Am Fuaran Bar in Highland

Great pub/restuarant. Staff very friendly and welcoming. We were there 2 evenings first only for drinks, after seeing the meals had fish and chips the second night. Food first class freshly cooked for us. Very well presented. Would recommend a visit.

This gem of a place continues to provide the very best food, service and atmosphere. We enjoyed oysters, lobster, steak and langoustines, all cooked to perfection. We booked a late table, so special thanks to Alex for taking our order earlier in the day so we could guarantee some shellfish. See you next year.

Admittedly we didn't check food serving hours and arrived 8 minutes after they stopped serving food. We had a drink but it was disappointing to hear after a while diners being offered desserts and coffee. We would have been happy with that.

Great seafood and friendly service. Langoustines were great and very fresh as were scallops and haddock. We really enjoyed the meal

From beginning to end faultless, scallops and steak were exceptional, I've eaten in many places but this was superb!! Staff were attentive & friendly, everything was timed to perfection.Well done keep it up !!

At first sight, a lovely Scottish pub with a good decor. We were shown to our table, told there was no seafood today and given the basic menu which consists of 2 steaks, 2 pies and 2 vegetarian options. We were disappointed but ordered 2 pies. But then the blackboard menu came out and was passed around the other 3 tables of diners. On it, langoustines, scampi and haddock!!! We were absolutely baffled. The pies were decent (not worth £21 each though) but they left a bitter taste as we watched those plates of langoustines going to other tables. All we could think was that the other customers were staying on the campsite and were getting special treatment. We had driven 45 minutes to get to that seafood place. If you phone to book, make sure you say you’re on the campsite when they ask, you might be allowed seafood…

We visited for dinner as a family of 4 (two adults and two children) between Christmas & New Year while touring the NC500 and staying at the Port A Baigh Campsite which is directly opposite. When we arrived at Port A Baigh it was recommended that we ought to book in advance if we wanted dinner at the restaurant and I’m glad I did as although it was only mid-afternoon they were almost fully booked and only had two times available for us. Only a small pub, the atmosphere was warm and inviting with a roaring fire and plenty of Christmas decorations and lights. Service was amazing and nothing was too much trouble. Although the menu is brief the quality of the food more than makes up for it. My husband had steak & chips while I had haddock & chips and the children had chicken goujons & chips and cheeseburger & chips. Puddings were ice-cream for the children, Baileys Cheescake for me and Banoffee Cheesecake for hubby.

Located in a beautiful spot, and directly opposite Port A Bhaigh campsite, which was convenient for us :-) . The staff were lovely, the food was delicious, the venue is cosy and reasonably priced, can't ask for more really

This is not the easiest place to find, but if you do you will not be disappointed. Excellent food and good service. I had the steak burger, my wife the fish & chip, and both were the best we have ever had.

Popped up from Inverness for the day to sample lunch in beautiful weather. We had heard lots of great reviews from local friends and we weren't dissapointed. Both my wife and I had the langoustine scampi in a light batter with chips and a very fresh and delicious salad. This was possibly the best we have ever tasted. Staff (possibly the owners) were very friendly and helpful.

We walked a 6-mile round route to dine at this restaurant, having seen the amazing website and heard great reviews. What happened? There were no apologies, just a sad blackboard on the floor which was easily missable. The staff said nothing. No explanations given. We were served up awful junk food. It tasted as bad i it looked. Presumably straight out the freezer? None of the home grown salad or herb leaves mentioned on the business website. Instead, beige, dry and tasteless “chicken” burger and a glue-like stodgy bean burger. Both served with what tasted like oven chips? We also stupidly assumed, as it was a bar next to a campsite, dogs would be welcome. But instead we had to eat outside, where the local collie dog was roaming and kicking off dog fights. The outside eating areas had no cover, not even a tarp, so no protection from the drizzle. Hugely disappointing all round - but the staff didn’t seem to care about customer care or satisfaction. Save yourselves the bother, eat elsewhere.

Went for a birthday meal. Great food as always, Langoustines and scallops, and the best scampi in the world!

