Located in the upstairs of a renovated 18th-Century mill, and sharing its occupancy with an award-winning tourist centre and tiny cinema, this 69-cover restaurant enjoys a steady stream of satisfied customers all year round.

Claire Drysdale and Alanna Rogerson have been running Hullabaloo for over 12 years. They work together in the kitchen, inventing innovative and eclectic seasonal menus from fresh, locally sourced produce. All the dishes are made in-house with freshness and quality of the utmost importance. The pair are also conscious of their carbon footprint, sourcing ingredients that are as local and organic as possible – and you can certainly taste the difference. There’s an unpretentious yet sumptuous quality to the dishes on the excellent and varied menu which, astonishingly, don’t carry hefty price tags. Diners are treated to a colourful selection of choices influenced by Mexico, Europe and the Med, along with the occasional hint of Far Eastern flavour, designed to complement the premium Scottish produce at the heart of each dish.

The restaurant itself has a convivial, intimate atmosphere without feeling stuffy and exclusive. During lunchtime it has a café feel, bustling with life and chatter. Hullabaloo is a favourite venue for locals and tourists who come for its wide selection of home-baked breads, packed with delicious ingredients, or a bowl of their famous soup of the day. In the evening, Hullabaloo transforms into a candlelit bistro, offering some of the finest meals in town.
