I visited Lochinver in mid-July 2012 and was given the Caberfeidh as a recommendation when I got…read morefuel in the village, in reality there are only 2-3 places to eat in the evening, but I wasn't disappointed. There is a restaurant at the front and a bar/lounge at the back overlooking the river and loch which was very pleasant as the sun set. The menu showed a good range, including locally sourced ingredients. A selection of beers, proper real ale as well as fizzy keg (if you must), though I didn't get as far as what looked like a good selection of malt whisky. All of this was at a good price, not burger flippin' cheap but I certainly didn't feel like I was paying over the odds at all. I can't think of a reason why the Caberfeidh shouldn't have 5 stars.

Seating is also available outside. This place is also one street above the main street that runs along the shore. So if you're a tourist (like me) this is a great place to avoid the tourists.

It was a challenge for me since my night vision is not as great as it was when I was 20. The restaurant has a real Scottish vibe to it. There was a large group at the bar and nearly every table was taken by diners. Our waitress was very good and provided excellent service. I had a glass of beer and my wife had a glass of wine. It was raining but the view of the lake at dusk was quite nice, We both ordered the smoked haddock lasagna from the specials menu. Our food arrived in about 15 minutes and included a small salad and two pieces of bread. I though my meal was excellent. It came hot and you could really taste the smoked haddock. My wife thought it had excellent flavor but would have liked more haddock. Still, she said the taste was very good. We hurried out because I was very concerned about negotiating the single track road and narrow bridges at night in the rain. We took it easy and made it back with no issues.

We also tried a selection of local whisky. And we topped it off with the chocolate cake, ice-cream, cream, and sticky toffee dessert.
