Judith Glue and The Real Food Cafe

The Real Food Cafe and Restaurant is situated at the back of Judith Glues shop - an Aladdins cave situated opposite St Magnus Cathedral.  Everything is cooked in the open kitchen headed by Kirsty and her team of great home cooks. You can watch your food being made right in front of you while enjoying a glass of good wine or local beer.

Judith's ethos is to use as much local fresh Orkney produce as possible as these days customers want to know what is on their plates and where it is sourced from locally. The atmosphere is all about feeling like you are sitting in your own kitchen at home! A specials board changes daily and choices can be anything from local Westray Crab sandwiches, fresh salads including leaves from Judiths garden in the Summer from our deli, Orkney Taster boards to  daily home bakes or Orkney cheesecake.
Customers can also even have a try sitting on an original Orkney chair ! 
Local food and drink Produce is available to buy in the shop along with Judith's collection of Orkney Knitwear and loads of many other interesting things ....so you can even shop while you enjoy a meal!

The premises also hold a licence for entry of young children and they are very welcome. You can choose from Local bottled Ales , Gins, Whiskies and Rum plus House Wine chosen by local Duncan Mclean who runs local delicatessen Kirkness and Gorie a short walk down the street from us.
From June to August we are open late Monday to Friday evenings for early suppers.

Daily specials are posted regularly on the Facebook page for Judith Glue Shop and The Real Food Cafe.
