About us

Shieldaig’s friendly local bar and Coastal Kitchen restaurant has a magnificent situation on the sea front in the centre of the village and we specialise in meals featuring, among other seasonal local produce, fresh local seafood delivered straight from the jetty to the kitchen door each day.

Enjoy the local “craic” and foaming pints of An Teallach Brewery real ales downstairs, or book a table upstairs in the Coastal Kitchen – all with fabulous views across the loch to Shieldaig Island (home to our nesting pair of sea eagles) and the open sea beyond.

We regularly have live traditional or folk music in the bar on Saturday evenings. Everyday enjoy tea and scones and other home baking and on Sundays enjoy our fabulous brunch over your morning papers.

We also run the award-winning Hotel and restaurant next door www.tighaneilean.co.uk.

Being ten minutes past 8 did cost us our place and we were sit in the pub with the same food options. They are great 👍 but as we weren't up for something fancy on a wet day we just went with good old fish and chips. And we didn't find them great to be honest or at least they did not meet our estimations. But giving this three stars would likely not be fair. The staff was nice but the pub can be quite loud downstairs. Beer selection could be greater as well as non alcoholics. As someone might also need to drive. Outside seating is really awesome though and there is a really great coffee machine.

A quiet and welcoming spot with lower level pub with upper level dining room service. There is lovely outdoor seating if you’re there the right time of year. Be sure to call ahead; limited seating and availability. Don’t hesitate to call same day late into the season, however, as we had luck getting in same day for an early dinner (early October). There is open seating in the pub but expect competition. Best off with a reservation. Excellent local seafood specials, including a platter with a sampling of all the in-season delicacies. Mussels starter was perfect! Scallops were perfectly done. Seafood platter was VERY generous. Highly recommend!

Nestled in the very small and romantic town of Shieldag is this extraordinary little restaurant. We were pleasantly surprised by the setting and food. Upstairs has a beautiful view of the lake from inside the small dining area. For starters we had the seafood chowder which was fresh and flavourful. Main course was the pork belly, which I thoroughly enjoyed! My guests had the seafood platter and langoustines. The seafood spread was excellent, the only thing I can pick at is that the Langoustines were not cleaned properly. I understand that this is common in some of these towns, however the taste is unpleasant and strong. Overall it was a good night and we will return.

Had the most delicious meal here today. Honestly cannot fault it. The soup was divine. The beyond meat burger was delicious and the garlic bread oh wow! Beautiful surroundings. It was a great way to end my holiday in Scotland. Would definitely return here if I was able to!
