Frigate Cafe And Bistro

Stopped by for some takeaway teas and coffees on the way through Ullapool. Service was good and relatively quick. Didn't sit in but it seemed nice enough. The hot drinks were average, nothing great but not bad either. With not many other options probably one of the better ones there. Popped in to the toilet while waiting which is not the best in terms of cleanliness. If passing through again I would stop to try their food. There is some Limited outdoor seating.

A pleasant restaurant with well prepared nicely presented meals. I had a ham hock terrine starter with salad and toasted bread. The terrine was lovely with plenty of texture and flavour I'd definitely recommend this one, the roasted tomatoes were an odd touch, and a little soft for my taste but aside from that a good dish. The main was smoked ullapool salmon and pea linguine, with a cream sauce. The salmon on this dish was delightful and the dish fairly well balanced but somewhat underwhelming. Truthfully the linguine tasted like any that you could buy from your local supermarket as did the peas. Homemade pasta is so much more tasty and not the hardest to prepare. Overall an ok meal and a nice ambiance but not worthy of any awards.