This is a hidden gem. I cannot say enough about the food and the service. Absolutely outstanding. They all work so hard but always smile and make you feel welcome. The food is out of this world. I can’t wait to go back next year. Thanks

La posizione non compensa la scortesia del personale. Tutta quella strada per esse trattato male veramente non ne vale la pena. VERGOGNOSO

Was on holiday in Reiff, seen a sign for the pub as it was such a beautiful afternoon we drove along the long, plenty of parking and plenty of seats outside with amazing views, you walk inside the pub and it’s amazing. We decided to book for the following day for evening meal, luckily we were able to get a table as it is so busy. We arrived for our meal and we were met by very friendly staff who showed us to our table. We were given a menu and seafood menu was on a board which was brought to the table. We weren’t rushed while we looked over the menu. The food well all I can say was AMAZING. We have ate in a lot of places and this was one of the best that we have ever been to. Ended up going back for food 3 times in a week and also for drinks in the beer garden with some of the most beautiful views of the summer isles. Highly recommended. Will certainly be returning next time we are near there.

Am Fuaran is a very cosy little pub/restaurant. We stopped by for some lunch, and there were quite a few other people also eating. Service was great, thank you to the lovely lady who served us. The dinner and lunch menus are the same - it's a small menu and a couple of items weren't available (though there were also a couple of seafood specials). That's the one suggestion we have, it would be nice to have a separate lunch menu as the dinner menu items were quite 'heavy', large and a bit expensive for lunchtime. However, there was also a children's menu and a couple of adults in our party ordered from this and we heard other people doing the same - the items on it were perfect for lunch! All of the food was delicious, with a particular mention for the chicken and mushroom pie which was exceptional! I would really recommend the Am Fuaran, particularly for an evening meal. We would definitely return.

this was an INCREDIBLY expensive meal for food that was mediocre at best... the chips were soggy, salad tastes like it was from tesco, and the carrots were like shop carrots heated up. i ordered scampi and the prawn was flavourless and the batter thin and chewy. i feel myself and the people i went with were entirely ripped off and now thats a huge sum of money i could of saved. really regretting my purchase and will NOT be going back nor recommending to anyone. the only good thing is that the staff were pleasant.

We had been here several times in the past and has invited friends to join us. Not sure what’s happened but the prices have almost doubled from what’s being advertised on the website. So that was a shocker for starters. Also the food was really poor. I had the scampi which came with frozen crinkle cut chips, packet salad and carrot batons warmed up so they were bland and limp. Dreadful! I didn’t even eat that it was so bad. All for £24 compared to the £14 shown on the website. It used to be very good food but £14 would have been expensive for the poor quality. We had planned to eat at the pub for two nights but not at that price! I’m so angry about this that I will not return. We’d planned a big group trip later in the year but I think we’ll find somewhere else now. Just blatant profiteering as it’s the only game in town. Shame. It used to be really excellent. :(

Looking for food near Ullapool and came across Am Fuaran and weren’t we lucky - beautiful evening drive to a real jewel of a place - great menu - surprising variety and quality and excellent meals - staff were fun and the whole evening was 5 stars - loved it - don’t usually write reviews but couldn’t not give this 👍👍👍

Best restaurant experience we have had in a long while. Cosy, comfy and characterful setting. Friendly and efficient staff. Excellent food and reasonably priced.

Nicole and Emily are both very welcoming, friendly and gave us on our 4 visits here excellent service. Andrew and Catrina are still here and the overall hospitality is great. The choice of fresh sea food is superb, and compliments to the chef !

We visited because of excellent reviews. We found staff were unreasonable and unfriendly. Smoked Salmon starter (12.95) was not whiskey cured and not fresh. Small portion. Vegetable Wellington was Luke warm, uncooked vegetables and highly acidic. We both had very bad stomachs one hour after eating even though we left half of it. Would not recommend, extortionate prices (most dishes at least £10 more than on website) Will not return for food despite idyllic location and has put us off booking to stay at the campsite

Food was good although a few things were off the menu. We had hoped for smoked salmon and langoustines - both unavailable ☹️. Be aware that prices are NOT as advertised on their website - be prepared to pay a good £10 more per dish!!!

