From being a bait shed on Fort William's town pier, to the characteristic red roofs that now bear the hallmark of place well-known for their fantastic seafood with a touch of class, Crannog Seafood Restaurant has come a long way since it's inception in 1989.

The kitchen team is passionate about bringing the fresh taste of the sea, so you'll find a constantly changing menu that uses the best local catch of the day. A bowl of mussels the classic way, steamed with onion, white wine, and garlic and finished with cream and you're off to a good start. Plump local scallops with belly of pork and baked white fish quickly follow, accompanied by lemon courgettes and rocket pesto. If there's more stomach room left, try the cranachan pannacotta where Scottish raspberries, oatmeal, Drambuie and honey pannacotta arrive with a Crannog shortbread biscuit.

With unrivalled views of Loch Linnhe's calm waters coupled with traditional Highland hospitality, you have a recipe for a thoroughly enjoyable meal.
