  “Staff were amazing and friendly. Food was fabulous. Had the mac and cheese and you could taste the homemade sauce was proper cheesy. Dessert of sticky toffee pudding and ice cream was delicious. The cinnamon swirl cheesecake was to die for. Will definitely be looking to come back to them next time I venture north”

  “We visited Fort William as part of a tour. It is a small town located along the beautiful Loch Linnhe. The High Street is the town’s main street, filled with shops and restaurants. We had a quick lunch at The Tavern Restaurant and ordered Irn-Bru, the famous bright orange Scottish soft drink, along with fish and chips, and bread and butter pudding. The food was absolutely delicious. The staff were very friendly, and the service was excellent. During the busiest lunch hour, when the restaurant was full of travelers, I asked whether it might be possible to speed up our order since we only had about half an hour before returning to our tour bus. The manager, Mikey, kindly promised he would do his best, and he truly did. But the story did not end there. After lunch, we hurried back to our bus, and suddenly I realized that I had lost my camera. Since we had walked along the shore of Loch Linnhe, visited several shops, and eaten at the restaurant, I could not remember where I had left it. Our travel director contacted the shops and restaurants while we continued our journey. She also posted a message on the local community’s social media page in the hope that someone might find it. Soon afterward, Mikey responded that the camera had been found at the restaurant. When I heard the news, I felt incredibly happy and relieved. Mikey and I then stayed in contact, and he generously offered to mail the camera back to the United States at his own expense. Thanks to Mikey’s kindness and help, I was able to get my camera back. It was an unforgettable travel experience that I will always remember. Only a truly wonderful person could run such a wonderful restaurant!”

  “We ended up here unexpectedly because the place we originally wanted to go to was closed. Although it was quite busy, we were still able to get a table for two. Service was quick and friendly. The only downside was that our drinks arrived after the food, and the amount of whisky we received seemed a bit small. That said, the food was absolutely delicious, and the dessert was both generous and very tasty. We have no regrets about dining here!”

  “This is a great restaurant and bar. The staff are superb, and really helpful. My husband is not a whisky drinker, but was interested in the chicken and haggis with whisky sauce. He was offered the chance to taste the sauce first, which was great and it tasted fantastic. The food was very good. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting our passing through.”

  “Had lunch here during a stop on our bus tour of the Highlands, and we were really impressed with the quality of the food. The place was almost empty when we arrived so service was very speedy. It was only a short walk from where our bus parked/departed so it’s a great location but most of the others from our tour didn’t go that far down the street so they missed out on this gem! We had plenty of time to enjoy our meal and get back to the bus with time to spare.”

  “We visited here after getting a trip to fort William gifted as an engagement present. From the outside we weren’t expecting much, but we were greeted with warm and welcoming staff who were so attentive and a pleasure to chat with. The food was absolutely incredible, gutted this is 110 miles away from our home in Glasgow, because we would become regulars if we could. Cannot fault at all 10/10”
