Arch Inn Restaurant in Highland

Stayed Wed Sept 4 th 2024 for one night would never recommend this place our shower was full of mould so we didn’t use it, the toilet broke after 3 flushes the carpet in the room had stains all over it and looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in years. The breakfast is a very little continental and I mean little. Would advise to look elsewhere

Nous avons été bien accueillis, très bien logés. Le soir le bar attenant était très sympathique avec des musiciens, ambiance Scottish! Mais la musique ne nous a pas dérangé lorsque nous nous sommes couchés. C’était parfait!

No food anymore! And rude answer « no food served here » instead of explaining that the restaurant is closed for the moment Still nice place for a drink

Nice pub but need to get rid of the terrible singer who was on Tuesday 6th August. Absolutely terrible....apart from that, nice pub with pleasant staff

Pub typiquement Écossais ! Nous y sommes allées dans un premier temps pour manger mais on nous a expliqué qu’ils ne faisaient la cuisine puis, nous avons décidé de boire un verre. Musique à fond, impossible de se parler, il y avait quelques Écossais qui buvaient un verre et jouaient au billard, ça parlaient fort, rien d’interessant dans ce bar.

Good clean room with water views. Comfortable bed and good bathroom. Street parking out the front. No food in pub at night but good fish and chip shop just down the road. Breakfast was ok but not a lot of choice. Live music at night but that did not bother us.

Yet another great stay at our favourite hotel in Ullapool . Really friendly and welcoming young blonde girl on the reception/bar . Got checked in early and had a couple of drinks in the bar . Bed very comfy and room overall spotless . Even tho our room had a rear view it was still pleasant out the window and quiet , so had a good nights sleep. It’s still a pity but miss the place having no restaurant such a shame .! But hey staff shortages can’t be helped . We look forward to our next visit ? Don’t know when tho , as it’s pretty much full for the rest of the year .

Spent one night here, as part of our 3 week trip at Round the NC500 The positives are Very comfortable bed Hugh soft bath towels Lovely views from the hotel Brilliant evening music from R U Mac The negatives are Very small bathroom Thin walls, we could hear the tv from next door, as well as the man coughing and ‘clearing his throat’ for about 15 minutes - yuk The room smelt of feet The continental breakfast - breakfast served between 8-9. We arrived at 8.20 and there was literally nothing left. 1 croissant, some fruit salad (tinned not fresh) some packet cereals and a bit of cheese and salami. We were offered toast, and when it arrived, we had 3 pieces between us (1 and a half slices) other tables had at least 6 slices per couple. When we left we walked round to the Bothy Coffee Shop for a proper Scottish breakfast. The price - we paid £125 for the privilege.

Lovely clean & bright bedroom with beautiful views out onto the Sea. With the softest ever bed linen . Friendly girl in the bar . There is no food in this accommodation unless a continental breakfast. I would advise to book ahead to a local restaurant for dinner as it’s an exceptionally busy wee village on the NC500 route . We had difficulty getting something to eat ended up getting a takeaway in the local chip shop. You can get a cooked breakfast down the street in a local cafe from 7.30.

Was going to stay before travelling south to Dumfries for a training course, which was cancelled due to a poor weather forecast. I only got notification at around 17:30 but The Arch took my money because a few hours had passed beyond their booking ‘deadline’ (after I’d tried to do them a favour by booking direct). I’d encourage fellow islanders and visitors to Lewis to give this place a miss - given the regular occurrence of weather cancellations and travel, your money is at risk here due to their inflexible, unsympathetic greed. I would have potentially become a regular here but I’ll wild camp or sleep in the van before I’ll book here again.

Called in here for drinks when staying at Ullapool. Great pub and we suddenly realised that there was live music coming on. It was a lad playing electric accordian and singing. He was brilliant. A lively night with a good atmosphere.

Stayed 2 nights, Friday/Saturday ready to catch ferry to Stornoway on Sunday. Room very comfortable and clean, continental breakfast excellent, a fair choice. Kelly very helpful. When I booked they were still doing evening meals, but when I arrived they had stopped doing them, but Kelly, again very helpful, and told me where I could get one nearby. The only draw back was the noise on the Saturday night, please be aware if you want peace and quiet.

There is no restaurant at the Arch Inn. This has been closed for some time. We stayed for 2 nights and had to book elsewhere to eat on both nights, which was a shame. A continental breakfast was available. Bedrooms were good and comfortable and Bar was ok, shame about lack of food.

Booked to stay for two nights having been there several times in the past and always was first choice for Ullapool. Knew that they were no longer serving food but disappointed with minimal choice of 'continental' breakfast. While the rooms are still of a good standard the bar seems to have become very much 'locals only' with perfunctory service offered to guests.

The most expensive of our seven stays on the NC500 and the only one that did not offer a FULL BREAKFAST but a continental breakfast. Do not get confused with the continental breakfast you might get in Europe when on holiday, this consisted of processed ham and cheese, not dissimilar to that you might by in a packet from a supermarket. Orange juice was not fresh. On the plus side, the tea was hot. Our room overlooked the unkept smoking area with ashtrays not emptied for days and rubbish left all over the area. For the price. It felt like we were a captive audience with little regard for our pleasure or enjoyment. Sadly in western Scotland, alternatives are extremely limited.

Went here for a couple of beers when staying in Ullapool. God little pub with lots of pub atmosphere which is missing in most places these days , so if your in Ullapool and fancy a couple of beers at a very decent price for the area then this is the place for you , enjoy

Stayed one night in the hotel. The room was small but clean and staff were friendly. The view over the harbour was lovely and continental breakfast was ample. There are several restaurants close by. We didn’t eat at the Arch Inn so can’t comment on their food. Simple, clean accommodation. Only complaint is wifi didn’t reach our room on third floor so we had to connect in the breakfast room.

