Eating out

Dornoch is home to numerous cafes and its hotels provide several restaurants. The food at the golf club is well above par and happily there are several opportunities to indulge in ice cream. Here's a short list of some of our favourites. Booking a table is highly advisable during the peak Summer holiday period. And we have to put in a word for the brilliant Dornoch Stores on Castle Street - lovely people and shelves packed with the sort of food and drink that makes it feel indulgent to eat at home. tel: 01862 810301 https://en-gb.facebook.com/dornochstores/