What a find in the middle of no where! Doesn’t look like much on the outside but when you step in, the interior feels very Scottish and cosy! They have a seafood board that changes constantly depending on what they’ve caught that day. The food...

Had a terrific meal there on our first night at campsite . They even managed to squeeze us in the following night as we just had to go back it was so good. Going back again in June this year

whilst visiting Ullapool had lunch at Am Fuaran Bar--great ambience/food and service for such a remote location--we thoroughly enjoyed the crab claws and lobster--a particular mention to Nicole who served us --friendly/informative and very efficient

Every time I return to the Coigach area, multiple meals "At The Well" are an essential component of my trip. The food, the craic and the decor are always in five-star condition, and I don't ever recall sending anything back to the kitchen - not...

Stopped off by chance for wonderful food. Scampi out of this world, fantastic atmosphere, beautiful location and staff really helpful. Definitely worth making a detour to stop off here.

Such a lovely, welcoming place. Not too big inside so recommend booking which we had done. Staff - we had Nicole serving us, what a lovely, lovely cheery young girl. She made us feel so welcome, explaining the photos on the walls were of the...

Treated with a warm welcome in the bar on arrival and our waitress really looked after us for the whole meal. Highly recommend the daily seafood specials, especially the Langoustine starter and Whole Lobster main course. This place must make a very cosy evening in...

Excellent wee bar and restaurant, we had the dogs and sat outside as they aren’t allowed inside. The food was top class as was the service. 100% recommend a visit here

Ambiance conviviale et chaleureuse. Plats très bons et généreux, il y a la possibilité d’avoir un doggy bag. Poissons et...

We stopped off here for lunch whilst driving the NC500 and really wished that we hadn’t bothered. The welcome was not exactly inviting, there was no hot food to be had, only sandwiches which weren’t all that tasty, so not a good choice for a...

We stayed in a hotel 10 min drive (summer isles hotel) and ate here one evening to mix it up, and glad we did! Excellent service and seafood, big portions and reasonable prices!

We have eaten here often when staying in the area, the food and service are consistently good, everyone is friendly and helpful. At busier times of year it is best to book because it does get very busy.

Hadnt read anything about this place before we went for lunch today. So glad we stopped. Delish seafood/fish simply prepared and served. Great you can choose chips or boiled pots. Reasonably priced. Great Guinness Danielle who served us, was excellent, friendly and informative. Thanks all...

My review of this place would have been the same, had it been for a pub restaurant in a city or town, but considering the fact that Am Fuaran is such a remote place (14 miles from the nearest main road and 24 miles from...

Four of us came here to eat for my sisters birthday. The atmosphere was great. Good variety of drinks. The food was gorgeous. We had langoustine to start; and whiskey smoked salmon, all very fresh and tasty. For mains we had scampi with new potatoes...

Excellent service from Gabby, lovely atmosphere and excellent food. Had the langoustines to start which were extremely fresh and nicely prepared. Fillet steak for my mains….easily the best steak I’ve ever eaten! So tender and cooked to perfection. Will definitely return again on my trip

Turned up for a family meal with the kids, we had the Sirloin Steak, Haddock and Chips and Roast Veg Wellington. All were excellent, fresh, home cooked food with good sized portions. Despite it being early April it was busy but the service from the...

Lovely little pub/restaurant tucked away on the coast. The food was delicious and all home made with good portions. The bar itself had a good variety of drinks and loads of quirky bits and pieces on all the walls.

Brilliant wee place. Looks just like a house from the outside, inside is just what you imagine a Highland pub would look like. Roaring fire, wood panelling, stone walls, antiques everywhere. Lovely, quirky pub to sit out the storm that hit. Really sad that I'd...

Really langoustine here. We were looking forward to the langoustine scampi but alas it was sold out. Opted for the haddock which was delicious and served with fresh veg. Hubby had the chicken pie. We had scallops and garlic mushrooms for starters. All in all...

