Knoydart Pottery and Tearoom in Highland

The perfect place to enjoy a hot drink and snack while we waited for the ferry. I had the blackberry flapjack and it was delicious! The breakfast smelt amazing too, will have to try that next time!

Lovely atmosphere and stunning views out onto Loch Nevis! Friendly young girl too serving! Serves nice selection of food and also sells pottery which I recommend getting as a souvenir! Also one of the most remote cafes on the UK mainland - can only get there by ferry from Mallaig or 18 mile hike over the hills!!!

A warm friendly welcome for our breakfast - and a sunny day to enjoy a stunning view of the bay! We’ll be back for certain!!

We had an excellent light lunch and all the staff were very friendly. It was good value and an excellent introduction to Knoydart. It’s setting has lovely views.

Great food and views from the deck patio right on the water and dog friendly outside. Wonderful service and the staff are very helpful with any questions about the area.

Visited multiple times over several days. Ate their breakfast, cakes and even a takeaway sarnie for on the hill all of which were wonderful and oh what a location!

We spent 18 days in Knoydart and a trip to the Knoydart tearoom and pottery was always one of the highlights of the day. There was always a warm welcome and a range of delicious food which is freshly cooked. The menu has daily specials and the coffee is very good. Would highly recommend to visit when over on Knoydart.

A recent vist with the most amazing soup of the day roasted carrot .. simply one of the best soups I’ve ever had a gourmet standard , sat in next to a roaring fire with the heavens open can’t wait to come back :) highly recommend to anyone visting knoydart

Excellent, freshly-prepared lunch. Yummy Latte and Mocha. Every community should have a gathering place this well loved.

Popped in for lunch on Friday 23 Sept for soup, coffee and scones after a VERY early start from Hamilton to catch the 1000 ferry from Mallaig. Lovely cauliflower soup followed by a smooth coffee and tasty plain scone with butter & jam....with a spectacular view from the picture window. Monday 26 Sept saw us pop in for coffee and fruit scones (straight from the oven) as a wee snack before catching the ferry at 1100hrs Pleasant surrounding and lovely food, with excellent service.....such a pity that it's not open at the weekends, but we all need our days of rest and play. But i think you are missing a trick here?

This most excellent of cafés was a major factor in ensuring our visit to Knoydart was the most excellent of days. They know how to whip it good.

We stayed in Inverie for three days and called here every day. The staff are great, the food, especially breakfast cobs, is exactly what you want really nice food and good value. venue is of course wonderful being Inverie but best of all is the staff who are really friendly and helpful.

After walking all day we arrived at the cafe in time before it closed at 3pm. The service was excellent, together with the best coffee and most delicious cakes! It was a wonderful surprise and the best treat after a long day walking. Very grateful and satisfied customers !

This cafe is a real find. Super food with home baking and great coffee with a view over the bay that is just the best.

We had a delicious scone and tea, everybody there was very nice ! The terrasse outside is absolutely fabulous !

A great place for breakfast with their selection of pastries and scones, or a pitstop during the middle of your hike. The outside deck, coffee or tea and coffee in hand, is brilliant when the weather is beautiful.

Well worth a visit. I was disappointed that the pub was shut but this place made up for it. Good food, great service and a cracking view. Many thanks.

Our party of nine had lunch and breakfast here during our short visit to Inverie. Food was lovely, especially the giant breakfast rolls and the homemade soup. Staff were very friendly, knowledgeable about the local are, and made us feel very welcome. The view across...

Came here on a daytrip, walking around Inverie and countryside. Amazing views from the rear terrace, this is what it's all about. I had a coffee which was great, my other half had same a cake which was reported to be great. My only regret...

I could not recommend the Knoydart Pottery and Tea Room more highly. Last night we had the Friday fish and chips. I am a coelilac and always manage my expectations when I see GF options offered. Intentions are always good but it’s difficult to make...

We had breakfast buns and drinks when we got off the ferry which set us up for a walk around the island and then stopped off for lunch, the homemade soups and specials board was all delicious and a lovely credibly atmosphere

We popped in here at lunchtime and had specials off the chalkboard, tea and coffee. Both dishes were very good and the place was buzzing; it is clearly loved by the locals as well as visitors. Would have visited again yesterday after our walk but...

had a lovely roll and some nice coffee in here. great outlook. nice outside area. only thing I would ask for would be a full breakfast.

Homemade soups, lovely welcoming atmosphere, nourishing in every way. The views all around are beyond belief and you can spot seabirds and sea otters while you sip your freshly made coffee

My son and I spent many happy hours here during our 11 night stay on Knoydart. The food is delicious, freshly prepared and served with a friendly smile. Plenty to keep the family entertained in terms of board games and reading material or just take...

