The Wee Puffin in Highland

We ordered a cheeseburger and bacon burger. Very good. Very tasty and tender meat, the chips were also crispy. The salad that came with it was fresh and tasty. Highly recommended if you are in this area!

Food is really good and flavourish. Vegan options is mostly indentified and you only have to ask precisions. Vegan can only feel very welcomed! Staff was super nice and welcoming, especially with our two dogs including one a little noisy (a tendency to bark at strangers approaching)

Amazing food for me and my partner the service was excellent will definitely be back highly recommended.

Have had a sit down meal in the restaurant and a couple takeaways and the food is always so fresh and delicious. The service has always been great and a lovely atmosphere within the restaurant. Also have a really great drinks and cocktail menu which isn’t common in the area.

The Wee Puffins is a charming, family-run restaurant that impresses with its delicious food and impressive selection of whiskeys. The friendly staff not only offer excellent service, but can also provide expert recommendations on the various whiskeys. The relaxed atmosphere and warm hospitality make every visit an unforgettable experience.

We come here every time we visit Grantown. Never disappoints. Best to book though as its pretty small and busy. Good service and beer selection. The chicken and mushroom pie special was outstanding.

Been to the wee puffin a few times for takeaway food and never had an issue. Tasty food and decent sized portions. Not sure what it would be like to sit in but im sure standards would be the same!

We have visited twice now, Dec 23 and Feb 24. Each time the food has been exceptional and generous portions. Each time we’ve been they have paid special attention to our 2 springer spaniels, bringing them a water bowl and even cooking them some sausages! At our visit in February they were very busy but they made time to still spoil our dogs and give us a great experience. Cocktails are delicious and waitress’s do a good job! Will be back!

Really nice food & great service from the owner & her daughter Jodie. Supreme range of whisky 🥃 which went down nicely after a long day. Highly recommended!!

Lovely local restaurant, good food, lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. It’s a wee gem in the Highlands and well worth a visit.

Amazing place, we were in a group of 11 people she was very nice and everyone was well treated. Recommended.

We visited the Little Puffin while visiting Granton for New Year. It’s definitely one of the nicest cafes I’ve been in and we travel a lot around Scotland. The food was very tasty and the service was excellent . Can’t wait to go back

As soon as we entered we were greeted with a sense of home. The staff were extremely nice and the food was delicious (especially the brownies). Our dessert was delayed but it was made up for as it tasted amazing! The decor was fun and interesting and they had an impressive array of Whiskey! We had a brilliant evening and would visit again.

The food amazing and they allowed dogs and they so nice to people they so kind and the place do well decorated the food shocking good. ❤️ It so clean they so kind to dogs 🐶

Excelente food nice people and the dogs are treated very good

Food is excellent nice people and the dogs are treated very well

I have known the Wee Puffin since 2019 and I have to say, the quality was great and will still be great in 2023. The team deserves a 5 star rating, the kitchen would also receive 6 stars and should be given a bonus. The dishes are always hot, the food is always delicious. I can recommend the Wee Puffin with a clear conscience.

My partner chose this restaurant for his birthday meal while staying in the town. They said family friendly and we tested them with our little toddler firecracker. The staff put up with her exploring and she ate every bite of her mac and cheese so it must have been great. We had burgers which were filling and the puds were lovely. The food came quickly. It was a lovely way to spend our final night

Lovely little bistro type place on the main high street in Grantown on Spey. Nice cosy atmosphere Good food with a varied menu. The cocktails delicious! Large selection of fine whiskeys if that’s your thing. Staff young and able and friendly. Well done to them all especially the kitchen staff who must work their socks off.

The restaurant is small and feels a bit cramped. But overall we enjoyed our meal and were satisfied with both the food and service.

