Nestled amid the breathtaking landscape of the Isle of Skye, Storr View Coffee is far more than just a coffee stop—it’s an experience that beautifully complements your outdoor adventures. This charming coffee hut, perfectly situated at 9HX, A855, Portree IV51 9HX, offers travelers a delightful refuge after a rigorous hike or scenic drive.

What makes Storr View Coffee truly special is the seamless blend of robust, expertly brewed coffee and heartwarming hospitality. Customers consistently praise the quality of their drinks, from smooth, rich americanos with creamy oat milk to velvety flat whites that leave a lasting impression. Amy Wagner highlights her enthusiasm for the “best flat white I’ve ever had” accompanied by a decadent brownie, while David Kim applauds the “solid Americano with great flavor” that perfectly balances smoothness without bitterness.

The menu, though unlisted here, clearly emphasizes freshly baked home treats—famed flapjacks, millionaire bars, and apple-blackcurrant flapjacks have all left unforgettable impressions on visitors. These comforting baked goods taste like a homemade embrace, ideal for replenishing energy after an invigorating climb or exploring the rugged trails nearby.

Beyond the excellent food and drink, what truly sets Storr View Coffee apart is its connection to place. Situated at a vantage point overlooking the spectacular Bearreraig Bay, with views stretching toward Raasay and the distant outlines of The Old Man of Storr, every sip comes with a stunning visual feast. Callum Skilling aptly describes it as “the ideal place” for those arriving by car or completing the hike, while Sparks LIO recalls the staggering vistas enjoyed while savoring their cake.

The personable service also stands out—friendly staff not only craft excellent coffee but share their local knowledge with warmth, guiding visitors to must-see spots like Miss Skye, a nearby female-led business, enriching the overall journey. Ceitidh Smith and others have appreciated this friendly touch, which transforms a simple coffee stop into a memorable highlight of their trip.

Stopped by for a well and truly needed delicious coffee after our hike up the storr! For a little business… what fantastic service we were greeted by. Lovely home baking, and lovely customer service. The coffee was really good - had an americano with oat milk and my partner had a flat white. The clerk also recommended other places to visit on our trip which we used Miss Skye ( the only girl running the place). Thank you, for making our engagement trip! From Indianapolis, Indiana

I was hiking to The Old Storr thinking about coffee and boom! A nice stop when hiking the area. There is good coffee, nice baking, cold drinks and Walker's crisps. Take a break on your trip and enjoy this magnificient view.

If your driving up in the car not planning to actually hike the Storr Trail then this is the ideal place. Stop.here, get some photos of the spectacular views across the Bearreraig Bay to Raasay, and of the Ol Man which isn't particularly discernable from this angle however you get man brillant views of it on the drive out where there are place to stop and get photos on approach. The coffee and cakes we had were brillant, really good quality and fresh and at very very good prices for a place with a captive audience at a major tourist hotspot. Perfect pit stop

This little coffee hut blew my husband and my mind! Best flat white I’ve ever had as well as the brownie! My husband said his decaf americano was amazing and it was the best millionaire bar he’s ever had! Not a bad view either! Wish we could visit every day!

Don't let Storr hide the brilliance of this little gem. I expected "good enough" coffee at best, but I was thoroughly impressed by the Americano and my first Flapjack. Americano: solid Americano with great flavor. Not at all bitter and no strong notes. Just smooth. Earl Grey: wife thought it was ok, but better than expected in a remote area after a hike. Flapjack: we got the apple and blackcurrant one. It was like if a nutrigrain bar (for us folks from the US) grew up in a top-tier bakery.

Stopped off for a coffee after climbing the old man of storr, this little coffee stop was fantastic, the lady serving was lovely, car park is just big enough for 10 x cars roughly and and Overflow section I presume for motor homes. Would highly recommend, the views were staggering whilst we sipped our drinks and ate our cakes. Well worth a visit. Will definitely return next year.