I and my partner came down from the hills wet and exhausted, we were taken in by this little oasis. Filled with tea, cakes and warmth from the atmosphere alone we were able to carry on enjoying Knoydart. Best place in town for lunch by a country mile.

The place was busy. We were greeted with smiles and friendly banter! The coffees (americano, cappuccino and flat whites) were perfect. The oatmeal slice (flat jack, I think it’s called) was delicious and the view amazing! Well worth a stop for a cups!

The final leg of my trip involved stopping into this lovely cafe where the ingredients are fresh and the service is warm and inviting. There are lots of gifts and souvenirs from local artists you can't find anywhere else. Tried the Cauliflower Broccoli soup and...

The staff here are fantastic! Could not do enough for us. It was a birthday trip and they brought the birthday girl a Tunnocks teacake with a candle. So kind. Also, the view here is unbelievable. We were lucky with the weather and it was...

Heard so many good things about this place as a tearoom and having stayed in a property over the road from it I can confirm that it is very popular with both locals and tourists alike. We needed sandwiches for a lunch on the hills...

The Knoydart Pottery Tea Room is a must for every visitor to Knoydart. A great selection of refreshments and locally made food all served by very hospitable staff with a smile. Thoroughly enjoyed my coffee and scone while chilling out staring down the Loch Nevis.

Nice little tearoom and eatery in Knoydart overlooking the bay. This restaurant offers both inside and balcony dining. We stopped in for lunch and ordered to soup of the day with homemade fresh bread and a salad & cheese plate. We also took in a Tea on the balcony after lunch since it was a beautiful day. The food here is delicious and priced reasonably. Service was very good and friendly. Unfortunately alcohol is not served at this establishment however they have a variety of soft drinks available. #knoydartrestaurant #knoydartcafes

Recommended by a local and gosh loved this after a morning climbing. Lovely friendly Scottish welcome and food that was a cross between your grannys best and metropolitan dining.

This little gem is a very cosy haven particularly on chilly wet days. A warm welcome is guaranteed. Delicious soups, snacks, cakes and coffee. Sit back and enjoy.

We visited here a few times during our week staying in Inverie and cant recommend it enough. Cosy interior with great seating outside - brilliant views. The staff were very accommodating and friendly. Lovely cakes and coffee. I cant imagine how they keep up with the baking! My daughter was particularly impressed that the raspberry sauce was put THROUGH the ice-cream and not just on top - so much so she wrote about that very thing when back at school! lol!

Doesn't look much from outside in fact many people would probably walk past not thinking you could get food inside. Coffee and cakes were perfect and view out over loch was an added bonus. Definitely recommend a visit. Old saying comes to mind never judge a book by its cover.

The tea room offers homemade food, hot and cold drinks and is a great place to visit whether you’re visiting Knoydart for the day or resting after bagging a munro or two.

The Old Forge pub was unexpectedly closed so we walked on down to this tea room. Glad we did because its s great. A nice choice of snacks and meals available. Very helpful staff and altogether a great atmosphere.

Had a lovely lunch with a beautiful view. Was on a restricted diet so I couldn’t try the pastries but the looked delicious. Had egg salad sandwich, soup and tea.

During our stay in Knoydart, we loved popping in here for lunch, and sitting out on the deck with nothing in front of us but stunning views of the sea and Eigg in the distance. The scones were scrumptious, fresh and fluffy, and when we treated ourselves to large slices of carrot cake, we felt we had hit the jackpot. We also had lunch there a couple of times, great sandwiches but the smoked mackerel pate, made from a fresh catch from the loch, was divine.

Well with a visit or two for tea coffe and cake served charmingly. Great views from outside table and very conveniently in centre of Inverie. Dies lunches too which are good. No pottery though....

After our disappointing visit to the Old Forge Inn across the road, we decided to try our luck at this lovely tearoom. Well, what a difference in service and atmosphere. The tea was lovely and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The view from the decking outside is sublime.

What a wonderful, quaint, quirky, friendly place. With views to die for. I went there a few times over the weekend. I'm one of those annoying vegans, but I don't ever expect places to cater for me. Especially considering their remoteness. Blown away by the MASSIVE slice of delicious vegan blueberry cake. I ordered a bake potato and beans and the owner (I think?) came over and asked if I wanted vegan cheese with it. You struggle to have that option in a major city, let alone Knoydart. The cakes change daily and the options are mouthwatering. Great options for kids too. It was busy with visitors but you can tell the tearoom is the hub of the community. Just a wonderful place to visit. And you can sit out on the decking watching the boats go by.

