Recommended restaurants/ pubs in Portree

Seriously, no need to waste your dollars on this tourist trap at Dulse and Brose. Service is horrible - as soon as I sat down, asked about a whiskey flight and was reminded they need the table back by 6:40 PM…you know, Covid and crap. How rude. Burger was horrible, even I can cook better than this. The cow this burger came from would be ashamed for its life. Pretentious service, not sure why - asked if I can take the bottle of wine with me if i don't have time to drive it all since we're being rushed out of the place...scoffed at as if I should know the local liquor laws. Location is not worth anything either…so not sure why these people get the attitude and ability to treat their customers this way. Anyway, we won’t be back. Took some photos of the food…we could not eat more than a few bites.

I am sure the restaurant will reply with some dumb reason..."I hope you come back and try something else on the menu" or whatever. Laughable attempt to customer service which should happen while I am in your restaurant, not after I leave/on Google reviews.

If you find yourself there during the day, Cafe Arriba (at the top of Quay Brae) is nice - tasty food, but quite small.

Many places are closing at the end of this week for the winter. Others are offering restricted hours due to staffing problems etc. Make sure to book to avoid disappointment; Sundays and Mondays being a particular problem.
