"Your restaurant came highly recommended and the food and wine was absolutely superb. Unfortunately this is where the great experience ended as we have never been made to feel so uncomfortable in a restaurant by the people serving us, to the point that we couldn't wait to pay the bill and leave! We were the first table in the evening at 5pm and were seated right by the bar but we struggled to get eye contact with the staff who were either chatting behind the bar or staring into space. At no point did they ask us if everything was ok or if we wanted another drink. We tried to engage them in some chatter when they served us but to no avail. I don't know if in someway we offended them but we really could not work out what we had done wrong to be treated this way. Unfortunately we will not be returning, which is a shame as the food is excellent. Fortunately our evening was not completely spoiled as a visit to the local community centre in Nairn found us invited to a Ceilidh and a very warm welcome and fun evening."

"After visiting Nairn regularly for the last 7 years, we have tried unsuccessfully to get a table at the Classrom for one reason or another. This week, I managed to book a table for Monday night. We arrived early to have a cocktail, which was...delicious. We got to our table at 7pm to be told that 2 items were unavailable, I’d already chosen one of those items, the waitress told me there was actually 1 portion left in the kitchen. I ordered the chicken with couscous and sweet potatoes and my husband a burger. All the surrounding tables were being served, but after 40 minutes we still hadn’t, the waitress told us there were only 2 people in the kitchen and our food was being plated up…another 10 minutes and it came…plates so hot we couldn’t touch them..food so dried out and sweet potatoes burnt black…I was so disappointed, I’d been waiting years to come here. My husband told them the food was inedible and that we were leaving..he asked for the bill but was told there would be no bill. A total waste of 2 hours and by the time we walked back to our hotel, the restaurant was closed…very hungry by now. Nairn isn’t big enough to have bad food served..won’t be back."

"During our holiday in Lossiemouth, we dined at Jackos with our dog for lunch. The food and service were both outstanding. I ordered fish and chips with a side of coleslaw and onion rings (the onion rings were possibly the best I've ever had, they were large and had a delicious sweet flavor). The fish and chips were also excellent, as was the coleslaw. My partner enjoyed the mac and cheese as well. We were pleased to find that Jackos is dog-friendly as an added bonus. Overall, we would highly recommend this restaurant."

"Hugely disappointed with Sun Dancer, we’re in Nairn for 3 nights visiting from Edinburgh, we booked two nights at the Sun dancer as we’d visited and enjoyed dinner last year. Tonight was so disappointing, it was dire. I had the fish and chips, it should have not left the kitchen, not sure what quality control the chef has in place but any decent chef would not send out a dish with chips under cooked and fish with batter that was soggy and bland! I’m not sure if the fish had been frozen and the chips certainly suggested they were frozen. When you are in a party of 4 you don’t want to spoil the atmosphere by complaining but I ate little and did mention to the waitress when the plates were taken, her response was oh they like to get feedback! Really! .. she should have removed it from the bill! My friends mother had lemon posset! It was awful, hard and not as a posset should be, we did complain about that and to be fair to them they removed from the bill. We left a gratuity as it’s not the waiting staff’s issue however, being so disappointed with the quality of food and responses from staff, I unfortunately would not like to go back!"
