This was our first visit since 2021 when we had an awful experience. Thankfully Anderson?s is back on track and we ( a group of 7 on last night of our Scottish holiday) all enjoyed our meal. My fish pie and mash on the side was delicious and the rest had a variety of pizzas. A great way to finish a wonderful holiday and look forward to coming back soon.

Fantastic meal last night. I dined with five friends and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal. One friend commented that her risotto was the best she had ever had and she has travelled widely all over the world. Thank you Anderson?s. Steve?s cooking is really wonderful and Sean is brilliant front of house. So happy to see Anderson?s back to how it used to be pre-Covid. We will be back

We love Andersons and always make an effort to visit when staying nearby. You should too: it's worth travelling from Aviemore, Glenmore or further afield to this really good restaraunt. Last night we ate sourdough pizza with delicious toppings, but were tempted by so many other things on the menu: the fish pie, venison with mash, tthe spicy squash and chick pea stew...We know from past experience that they would all have been seriously good, prepared by chefs who really know and care about good food. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the decor fab: red walls, great artwork and a giant fork and spoon on the wall which I had to photograph for my daughter, who believes Andersons is ready to serve giants too. Do visit: this is the best restaurant we know of in this area!

Lovely food spoiled by the attitude of the staff. Booked a table which it states on the booking app you have for two hours. After our main course we were the only guests left. When we asked for 5 mins to think about dessert it was obvious to us that the staff were not happy about this. Lots of eye rolling and non verbal gestures. We felt really unwelcome at this point. Staff obviously wanted to close up and go home. Spoiled what should have been a nice evening.

The best village store and post office about. It has everything from groceries, chilled, frozen, hot food, treats, essentials items, cards, postage supplies, take away coffee, local produce, fruit and veg, fresh baking and lots more.The staff are great too, really look after their customers including the elder folk of the village and surrounding area. The place feels like one of the hearts of the local community. The place truly is a credit to their owners and their staff past and present.

Great wee shop with very friendly service from Beth and the rest of the staff. Really well stocked and we always stop here for coffee and cakes on cycling trips. The apple tarts are the best we've ever tasted. Highly recommended.

Friendly helpful staff. I am in self isolation after testing positive for COVID. Beth kindly brought my groceries to my front door in Boat of Garten. Much appreciated. Thank you very much Beth.

Ordered online, very easy to do. Selected pickup time online and pizzas were ready to collect at the exact time promised. Pizzas were stonebaked and hot as they straight out the oven. Very tasty and we?d eat there again in ever back in the area.

Booked for the Friday night, was greeted by a friendly hostess and showed to our table. Water was provided and our drink order taken and given menus. The Mrs opted for one of their wood fired pizzas and I had the shin of beef pie, followed by a chocolate fondant with berries and homemade ice cream. All were delicious. The service , food and ambiance was first class. Well worth a visit. PS , one small criticism. Could do with larger red wine glasses so when you order a large glass of wine you can still give it a swirl about to get the bouquet of the wine. Thanks to Steven and the team. Andy and Linda.

Can't rate the quality of the food or service because we were turned away at the door for our reservation. I called several hours ahead for a same day reservation. Was told they could take me at 7:45. We drove 20 minutes to get there from Aviemore to be told they thought I said Sunday which was the next day. I explained I was not going to be in town the next day so that was not possible, that I had asked for an reservation that night. They said they did not have room for me and turned me away. I asked for recommendations to another restaurant and they sent me back to Aviemore where I am staying. No clue if I will get in anywhere at this point but will definitely be eating late. Advice to the restaurant, if you make a mistake own it and fix it!

Looked on Google maps and there didn?t look to be any stored in Boat, but went to have a look anyways and was very pleasantly surprised to find the village store, the staff were extremely friendly, and the prices were good, we bought ice creams 1 being vegan, milk, and a usb C cable which I didn?t expect them to have. Definitely 5 stars for friendly service and products sold ?

We were excited to go and wanted to come back to try all their pizzas, but the staff behind the counter was so incredibly rude and disdainful towards us. Our last dish he practically threw down onto the table. If I was the owner I would not be impressed to know my staff acts that way when I?m not there ? they lost a weeks worth of orders from us.

Eating at Anderson's is akin to a meal in any good local restaurant in a food area in Europe. The staff are as good as is the food - warm, friendly and knowledgeable. We ate there on two occasions within a fortnight and the food was beautifully cooked; cod on the first visit was fresh and flakey with a good spice sauce; on the second visit, my venison was melt in the mouth and the sauce delicious. My wife's calves' liver was perfectly cooked. This is a gem. If you're looking for a relaxed, evening with absolutely delicious food, this is it! The wine list may be a little limited for some but it's been well chosen to cater for most tastes.

An excellent meal, good service. A good atmosphere. The churro dessert was particularly delectable. A touch of quality!
