Customer Review Summary
Breakfast rolls draw repeat praise, with reviewers calling the coffee delicious and asking for it extra hot. The tiffin also stands out, with one reviewer crediting a staff member's old family recipe. The Cullen Skink and sandwich platters get called very nice too. One visitor found the cake too sweet and chewy and arrived after cooked food had stopped. Another objects to dogs being allowed inside.

“The most amazing tiffin! Catherine explained it was a recipe from years ago that she uses still and we had to go back for another. A great place for a coffee/cake, coffee is good. Staff (especially Catherine) were lovely and were super friendly which made the experience even better.”

“Lovely place, delicious home cooked food. Staff were great, good choice of meals at the expected prices. The toilets were all self contained with their own sinks and hand dryers and very clean. Surrounding area is beautiful. The only negative I have is that I don't agree with dogs being allowed inside places that serve food, otherwise I would have given a 5 start rating.”

“It was ok, slightly disappointing but this was quite late in the day so they'd stopped serving cooked food. I'd been up in the Cairngorms all day this was my first stop. Cake was not great (just too sweet and chewy for me) I think I'd been …”
