The Shieling - Menú

Appalling service. Can’t comment on the food because despite sitting for the best part of 40 minutes, no one took an order as apparently the kitchen was too busy !

Good menu, something for everyone. Shame not open in evening at the moment. Booking advised. Good covid policies in place. Staff great, would definitely visit again if in the area.

Have eaten here very often! Very friendly service from staff and Donald! In all the years I have never had a meal that wasn't perfect! It's a restaurant with table service and outside eating as well as a lounge to relax in! And never ever pressured to leave! Fabulous place!

We were a party of six and had a cooked lunch. Every single meal (starter, main and pudding) was delicious. No one could fault a single thing. The portions were large and the meal was good value for money. The service was also warm and professional. I would definitely recommend The Shieling if you are in the local area.

We had a really good meal here. Cullen skink is the best I've had anywhere and I've had a lot. Fish and chips is really excellent as was the sirloin steak, perfectly cooked. The staff were friendly and helpful. After lunch we had coffees in the very comfortable lounge and a piece of delicious homemade almond slice. We will most definitely be back. The menu is comprehensive with good vegetarian choices and gluten free options. They only open for lunch which is a shame but worth factoring this into your plans.

Always book ahead to avoid disapointment, because it so popular with locals. 6 of us had a family lunch and it was perfect. The waitresses Jackie and Laura were so professional and friendly. My cullen skink soup was delicious. We love the food here. Thank you Donald and staff. Guaranteed a warm welcome every time. You have to book first as this place gets busy. Do not expect to walk in and get a table for meal without booking because it is popular. This restaurant is an asset to this area. The coffees and cakes are great too.

We went to the Shieling twice when we were staying in Poolewe. Firstly just for a snack and drink after a walk however ended up having soup and a sandwich which was very generous in portion size “he doesn’t do small “ the waitress said laughing. I had mushroom soup which was delicious and my partner had the Cullen Skink which she declared the best ever! As it was so good we booked to return with our friends for lunch on the Friday, we all had fish and chips or scampi all of which were really fresh and tasty. The staff are really helpful and friendly and service was great. I would definitely recommend the Shieling if you are in the area but booking ahead especially in high season and weekends...

Popped in here for a few drinks and possibly a meal or with a view to book a meal within days of not possible that day. We were met by a polite but very quiet girl and signed in for Covid tracing. We glanced the pumps and were seated at a coffee table and sofas she had just cleared for us. However she made no attempt to wipe it clean. We ordered our drinks when she came back we were told they don’t serve anything on draft. Cover the pumps with a tea towel then! So we perused the drinks menu just handed to us and ordered. She came back and told us that they had run out. She didn’t give us an alternative. We decided to come back another time… customers do understand about shortages etc but com...

The restaurant sits close to the Gairloch Museum which we had just visited. Family have been to the restaurant before and it came highly recommended, I can see why.It sits on the main road with great views across the water. There's a spacious car park and seating outside. Inside there's plenty of tables in a traditional setting. I imagine post pandemic it's been difficult to get back into the swing of things, if that was the case it didn't show.The service was perfect. You're not going to get fast food turnaround on orders, but then you aren't going to get fast food quality food. The fact that things are cooked to order is explained and I can't say I felt we had to wait long at all.The menu...
