Comunn Eachdraidh Nis - Isle of Lewis

Lovely wee place with a gift shop and little museum. I had an oat latte here and a vegan cheese and tomato toastie. Was delighted to be able to get vegan cheese! They also had 2 vegan soups on the menu. With the toastie, they ask you if you want the coleslaw (non vegan), crisps and side salad so as to reduce waste. Lots of lovely cakes in the display cabinet but none were vegan. They did give us that ol ' chestnut they 're gluten free though!!! . The staff were absolutely lovely though and this place is a credit to the local community!! Will definitely visit again.

I was in Ness for three weeks and ate lunch regularly in the cafe at Comunn Eachdraidh Nis Ness Historical Society in Gaelic/Gàidhlig) during this time. Good coffee, amazing food, and the best atmosphere! Chef Catherine 's soups of the day are some of the best and the homemade red onion chutney is delicious! Bread for the sandwiches comes from the local Blackhouse Bakery in Stornoway. There 's also a daily selection of homebakes, which often includes gluten free and they 're looking into vegan cake options. Additionally, the building contains a shop selling local products, a lovely museum with exhibitions telling the story of Ness 's local history, and a well stocked archive containing historical records from the area. Comunn Eachdraidh Nis is a true community hub, taking pride in the area 's bilingual nature and native language of Gàidhlig which you will find spoken and written on signs throughout the building alongside English. Well worth a visit! Tòrr ghaol air an àite sònraichte seo. Dìreach sgoinneil! Updated from previous review on 2021 05 27

Nice meeting place with gift shop and small museum. I had a oat latte and a vegan cheese and tomato toastia. Was thrilled to get vegan cheese! They also had 2 vegan soups on the menu. With the toastia they ask you whether you want the Coleslaw (not vegan), scratches and side salad to reduce waste. Many beautiful cakes in the display cabinet, but none were vegan. They gave us that ol ' chestnuts they 're gluten-free though!!! . The staff was absolutely beautiful and this place is a loan to the local community!! Will definitely visit again.