Superb location overlooking the harbour and loch. Sit outside if the weather is good. Lovely coffee with a very friendly staff who are happy to tell you all about Knoydart

This really is a fantastic tea room. Excellent selection of drinks and really good home cooked cakes and lunches. The people are really friendly and the prices are very reasonable. Where else could you buy a Tunnock’s tea cake pin cushion? Really great place to eat and drink and chill out.

Lovely wee cafe, visiting a couple of times in a 4 night stay in Inverie. Had a lunch here and breakfast rolls but never made it at the right time for cake, disappointingly.

We had bacon rolls and a pot of tea sat round the back on the veranda on a chilly morning. Everything was very nice! We will be back!

Our 2nd stay on Knoydart was filled with trepidation as most of the eating options were closed for one reason or another.

A very friendly little restaurant and the ideal place for a light meal after a long walk. The "Soup of the day" was excellent, a meal in itself; and the Home-made bread is a treat. Highly recommended !!

After an 'entertaining' MTB ride across Knoydart, including a hike a bike up 1700 ft , the cafe provided a superb and friendly place to stop, with great cakes, snacks and friendly service .

This is a really lovely place to while away some time, looking at the sea, with a cup of delicious coffee. In the village, near to the pier.

Very cosy and welcoming. Stunning views. Great place to enjoy lunch or an afternoon cuppa and a slice of homemade cake. Highly recommended.

We only had simple soup lunch here a couple of times. Very welcoming, tasty and reasonable soup, and good coffee as well. The cakes looked brilliant but we never found an excuse to eat them.

posto accogliente e piacevole, gestito da tre donne appassionate di erbe e cucina, servono buonissime colazioni, pranzi e torte! consiglio:...

The staff were lovely , really friendly , we popped in for a cuppa before doing the knoydart in a nut shell walk .I'm coeliacs and I asked what scope they had for me they had gluten free bread already in the freezer and reserved me a French stick for my lunch. When we did return for lunch the French stick with egg mayo was delicious and the side salad was fresh with a herb dressing and I hummed it all up .

Ate here a couple of times during our stay on Knoydart. Food was lovely and very reasonably priced and they...

Could be a lovely cafe but didn't feel welcome. Not chat, no smile from the staff. IF you want people...

Fuimos en Loch Nevis y recogió un amarre obsequio del pub. No podíamos desembarcar hasta la mañana siguiente por el viento y el mar revuelto. Pero cuando conseguimos que nos quedamos encantados de tener un maravilloso café, zumo de naranja y dos de los mejores tocino butties que hemos tenido en mucho tiempo, todo servido por los dos dueños encantadores mujeres. Su cerámica fue expuesto. Luego nos costó un poco a la fila de atrás a nuestro barco, pero luego navegara lejos contentos con nuestro desayuno alegre.

Isla and her sister were just fantastic to us when we visited Knoydart. The island has the feeling of major festivities having taken place the night before we arrived. We soon found out that there had been a wedding and our understanding is that many on the island got involved in the festivities. When we arrived at Isla's we were disappointed with ourselves as we had arrived at the island without our walking boots. Isla helped us sort this out (which was absolutely kind and well above and beyond any expectations) while delivering gorgeous coffee, hot chocolate and scones - we were and still remain so grateful

On Knoydart for a week of hillwalking, instead I got a week of low cloud and steady heavy rain. Walking the 20 minutes from our accommodation to this tearoom was about as far as I got, so I ended up being there 3 times during the week for coffee and a cake or scone. It was very nice and seemed to be very popular. The scones with jam and clotted cream were fine, and the chocolate cake very tasty. They do have an outside terrace from which you would get a great view across the bay if you could see anything for the cloud and rain.

Knoydart was a wonderful place to visit . This cafe is lovely - however we were really disappointed that they couldn't manage to fry up an egg roll at 1pm (only up till 11.30am on menu).The cafe wasn't busy so there was definitely time - just an unwillingness even tho the waitress did go and ask the cook. We didn't order anything and didn't return for the rest of our trip - lots of lost custom!

After a really good walk in terrible rain we decided to carry on walking past the gathering out guest house to have a drink at this little cafe.We had 2 x luxury hot chocs and my partner have a cheese full length sub and I have there delicious chocolate and cola cake which was divine.Very clean place also must be good as the locals use it again lots of community spirit in the place

This friendly team room is a delight with fabulous views over the bay. We had a delicious lunch there and a welcome escape from the rain!

The food here is great - amazing views over the Loch and friendly service. The homemade cakes are a must.