Had the best cocktails ever - served by the two delightful lassies (am I allowed to use that term?). The Wee Puffin is a great asset to Grantown, serving honest food at an honest price. It would be very strange indeed if anyone found any fault at this eatery,

The food was very good. The cocktails were very good. The young lassie waitressing was friendly and welcoming. However, the other lassie (I assume manager) was certainly not friendly or welcoming. She was rude to us and we watched another couple come in and they were given the same treatment for a booking mix up. Easy to see it’s a high tourist area and she didn’t care about customer satisfaction.

Wonderful meal great value! Would recommend the burgers great cocktail menu! Loved the witches brew! Nachos with Chilli also delicious Great atmosphere, friendly staff

After struggling to get a Take Away we called the Wee Puffin. We had to go see the menu and then relay it back to our companions. The order of 14 adult and one child meals were duly produced (whilst they continued to serve restaurant diners). The food was excellent quality and thoroughly enjoyed by everyone.

Went here last night in a group of 10 and was 5 mins late for booking to be then told coz we were late we couldnt have a 3 course meal, the server was aggressive in the way she spoke to us, very rude and once orders were taken she then threw the menus into a box aggressively for the nice two young ladies to tidy up after her. We were served by the other two young girls who were very nice and polite and could not have faulted the meals, very tasty and served in a decent time. We were there for over an hour and could have had plenty time to have a 3 course meal. When we paid for the meal which was around £270 there was a few pound left in the tip jar and the two young lovely girls were given a tip just for them and not for the rude lady who first served us, whom we found out was the owners daughter !!! We thought her name must have been Karen 😤 Thankyou chef lovely meal 😋😋😋

Excellent service with superb friendly staff, booked ahead and got a table. The menu was wonderful and the staff and restaurant were totally doggie friendly. Great food and enough drink on show to float a big boat. You will not be disappointed.

I had a very negative experience at this restaurant with staffs willingness to deal with my allergies and over priced food. When arriving to our booking I informed the waitress of my egg and pulse allergy, to which she seemed unsure how to deal with this. The, I assume, manager came over to the table and aggressive told us that we should’ve informed them of my allergies when booking, even though we were not asked and this shouldn’t be a discriminatory issue. I was then told I ‘should just order off the vegan menu for ease’, which I know is not easier as many vegan foods have pulses in. I informed the ‘manager’ of this factor and her aggressive, dismissive attitude continued. I was additionally asked in a hostile tone how severe my allergy was, which made me feel unwelcome, an issue and judged. I then ordered pan fried chicken, not out of choice but I was fed up with trying to find out which meals were allergen free and I felt this would likely be okay for me to eat. the pan fried chicken came and it was simply plain chicken and chips with bbq sauce for £13. I felt very unwelcome at this restaurant and discriminated against due to my food allergies, adding to my fear and anxiety of dining out but dietary needs, would not recommend.

We had a lovely family dinner. Simple but excellent food at a very reasonable price. The girls who served were lovely - they caputured our mood so well. Definitely a place to revisit next time we are there.

Nice friendly staff and good food at a reasonable price. You may need to book as it is quite small and seems to be very popular. We went when it opened and so didn't have a problem. Food was delicious.

Goede maaltijd voor een goede prijs. Super lekkere Haggis gegeten.

Non mi ha entusiasmato,ma per chi cerca un posto tipico che ricordi la Scozia questo è il posto

Cozy, family run restaurant offering breakfast, lunch and dinner. Wide ranging menu with soups, salads, burgers menu and daily specials reasonable priced. I enjoyed a Madras chicken curry and sticky toffee pudding, both very good. A full bar with specialty cocktails, wines and a selection of beers. Clearly a local favorite and very busy, so reservations for dinner are a must unless you get there very early.

Amazing service and the food and portion size was excellent, would highly recommend this brilliant restaurant but because it is such good value you really need to book to make sure you get a table

Cozybplace,great choice of malt whiskes!

