm sure the actual pie is just as good!
