Great wee place ,just next to Kirkwall Hotel.It belongs to Kirkwall Hotel and breakfast is in main Kirkwall Hotel.Nice and quiet room.

March 12th, a bitterly cold evening and the warmth of the reception and the elegant dining room instantly warmed us up. Quickly served drinks and menus to browse in the cosy, friendly ambience helped us relax. The menu is creative and inviting. We were dining late and had a selection of starters and the lamb dish. The smoked haddock risotto was exceptional and the slow cooked lamb was delicious too. We couldn't resist the desert menu and found the baked cheesecake and pecan pie to be a perfect end to the dinner.We have enjoyed The Shore's consistently high quality dishes many times now and this was another gold star dinner.Food, environment, service all excellent- Thanks once again!

We had dinner in the bar area today rather than the restaurant. We only had mains and a drink. I had lamb which was tender, well cooked and very tasty. My wife thoroughly enjoyed her haggis dish. The staff member who seated us was exceptionally helpful. Serving staff were also excellent. Great eating experience. The only minor complaint was some other customers chatting excessively loudly. Eating in the restaurant area would have suited us better however it was otherwise excellent.
