Unfortunately this was our most disappointing meal of our week away travelling between Barra and North Uist. We popped in for lunch after staying at the campsite (which was brilliant and I've left a separate review for that), and ordered scampi, chips and peas, and a chicken burger and chips. Everything was cheap freezer food, and as a result, way overpriced... We paid between £9 and £11 each for the dishes.

Honourable mention for the chef regarding the bacon and the flash fried tomato, Brian thought it was braw. Will be back again, thanks to Donald and party for a great stay. P.S. the service from the waitress was exceptional, just a few wee classy touches here and there that made our breakfast...