4 of us had an evening meal here whilst staying on the nearby campsite. We were served by very pleasant and helpful members of staff and all of our meals were delicious! Would definitely recommend this restaurant, we really enjoyed our evening.

We went here for a meal with family. Although the menu is quite restricted, there was suitable vegetarian options. I am dairy and gluten intolerant and as t he menu was unclear I had to ask a couple of questions. The waitress was very kind...

Went there for a meal, whilst on holiday locally. Not much in local area, but this place, was an oasis in the desert. Food was exceptional. Never tasted steak pie like it. Desserts were to die for. But equally as important, the service was brilliant....

Local seafood, freshly cooked at pub prices. Get there early or they might sell out . Had wonderful langoustines and crab.

We stayed at the campsite below and managed to get a table here. Menu is simple but ticked all the boxes. Loving seafood we had had the fresh locally caught scallops and lobster scampi. It was great. Staff excellent and overall a great meal experience....

I was staying at the campsite and would visit the bar late afternoons for a drink. On my fourth visit I went in at 4.30 ordered a drink and a fish and chip takeaway for 6 o'clock. At 5.50 I asked the barman if he...

Good food but the pricing is breathtakingly ambitious especially considering the staff burden the customer with tales of woe regarding staffing difficulties. If you want coffee order at the bar and serve yourself! We visited twice in the one week with family parties of 8...

Lovely cosy bar , nicely laid out restaurant. Fabulous food & friendly, hard working staff ! The menu is great & good portions. Well worth a visit .

We luckily were able to grab a table here at the last minute after arriving at our air bnb after a long day on the motorcycle. Food and staff were fantastic. Environment inside was lovely. It is certainly a good bit of the beaten track...

Absolutely excellent food. We had fresh lobster which was really delicious. The staff were so welcoming and helpful. The atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant. Having had a really negative experience at the Summer Isles Hotel, this more than made up for it. We have booked...

A real pub atmosphere with amazing locally caught seafood, fresh home grown salads. Service was friendly and excellent. A must visit if you are staying locally and perfect if you are staying at the campsite.

The location of this bar is idylic. Tucked away in the idylic scottish west coast near the summer isles. Food is reasonable. Good quality produce but lacking imagination. Fish and scampi were so fresh......but all with battered and very heavy and so were the price!...

Wow what a fantastic pub/restaurant. The inside is fantastically done out with real character and charm. It also had nice outside areas overlooking the sea. The seafood was so fresh! It was absolutely amazing. The staff were friendly and the service efficient. A must if...

Was absolutely gutted not to be able to eat in. As there was no booking facility online I rather foolishly assumed they didn't take bookings. Sadly I was very wrong, but we could get takeaway. This was even harder looking at the amazing food on...

Went to watch the England football to be greeted by a racist young barmaid who told us to return to England when we arrived.. she also swore Infront of my toddler and had no respect for our family. The female owner then came out and...

Good food. Excellent service. Will definitely return next visit . Even kids enjoyed their meals.. ...!

Located in a wonderful setting overlooking the sea. Ideal to enjoy a beer on the outside deck. Takeaway food also available.

Really nice ambiance to the restaurant area and excellent food from starter to dessert. Nicole was our waitress and although she looked extremely busy she dis not let this effect how she attended to us. Fantastic.

Unnecessarily passive aggressive place. Went here twice on our trip, first night sat outside ordered from the takeaway menu, came again on our last night and suddenly they were only serving the "twice the price sit in menu" to sit where we had a few...

We enjoyed a late lunch outside with veiws of the Summer Isle. Freindly welcome and quick request to order at the bar inside if we were eating. Garlic mushrooms and langustine followed by Haddock, chips and veg. Cooked to order and beautifully presented. Thank you

It looks like a basic and rather isolated pub. But the food that came out of the kitchen was fabulous. The focus is fresh and local seafood. How fresh? The waitress explained that my dressed crab was delivered by the fisherman at 4pm and was...

