The beautiful Isle of Skye, off the northwest coast of Scotland, in the Inner Hebrides archipelago, is a place of magic. Stunning landscapes, history and warm hospitality have made it a bucket-list destination for UK and international visitors. Not to mention the whisky.
Then there’s the food. Located in a 16th-century hunting lodge, Edinbane Lodge is an AA and Michelin-recognised fine-dining restaurant with rooms, and one of the best places to eat on the island. There, chef-owner and Skye native Calum Montgomery is committed to showcasing the finest local produce in every delicately plated dish, from lobster and scallops to vegetables and herbs grown on site.
Here, Montgomery gives us his picks for where to eat on the Isle of Skye, from brunch to fine dining. He recommends Summer, for “quality sandwiches, made to order” with “clean flavours”, the “gull burger or ‘nduja pork belly benedict” at The Hungry Gull, which he describes as “the perfect mix of proper food and no fuss”, and many more.
