Food Shops in the Outer Hebrides

A trip to the local community shop is a must during your visit to the Outer Hebrides.

Local food shops are an essential part of our island communities and a great place to pick up everything you need for your stay. These shops are a treasure trove for local Hebridean produce and are a great way to meet the locals and find out what is going on in the area. We also have regular farmers markets in some districts and our community shops and Welcome Points are the best place to find out when they are on. Pick up a community shop leaflet whilst you travel through our islands. You can download by clicking here.

We also have lots of specialist food shops, whether it is a delicatesen, a butcher or a seadood shop, that you are after, we have a lot of options for you!

If you are looking for a large selection of goods supermarket, we have at least one on most islands.

You can also follow our Eat Drink Hebrides Trail, and you will be sure to sample some of our delicious local food and drink.
