Culinary Delights

The village of Lochinver boasts a diverse selection of eateries to cater for every pocket. These local establishments serve meals and drinks, using fresh and local ingredients from the abundant natural larder surrounding us – every meal as rewarding as the views. The choice of fares are many, from Internationally renowned Chef Albert Roux, the Michelin starred Albannach hotel to the award winning Caberfeidh restaurant, the community owned Lochinver Mission and the Lochinver Larder who's famous pies get packed and posted around the globe. It really does depend on what you fancy at the time.

The Caberfeidh

A five minute walk from Tigh Na Sith where Simon and Jen offer a great value and varied menu of quality food that can be eaten in the lounge bar or separate dining room. Look out for the specials board – which changes virtually by the minute to accommodate the freshest and latest available local ingredients. This pub was runner up in the Independent Pub / Bar of The Year 2010" a reflection of the welcoming and personal service on offer here. A great selection of draught and bottled ales are available as well as a well stocked malt whisky section, for those who savour a "wee dram" or two. They really do offer great food at affordable prices.

The Albannach

A 10 minute walk or a 2 minute drive from Tigh Na Sith is the Albannach hotel. This restaurant is approaching its 23rd year of operation and was awarded a much coveted Michelin star in 2009. Owned by Colin and Lesley, their aim is to serve imaginatively prepared food drawing from the best local and seasonal ingredients available. Fine dining at its best, nothing is too much trouble and everything, just as it should be, well worth a visit during your stay. Please note prior reservations are required at the Albannach.

The Lochinver Larder

Produced under the watchful eyes of Ian and Debra Stewart at the Lochinver Larder, you will find a huge selection of the best "home made" sweet and savoury pies known to man and women alike. There is also a spacious coffee shop and bistro, offering great value morning coffees, afternoon teas, lunches and evening meals. The early evening meals are very popular, with locals and visitors alike, all served up using the best Scottish ingredients, including freshly landed fish and shellfish. The specials board is definitely worth checking out - complementing the already extensive menu. All this just a short 5 minute stroll away.

The Lochinver Mission

Recently purchased by the local community the mission is located adjacent to the harbour. Here you will find a varied and affordable "cafe style" menu which includes local crab, mussels and langoustines amongst other tasty items. Good food at affordable prices and open all year round. The Mission is unlicenced but you are welcome to take your own wines, spirits or beer.

Chez Roux

Adjacent to Tigh Na Sith is the entrance to the Inverlodge Hotel where you will find the legendary chef Albert Roux's - Chez Roux restaurant. For the discerning palette or for that very special occasion, this culinary experience should be the high point of any holiday or short break.

Just down the road...

Kylesku Hotel - 20 minutes by car

For great food with splendid views of Loch Glendhu then look no further than the Kylesku Hotel run by Sonia and Tanja. The bar is at the heart of the action, always busy and frequented by locals and tourists alike. When it comes to dining, you can choose to eat in the bar, or in the calm and informal restaurant. Their menus specialise in local game and seafood, with fresh langoustine, spineys, lobster, crab, scallops, haddock and mussels available daily. There are also a wide selection of wines and malt whiskies available to compliment their meals.

Ullapool - 35 minutes by car

In Ullapool there are a selection of restaurants and food outlets all offering varying cuisines, standards and prices. We can personally recommend the Seaforth pub located just opposite the Ferry Terminal which offers a substantial and varied menu, including a good selection of locally caught seafood at very reasonable prices. They also operate the fish and chip shop next door!

Please note that prior to ferry sailings in the height of the summer this pub can get very full.

*During the peak season restaurants and bistros can get very busy. We strongly advise that you make bookings in advance where possible, we are happy to do this for you, all part of the service.
