We stopped here for a light lunch. The sandwich and millionaire shortbread were lovely. But best of all is the view!! Sadly, it’s going to be changed into accommodation next year.
We'd like to ask the hosts when we can move in. The location of this cafe must be one of the most beautiful places in the world. Tranquil setting on the side of Loch Ewe. The food is delicious and all home made. We had a true Brummie welcome from the owner - friendly, funny and easy going. Such a great find.
We visited the Perfume Studio recently and had a lovely lunch in the cafe. I had a Panini with haggis and a cup of vegetable soup, both of which were excellent. This is a nice place to eat and drink, we've been here a number of times over the years. The staff are friendly and the facilities are smart and clean. There is a nice short wildlife walk in the grounds down to the sea below.
The Aroma Café & Perfume Studio Gift Shop is located within the lovely crofting community of Mellon Charles, close to the village of Aultbea in Wester Ross, Scotland. The premisses has ample outside parking and overlooks picturesque Loch Ewe, providing wonderful views over the loch and towards the distant Torridon mountains and islands of the Outer Hebrides. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the menu included fresh soups, sandwiches, paninis and daily specials, using local produce, fresh salads, a lovely dressing and homemade vegetable crisps, plus a selection of fresh cakes. The attached perfumery business and gift shop sells their unique perfumes and lovely soaps, made with essential oils, which includes a small range made for pets. There is also a photography studio on site offering landscape photography experiences.
I visited this friendly cafe with my family on Friday after driving around the area for a while looking for somewhere that was open. I wish we had found it earlier in our holiday because we enjoyed the visit, the views and chatting with the manager. The coffee was excellent too.
This is a nice place to stop for lunch. The menu is soup and sandwich or more substantial options and obviously cake and coffee etc. The food was as good robust lunch, the soup being the highlight. The view from the location is nice even though it was a misty wet day when I was there. Although this is a bit of a drive down towards a dead end, there are other places on the road there to visit and there were otters and seals to see along the road. The Perfume Studio is currently up for sale but is operating as normal.
Lovely home made tray bakes and quiche. A fabulous view. Bought some soap's too.
Great place at the end of the road before you get to America. Beautiful views. Food and ambiance are super. Cheerful staff. And a great shop
Lovely food and scrumptious cakes. Staff friendly and welcoming. All safe and social distancing rules adhered to :)
Wonderful view located on the coast. Don't get deceived by the name - While it does have a shop area for perfume, it is also a Great place to take a break if you are doing the North Coast 500 road trip.
