A
Hamnavoe Restaurant
Tucked away off the main street, this Stromness favourite specialises in excellent local seafood backed up by professional service. There’s always something good off the boats, and the chef prides himself on his lobster. Booking is a must. From November to March, it’s only open Saturday and Sunday for dinner; in summer it also opens for lobster lunches on Saturday.

B
Julia’s Café & Bistro
This cafe with a conservatory, opposite the port, keeps all-comers happy, with massive fry-ups offset on the cardiac karma scale by the wraps, salads and tempting vegetarian dishes such as nut roast or couscous. In summer it opens for dinner with elaborate fare (£10 to £13) on offer.

C
Stromness Hotel
This central hotel does excellent seafood dishes fused with tastes of the Orient, and there are vegetarian options. There’s a lounge bar with harbour views, or the earthier, convivial Flattie Bar downstairs.
