Nous avons passé une très bonne soirée dans ce restaurant avec un service agréable et des plats bien préparés. Je recommande pour ceux qui souhaite manger sur l'île Skye !!!

We just arrived at 9:05pm and the kitchen was closed but they managed to serve us and the food was great! We had cullen skink soup, traditional stake, stout and ale pie, soup of the day (sweet potato, buttenut & leek) and pork! Thank you for everything!

We stayed in the accommodation next door and had dinner and breakfast here. Food was fantastic. The breakfast was the best we have ever had in any Hotel. I had the full breakfast and my Husband had the scrambled eggs with smoked salmon. The staff are lovely and treated our dogs well. We have already recommended this place to family and friends.

Was last here about 7 or 8 years ago and a lot has changed. The once quirky pub has rebranded into nice wee restaurant, keeping some flare of the old place.I honestly wouldn't recommend going here for food however. Nearly £19 for a bacon burger with chips. Was expecting something a bit high end for that price, but instead was served a burger drier than a rice cake left out in the sun in a brioche bun that I'm sure both came from the local supermarket. There was also only one slice of bacon (+£2 btw) and some mustard. No salad, pickles, tomato, onion etc, things I would normally expect when paying that price. 100% could have made better at home. Chips were pretty banging to be fair.Wouldn't also recommend trying to go in for just a drink, as the venue will prioritise diners instead, even at later hours.Go to Haakon bar instead; food is nicer and more affordable

The goat's cheese was vile, really quite disgusting. The steal and stout pie was so salty it was truly inedible, add in mash full of mustard and you get idea. This might have been bad but it was all cooked or reheated in a microwave, the plates were roasting and the food was too, we cancelledour dessert order. We met people who were looking for a recommendation to go eat just now and sent them to the Indian. Wasn't cheap either. Such a shame too as the staff are lovely

There aren’t many options to eat in Kyleakin in November. We ate here on our first night. We won’t be back. The menu is very limited and I understand that business is quiet at this time of year but everything on the menu is clearly ‘can be cooked from frozen’ or has a long life. Our starters were the best thing (black pudding with halloumi and bacon). Our main courses were very disappointing. The service was okay. It’s just a shame that the food was so disappointing and very overpriced for what is was.

I can’t fathom why this restaurant garnered such low reviews on Google. My husband and I were here for dinner last evening and we found both food and service to be great. This restaurant appears to be one of two choices within Kyleakin. We were there on an errand, so we didn’t make a booking. At 7pm, the restaurant was close to full but the owner made it a point to try to get a table for us even then. Having been turned away at other establishments before for not booking, we really appreciated the gesture.We weren’t particularly hungry, so we ordered the cullen skink and the super salad with halloumi. The cullen skink was freshly prepared and chockful of potatoes and leeks, but it was the super salad with the deliciously panfried halloumi, chickpeas, quinoa, oats and rice over salad that surprised us with how tasty it was.We also ordered their chocolate & caramel torte with vanilla ice-cream and the strawberry cranachan. Both were good, but I really enjoyed the chocolate & caramel torte. It was rich, creamy and chocolatey and the raspberry compote added a dimension of tartness that balanced out the flavour.Even though they were busy and running at full capacity, they did their best to tend to everyone in a friendly and efficient manner. Our food and drinks all came very quickly with little wait time.Parking: Plenty of parking across the street. Free after 6pm. Also a working EV charger.

Worst Hostel in the UK, yu cannot even cook here, there's only a microwave and a toaster. Everything is dirty, rooms are overpriced. AVOID IT !

The place was the best available at short notice. The room was clean but the common areas are quite tired looking. Don’t bother with the classic Cullen Skink. It was watery and had a coating of oil on the top bizarrely.The salmon was over cooked and the veg limp.At breakfast (£14+) I helped myself to a small bowl of muesli to be told that wasn’t included. What the actual ?They forgot my main which took half an hour. Then they had the audacity to charge an extra £1.50 for a slice of toast because had had muesli unbelievable.

A nice hot meal and cold beer. Friendly

While the story of Saucy Mary's is one of holding ships for ransom and charging a toll, I wasn't aware that the tradition was being upheld on food. It took multiple attempts to get our order correct, and it took nearly 2 hours to get our food.The staff were nice enough, but the food combined with a tightly packed venue made it hard to enjoy our evening.