Excellent food across the menu, from the scallops to steak and even the child’s portion all cooked with care and attention. The food was very tasty. The restaurant has character and makes you feel welcome even in these odd times.

We ate here twice while staying in the campsite having visited several times before. Once again we were not disappointed. Catriona and Andrew are excellent hosts and the seafood served here is absolutely delicious. We would also recommend the steak pie. The pub itself is...

As social-distancing reduces capacity booking was essential at this cosy bar to which we had been recommended. What was demonstrated was how to use good local ingredients to their best advantage. Crab, lobster, steak, fresh scampi all presented with smiling good-humour in these difficult times....

Great food as always. I would not visit if you have any concerns about COVID precautions. There are none. The bar was full of people watching sport and drinking. No staff at all wearing face coverings. No table service for drinks.

Brilliant seafood helpful friendly staff set in a beautiful location ,not expensive,during peak times always book

Well fantastic Wee Bar just opposite the Port A Bhaigh Campsite a few miles north of Achiltibuie.The food was fantastic and the scallops were biggest I have ever eaten.The rump steak with surf and turf was just what needed after a hard days walking.Had a few pints after and good craic in the pub even though we were all social distancing.Top food , great staff keep it up team Remember to book ahead as very busy

I truly believe the best scallops in the world are served here - and there's not much wrong with the lobster either. The situation is wonderful, the atmosphere convivial and the service efficient and friendly. It's a disappointment that the choice of beer isn't more interesting, but the remoteness may limit what's available. I would like to award a whole constellation of stars BUT there was a disconcerting lack of Covid precautions - a very crowded bar, unmasked staff and a bit more handling of glasses and cutlery than we'd have liked. But we'll still dream of returning.

Went up there for a family evening meal while visiting Coigach area. Due to Covid-19 pandemic related restrictions it required to book table at least two days in advance, which was not a big deal for us. During our visit food was okay but nothing extraordinary considering prices on the menu. Prawns and scallops were really nice but fish was very average and for some reason batter seemed to contain a lot of oil. Tables were quite far away from one another, while service appeared to be very nice and pleasant. Would probably come back for scallops and pint of beer again but nothing else than that.

Service was not great. Food was over priced for what we got, although tasty all the same. Nice venue.

Lovely wee place with great food and a welcoming atmosphere. Everything was delicious, including the vegetable wellington and I have a very fussy partner when it comes to vegetarian food. I had the hand-dived scallops, which were fantastic. Kids' menu was excellent and the staff were all very nice.

Excellant bar and restaurant owners couldn't have been friendlier, food was to die for, service was excellent by staff and owners alike , we cant wait to go back

Walked into the bar, which was full, no social distancing and no masks. No asking for name and contact number in case there were any infected customers. The staff were working hard but in these present times safety of customers and staff is

Simplement le meilleur Fish and Chips que j'ai mangé, pourtant je suis allé de nombreuses fois en Ecosse ! Très copieux et servi avec des "vegetables". Le poisson ultra-frais y est pour beaucoup. Il paraît que le reste de la carte est tout aussi bon... Étape indispensable si vous passez sur la magnifique péninsule de Coigach.

Voor wie houdt van verse vis en goedgevulde borden in een bruine setting: dit is een van de hidden gems in de Highlands! Doe je de North Coast 500, ga dan zeker vanuit Ullapool richting Althandu en zorg dat je aanschuift voor het diner.

Our 2nd visit to the campsite at Altandhu, the pub at the top of the hill is very cosy and the food is fantastic, lots of local seafood available including Langoustine and Lobster. The staff are ver friendly and welcoming. My wife went for the chicken and mushroom pie that was cooked fresh, this was explained at the time of order but seeing as we’re in the far north we weren’t in any rush. Both mains were thoroughly enjoyed.

Visited in October for a meal and drinks when staying in the opposite campsite. The food was AMAZING. We had the scampi which in actual fact was langoustines in batter......these and the chips were amazing but ditch the carrots, they don’t go....a small side salad would be better. The only thing that could have made our visit better and merited a fifth star would have been for the drunk local to have been made to go.

