Cheerful bustle with happy kids enjoying watersports and other activities. Restaurant and bar for food and drinks; fab views over Loch Insh. Lots to like, repeat visits necessary

Spectacular views overlooking the loch. Had an excellent soup. Unfortunately, the coleslaw was drowned in mayonnaise. Nice atmosphere, but can get busy when large groups arrive.

we though as it was alovely day we would stop for lunch with a view.
When we arrived we were meet by a member off staff the was rude from the start. We were unaware it was table service we were then told to take a seat and they would come to us we had a dog so was told to go through to the bar area and someone would come take our order we ended up going out to the balcony as it was a lovely day. no one came out to take our order. after 10 min we had go in to order we just decided to have a drink instead and go due to feeling like we were a big inconvenience to one member of staff.

Amazing Sunday lunch, haven't had food here for ages and so glad we decided too. Tasty, delicious and generous lunch with a fantastic view from the window. Thank you

An average experience. Food was OK but a tad slow in arriving and not piping hot which, if you eat slowly, means it was cold by the time you were finished. Service was fine but didn't feel valued as a customer. Not the best time to visit I expect. Very quiet until a group of very noisy individuals arrived.

Quiet off season visit. Great view from the restaurant. I'm sure it gets crazy in high season. Food was decent/good.

Le serveur ne vous regarde pas et demande à sa collègue de venir nous dire qu?ils ne servent pas si on ne réserve pas, alors qu?il y avait uniquement 12 personnes dans le restaurant et qu?il était 19h. Soit ils ne veulent pas travailler, soit ils ont un souci avec les touristes ou les français ? cadre agréable pour boire un verre mais je vous conseille de passer votre chemin.

Decent beer, on the other hand a waiter who barely looks you in the eyes to speak to you. Impossible to eat after 7 p.m. If you want to have a good evening. Think about what you finally need to do with this information.

My wife and I went to insh loch to go kayaking. We had a wonderful time . After we decided to go to the restaurant for some food. We read different things about it so we thought we would try it out ourselves. Have to say not much choice for food but the location is amazing. The price of food is a bit high for what it was. There is a bar there but I'm not sure about the price. Some of the staff could learn to smile a little. It is the little things that make a difference. Would I go back? sadly not for the food. For Location, for kayaking, swimming, and the beauty of the surroundings.
Parking: The parking is for the holiday lodges restaurant and for loch insh water sports e.g kayaking, sailing.

We enjoyed both dinner and breakfast here, reasonably priced and friendly staff.
Shout out in particular to Chef Deno(?) who was more than happy to make accommodations for our group arriving bang on the clock for last orders and extra items during the breakfast buffet.

Dropped in here as it appeared to be a lovely restaurant on a beautiful loch.
It was in a lovely picturesque position, waitress duly took us to a table for lunch and we both ordered the boathouse burger which we had seen outside on the menu.
When the food arrived it looked delicious, however when we started eating it it was very obvious that there was very little meat content in the burger and in fact tasted like one of the highly processed ?burger van? type. While eating it oozed and dripped out fat onto the table and plate and certainly did not live up to the price tag offered on the menu of £15.95.
We did not complain, merely noted that we would not return to this establishment and went to pay the bill (neither of us finished our meal).
When we went to the member of staff to pay the bill there were no pleasantries, or even courteous manners, she just held out the pay machine. I paid the bill and asked for a receipt as it seemed a little more expensive than expected. She gave a huff and walked off to get the receipt.
I studied the receipt outside and we had been charged £17.50 for each burger which was even more of an insult when the food had been shocking and the price on the menu was £15.95.
Ok so the difference of £1.55 each is not a lot but this is not on. We were not offered a receipt at the time of paying and now I understand why, they are basically ripping people off after serving sub-standard food.
I hope this review helps others when choosing to eat here.

Great food, only outmatched by their great service. Great to have a place like this when you've come back from sports or hiking to revitalise you. I got that duck in the gift shop because it's cute and as you can tell, the breakfast was generous and delicious.
