It has been eight years since I helped create the Kailyard, and in that time the food we produce has become tastier and more personal. I’m lucky to have a great team of chefs, under the watchful eye of Executive Head Chef, Steven Campbell.

Together we have developed dishes that utilise the very best of Scottish produce and are cooked in a way that makes the most of these wonderful raw materials. Some tried and tested Nick Nairn classics have been highlighted with the Nick Nairn signature.

I hope you enjoy your meal with us.
