Off the Rails

The atmosphere in this old railway station is delightful, and the food exquisite. Plenty of choice, and adequate wine – supreme value.
Old Course Hotel

Imbued with golfing heritage yet retaining a refreshingly light air, this is dining at its finest. Virtuoso chef Mark Lindsey and a wine list of 200 bins. Smart dress and tie preferred.
Old Pines

Conscientiously organic, devoted to sourcing local ingredients, a member of the “Slow Food” movement and with its own smokehouse, this little restaurant has earned a big name. Awarded Rural Chef of the Year 2003 (see Old Pines, Spean Bridge) .
Olorosso

Elevated in attitude and altitude, this rooftop glass box offers views, well-mixed cocktails and a menu that emphasizes precision over showmanship.
Philipburn Country House

Bistro and restaurant offering light snacks to full meals. It maintains a country-house atmosphere, yet is very good value. Non-smoking.
Pierowall Hotel, Orkney

Come here for the best fish and chips in the isles – probably in Scotland. Nothing fancy but simple home-cooking and plenty of choice.
Plumed Horse

A new discovery in an unexpected place. Seriously high quality modern cuisine prepared by chef Tony Borthwick. Gaining popularity by the day, so advance booking is advised.
Port Mor House

Dinner is included with bed and breakfast here, simply because there’s nowhere else to go. Thankfully the restaurant excels itself (see Port Mor House) .
Port-na-Con, nr Durness

Lochside restaurant which offers international cuisine. Incredible variety and value, and adequate wine list (see Port-na-Con, Loch Eriboll) .
Rogano

A wonderful place to imbibe, in equal measure, splendid cocktails and the Art Deco surrounds. Expensive in the main restaurant but fresh seafood a bargain in the brasserie.
