  • star rating  As a daytripper we stopped here for coffee and cake. Good service, nice lemon drizzle cake and a fantastic view on a brilliant day.
    Right near the ferry terminal,... read more with awesome views.

  • star rating  We sailed to Eigg and ended up having breakfast, lunch and late lunch here - We just couldn't stay away! Great food with veggie and vegan options. Lovely cakes. Great... read more service. And just stunning location, especially in the blazing sun with a terrace looking South to Ardnamurchan peninsula. Or you could get the same view from inside. Great that they served alcohol too. Just a shame it shut about 5pm.

  • star rating  Echoing what many here have said, we found the staff, the sweeping view and the food -- breakfast and afternoon tea as well as dinner -- just wonderful. You can't... read more go wrong with the fish and chips or the sweet, tender mussels. The cafe sits front and center on the harbor waterfront, a short walk from the ferry pier, a public service to all comers on this island full of spirit and beauty but few amenities. Feis Eige, a traditional music festival was going on when we were there, and the visiting musicians played around the table, a treat for us diners. (They also gave traditional music classes and with when we there. Next to the cafe is a small market for provisioners and a brand new wash house with showers for the many campers and sailors who visit. But what we most appreciated and want to highlight is the cafe staff. When a bundle of cash accidently slipped out of my wallet in the bath house -- it was all we had for a two-month trip -- the staff found me and returned it. And when CalMac, the ferry service everyone relies on to go anywhere off-island, abruptly cancelled Eigg passengers to accommodate a cruise ship in Mallaig, the staff outdid themselves helping stranded passengers. This is what makes Eigg and its people special in the world. Never change!

  • star rating  Had time after our bike ride and before our ferry departed to sample the delights of the cafe. Great menu selection, whether you wanted just a snack or a full... read more meal. By next year there will be a new and larger cafe, shop and toilet facilities. Will look forward to our next visit to sample more of the food and ambiance.

  • star rating  The food here is great - probably the best beef burger and chicken burger we've had perhaps ever, and the beers are great too.

    I wouldn't come back... read more though because of the drunk locals at the front. After making a really harmless comment about the massively drunk bloke that got in a car to drive home ("it's all downhill I hope") I was asked if I had a problem with it and then told that I should go and stay somewhere else. A couple of others later tried to take the p*#s and persuade me that one of them was the harbour master.

    So despite some really friendly locals that I did speak to and the great service at the restaurant I really won't come back to Eigg. Not a friendly place.

  • star rating  We visited Eigg on a drizzly day and walked for a couple of hours in zero visibility. As we had a few hours to wait for the ferry(which never arrived!),... read more we popped in for some food and shelter to the cafe. The food, and service was excellent and there was a surprisingly wide selection of items on the menu. The establishment is pet friendly and very human friendly. I would recommend a visit to anyone who is visiting the island.

  • star rating  Had a great evening eating with a group at the cafe and then went back for more while waiting for my boat to leave. The food is very tasty and... read more good value. I can personally recommend the fish and chips, mussels, burgers and soup. All homemade using good ingredients. The staff are very friendly and hard working and the views out to sea are mesmerising. During the day there's a real buzz as locals and visitors pile in to eat.

  • star rating  Friendly waiter and possibly the best, most delicious vegetarian haggis in the world! My husband also enjoyed his ‘normal’ haggis panini. Lovely spot.
