We Won the Best Walkers’ Café Award!
We are immensely proud to announce that we won the prestigious TGO Magazine The Great Outdoors Awards' in the Best Walkers Café category for the third consecutive time.
We are so grateful to the customers who voted for us and whose loyalty plays such a vital role in making the café the vibrant community and warm environment it is today, in the stunning setting of the scenic Trossachs National Park and the Scottish Highlands. We welcome walkers, runners and outdoor enthusiasts from around the globe, many of whom are here to enjoy the iconic West Highland Way and others, the plentiful, beautiful and diverse mountains and trails that this incredible part of Scotland has to offer.
Our Tyndrum Cafe turns 20 in 2025, a real milestone moment, so we’re looking forward to celebrating throughout the year with all of you who have supported us for the last two decades, including our large, vibrant outdoor community.
Sarah Heward, the Cafe's founder and co-owner, said: "Massive thanks to all our lovely customers and friends who voted, enabling us to take the title of TGO Magazine Best Walkers' Cafe of the Year, for the third consecutive time.
We are super delighted to have won this accolade, bringing it home for Scotland, Official West Highland Way and Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park, against strong competition from the Lakes and Snowdonia."
