Our chef takes pride in carefully selecting seasonally available produce to create stunning menus.
Shetland is abundant with fresh local ingredients. Many dishes are based on our rich heritage and culture including fishing and crofting and are often planned to fit in with themed exhibitions or events in the Museum.
The vibrant daytime café atmosphere provides a perfect setting for light snacks, lunches or afternoon coffee with a delicious homemade scone. Our Snacks Menu is available all day, and daily specials are available in addition to the Lunch Menu from 12 noon to 3.00pm daily (including Sunday).
Our exclusive Mootie Moose Menu offers a range of tasty smaller portions for our younger diners. Mootie Moose is a popular character at Shetland Museum and Archives and can often be found leading gallery tours and activity workshops for younger children.
Evening dining offers a more refined and relaxed ambience. Enjoy beautifully prepared meals from our Evening Menu accompanied by fine wine from our extensive Wine List. Our waiting staff will be pleased to suggest a wine to accompany your meal. Ask our waiting staff for details of today’s Chef’s Special.
