I love the dirty fries and sizzling beef at this place ? absolutely amazing! The friendly service keeps me coming back. However, the dark interior, while cozy, feels a bit too contrasting with the bright sunlight through the big windows during the day, making my eyes feel strained and tired! I know it's bizarre but I find it really uncomfortable!

Had a lovely meal here, we have been wanting to visit for awhile so delighted we was passing at the right time,Food was lovely we had prawn cocktail and dirty fries to start, both was delicious but huge portion for a starter.Mains fish and chips and chicken burger, both was perfectly cooked and tasted amazing.Staff was very friendly and nice the younger ones tend to hover around waiting for you to finish so a little of putting. But there harmless and just trying to do a good job.Will definitely return

Arrived in the early evening on Friday & came here to check in to our accommodation. We were warmly welcomed, the gentleman was very polite and handed over everything we needed to know. The place has a calming and cosy ambience, lovely decor and overall it's a really inviting place. We booked for dinner and were sat by the window and beside the warm log fire. We had the Pinot Noir option to drink which turned out to be really enjoyable. To start we had the prawn cocktail starter between us, then I had the special BBQ rack of ribs and she had the Haddock. We shared each others' dishes and very much enjoyed them. Finished with the cheesecake and by that point we were very well fed. We were very well looked after and it was a pleasure dining at the bay restaurant. Thank you everyone! This was a birthday weekend away and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Wanted to thank you for a splendid time and I'm wishing all the best on your future. Dunbeath was a great getaway. Thanks again!

Had an amazing spontaneous hour or two here. The October Fest theme was a nice touch and the staff, food and beer were excellent. If you?re on the N500 it is a must stop!

Across the board one of the best (of many excellent) impromptu meals we had on the road in Scotland.As the proprietor - a lovely and fascinating guy who makes and displays his own weapons, among other things - told us, they are more of a local joint, open year-round rather than deeply reliant on a few month of tourist trade. This means their prices are more reasonable and they?ve had time to craft their experience (they are only a few years old).This was far more than just a ?local joint? to us, however? the wind-swept patch overlooking the ocean and cliffs down the coast is stunning, the staff was as warm and relaxed as any we met, and the food was fantastic. While we were skeptical of haggis in general, we found several examples that were excellent, and the haggis fries here were one of the most delicious we found.All in all this is not just a place we?ll go back if we?re in the neighborhood, we PLAN to go back here next time we are in Scotland!

Absolutely disgusting never go back or recommend it to friends Manager rude foul mouth and will get his comeuppance very soon he should remember he is in Scotland In the answer to the mangers review that I was a part of a large group. There was 6 people 1 pensioner. 2 disabled people and 3 other adults. 2 of us didn't go outside and the others weren't throwing them. We were not rude to staff.and it was the manger who swore at us first. He was then really rude .we went in with our visitors to enjoy a meal.would never go again.

We came for dinner, fish and chips, burger and chicken burger. All very tasty and freshly cooked. Good selection of draught beers and don?t get me going on the amazing views across Dunbeath Bay. Definitely worth a visit.

We had a really lovely meal here today, and used a voucher our sons had recently bought for my BIG birthday, which has just passed. Starters delicious & burgers were amazing. There sadly was an issue with the expiry date on the voucher (it said it expired Aug '23 - should have read Aug '24!!!) - the owner thankfully agreed to honour it. A lovely lassie served us. The view across Dunbeath bay is amazing.
