Applecross Walled Garden

Amazing day out at Applecross Walled Garden. The garden itself although small is packed to the brim with fruit and veg and lots of interesting shrubs and flowers. Beautifully kept paths and seating areas. We had lunch at the restaurant which was absolutely delicious, everything tasted so fresh, its literally from garden to plate. There are small dishes or main meals on the special board, also a lovely selection of cocktails, wine and beers. Though do save some space for dessert, really delicious. After lunch we did a large circuit walk around the estate behind the gardens, where you will find good paths and clear signposts. Lots of deer all around the area too. A fantastic day out, parking and entry to gardens are free but highly recommend you stop to eat here too. Staff were very friendly and attentive also.

Unbelievably good! Location perfect, atmosphere cosy, lovely grounds and the food was unreal! We had 8 of the small plates and 2 deserts and it was amazing, we did the NC500 and this was by far the nicest food place we attended.

What a lucky find! I do hope you take the time to stop and eat or even just freely browse the garden. The food and people are lovely! It might help visitors to know: nothing outside really tells you if it’s open, and the closed gate often catches people stood before it looking for a sign. Similarly, inside it’s not clear how the whole ordering process works. So here it is: it’s a tapas menu, with items costing around £6 to £8 each and a suggestion you order 3-4 plates each. For us, 3 was too much food! You’ll want to head to the counter first and specify if you’re visiting for drinks or a meal, and you’ll be directed towards a table and given a menu if applicable. Come back to the counter to give your order, along with your table number. You won’t need to pay till you’re ready to leave. At that point just return to the counter and let them know you’re ready to pay.

Absolutely delicious dinner. We went a bit mad and had; Chicken Tikka Skewers, Lamb, Pork Belly (our favourite), and the Meatballs, as well as the Patatas Bravas and Mixed Roast Veg sides. The homemade bread was gorgeous. Finished with Eton Mess and Chocolate Mousse. Can’t recommend enough!

This place is magical! I cannot say enough good things about it. From the friendly staff to the beautiful ambiance to the delicious food...this was the BEST lunch stop we could have hoped for. Their tapas menu has such a variety of items and I enjoyed everything we ordered. Here is what we ordered starting with my most favorite items: slow cooked pork belly, lamb skewers, crispy fried gnocchi (neber had anything like this and they were so yummy!), chicken tikka skewers, antipasti (the blue cheese was perfection), vegetable gyoza, and crisps. It was all so good! It did get quite busy so I was glad we had called ahead to make a reservation. Don't miss this place!

Scallop and squid was delicious. We had 3 sharing plates and 2 sides for two, and a cheesecake to celebrate my birthday. Thanks for the lovely and warm service!

Beautiful Resturant and garden. I would recommend making a reservation the place get packed really quick. If it was not for the locals I wouldn't have found this space and was lucky to get a table. The staff is a very friendly bunch, and the service was really quick. After dining its good to have walk in the garden.

Such a Dreamy place for a home cooking styled meal! We were delighted to eat here 2 out of the 3 nights we stayed in the area. The staff were so lovely and warm, the food was delicious, and the ambience was so cute and romantic. Totally recommend after a day of hiking, driving and or just because.

Definitely book a reservation and also give yourself plenty of time to get there if you are not through the Applecross Pass yet!

Beautiful setting, tucked away en route to Applecross Path. A friendly bunch. Welcomed like locals. Amazing home cooked food from the garden. Organic. Rich in flavour. A gift shop and garden centre (small) on site. And great coffee too. Perfect for lunch or dinner or a quick coffee before you carry on your travels.

What a gem of a place! We had a delicious feast made up of many of the small plates on offer, hard to choose but my favourites were the chicken skewers and the mac & cheese 🤤 The staff were so welcoming and friendly, The garden itself is beautiful and worth a wander around (though it was hard to move after so much yummy food!) We were lucky enough to have lovely weather so sat outside to enjoy our meal. Definitely worth a visit when in Applecross, be sure to reserve a table in advance as they book up quickly!

Literally in a walled garden on the grounds of an estate. The food was fresh and delicious, and the service was excellent. Reservations are recommended.

Amazing food in an even more amazing place, big garden beautifully maintained. We tried the fish and chips with the salmon linguine that were really good. If you want to try some gin try the raasay isle one with a splash of tonic.
If i return to applecross i'll go back there

This place was a real find. They do lovely tapas and we ordered far too may. But they boxed the excess up for us to take away.
Staff were lovely and the surrounding gardens are wonderful.
They encourage you to check availability through Facebook but we rang them and got a table for the same evening.

Amazing restaurant! A hidden gem. This place really was surprising to me and my friends. A closed gate is what you will encounter first. You'll have to open it and go deeper through the gardens to find out there's a cute cottage in there! Lovely cozy warm place.
The food was excellent! We ordered the salmon pasta, grilled salmon and vegetarian sandwich. Whatever you choose, it would be amazing and beautifully presented! For desserts we ordered the toffee pudding with ice cream. It was crazy delicious!
The staff were super friendly, the service was quick, everything was lovely! I wish to come back here again. Of I didn't live so far, I'd go here every week!

Restaurant is reachable via the scenic and dramatic Applecross road. The location and the walled garden concept is superb. The service of the staff was wonderful. The items we had ordered were well prepared, presented and tasted excellent. Very highly recommended.

Lovely food served in a beautiful location, book a table to be sure you get in.

Cracking, little place to eat tucked away in an actual functioning walled garden. Staff were great, Niamh was a gem and the food was awesome!

Beautiful place, a little fraught, with staff doing their best to fulfill customer needs, but great.
Enjoyed thoroughly and would suggest it for anyone in Applecross.

Several vegan and vegeterian options.
Lovely place. Great service.

What a wonderful place, idyllic tranquil place. The food was amazing. If the weather is good, i'd advice you sit outside. It is a dog (on lead) and children friendly pub. parking is very convenient with many bnbs around. The burger was insanely good. Highly recommended
