Having visited Stoer Lighthouse, we followed the sign for the Jammery, and a very worthwhile visit it was. Lovely coffee and cake, and very impressed with the “red stone” to signify the outdoor table hadn’t been cleaned. So good, we went back the next day after walking to the Old Man of Stoer.

A lovely place and I wish I had time to stay longer. The friendliness, passion and welcome of the staff was a real treat and I will certainly be back to sample the delights of the cafe. We were provided samples of the amazing variety of dumplings which were amazing along with the creative presentation for special occasions.Lovely to see creativity combined with an environmental focus and the ability to view your food being prepared through the glass fronted kitchen. Well done and I will plan a stop over next time I am Abernethy. Do visit if you get a chance.

Be prepared to spend a couple of hours in this fascinating museum with its wealth of memorabilia and full sized boats of many types. There's artefacts, photos and things to interest all ages and it's a unique insight into a vanishing world. Afterwards, sample one of the many brilliant fish and chip shops along the sea front and you'll newly appreciate the bravery of the fishing crews that caught your meal.

Came across this place by accident almost. We were cycling to the Italian Chapel and were trying to figure out how far down we could continue cycling and still find somewhere to stop for a cuppa tea to warm up, and cake to get the energy levels back up. I came across this place during my research and found it was a free open day so of course we went and were pleasantly surprised. Not only was the cafe nice, but the fossil/hertitage element was very interesting and well done. Well worth the visit! Even better, we found a garden tucked around the back and we simply sat for 30 mins out of the wind and basking in the sunshine like a pair of lizards! :)
