We had a great supper from Harbour Fry whilst up on holiday in Orkney. As someone who needs gluten free, I was extremely grateful to see a gluten free menu and even more glad it had vegetarian options as well. I had the onion rings, chips and cheese pattie and they were all fab. My friends had the regular menu and all enjoyed their food too. The staff were friendly and the photos around the restaurant were fun to see. Highly recommended.

We had pizza, gluten free pasta and a kids meal and everyone scoffed the lot. It was awesome food, really quick service from super friendly waiter and the restaurant is just a lovely atmosphere. Geared up for kids with colouring and cute ice cream desert. Would definitely recommend for anyone that likes Italian food.

Will do gluten free if you ask. There is a limited choice obviously but they are conscientious and will check ingredients before advising. Just make sure it's obvious that you cannot have any gluten at all if you are coeliac rather than it being an intolerance. It wasn't any trouble all the questions I asked them about it.
