Services
Whether choosing from the la carte menu or a full evening meal you can be certain that only the very best of locally sourced ingredients have been employed. From the organic breads and brioches to the sauces, Chef Patrick especially enjoys being able to use his savoir-faire in creating the dishes.
The Seven Stills can be your exclusive venue for all types of occasion giving you private access to the lounge and restaurant, use of a fully stocked bar and garden area. An ideal atmosphere for special celebrations, lunches, afternoon teas, birthdays and intimate weddings. If you are interested in hiring the Seven Stills, contact Rose to discuss requirements and talk through any bespoke requests.
On every new vista on your journey to Dufftown, you become aware of the incredible number of distilleries making themselves known by the mysterious plumes of vapour rising out of the valleys. The whisky bar is where you can experience the fruits of these labours. Cosy up to our log stove whilst you decide which of the over 300 choice malt whiskies is going to make your night complete.
If you so choose, find your way into what has been described as a hidden gem, known as 'The Miniatures Gallery', after having paid the price of admission, a miniature whisky bottle, naturally. Literally a hidden snug, where the word 'snug' and 'miniature' adopts a new meaning, where you can relax in this exclusive space which is possibly the smallest whisky snug in Scotland.

Visited tonight for my wife's birthday meal and wasn't disappointed. Had the seafood platter followed by the cheese platter both were 5 star as was the service and hosts. A great place to spend an evening and eat excellent food in homely and comfortable surroundings.

After 10 days in Scotland, my partner and I both agree this was our favorite dinner of the trip. Patrick and Rose run such a special restaurant and it is clear that they are both passionate in what they do. The food, drinks and ambiance are all top notch. If you are lucky enough to have a chance to visit Seven Stills, do not hesitate!!

My husband and I stayed in a B&B a few miles outside of Dufftown, and Seven Stills was recommended by the owners of our accommodation...I'm delighted that they did!
The owners, Rose and Patrick, are friendly and welcoming, and the food (all cooked by Patrick himself) was out of this world!
The French onion soup and pheasant terrine entrées were… simply divine, and the haggis, neeps, and tatties we both had for main course were amazing (oh, my goodness; that whisky cream sauce...wow!) What really impressed me though was Patrick's crème brûlée, as it's absolutely

Amazing to find a restaurant of this caliber in a town (village?) as small as Dufftown. Magnificent food, wonderful and comfortable space. Head chef kept coming out to speak with us which we enjoyed. The bar will not disappoint anyone. So many options.

Really nice restaurant/whisky bar run by really nice people. A warm welcome on arrival and since I was flying solo i was offered the chance to sit at the bar which was ideal. The food was really amazing, huge portions and jam packed full of flavour. Patrick the chef took time to chat with all the customers and it was nice to hear his passion for food and using the best quality local ingredients and it certainly shows in his cooking. Patricks wife Rose runs the show front of house and does a grand job whipping up cocktails, serving food and taking time to have a wee chat on the fly. The whisky selection

Undoubtedly, one of the most beautiful and cosy bars across Scotland, if not the best I've visited. Rose and Patrick are extremely hospitable and communicative. A lot of work has been put in the interior spaces which creates an amazing atmosphere for visitors. Patrick's food is delicious and unique and there's also a massive list of fine whiskies to enjoy your visit. The easiest 5 out of 5 stars review I could ever give.

Probably the best meal we have had in very long time. The chef is French from Macon and his meals are prepared from the best of ingredients not bought in ready meals.

There is something special in this restaurant and it is the owners, not everyday you are greeted by the chef Patrick (owner) asked for the food quality. His wife Rose, the kindest person is serving with smile and warmth. The food was exquisite, the whisky collection is impressive. It was like we were in Wonderland of food and drinks. You have to go there at least once!

Fantastic food. Did open for our group after reservation (normally closed on Friday). Very friendly Lady runs the pub. French husband in the kitchen: creative ideas! And a very long list of great Whisky's too. If you are in Dufftown a must visit!

Wonderful dinner! Felt like family by the time we left. Rosamond and Patrick were superb in customer service with history about Dufftown too. Beginning with our French Onion soup to ending with whiskey flambeed fruit cake EVERYTHING was a delight.
The ambience and character of Seven Stills was authentically Highlands.
We will be back with a group! Can't wait ❤🖒
