Cail Bruich

Cail Bruich means ‘to eat well’ and this smart restaurant certainly lives up to its name. Experienced Head Chef Lorna McNee has the utmost respect for the quality of her ingredients and a great understanding of how to use them without overcomplicating things. Sauces are a particular highlight – be it a creamy truffle and brown butter emulsion or a rich bisque enhance by XO and chilli – and perfectly demonstrate the classical technique that underpins cooking which also shows a degree of creativity. The kitchen table is ideal if you want to get in on the action.
