Judith Glue and The Real Food Cafe

About

The Judith Glue Real Food Cafe, situated opposite St Magnus Cathedral in the historic heart of Kirkwall, Orkney, offers a laid‑back dining experience that celebrates local produce. Open daily for breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner – from 10:00 am until 4:30 pm Monday‑Saturday, and 11:00 am‑3:30 pm on Sundays – patrons can enjoy hearty, home‑cooked dishes prepared right in front of them in the cafe’s open kitchen. The menu showcases seasonal, locally sourced ingredients, including free‑range eggs, sea‑farmed fish, and the bakery’s fresh breads and pastries. The venue allows for a relaxed, family‑friendly atmosphere and accepts credit cards, has free Wi‑Fi, and offers both indoor and on‑site seating. A separate shop run by the same owners sells knitwear and gifts from the same local sources, inviting customers to take the taste of Orkney home. Dining at the Real Food Cafe is a culinary journey that highlights the island’s best produce and offers a genuine taste of Orkney hospitality.
