The must be one of the quirltest of quirky cafes that I’ve ever visited. But it was fun, if you like being thrown together with other travellers at one large table. Authentic thin porcelain china was used. The one person serving and cooking was clearly overwhelmed with the situation so I’d recommend avoiding cooked food and eating cake. Nevertheless, the seafood chowder tasted good.

The most unusual cafe i have ever been in the views are spectacular and the chowder was the best I've tasted the scones with cream and fresh strawberries were delicious the owner Fiona makes everything from scratch using fresh and local produce well worth the drive

Excellent service and food. Owner is very lovely and would highly recommend. There's also an honesty policy for payment as WiFi coverage is limited, or cash

We didn’t know what to expect but once we push the door it was outstanding! Great host and amazing soup. Great moment shared with other guests around the table, view on the beach is absolutely stunning

A cute place with lots of local nick nacks and artwork. There is a dinning section with a long dinning table and mixture of chairs. There is also 2 armchairs at the window. The food was delicious, made fresh by the owner herself. Good atmosphere and very friendly.

Fantastic little place ran by Fiona. The food was outstanding. The restaurant is run by Fiona herself and everything is made from fresh. Lovely to sit & talk to the people that are visiting whilst waiting on your food. Got talking to some locals and people from Europe - very interesting. Would definitely recommend.

You have to just 'keep on driving' that little bit further to eventually find this little community owned hidden gem. The lady running the cafe is a genuine foodie, and seems to takes great pride in all her culinary offerings. I only dropped in for coffee and couple of cakes, and everything was excellent. I chatted afterwards to other diners, who were v happy with their rich creamy fish soups. Wish now that i had that too!

This was an unexpected wonderful find. (Open on Sundays). The food is cooked for you individually and is lovely. The seafood chowder was really good and the atmosphere very friendly. It is quirky and well worth seeking out.

Fabulous lunch and evening meals with a brilliant host. The fish pie is amazing as was the mushroom soup and sticky toffee pudding. Aird Uig is a pretty cool place to visit!

Thankyou Fiona for having me. Everything was delightful and the banana loaf was amazing. Loved chatting to Fiona and others local to the area at the big communal table.

Fiona made me strawberry salad which I had never had before. A hidden gem of a cafe, or more like being invited to someones home.

Great little place where all the food is made right there and then for you, after you decide off a list of ideas. Whilst it is being cooked, the owner chats away and asks you about where you have been and you plans etc. Would recommend to others and there was proper coffee!!

Rustic, homely welcoming and great food. Not many places are open on a Sunday on the island, but fortunately The Edge Cafe was, making for a good Sunday outing. We were greeted by the owner, who informed us that food on the menu was an idea of what she could offer, but she could cooked from scratch depending on what we wanted and the ingredients she had. In this case we wanted soup and she offered either a fish chowder or a mushroom soup, which we went for mushroom. It really felt like I had just stepped into the family kitchen and mum was just putting lunch on. The seating area consisted of a large communal dining table surrounded with chairs and two cozy arm chairs, which again, gave the feeling of having lunch in a family home. It was lovely and rustic and on a breezy day, with the view of the waves crashing against the cliff, it was just wonderful. As well as toilet amenities, there are an additional two other rooms with crafts in to purchase from local art and craft islanders. Just be mindful cash is preferred here! After having a look around, we were called through for our soup. It was the best mushroom soup me and my partner had eaten. It was warm, chunky and creamy, with lovely bread on the side. Another couple had joined at this point, and along with the owner, we had a lovely chat all together. If you like rustic, communal and down to earth goodness, this is the place to visit.

Came across this wee cafe and craft shop by accident. What a find! Fab cake, lovely personal service and I wanted to buy everything in the craft shop/gallery.

A cafe like no other - extraordinary views, food made to order, and friendly staff with a knowledge of local history. A unique experience all round.

A very unique place to be, friendly and local atmosphere. Fiona is a wonderful host, we have enjoyed a lovely lunch here. Food is made to order and prepared on the spot (we had fish chowder and cakes, both delicious), but you can visit the little gallery/shop while waiting or just chat with the others, since there is only one long table. I highly recommend!

We sat down and had a chat with the proprietor about our shared heritage. She made us a very nice chowder and tea.