We came In late after a large party, but we were seated quickly. The service was great even with it being busy. We ordered the fish and chips and the chicken strips. The food was delivered hot and fresh. Big portions, great value. It was delicious. Could not eat it all. The desserts I saw being delivered to the larger party looked great but we were too full to order our own. We will be back! Highly recommend. It's small and very busy so make a reservation!

Great beer menu. Good variety of Scottish food on the menu. Nice atmosphere. Good efficient service.

Great beer menu with lots of local beers. Good variety of Scottish food on the menu. Nice atmosphere. Good efficient service.

Booked a table last minute on a Saturday night for a family trip in Grantown. Was served promptly, staff were lovely, and food was excellent. Reasonably priced too. Would certainly return when next in Grantown.

We were able to book a table quite last minute and we were really impressed with our visit. It's a small, cosy venue with a great selection of cocktails, beers and whiskey and the menu catered very well for both adults and children. The staff were attentive and the prices really reasonable - we will definitely be returning.

A local restaurant that always seems to be packed, so indicative of the quality of food. We had pre booked as first night we couldn't get a table. Had drinks (lots of local specialities) ,the drinks menu is very good value; haggis, tatties & neeps and I had a special dish of Puffin Balmoral Chicken (chicken breast on a bed of haggis served with veg and rice). Only criticism of the Wee Puffin is that we had to wait quite a while to place our food order probably about 25 mins (it was very busy with other diners coming and going). The Wee Puffin offers a take-away service as well. Food was hot, delicious and good portions. As the evening wore on and tables left, other couples and groups were coming in and able to get seats so my advice would to be go later on if you haven't got a booking. Highly recommend.

We absolutely loved this quaint restaurant! Our meals were scrumptious! The haggis, neeps and tatties were so delicious! The kindness of the servers made our evening truly memorable!

Très bonne cuisine familiale. Accueil sympathique et service efficace. Excellent rapport qualité prix Il est conseillé de réserver car le...

Service excellent but the food is not. Mostly defrosted industrial food.

Food was amazing, puffin balls, curry, lasagne and steak pie were delicious. Very large whiskey selection, and lots of delicious meals on the menu. Waitresses were very friendly. Also a plus, very dog friendly, even offered a water bowl. Will definitely come again. 👍

Book in advance! This place is a marvelous wee gem. There were a dozen or more walk-ins turned away while we were eating. Everything about the place is spot on. It's small and cosy , with an eclectic mix of artwork and decorations. The young...

Nice atmosphere, friendly staff. Five stars.

Poor experience, owner chef served up a chicken dish they couldn't accept wasn't cooked right. They could only offer insults, threats and rejection, absolutely no acceptance of our concerns. We were told, we have been serving this dish for the last nine years without complaint....

Very nice restaurent ! Food is really good and the staff is very nice :)

Superb food, lovely staff would highly recommend to everyone

best customer service, owned by a lovely lady who goes out of her way to provide the best service and she’s always so kind. lovely staff, best food, 10/10 all round, very very excited to go back❤️ I’ve read through the reviews from a day...

Really tasty food, had some lovely Haggis balls, then tasty sausage with the most amazing brownie to finish. Not my first time eating there and won't be my last.

Terrible experience with the male chef after complaining about the goujons being tough and tasteless.He said it must be the tablets I am taking! He did not accept criticism and had totally unacceptable behaviour. He has no customer handling skills! I won't be back!! I don't recommend this restaurant! The chefs attitude is unacceptable! I did not have to pay for my meal in the end!

Just had a terrible experience from the male chef of The Wee Puffin in Grantown I ordered battered chicken goujions but unfortunately they were under cooked and was so tough I couldn't cut it or chew it. It was also tasteless. I complained to the...

I visited Sunday afternoon for coffee and a snack on my way back through Grantown. Between 4 and ten past I stood waiting for either seating or service as the board informed me to do. The two young ladies working were studious in ignoring me...

This place is just brilliant. It is very small so reservation is necessary. The menu is concentrated on burgers but there is more. All dishes are excellent in taste and quantity. The burgers are very tasty and the chips are a dream. Very large drinks...

