Tonight we had a fabulous meal in a fabulous setting Definitely recommend anyone to visit and eat there.. Will be back. We started with the smoked fish platter and the warm duck salad. Then we had haggis stuffed chicken with tarragon sauce and the venison steak in port and juniper sauce.. Amazing. And for dessert we shared the flourless chocolate torte with scrummy salted almond brittle and an amaretto and chocolate sauce.. Heavenly food.. Go if you can!
My husband took myself and our two year old here for a surprise first visit. It was incredible! The journey over was breath taking and a true delight. We had a fantastic experience with a sea eagle on our way. The scenery is fantastic and reminds you how lucky we are to live here. When we arrived over the rollercoaster thrilling drive into daibaig itself you immediately feel at peace. The restaurant was perfect. The welcome we received was genuine and so friendly. It's beautiful with a gorgeous wood burning stove and the views were incredible. Delicious menu with lots to choose from and they couldn't have been more helpful with options for the little one. She even got her own special knife and fork. I could quite easily have stayed there all day and night and can imagine a lovely summers day with incredible food, lovely friendly service and that view. We will most definitely be back and cannot thank the lovely people here for making our trip so memorable. Look forward to seeing you again 😊
Lovely . Worth the interesting drive down to them. Beautiful scenery on the way down. Lovely couple with fresh food lovingly presented and prepared. Must book as it’s a busy place. Well done Amanda and Aart
Always a pleasure to visit Gille Brighde and last night was no exception. Came here for my daughter's 21st and it was well worth the 6 hour round trip from home. Food was excellent, the baked Minger Brie starter was wonderful and I followed that with a venison steak that was cooked to perfection and tasted divine. My daughter really enjoyed the seafood platter. We shared a large cheeseboard for dessert. Service from Beth was brilliant - attentive without being fussy, friendly and efficient, all rounded off with a warm smile 👍🏻 My daughter couldn't think of anywhere she would rather have been and we are already looking forward to our next visit.
You must visit this restaurant!!! I repeat, YOU MUST VISIT! We got there in our campervan, the road was scary and we doubted where we were headed for a minute, but when we finally sat down in this quaint beautiful, welcoming restaurant we knew it was all worth it. We read reviews before, people saying the food was spectacular and still it exceeded those expectations. The food was perfect, fresh, unbelievable, by far the best meal we have had in Scotland. We will be back!
It's well worth the spectacular drive to reach this brilliant little restaurant. Booking is essential as, despite its remoteness, it is very popular. Aart and Angela work hard to produce excellent food. The Sunday lunch (set menu) is a real treat. Vegans and vegetarians are catered for too and they will do their best to accommodate other dietary requirements. There is a small but excellent wine list and a selection of local beers ciders and soft drinks.
Had a beautiful lunch Art and Amanda where both friendly and attentive, the ambiance was light and fun and the food was excellent especially the perfectly cooked scallops, cod and amazing beef that melted in the mouth and that secret gravy!! What a hidden gem!!! Well worth a visit!! Best to book however on this adventure I got lucky just by calling. Thankyou very much 😊
5 stars is not enough! We stumbled on this restaurant without knowing it was there. Cannot express how superb everything was! They are so passionate about their food and you can tell, we gave feedback and Aart was very humble by our opinion but you could tell he loved the positive feedback. What a location and team you have!!
Delicious dinner (hand-dived scallops, venison steak, cod fillet), a lovely host and a cosy atmosphere. A special restaurant with a good and sustainable ethos. Well worth the 1hr drive over from Arrina. We only wish we'd left room for one of the desserts! Thanks again 😊
Brilliant little restaurant, friendly and helpful hosts and a place with a beauty that is hard to beat.
The hand caught scallops are as good as scallops get.
Great food and great people! Dont know about evenings, but for a weekday afternoon we didnt need to make a reservation far ahead. Delicious scallops and fish, and venison steaks.
Superb. Another fabulous meal at the Gille Brighde. The most charming restaurant at the end of the road. Delicious food and wonderful Scottish atmosphere. Highly recommend a visit when you are in the highlands.
