New Chef: 

New and exciting times at the hotel with the arrival of Patrick Farren, our new chef.  He has 23 years experience in the hospitality industry.  Patrick has a wealth of experience in the kitchen, having worked in several high profile hotels  in Britain, including  4 star and Michelin star ratings.  This decision to work and live in Lewis is a lifestyle choice  for Patrick and his family.  Patrick's focus  is on a his  challenge to give Doune Braes his  quality, style and standard  of food which he  believes the hotel deserves.  He is using mostly locally sourced  produce including heather fed lamb, hand dived scallops, beef from nearby crofts and wild venison from hills around us.  What I find amazing about Patrick's food is how he cleverly uses herbs and spices so subtly that his food is really quite special.  Come along and share and experience our exciting  new beginning at Doune Braes.

Meals:

The Doune Braes Hotel offers a range of facilities to cater for groups, functions and the individual needs of our guests.

Food is served all day, seven days per week from 12:00 to 20:30 except on Sundays, when last orders for meals are taken at 19:30. We take pride in providing excellent service to all of our customers, whether they are stopping for a meal, a snack, or staying in the hotel. Wherever possible, we will find a way to accommodate your every need. During the winter months, please check in advance for daytime meals.

Should you plan to spend the day out and wish to have a picnic somewhere on a nearby beach, a lovely long walk or perhaps go for a day of fly fishing, we are happy to provide a packed picnic lunch at your request. A little advance notice of your departure time for the day is all that is required!

A list of our facilities is given below and pictured to the left:

The restaurant seating accommodates 36 for à la carte or bar meals. We specialise in a variety of local, fresh seafood dishes such as shellfish, prawns, scallops, lobster and whitefish. The menu also includes a range of meat and vegetarian dishes.

Hotel lounge bar area: relax over a drink and perhaps order from our bar menu. The bar menu differs from the dining room, but naturally you can make your choice from either menu!

Public bar: with a private entrance from the hotel, this is a fun place for friends to meet and challenge each other over a round of pool. Our public bar also has a television and provides the perfect location to watch football matches and other sporting events.