The food was lovely and served in a timely manner. The staff were equally as lovely and accommodating as could be. A small and intimate place - such a shame they had to turn so many people away because they were fully booked but totally...

A popular eating place but only open between 5 and 9pm. Therefore, it is best to book in advance. Food is very good and the variety of drinks available is excellent.

Lovely food and good selection of cocktails. Glad we had booked as it was very busy and we saw lots being turned away.

Awesome…. A cracking good feed and loads of it. Kids menu had plenty of choice too. The staff were friendly and helpful. Chips were thick cut and crispy, yum, yum. Definitely go back

We had a nice meal at Wee Puffin during our stay in late June. The menu provides lots of options and all the dishes are freshly prepared. We went for the Homemade Chicken Curry and Veggie haggis with neeps and tatties, which were both delicious. Good service, reasonable prices and excellent drinks menu, which including some interesting local beers / ales.

Food was great. Fried haggis. Bacon cheeseburger and bbq burger. Split the hot chocolate fudge cake w/ice cream for dessert. Waitress and bartender need to get on same page. Wife ordered an espresso martini but was given an old fashioned. Waitress kept insisting it was an espresso martini. Bartender (owner??) finally came over and apologized and replaced it the correct drink.

Excellent home cooking and lovely atmosphere....4 year old grandson well catered for and us 3 adults thoroughly enjoyed fab lasagne, amazing sausage and mash and haggis, needs and tatties! Nice choice of desserts too !Well done Wee Puffin....will be back!🥰🥰🥰

Great food, let down by extremely slow service. We had a family dinner here recently when we were staying near Grantown, and the menu is fantastic. Both food and drinks, plenty of choice and its all cooked fresh which makes a huge difference. However this place really needs someone with a bit of experience to take charge and actually run the place. It was busy but we waited over an hour for our food from ordering. A real shame, we'd go back, but probably when its a bit quieter as it seemed a bit disorganised.

We were happy to be there. We were so lucky to have a table since we didn't make any reservations. It was always full. Glad that no puffins were hurt when they prepared the menu. The food was delicious. We had lasagna and smoked haddock fish cake - quality!

Kleines aber Feines Restaurant mit excelentem Essen und einer riesigen Auswahl Whiskys und einer prima Auswahl lokaler Biere. Sehr zu empfehlen!

To be fair, eight of us from a whisky tour group showed up and the severs were nice enough to seat us all together. The service and drinks were good but the food was just okay. Most of the food came out cold or barely...

I had dinner here after a long day walking on the Speyside Way. It's a cozy little place and can get busy, so best to make a reservation. The service was friendly and the meal was delicious.

This is a great little restaurant. The food was really lovely and the service was incredibly friendly. The only (very) minor downside for me was that wine by the glass was from single serve bottles which I aways find hit and miss. However the rest...

Loverly place food ok good service and realy good place to meet

Lovely staff, very friendly and accommodating. It's really a cosy little place, with a nice and tasty selection on the menu. Difficult to go wrong with wrong here!

What a lovely little restaurant... The staff is so very friendly and helpful. Kudos to the team and the kitchen. Burger and chips were tasteful and not overly fatty. I would certainly recommend those. The curry was a bit less to our tasting but that is of course very subjective. So just note that nothing was wrong with it and maybe it is exactly how you like it. The steak & ale pie looked amazing on the tables next to us ;-). You will certainly find something to your liking! And it has a nice buzzing atmosphere. 100% recommend. Suggestion: maybe fresh or higher quality sauces like fresh mayo or tartar sauce would elevate the experience even further. Sauces from little bags are really not very nice.

Located in the high street, nice looking, puffin decorated, eatery. Had the Balmoral chicken which was very tasty, nice flavours, loved it. Family friendly place, not expensive.

Great wee place at reasonable price and good food.

