Like everything else at the Moor of Rannoch, dinner is not a rushed affair. Since we only set each table once our guests can relax and dine at their own pace.
The menu changes every single day with a real focus on seasonal Scottish produce which is sourced from a number of local suppliers. Our bar showcases some of the best Scottish spirits, beers and soft drinks including a cocktail list and an extensive wine cellar.
Once dinner is over, retire to the lounge for tea or coffee with a selection of over 120 of Scotland’s finest malt whisky’s. Depart on Rannoch’s “Dial a Bus” service or for those lucky guests it is just a short climb up the stairs to one of our rooms.

Dietary Requirements
If we are not notified of any dietary requirements for your table, we may not be able to cater for you on the evening.
Our small restaurant only has Steph and one other person in the kitchen. Creating a new 7 course menu each day for 20 guests means that between them they are preparing and plating up to 140 dishes each evening.
While we try to accommodate as many dietary requirements as possible, we are unable to cater for guests who require a strict Dairy / Lactose free or Vegan diet. As our menus do contain dairy throughout and it is a fundamental part of our cooking.
With notice we can cater for most dietary requirements. If you wish to discuss any dietary requirements before making a booking, please feel free to email us and we can advise accordingly.
Children
We welcome children of all ages in our restaurant. Please note that we do not offer a separate children’s menu. Please take a moment to review our children’s policy. High chairs are available on request.
Dogs
The Moor of Rannoch is a very dog friendly environment and your dog is welcome to join you in the restaurant.

Wonderful On Every Level July 2019
From the moment we left the Dialabus taxi from Kinloch Rannoch to 10pm when we left we were spoilt. Sumptuous and no I don’t use the term loosely food, great wine, whiskies and gin. Looked after immaculately by Steph, Scott and the rest of the team. In those immortal words, we’ll be back!
TripadvisorIdeal for a memorable evening October 2019
This place is way off the beaten track - we used the brilliant local pre-arranged taxi service so we could both drink with our meal. The experience is what it's all about, this is the first dining experience I have enjoyed in the company of wild red deer outside the restaurant window and it is probably the most ruggedly impressive landscape through which I have been driven to reach the restaurant.
TripadvisorWorth the journey May 2019
We have been visiting this restaurant every year when we are up in Scotland pretty much since Scott and Steph took it over and it just gets better and better every year. This year we had the best meal we have had all year with gorgeous fresh ingredients from local suppliers and delicate flavours. Steph and her team excel in the kitchen and Scott is brilliant at front of house. The addition of the kitchen garden is a masterpiece.
TripadvisorAmazing June 2019
This is an exceptional place to stay. Scott and Steph are brilliant hosts. So knowledgable about their produce and surroundings. Steph produces the most amazing food I can’t even describe how good it is. I was a bit sceptical about no Wi-fi and no tv but the surroundings are like your own personal Springwatch episode.
