Cobbs Cafe - Highland

Just going to call this place over the handling/storage of their food. I ordered 2 x tuna salad rolls today...the salad was cold (so had been refrigerated) but the lettuce was limp and slightly discoloured...certainly not fresh. I was happy enough with that BUT the tuna was look warm! Obviously not refrigerated and I suffered later that day...I wasn't actually sick thankfully but sweating and not feeling great at all...all I could think about was that warm tuna...the only thing I'd eaten all day so I'm absolutely certain, the food was to blame.

I stopped here twice in the past month and the food is very good. I had a bacon roll and coffee breakfast and a Cheese and ham toastie with salad lunch on the second occasion. The ingredients are all top quality, carefully prepared and skilfully cooked.

Aviemore is looking sad and tired and sorely lacking decent places to stop for food. Cobbs fills that gap, you get a really nice panini with a lovely salad but £7.95 , ouch. It really needs an overhaul and brightening up but there is not excuse for the tables being dirty. We ate upstairs and ended up getting spray and cloths off the trolley and cleaning the table ourselves before the food came. We did get a free re-fill on a drink however which was nice. Come on Cobbs, you could be so much nicer with a lick of paint and a better cleaning routine!!

1- The staff were rude and blunt, except one or two of the younger ones working there. When asking questions about the food they replied as if we were stupid. 2- It’s not very clean, the tables were sticky and had crumbs on them, even after a tiny wipe they were of course still sticky. 3- The pre-packaged food like the empire biscuits and ice cream are lovely, but made in a factory or bakery somewhere else. The hot food we ordered was warm-ish and lacked flavour. The coffee was bitter yet very bland and watery. However they sell drinks like coke and Fanta which are nice

Visited here today in a small group whilst travelling back to England. We were very pleased with the variety of food on offer great quality and a good portion size for the price and the excellent service that came with it too! The lady who served us at the till was so lovely, the food came out quick and she made sure everything was as we'd hoped for. She even gave us a cake to leave with. Would definitely visit again! Thank you!
