Creelers

Top choice in Skye


Broadford has several places to eat but one really stands out: Creelers is a small, bustling restaurant (refurbished in 2018) that serves some of the best seafood on Skye. The house speciality is traditional Marseille bouillabaisse (a rich, spicy seafood stew). Best to book ahead.