We visited the tearoom for breakfast and the wonderful view. The place has a relaxed atmosphere and excellent food. Our half hour breakfast also turned into an 11s stop for coffee and cake. Would highly recommend this place.

Great food and drink, with very friendly and polite owners.Lovely coffee, and breakfasts The view off the deck is incredible.

Popped into this place before heading out for a walk around the area. Good tea and a nice selection of cakes. Staff were friendly and cost was perfectly reasonable

The place was packed which was no surprise as it was pouring. I chose the leek and potato soup. It was easily the best leek and potato with chunks of potato and tasty leeks visible. Magnificent! I resisted temptation but the cakes looked wonderful. A great view from the large window. Inverie is well worth a visit, has a fascinating history and the pottery and tearoom is well worth a visit.

After hiking we randomly came across this gem and had some great coffee and some food. We sat on the deck enjoying the break taking views. It was a perfect place to relax and enjoy life.

Don't go to the pub...come here....superb home made food....soup, cakes, bacon butties...sit inside or outside overlooking the sea. Lovely friendly staff. Great cafe.

Popped in for coffee and a snack and particularly enjoyed a haggis and cheese sandwich. We ended up spending a few ours drinking coffee and reading magazines. I haven't been to many coffee shops that leave New Scientist and the Economist out for their customers.

A lovely family place on the sea loch front. A few tables inside with great cakes etc, and a fab decked area overlooking the loch. Definitely a good stop after a good walk on Knoydart.

Such a treasure to find such a beautiful tea room with amazing food! Service was excellent. Home made food was lovely the soup especially was heavenly! I really recommend that anyone visiting the area goes out of their way to get a cup of tea and humongous scone at this wonderful little tea room!

Would like to have visited. But closed on Saturday's and Sunday's .Not a good a service plenty of other people around looking for somewhere to eat !!!!!

Popped in for a second breakfast prior to a day's hillwalking. Friendly welcome. Tea and breakfast rolls brought out to us whilst we enjoyed the sunshine and fantastic view. Owner offered a top up of the pot if we needed more tea and this was subsequently done including an extra teabag. Rolls were fresh, fillings were hot and freshly cooked. All this is so simple, but so rarely achieved by so many places! If you visit Knoydart the tearoom is a must do.

We were surprised to find the tea room open and quite busy on a wet December Wednesday. We just had very welcome hot drinks but the food looked fab and the staff were super friendly

Great place for a cup of tea and a roll \ sandwich. Even better when sitting outside overlooking the loch.The ice-cream isn't bad either.

We have visited this little tearoom on our previous visit to knoydart. And this time, I think we ate there 3 times! Twice for lunch, and once for breakfast, with our little vegan friend who they also cater for!It's such a cosy little tea room and the food is delicious. The staff are really welcoming and lovely to chat to. The home made bread is yummy. We took cakes home for tea in the evening which were a real treat. Thank you. Emily and Dan the plumber x

We ate here a couple of times, once was just snacks and as we had our dog we sat round the front with a lovely view over Loch Nevis, unfortunately the rains came down and we scurried away to eat our food at our accommodation. The day we left Knoydart we had our breakfast here and very nice it was too, also recommend the lemon drizzle cake. The girls in the cafe were friendly and helpful giving us an insight to the area.

This a great little place, and really fills the gap in the town when the pub is closed. The staff were friendly and happy to help, and the evening menu had a good variety of options. The food was all cooked to order and thoroughly enjoyable.

The Pottery and Tearoom is a "must visit" port-of-call to Knoydart visitors and is now along with the Village Hall, Inverie's social hub. Food is homemade, wholesome and excellent and the staff are helpful and friendly. The evening meals, especially the Lamb Shank with Couscous, are to be recommended and there is always a good vegetarian choice on offer. Now the best Inverie venue to meet up with locals and fellow visitors, cosy and comfortable inside, the new balcony overhangs the sea and views across Loch Nevis are peerless. The Pottery and Tearoom chooses not to have a licence and so take your own wine or beer along to enjoy a convivial and not too expensive evening on Wednesday (when the Old Forge has decided to close), Thursday and Friday during the summer months or pop in for morning tea and coffee and lunchtime and afternoon snacks on Monday to Saturday throughout the year. Definately a place to visit in Inverie and the only place to visit in the heart of the village, during the Old Forge's periods of closure.

Friendly place with great atmosphere. Good wholesome food and good value for money. The staff were really welcoming and the meal was well prepared and well presented. Well worth a visit! They are not Licensed but happy if you 'byob'. During peak times they get busy so it's worth booking to avoid being disappointed.

