The Harbour View Restaurant

Where hearty classics meet the taste of the sea

 

 

Local dining on the Harbour

Our stylish Harbour View Restaurant specialises in vibrant dishes that showcase Orcadian produce, from the finest catches to the freshest field fodder, all complemented by an attractive wine list – and an even better selection of whiskies.

Our menus have been designed to suit all taste buds with a mouth-watering selection of local seafood and classic pub favourites. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten free-menus are also available. Please note our menus are samples only, and subject to seasonal changes. 

Booking is essential (except breakfast).

We don't allow dogs in our restaurant but they are welcome in our Skippers Bar and Highland Park Bar.
