Good vegan options - Edit
We visited The Wildcat in June 2025 for lunch. We had the macaroni cheese and a mushroom and cheese filled croissant. Both were nice and it's always great to find a fully vegan place. They had lots of cakes and pastries available and the Millionaire’s Cake we opted for was delicious.

Best place in Fort Williams - Edit
Good food, slightly bland but with some salt & pepper it tasted great. Also lots of vegan pastry to choose from.

Massive disappointment - Edit
Overpriced and bland food, we had the steak and also vegetable pasties both were underwhelming and £8 each!!! We also had a wrap and a piece of cake (I can't remember which now) again bland and disappointing. Yes it's great that it is all vegan but the menu and taste of food could be massively improved especially for the ridiculose prices.

Nice! - Edit
The food was great. We had a toddler with us and the seating was a tiny bit tricky with that in mind but not a huge issue. Plus the staff were friendly with him. Really enjoyed the Mac and cheese and the tea selection

The coffee (long black & Cappuccino ) was so good, exceptional coffee !
Dog friendly too
Thank you Wild Cat

Adorable place, great food and pastries - Edit
Such a lovely spot and wonderful food. Was looking forward to stopping here on our way out to Skye from Glen Coe area and it did not disappoint! We ate in for breakfast and took some pastries to go. Note that it does fill up fast to get there early!

Nice vegan food - Edit
The small Café offers many nice vegan dishes as a daily menu, soups, many different cakes, and pastries. It was very well visited and it was difficult to get a seat. The vegan Mac n Cheese was great, but the taste not as hearty as the smell. The sauce was not really like cheese, more like vegan cream.

Great breakfast and queer friendly - Edit
Especially their Black Forest waffles and chocolate chip cookies were really good and it has quite a queer friendly atmosphere.

Lovely vegan scones - Edit
Wonderful vegan cafe in Fort William. Not many vegan places in this area so super happy to have found this. Especially nice to get vegan scones.
Read moreWhen we arrived there was a queue. We were lucky to get a table relatively quickly (although the table organisation did not seem super efficient to us). We came at around 14:00/14:15 and several things were already sold out since they close at 16:00 (but still many delicious things left!).

Fantastic - Edit
This place is a real treasure. Their specialities are the tofu scramble and the waffles, but the whole menu is good and they do pastries and cakes also. Decent coffee, wide range of teas & hot chocolate. A real find.

Vegan Breakfast - Edit
I had the Korean Tofu Scramble on Sourdough which was tasty and NOT spicy. Also one of the best chai lattes I've had. A little pricey but it is a tourist town and the restaurant is very centrally located. Portion size was fair.

Brilliant cafe with an amazing menu - Edit
I loved that The Wildcat is fully vegan so there was no need to worry about what o was going to order and it was nice to have such an extensive menu of options. I ended up having a takeaway coffee with a cinnamon swirl and it was amazing. Highly recommend

An absolute gem - Edit
A very unexpected, and completely welcome, vegan find in Fort William. I still dream of the biscoff cake -- it may be the best cake I've ever had. The curry was also excellent. A must if you're in the area.

Fantastic Food - Edit
We were only in Fort William for two days and went to the Wildcat three times it was so good. Highlights were the tofu and mushroom florentine and the full Scottish breakfast. Everything is vegan and there's been a lot of thought put into the dishes. Really nice food, really nice atmosphere. We will definitely go back :)