Great food, more than adequate portions and great service

Chris vom Ravenscourt House, unserer ausgezeichneten Unterkunft, gab uns den Tipp und wir haben es keine Sekunde bereut. Ob es...

Standard British food which was well cooked. Service is efficient if not particularly engaging. There is a good selection of beers and other drinks. Food is fairly priced. The restaurant was cold on the night we visited.

Had a fabulous meal at this restaurant, food was great and the staff were wonderful. Thanks so much!

Food was fantastic, Piri Piri Chicken was hot and tasty. Huge selection of cocktails and spirits all made to a high standard. Book before you come as reservations fill quite quickly.

Lovely food and excellent service. We were made to feel as nothing was too much bother even though it was busy. Great messages on inclusivity in the restaurant.

Good food with family and family friends, the service was absolutely impeccable. Nice surprise in a diverse and well curated selection of whiskies. Among others, a full range of Spey malts, some choice independant distilleries represented and a few properly special options. Nice place!

Excellent, friendly diner with interesting menu. Service is very efficient, food piping hot & well presented. Enjoyed it so much stayed for a second bottle of wine & even tried the cocktail menu. Thank you for a great evening

A brilliant wee restaurant with fantastic fresh food.

Popped in for a quick bite to eat on a work trip, food was good. I wasn't drinking but they had a huge range of Whiskys.

Nettes kleines Restaurant mit wirklich gutem Essen. Der Burger war riesig und lecker. Dazu gute Auswahl an Bier und Whisky. Ambiente ist auch angenehm. War ein schöner Abend.

Great small restaurant with good food and friendly and efficient wait staff. I went all out for haggis starting with excellent haggis balls followed by the Puffin Burger which is topped with haggis. The patties, though too well cooked for my liking were pretty tasty. Starters and mains were served with fresh salad which is nice as a good salad is hard to find in Scotland

Very pleased to have found the Puffin. I had the wee Puffin burger, superb. My wife had the fish n chips. Both delighted. Good food cooked to order, great service and a nice atmosphere.

Came across this by chance. Cracking wee place with fab host. Reasonably priced with decent sized portions. So dog friendly. Hadn't even sat down anfd a bowl of water was brought over for my dog. So many places put up with dogs but they genuinely...

Great place, serving delicious freshly cooked food with very generous portions. Excellent selection of drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Very popular and can fill quickly so best to book. You won't be disappointed.

Absolutely brilliant place to eat Steak pie was amazing visited twice had pie both times definitely recommend .10 in the group all 10 meals both times were excellent and Jodie was an absolute gem 💎

The Wee Puffin is a lovely, cosy restuarant in the centre of Grantown. If you want good quality, homecooked food served without any pretension, then I wouldn't hesitate to recommend. They are also dog friendly which is a big bonus for me personally. The haggis and cheese loaded potato skins in particular were delicious, and the mocktails are great value for money and very tasty too.

What a fabulous evening. Service was excellent, food really good and amazing value, huge cocktail list without the huge prices, wide range of drinks satisfying everyone’s tastes and needs. Good was fresh and hot with a good mix for all. Unbelievably good value for money....

Great food at a great price, perfect after a long day in the mountains. I can thoroughly recommend the "Hungry Puffin" burger, although it was an exceedingly large portion.

Very tasty and a great host. Good food and great service. Highly recommended! Next time, we'll certainly eat here.

As a family of six we were looking for somewhere to eat in Grantown on Spey and came across this packed little restaurant! The staff were great and as people were already leaving, they soon prepared a table for us. The food was fine though...

What an amazing wee restaurant! High quality food & service. Great range of drinks & the deserts were lovely too! Good value for money.

Lovely food and friendly atmosphere

Loved this place, so cosy, and lovely staff

Small, local and friendly. Good honest food. Generous servings and reasonably priced.

We loved this little place (and it is quite small so advance booking is important). While the food menu is not expansive, the whisky and gin lists are impressive! Both our meals were excellent and we really enjoyed the ambiance!