This is our second visit to this pub/restaurant and both times the food has been excellent. Friendly waitresses and locals. Worth a visit when in the area.

What a lovely little bar, it wasn't busy when we visited for dinner which was great. Had a lovely fire burning away which made it so cosy. The staff were brilliant and the menu was great. All our food choices were lovley.

We stopped by on our way to look at the Summer Isles. The bar is quite dark (not sure why they want it so dark), but the service was friendly. Our food was excellent.

Nice place with friendly staff but the steak pie was not the best and veggies were still raw. Not dog friendly so she had to stay outside.

Had a meal here last week and can't recommend it enough we both had the chicken and mushroom pie and it was exceptionally good, large portions with lovely chips and fresh vegetables. The pub is very deceptive looks like a small bungalow but is cosy and kind of rustic inside with candle lit tables, very well kept and just lovely. Our waitress was a lovely girl , so friendly. We stayed on the amazingly located campsite opposite and lived that also. Will definitely return.

Stayed in a cottage in Achiltibuie for a week and came here for dinner on the last night of our stay. A perfect evening with good food and very pleasant staff. Just disappointed we hadn’t visited earlier.

We booked to go for Sunday lunch yesterday and what a disaster. We arrived just before 2pm. The kitchen was dark the bar virtually empty and none of the restaurant table laid for meals. a man behind the bar fairly obviously wanted to ignore us. We stood around in the restaurant area for a few minutes and after the staff member ignored us left. They very obviously don't serve Sunday lunch - why the hell didn't they tell us when we phoned to book the table - we wasted many miles and much time yesterday.

Klasse Essen in behaglichem Ambiente und sehr freundlicher Bedienung.

Our favourite place in the highlands. We visit the area every year and always make sure we come here for food.. it never disappoints. Amazing food and cosy atmosphere. We love it!

Great food and atmosphere. All enjoyed the tasty seafood. The scallops melted in one's mouth. The portions were on the small size but very tasty. Book as this place gets busy!

Called in for lunch. Loved the lobster cooked perfect. Rest of the family had haddock and chips and they really enjoyed it. Would definitely call in here again.

Excelent chicken&muchroom; pie and friendly servis. Very nice and scotish interier 🙂. Near is also small lovely camp. Good for travelers on a road.

This is truly a local pub, in a charming old building, with a great deck looking over the sea. Excellent food and service.

We live in Achiltibuie, so we’ve eaten at the Fuaran lots of times (wonderful food!), but we’d never had the take-away fish supper until tonight when we had relatives staying.

Un pub où on se sent bien... S'y côtoient des habitués et des touristes... Réservation obligatoire... Un délice... La viande Angus superbe.. Les langoustines fraîches à souhait... N'hésitez pas

Had drinks and dinner. Great food, great wine and beer. Quick and friendly service. Will definitely go back

We were staying at loch Assynt for two nights, unfortunately the weather was terrible, but our host recommended we should rest here. The drive was long, but stunning, we saw at least 15 deers on our way. This pub has a really welcoming atmosphere and the food was perfect from stater to dessert. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. Our Italian friends were also really impressed with the location and the food.

Drove a long way down the single track for dinner. Well worth it. Small place with low ceilings and somewhat cramped tables. Lots of interesting stuff on the walls. Food is first-rate. My starter of creamed garlic mushrooms was terrific. The sauce was spiced just right. Watch out for the flower served on top of the mushrooms. Mine had two tiny live slugs crawling around it. The haddock mains was very fresh and came with chips and carrots. All portions are huge. Good wine list. Reasonable prices. A bit noisy inside but I enjoyed the very lively atmosphere.

We were staying in the campsite below the bar. We ate here twice. My wife had langoustines and scampi and loved them. I had two pies - a chicken and mushroom and a seafood special. Probably the best pies I've had, accompanied with good chips and lightly cooked vegetables. The room was lovely, quite dark and lit by candles. On another evening I watched the football and drank good beer. A great place.

We ate here a couple of weeks ago and were disappointed with our meals.
