Inspector comments
"Incredible Scottish seafood in unique location."
Overview
Loch Bay Restaurant is a cosy, white-painted restaurant situated in the historic 18th-century model fishing village of Stein, on the spectacular Waternish Peninsula. This tiny and remote six-table restaurant is surrounded by dramatic scenery. The seasonal menu is served at two seating times, and you pay when you book. Michael Smith’s modern Scottish cooking has been inspired by Skye’s exceptional natural harvest, and the menu changes daily, entirely dependent on what’s been landed that day.
