1887 Restaurant offers a fine dining experience that captures the wild beauty and rich flavours of the Scottish Highlands. Set within the historic Torridon estate and named after the year the building was constructed, the restaurant blends old-world charm with contemporary elegance. With sweeping views of the surrounding mountains and loch, it provides a truly unforgettable backdrop for a special meal.
At the helm is Chef Paul Green, whose creative yet grounded cooking has earned the restaurant a prestigious 3 AA Rosette award. His philosophy is rooted in a true field-to-fork approach. Much of the produce used in the kitchen is grown on the estate’s own farm and two-acre Victorian walled garden. From vegetables and herbs to beef and game, the menu is a direct expression of the land that surrounds it.
The tasting menu changes daily and is designed to reflect the seasons and the rhythm of the Highlands. Dishes might include hand-dived scallops, estate-reared venison, or fish from nearby waters, all presented with refined technique and a clear sense of place. Every plate is thoughtfully composed, drawing out the best from the region’s rich natural larder.
The dining room is stylish yet understated, with warm pine panelling, soft lighting and panoramic views. A glass-fronted conservatory adds a touch of romance, while the polished but friendly service ensures guests feel relaxed and cared for throughout.
The wine and drinks list is equally impressive, featuring both classic and lesser-known bottles selected to complement the menu’s evolving flavours. The team is always happy to recommend pairings, whether you're enjoying a full tasting menu or a more focused à la carte experience.
1887 Restaurant is ideal for a special occasion or a memorable stop on a Highland getaway. Whether you’re staying at the hotel or visiting the region, it offers a unique opportunity to experience Highland hospitality at its finest – where every element, from the produce to the service, is rooted in care, creativity and a deep connection to the land.
