The Royal usually does Fish and Chips on a friday night - you should book by calling ( see Hoy Facebook page for latest news ). We have been sampling Fish and Chips across the Highlands and Islands over the last several years and we are happy to report that the Longhope Fish and Chips are the best - thanks Alan and Sabine , great work. Oh , and it's always a nice wee night in the traditional bar with open fire and draught lager. Loved it.

Going into this bar (we weren't at the hotel) is like going to a friend's house. place the order the owner of the place will inquire about your well-being and discuss with you. A good fire adds to the softness and well-being of the place. A customer at the counter discreetly offered us, via the owner of the place, a Whiskey. What a welcome !! on this superb island.We highly recommend.Marie and Jean Marc

Shame there are only five stars to give, as this place deserves at least 8. If you need to learn what the word "hospitality" means (because it is not "the industry with pubs, hotels, and Sky Sports TV at every wall" but about making people feeling welcome), this pub should be in Sevres near Paris in that Institute as the universal standard of the welcoming pub.The fish and chips cooked by Sabine are brilliant, and Alan, the landlord, is the most welcoming host you can imagine, taking care that you'll integrate well with other guests.The regulars are like a family, but don't be afraid that you'll be left outside - on the countrary, you'll know that you made some good friends in no time.Our night in this pub was so fantastic, that we let the locals convince us to stay for another night - and it was the best decission of our whole holidays.On the technical note - there is a fireplace, and Alan puts the fire pit outside as well for those, who want to look in awe at the wonderful skye during bright, summer nights. The bar has a wide selection of drinks, reasonably priced, and the building itself has a great atmosphere and is clean and well maintained.The visit to this place was the highlight of our trip to Orkney and while we are usually tend to go to new places everytime, in this case we are already thinking how and when we can come back. It is THE BEST pub in Scotland, period.
