Small family owned bistro with an amazing location.Everything was fresh and delicious.The fish chowder was good enough to make me want to lick the bowl.The scallops were beautiful and perfect.The seafood platter was well done, a great variety, and enough to share for lunch!It’s not an easy drive to get here, but it’s definitely worth your time.

Amazing find! Such beautiful, fresh seafood. The hand-dived scallops in particular were a standout. Well worth the trip from Kirkwall during our stay in Orkney. Lovely service as well.

Delicious food and great location. Agree with some of the other comments about a member of staff being slightly rude. We had just eaten lunch and desert and when leaving went to quickly take some photos, but were quizzed if we had been in the restaurant. When I answered yes, the reply was 'are you sure!?' After paying for food, it was a little rude, however I understand they don't want people using the car park. But perhaps a little more courtesy towards paying customers.Ps the service in the restaurant was great!

This was a welcome stop for us on the last day of our Summer break before heading back to Castletown on the mainland. We enjoyed a very nice seafood lunch followed by excellent dessert. The views from here are fantastic, but so are most views in Orkney.

It was excellent! The customer service, the food was great and the prices were reasonable. The roll with the fish chowder was served fresh from the oven. The seafood platter was a good sampling of seafoods. We loved the rhubarb crumble(with cream) and the Orkney fudge cheesecake made on site. A quiet, relaxing place to enjoy lunch by the coast.

Simple, delicious seafood sourced locally and prepared on site.Be prepared to eat fish of all different kinds.The people who run the restaurant take tremendous care and pride in their offering. Every we ate was scrumptious.Make sure to leave room for dessert. It was plate licking good!Parking on site with stunning views of the water.

We have rent the pod for the 2 of us including seafood tasting menu. It was absolutely marvellous. Nice arranged food on the plate, and the quality was absolutely perfect. One of the best experience we ever had. Cooked and served with love. We surely back again.

Absolutely wonderful food, all local, really fresh. The chowder, scallops and fish platter were the best everThe setting is beautiful with gorgeous views all around. Staff are really helpful and friendly. There's also the tomb to visit. This is excellent

I've reviewed over 50 restaurants and tourist attractions in Orkney this summer and this is the only business that gets less than 4*, and as a qualified Green Badge guide I was appauled to see the lack of humanity and customer service today. The website clearly states that tours for the Tomb of the Otters start at 11am, so as a cyclist turning up at 10:45 this is reasonable so as to not miss the tour departure. I know the guide Lisa so was intrigued to see what exactly is in the Tomb.However the owner came out and asked me to leave the car park as I had cycled past the rope barrier as I was 15mins before opening. All I wanted was to stretch my legs in the car park until the tours started, but he actually stopped what he was doing in the kitchen to come out and drive a potential customer away, because they turned up early!The walks around the cliffs here are good. I've been to the bistro previously and the food was good and has decent wifi, but I certainly won't be going back or recommending this place to anyone again if the attitude of the owner is such. And looking at previous reviews it looks like his rudeness is a common occurrence.
