Caithness

Straight off the Scrabster boats.

Seafood in Caithness comes from some of the coldest, clearest water around Britain. On the harbour at Scrabster, where the boats come in, a restaurant in an old ice house cooks the day's catch. Between Thurso and Dunnet, a small village chip shop fries a fine fish supper. Eat them by the sea if the weather allows, and watch for seals in the harbour.

The Galley, Scrabster.

Seafood takes centre-stage at this award-winning Scrabster restaurant, with the menu featuring seared scallops, locally spear-caught sea bass, and even Caithness seaweed butter new potatoes. The harbour is literally right outside the door, and there’s also a takeaway seafood bar.