We ate here on two nights. Food was great, and the service was really great. After a longer day walking than planned we walked past at about nine, when I'm sure the staff were starting to wind down from a very busy evening service. But they were incredibly welcoming and kept the kitchen going long enough to rustle us up some dinner. At that stage we'd probably have eaten anything, but fortunately we didn't have to - we had two superb dishes followed by a fabulous Cranachan. Very glad the old forge was shut so that we got the chance to eat here twice.

Our group has been here before and has emptied the place of all edibles, this time we were much more refined and received excellent home baked cakes, scones, the baguette I had was stuffed with prawns, the only downside was I had to sit out in the rain and midges with my Bernese Mountain Dog as the kitchen is part of the cafe, but I would suggest its a long shot that the hygiene police would arrive all that way unannounced. Totally recommend this place, if it served beer it would put the poxy Old Forge out of business.

Much better than the famous Old Forge. The tearoom serves more than decent lunches (panini with haggis and cheese was great) and the deck offers great views at the bay. Small kitchen with a friendly young staff.

What a delightful addition to Knoydart - gorgeous home baked scones served with jam and clotted cream mmmmm! this is a wonderful gem of a place with really the nicest staff and the deck overlooking loch Nevis is just the thing that dreams are made of! A tip for the owner/s to perhaps provide dog water bowls dotted about might be a nice addition but we carry a bottle of water and tuppware 'bowl' anyway but aside from that this place deserves every one of the five stars I have awarded! Dinner there tomorrow night with a byob - can't wait!

Enjoyed a plate of soup and a cup of tea. Lovely decking overlooking the sea. Very clean and food beautifully cooked, pleasant staff, good service. Limited opening days and hours so best to check in advance.

Besides having lunch of homemade soup and bread that is wonderfully fresh we had an evening meal which was far superior to the one we had in the pub down the road and far cheaper. Service is very friendly again totally different from the pub which we found to be very poor. If your visiting be sure to visit here you won't be disappointed.

Great location. Friendly staff who serve with a smile. All food is freshly made and tastes good. Has decking area for al fresco, weather permitting.

Much more than a good place for coffee and tea; also food for when you don't want to hike 5 miles to the point to eat, or the Old Forge is closed, or are just looking for something simple, quiet, and quick.Open pretty much 7 days a week, with a small break in the late afternoon / early evening. Very kid and dog friendly with things to entertain the kids...the dog you will have to entertain yourself, or the tourists undoubtedly will if it likes loves.If you are hiking or want to do a picnic, they will pack lunches for you.Deserts are unbelievable!

Whether we wanted just a cake and cappuccino or home made soup and baguettes we found friendly efficient service, reasonable prices and delicious food . Just sorry we never got to try the evening meals. Excellent experience on each occasion we visited (about 6 during our 2 week holiday).

Great little place, we enjoyed lovely coffee and scones. My mum is a very good critique of scones but she ate the whole thing stating they were as good as hers and that is hard to beat so very well done. Lovely staff and service, keep up good work!

Lovely little place, over looking the sea.Fresh scones, Clotted cream, jam and a pot of tea on the terrace made it the perfect way to spend an hour. Lovely, friendly staff.

We ate here a couple of times recently. The food is good and really well presented. Scones were very fresh and tasty and the coffee was fine. The new decking area gives a lovely place to sit out and watch the boats come and go. My only gripe - no sugar-free drinks apart from sparkling water. There was cola but it was Fentimans, full of sugar.

Dropped in for a little snack and enjoyed the cakes on offer. A lovely airy and friendly space with local crafts on offer whilst you sip your tea and look out over the waters.

Lovely location overlooking the sea loch. Sat outside had soup and sandwiches followed by ice cream and cake. Coffee good. Waiter very pleasant. Reasonably priced. Only thing could fault was egg mayo in roll was still warm and yolk not hard enough for my liking. Minor grumble.

The photo doesn't do this place justice as it now has a deck on the loch side with beautiful views. We stopped in for breakfast just as it opened for the day. There were 2 vegetarians and a vegan but nothing was too much trouble for them. The food was well cooked and great value and the staff stopped by for a chat. Definitely recommended.

We had tea and scones/cake here twice. The terrace is a sun trap in good weather and the views wonderful. The teapot was generous and the tea good. One day the scone was very good, the other day a bit hard. The cake was nice, though not really £2.95 worth of nice. The staff were friendly and helpful and we were drawn back, hard scone notwithstanding.

Glad I found this place as the pub was shut & it had started raining hard, had a very nice lunch of baked potato & salad served quickly and by friendly staff.

We called in for breakfast as we waited for the ferry back to Mallaig and wished we had come in before. We had freshly prepared breakfast rolls and coffee that were excellent and the service was cheery and warm. Recommended.
