Restaurants in Fort William

The Highland Soap Company Visitor Centre & Larder Cafe

Called in when passing on our first day of three in the area. Ended up going every day! Lovely raspberry scones, although I was upset my wife's had more than twice the amount of raspberries than mine ? Good choice of coffees and great flavour. Bought a couple of hand/body moisturisers from the main shop. All round good stopping place.

Ben Nevis Takeaway

Great vegetable pizza and delicious crust! We were later on coming to the restaurant, but they made us a pizza even though they were closing up. We appreciated the service as well as the tasty pizza!

Loch Iall Brewers Fayre

Dave was very nice and explained everything about breakfast to us , super nice and you can tell he loves greeting customersOne of the nicest people we've had the pleasure of meeting on this trip ?

Macari's

Lovely chips and even got a free battered sausage with my order! Staff were very nice and welcoming even though the customers weren't extremely welcoming to outsiders but that isn't the owners fault. Prompt service with a 5 minute wait on average for a small chips and two battered sausages.Vegetarian options: Plenty vegetarian options to satisfy any vegetarians.Dietary restrictions: Has a chart to show you which food has what types of additives which could affect someone's allergies or diet. Staff are willing to discuss and help. Wonderful- never seen such a good approach to dietary requirements even in restaurants one hundred times more expensive.Parking: Either go down to Morrisons to park for free or cheap parking near the main road and the Loch.Kid-friendliness: As kid friendly as a chip shop needs to be.Wheelchair accessibility: Steps and no ramp. Poor wheelchair accessibility.

Abis Kebabs

Best pizza place in town, great choice of toppings and sizes! We grabbed a takeaway to eat in our camper, easy kerbside customer parking was a huge benefit in the rain!Parking: 3 customer spaces

McDonald's

Usual issues, as with all McDonald's, warmish food delivery.If you must have self order points - enough and working would help.Manual order point appeared unmanned.A glimmer of a smile would also not go amiss.This was not my worst experience of a McDonalds but its still not a good experience.Only ever use for convenience while travelling, not a destination of choice.Parking: As usual bays are too small - and I don't have a large car.

KFC Fort William - North Road

The people of Fort William have spoken - this is the worst KFC in the country.I was eager to try it, but was left bitterly disappointed by hot, succulent chicken and excellent service.It definitely wasn’t quite the normal KFC herbs and spices flavour - I think a bit more pepper than usual - but decent fried chook nevertheless.

Travee

Great place to stay. Very peaceful. Innes was very friendly and polite person. We had pleasant stay.Rooms: Neat roomGood view from Ben Nevis from the roomNearby activities: Canal and fishing spotWalkability: Near to corpach and bus station.Food & drinks: Only Coop is nearby. Other cafe, pubare at walkable distance.Noteworthy details: You can see Harry Potter steam train

Cameron Square

The Geographer

Simple food but done very well! Stopped off on the off chance as they had a good gluten free offering. Turns out the Owen is coeliac, so he gets it when looking for something gluten free.I can personally recommend the burger, proper tasty hand made burger and busting out of the gluten free bun.Only disappointment was no gluten free beer. Maybe they could do a deal with the brewery around the corner as they offer a lovely lager and IPA GF.Been a queue to get in all night so that should tell you everything you need to know. Get down early.Dietary restrictions: Great gluten free selectionKid-friendliness: Decent menu for little ones and offered crayons and small cup for little man’s water

The Wildcat

So great to have a vegan cafe in Fort William! We stopped here twice on our journey to and from Skye. Great vegan menu and changing selection of cakes and bakes. Busy, cosy, friendly place and love that they also stock vegan cupboard essentials at the back of the shop.

Sammy's Fish & Chip Shop

Maybe it’s a area thing ,felt we were slightly not wanted but then service warmed up and was great ,we do ask lots of unnecessary questions and it might get on some peoples nerves so we don’t mind really . Ordered a child’s meal for the misses and nearly got toy with it as well haha. Nice chips and fish cakes others had sausage fish also curry sauce is a must .Very British fish an chips in the motor during a storm , great holiday feel and alright price not even a tender for mine. Will return

Spice Tandoori

This deserves to be much higher than it is! We read the reviews before hand and glad we ignored the harsher ones. This place is a solid Indian, curries were flavoursome and the mushroom rice was especially tasty! The service was super friendly and attentive, as well as the surprisingly beautiful views you get when you sit out back.

Nevis Bakery

Lovely traditional bakery in Fort William-the chicken, haggis and peppercorn pie is incredible! We always drive to visit whenever we come to the Highlands, specially for it!

Lochaber Cafe

Opens at 7am so perfect spot for a good full English breakfast if you want to start walking by 8am. Nice food, fast service and only approx 4 minute drive from there to the Ben Nevis visitor centre where you can begin your walk. We parked in the nearby Morrisons car park which is a 1 minute walk from the cafe and you get up to 3 hours parking for free. Overall 5 star experience!!

The Hot Roast Company Ltd

I had lovely hot roast sandwiches great price and even made a bowl for the dog to enjoy great service and friendly staff will be back again in the future when visiting town.Highly recommended.

Maryburgh Inn

A legendary place, where pints, patter and pizza all come together to form a scene similar to that of the birth of Jesus Christ. Not only does the pub boast its own mascot by the name of Jeff Fungus, it also boasts its own drive thru. Having experienced the pints patter pizza drive thru I am now enlightened and have purchased several quad buggys. A must vist.

Deli Barqen Chinese takeaway

Up here on holiday and fancied a chinese takewaway the food was cooked to order and the quality was really good as was the portion sizes. The curry could have been a bit more spicy but thats just a personal preference. The portion size was just the same as most chinese takeaway. The staff were friendly both on yhe telephone and in the shop when i went to collect. Would reccomendParking: Free parking outside the shop

The Great Glen - JD Wetherspoon

Food fantastic service really goodAs always very busyGood value for moneyVegetarian options: Lots of choicesDietary restrictions: Don't know too much about thisBut well presented in the menuKid-friendliness: Don't have. Children but looking around plenty of kids aboutWheelchair accessibility: Very good plenty of room onEntering the venue

Costa Coffee

Amazing espresso, drive through service I used , the young lady at 7:30 am of the 21st February 2024 was incredibly smiling, positive and she was so busy but she managed to sayYes sir ill see you on the windowHallo sir when I was at the windowEnjoy your day sir when I leftWhat amazing service

Morrisons Cafe

I seen a review from someone complaining they had come to Scotland but couldn't get an english breakfast from here. ? Sorry to break it to you, but you're in another country - Scotland, and here you will get a Scottish breakfast. ? Food was nice, staff advised that there was a short wait ( I arrived at lunchtime when you'd expect a small wait). Last time I was at the cafe was 6 years ago and now just as good. Good value for a small Scottish breakfast too £4.50 for a slice of lorne, bacon, egg, tomato, 2 slice of toast, butter, beans and a choice of sauces. Will definitely be back again.

West Highland Restaurant

A large tourist shop.It looks like an expensive place to eat when you park in their large carpark but it's not. Stopped here for a late breakfast which was good and excellent value Also purchased a fisherman's sweater at a bargain price, nice and friendly staff as well.
