Mambos - Highland

I stopped by this restaurant for breakfast while staying in Aviemore. It turned out to be a fantastic decision! The vegetarian breakfasts were delicious, freshly prepared, and the chef even added some grilled halloumi which was a pleasant surprise. The dishes were beautifully presented, showing that the chef takes pride in their work. The waiting staff were friendly and attentive, making the overall experience a positive one.

I went to this restaurant for breakfast, and it was quite pleasant. The service was friendly and the food was decent. However, I was deeply offended, which is why I am giving it only one star. The night before, my friends and I had stopped by for some drinks before going to a nightclub. While there were no issues with the bar itself, the next morning as I was having breakfast, I overheard the waitress (with dark hair) talking to the bartender (with auburn hair) and their friends. They were discussing the previous night, and she kept referring to the patrons as "old people nursing drinks because they were all going to see Dave Pearce." As someone in my late thirties, I found this remark offensive. I also overheard conversations about the staff being expected to clean throughout their shift without any extra pay. While the waitress provided good service to us, I recommend that she be more mindful of her comments and tone in such a small space. I suggest avoiding this restaurant if you do not want to encounter ageism during your breakfast.

We went to this restaurant for lunch with our dog (which is great because not all places allow dogs). We were greeted by friendly staff and shown to our seats. The atmosphere was lively and pleasant, with attentive staff. However, the food was average. My wife ordered a chicken burger and received three tough, dry breaded chicken fillets in a bun. I ordered the New Yorker premium hot dog with chili, but there was nothing premium about it. The chili made with minced beef was forgettable and bland. The coffees were good. My wife had to squeeze past pool and darts players to get to the restroom. Overall, I probably wouldn't choose to come back here as my first or second choice. Maybe I would consider coming back for a beer and nachos, as they looked appealing.

Excellent atmosphere, staff were Lovely and the food amazing. Best breakfast I’ve had out. Also had the footy on

Great wee dog friendly cafe, really good hot coffee and good beer, good staff. Outdoor and inside seating.
