Went for lunch on Sunday (21st) and it was very busy. (always a good sign) Staff advised about 20 mins for a table and we were happy to wait. 20 mins later we were seated. The staff were friendly and efficient. The food was excellent and reasonably priced. The menu is full of great looking food we want to try so will definitely be back and will not hesitate to recommend to others.
My wife was recommended the Mountain Cafe by some fellow passenger on the train up from London. We went on the first morning of our holiday and then went every morning after that. The breakfasts are superb and I can only imagine the rest of the menu is just as good. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
Super Delicious all-day breakfast and the most moist and - 'if i can say' creamy black pudding the best i have ever eaten, well balanced flavours and nice cuppa tea. Love the friendly staff and the beautiful views from the cafe. A pleasure to visit on our way back to Bristol today. Thanks for having us! :)
Amazing food, great coffee milkshake. We love this place & highly recommend it. The buzzer system works really well & the time passes quicker than when we used to wait on the stairs.
Had the most amazing breakfast yesterday! Normal fayre, sausages, eggs, hash browns, black pudding, beans , bacon, mushrooms and coffee. What sets it apart is that every single element was amazing, even the coffee was fab! Toast was tasty , kiwi cafe culture at its best 😊
My hands down, absolute favourite place to come in Aviemore. Breakfast is immense and worth the queue on the stairs.
Fantastic coffee and cakes - what to choose is the most difficult, delightful decision to make!

We always come here for breakfast - they've introduced a buzzer system which is good because it can be really busy and all cooked fresh so it's not a quick visit. However they also do drinks and cakes to take away for those in a rush. Always worth a visit!!
Safe are amazing, as is the food. We were in during a super busy Saturday morning and the safe never once looked stressed and stayed so polite and very helpful, this alone deserves 5 stars but the food is also incredible and there's some really tasty vegan options too :)
Such a lovely spot with delicious food and drink would highly recommend x
Great wee place, had to wait around 20 mins for a table, given a buzzer so could have a wander. Definitely worth the wait though, 5* + for the all day breakfast! Best breakfast we've ever had, set us up for our journey home. Also great choice for allergy sufferers, well coded and clear on the menu. Will definitely be back anytime we are in Avimore!
I love this place. I only visit Aviemore once a year , and yesterday I was very tempted to sit there all day enjoying the delicious food and the glorious view. The buzzer system worked well, and the staff were lovely despite the constant workload. Roll on next year!
Best cafe ever.
Glad they've now got pagers so we didn't have to queue on the stairs.
Food definitely worth the wait.

A great place! Visited twice during my 4-days stay at Aviemore.
All the dishes we had were great and very tasty!
- Margherita pizza
- Lentil soup (soup of the day) + focaccia bread
- Chips
- Mixed salad
- We did not expect much for the pizza but it was very tasty.
- The lentil soup was also very tasty and it was the soup of the day. Focaccia bread came with it and it was really good.
- The staff members were very friendly.
- Nice atmosphere with great views around on the first floor.
- There are quite a few parking spaces just outside. If full, there is a public car park (Aviemore car park) right on the opposite side. You can also park at Aviemore Retail Park where there are Aldi, Costa and so on.
- You can order through the QR code. (I could not find it in the first place so had to order it at the till but the QR code is attached to a spoon at the table.)
- There is no wifi available. Perhaps they might want to consider having a public wifi for ordering through the QR code as 4G/5G did not seem to work so well.
Good menu, pizza was fantastic. Salt & chilli chips are definitely more chilli than salt, you’ve been warned 🥵 service was excellent. It’s a busy place, I was lucky to get a table so I’d recommend booking in advance.
I was pleasantly surprised by this place. We tried multiple other restaurants in Aviemore but there appeared to be a shortage of chefs while we were there. We decided to go for pizza here which used to be a nice breakfast cafe. There were quite a few options and the pizzas were baked in a big stone oven. We took the dog in with us and got a good table on the balcony. There were plenty of staff which were all very pleasant. Price wasn't too bad either.
We visited here twice during our trip to the Highlands and each time the food was absolutely perfect. The pizzas are absolutely delicious and authentic. Beautiful crust, undercarriage and flavours. I'd highly recommend the Mediterranean Medley pizza, a perfect blend of sweet and sour from the balsamic vinegar and sunblush tomatoes.
Ambience and service were lovely and the staff were very attentive not to mention the stunning views of the Cairngorm mountains.
Thank you so much. We'll be back when we're next in the Highlands!
Best Wood fired Pizza I've had. Go here every time we come to Aviemore.
Came here for dinner and breakfast the next day, both were delicious - pizza was high quality and came out so fast, and the pancakes were as good as they come. Friendly service and really nice vibe inside. Would highly recommend :)
Absolutely loved the food there! I got the chorizo breakfast! It was delicious! Service was 10/10 ! Staff was super friendly and kind! We will definitely be coming here again!
Side note if you have never been here, you have to go inside the store, and there will be stairs that lead up to the restaurant 😁
Totally automated ordering coupled with friendly and efficient staff. Mediterranean pizza was wonderful
Great place for pizza. It's very busy, but the staff do their best to accommodate you, and even phoned us to let us know when a table was available - saved us standing in a queue. The pizzas are delicious. The toppings are quite classical - the only thing which would make it better would be more adventurous toppings - perhaps showcasing local ingredients. Will definitely be back.
THE best pizza I’ve ever had.
I can’t explain how good these pizzas are.
Simply amazing. Best ever.
Staff were brilliant and made us a dip for our crusts. They should add that to their menu, actually.
Reasonably priced too.
Amazing food.
One of the best pizza places we’ve been to. The cheesy garlic bread is delicious and a steal at £5 (it’s the same size as a pizza). Would definitely recommend and be back again.
An outstanding hidden gem above an outdoors shop. Fantastic wood fired pizzas in a laid back, no frills environment. Pick up a nice beer, some quality pizza and relax with friends after a long hike. I can also thoroughly recommend the Tiramisu which tasted homemade and high quality to finish off your meal. 100% must stop if passing through and your belly is rumbling.
We came in for lunch and had one pizza with chicken, pesto and spinach and one with a double cream base and mushrooms with truffle flavour. The base was excellent and the flavours were really nice. The only reason I'm giving 4 instead of 5 stars is because the cream base pizza was a little runny. Can highly recommend!
This may sound weird, but order their whisky. They have an exclusively bottled Tomatin just for the store and it's the best. Okay maybe after a pizza, which is very delicious, but the whisky... try it
Brilliant pizzas, well worth the wait. Dropped in without booking, they phoned us within 45 minutes to say our table was ready. Great service. Highly recommended.
The pizza was delicious. Lots of varieties, including a Scot (haggis and black pudding). But the restaurant was too busy to sit in, the only way in and out was a narrow staircase. Had to order online, didn't appear to be phone option. And it took longer than the online estimation
Amazing vegan pizza! Big place with lots of seating, and good service. Loved the compostable take away coffee cup lids
Tried salad, pizzas and fries and everythy was 10/10
We tried the special pizza with honey and truffle and it was truly remarkable!
Loved the atmosphere and the friendly staff.
I wish they had reservations so we won’t have to wait, however, I would still wait again and again for the pizza😋
