The Dory Bistro & Gallery
About
The Dory Bistro & Gallery is a coastal haven in the charming fishing village of Pittenweem, where the freshest sea‑food is farm‑to‑table daily. Combining a relaxed bistro atmosphere, a curated art gallery showcasing Scotland’s maritime painters, and an ever‑expanding kitchen garden, guests can enjoy lobster, langoustine, and locally‑farmed game alongside crisp wines from nearby breweries. Whether you’re a foodie, a gallery enthusiast or simply looking for a quiet escape by the harbour, the Dory offers a warm, wheel‑chair‑accessible setting with friendly staff who love to share stories of Fife’s sea and soil. The restaurant’s kitchen garden supplies a rotating selection of herbs, vegetables and fruit, ensuring every dish bursts with garden‑fresh flavours. Art lovers will be delighted by the maritime‑themed canvases that line the dining hall, including works by Malcolm Cheape and other celebrated local artists. The gallery also offers an online shop for those who want to take a piece of the harbour home. Reservations are recommended for lunch and dinner (Wednesday–Sunday) to secure a table, especially during peak season. Contact the team by phone (01333 311222) or email reservations@thedory.co.uk to book your experience or inquire about special private dining in the gallery’s intimate room for up to 20 guests.
