The best seafood restaurant I have been to in a long long time, only comparable to the seafood restaurants in northern Spain. Professional, very friendly staff, superb fresh seafood and beautiful tasteful setting. The seafood platter is excellent, outstanding. They made me feel at home during my holiday to Scotland.

I stopped here early evening on a Friday. Haddock and chips was excellent as was my pint of Schehallion beer. Staff were friendly, service excellent. The food was a little expensive but you get what you pay for. Very good.

Restaurant, beautiful and food, tasty and great service. I had two experiences the good one I went on my boyfriend's birthday with his family it was perfect. In day 29/04 I didn't have a good experience, we called during the week to book a time. Arriving at the resturant we were informed that there was no fish, ok in our plans that's fine because we would eat another dish.We ordered wines, soft drinks, starters, when we went to order the main course there was none, I was very disappointed as it was supposed to be a special and romantic lunch as it was my last day in Scotland and I would only return after 6 months. And we went home without lunch because there was no food in the restaurant. I believe that something unexpected could happen, but they could call and let us know and not wait for us to arrive at the restaurant.

We had searched for a steakhouse whilst driving through and this place popped up. Beautiful decor and very friendly staff. Food was top notch and very reasonable.

The seafood was delicious, and the room was fine. I was a little disappointed that they weren’t directly on the loch (which is what it seems like on the website), but across the street.

"Simply the Best" Sunday Lunch! It was absolutely awesome. I have to say the standard of Cattle and Creel is of the highest quality as is the service from George & Iona and the team they have in place. The Chef is a wonder and continues to turn out consistently high quality food with presentation to match! Superb in every way- a great experience from start to finish! Thank you all !!!

Popped in on Friday night to try their small plate evening. We had a lovely selection and left feeling very full. Staff were polite and friendly and the restaurant has such an enjoyable relaxing atmosphere, really was a great night. Thanks guys!

My son and I went last Friday evening for a belated Mothers Day meal and it was the first time we tried the Friday small plates. The whole meal was delicious we had cocktails and two 5 small plates between us and it was all delicious….plus of course the dessert cocktails which were yummy ? Special mention to our waitress Amelia she was lovely and nothing was too much trouble as well as a cheery smile. We will definitely be back soon

An impromptu dinner out. Well worth dropping in and pleased to get a table. The food was good and the service excellent, particularly from Iona - a lovely, friendly, efficient and helpful young lady.

Being a first time visitor to the town I nearly didn't go to Cattle & Creel after looking at some of the reviews, but I thought with an excellent average rating I ought to at least try, and I am so gland I did. I like to travel the United Kingdom and as I do I keep a travel diary, here's last night's submission: "We got back to the hotel a little before 5:00 pm were we had a quick wash and brush up before we headed out for our Friday night supper at Cattle & Creel. Jeepers what a fantastic feed we had, and I nearly didn’t go, although they had a 4.5 TripAdvisor rating, a few recent reviews weren’t that good. But I am so glad I gave it a go, as the food, the staff and the atmosphere was brilliant. To start we had some sourdough bread and oil/balsamic vinegar. For the main, as it was tapas Friday we had a fish medley of monkfish cheeks, langoustines and octopus, all of which were lightly battered. We also had a hand dived scallop with slow braised beef and a delicious squash & roe puree. Next up we had a fillet steak with a brandy peppercorn sauce and a portion of 36 hours braised ox cheek, with silky mash, red wine jus & crispy onions, oh and I ordered a side of chips. What delicious food it was, it was an utter delight, and we were stuffed. I was so stuffed that I declined a dessert and I had an After Eight cocktail instead, it was like velvet on my tongue". Sadly I live 150 miles to the north, in Inverness, or this would be my local restaurant, the dining experience really is that good!

Clearly profit usurps customer dining experience. £12 for two and a half (who does this?) small scallops, accompanied by brick hard, trivial pursuit pie sized, black pudding. Cullen skink which was stacked with cream and potatoes, yet light in seafood. £34 for a couple of small plates and a small wine. I don’t mind paying, but I hate being ripped off.

We had a really great evening here. The food was amazing. Started with the prawn tempura which was very tasty. I had the sea bass which was crispy and again very tasty. My partner had the steak. Pudding was divine too! George, our waiter, could not have been more helpful . He even ran to another restaurant to get us some limoncello . Highly recommended and would definitely return.
