    Great restaurant/cafe with an interesting menu and quick service. It gets very busy at the weekend but wait time for table is not too long. We had chicken salad and mushrooms fricassee with goat cheese and parmesan fries. Both delicious.

    Stopped in for a full Scottish breakfast on the coo trail. Met lavender and then thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast. Set us up for the day. The black pudding was particularly good! Great service, polite and helpful. Great views and lovely little shop. Thank you

    We had a lovely lunch here today. Excellent vegetarian options (see photos) which we shared as well as lots of home baking. This was followed by some great Christmas shopping! Thank you to Murdo and the team who looked after us so nicely.