I stayed for one night, the room was lovely, the staff were friendly. I had a great night in the bar. Lovely continental breakfast. Superb location with a view onto the loch.

Place was dark, dingy and the unpleasant smell was surpassed only by that in the Ferry Boat Inn at the other end of Shore Street. We’ve ate in here before and the standard was pretty good, very disappointing place now.

Volevo solo segnalare che il locale non serve più cibo, ho chiamato per prenotare e hanno detto che non lo fanno più. Peccato perché aveva ottime recensioni

We had a lovely meal. The helpings were generous. The staff and atmosphere were good. Two of the party had mussels which they really enjoyed. I had steak and surf, with two of the largest prawns I have seen for a very long time. The steak was perfectly cooked. Desserts were a dream. Good toilet facilities. It would have been five stars except there is no telephone booking. We had a 45 minute wait, enough time to go to a different establishment for a drink as the bar there was full. This was outside of the main tourist season

We sort of wound up here after several other options were fully booked- on a rainy October weekday. (Table were available only early in the eve.) But turned out to have a fine meal, moderately priced, with quick service. Nice vibe etc. The gluten free fish and chips especially was amazingly good. But the moral of the story- you need to book ahead in out-of-the-way seeming Ullapool.

Although the food we had was of the usual high standard - despite it being a very limited menu, the inability to book a table… even at 6.30 when we were sitting in the bar having a drink… was not conducive to a relaxing evening. We had to sit keeping one eye on the door to see how many potential diners were coming in. Very offputting and difficult to see what the logic is for this…😵‍💫

It was a stormy November night in Ullapool and this warm bar provided a restaurant with fantastic food. My scallops & pork were excellent - the type, quality and size of scallop you only see in Scotland when the chef is getting them straight from the fisherman/diver. All washed down with a lovely pint of Belhaven Best. Thank you

Friendly staff, fair selection of ales, and very good food. The scallops were great, the curry monkfish was excellent, and the fish and chips were good (if slightly on the small side). We could have got a table in the restaurant after a 10 minute...

Arrived at bar for a beer first there was dog on the seat then they started feeding the dog with their forks the same forks that people eat with told the owner did not do nothing disgusting.

Four of us had dinner and all of us enjoyed our meals. Good menu offering something for everyone. Food was of a high standard. Bit disappointed that this year non residents can’t reserve tables for dinner. We had an hour to wait for a table...

Not allowed to book and was told call in around 7 and we will sort you out arrived 645 and was told we are full Disappointing really cannot comment on food but the booking system needs sorting take note

Locale scozzese, nel cibo e nell'arredamento. Tavoli comodi e spaziosi. Sempre meglio prenotare perché è spesso pieno. Buon cibo tradizionale,abbiamo...

I'd like to review the restaurant here, but despite my best efforts failed to get past the door. They don't take bookings. So when we turned up at 18.45 for a meal we were told they were fully booked. They start food service at 17.30,...

Booked a table 2 months ago to celebrate my 60th birthday today. Received email yesterday to confirm our reservation, just turned up at restaurant to be told "no food tonight "!. Was told by surly barman that we had been informed, this is an outright...

We had booked through Open Table a few months back and even though they are now only offering walk ins they had honoured our booking. Staff were friendly and food was very nice. Would not hesitate to eat here again if in the area.

Visited 21st August 2022. Poor service in restaurant. Food cold, staff not interested at all, still charged full price for a meal which I didn't eat as it was cold. Would not recommend.

Good service friendly pub and sensible prices. 5 of us visited and enjoyed the friendly atmosphere. Dog friendly too.

"Walk ins" only no bookings taken. Evening meal from 5.30pm. Slow service although very friendly staff. Tasty fish. Would recommend

visited as a walk in - as people have said, need to get there early. we decided to eat in the bar, same menu and nice setting. food was good, presentation needs a bit of work. venison burger. came on a plate with a burger...

All very nice, very busy even early evening. Had the scallops with pork and other half had the monkfish tails. Nice bottle of house wine brings the total to £57. No starters, no pudding, no coffee. Getting expensive to eat out eh?

My wife and I have eaten many times at the Arch Inn Restaurant. In July 2022 we introduced our sister and brother-in-law - from the USA - to this, one of our favourites in Ullapool. The experience did not disappoint! The seafood - mussels, oysters...

We popped in for dinner at the Arch Inn along our 13-day road trip through Scotland. The restaurant is first come, first serve for dinner staring at 5:30pm. We arrived at 5:35pm and were the last to get a table before they went on a...

A limited option of dinner in Ullapool post covid. This restaurant was a good option even serving fish filet not destroyed in the beer batter pot. Attendfull staff.

Popular pub with locals and tourists so need to book a table as it gets very busy at peak times. food was very good.

All our meals were very good but it was my daughter's first experience of wrangling shell-on prawns in garlic butter, and we couldn't ask for a more memorable occasion. She did brilliantly well but I have to say, with some stunning produce. Wow.

Best British food ever. Delicious fish and meat. The deserts as well. Nobody is able to tell, the British can't cook. Visit Ullapool and the Arch!

I don't understand the negative reviews. We experienced good, friendly service and ate really good food. Would definitely go again, if we can get a table.

this was a not great experience and we were not made that welcome,the drinks cost a bit more than I used to but at least they served it in the correct glass ,take note Ferry Boat Inn

Dopo aver prenotato con Opentable, abbiamo cenato in questo bel pub dall'atmosfera accogliente. Siamo stati serviti da una cameriera gentile...

Overlooking the loch this inn dining room had a pleasant outlook . Our table was kept for us and service was reasonable . We enjoyed our food and overall this was a good experience . It was a little dark . the bar area behind...

Booked through Open Table month's in advance as we were doing NC 500 for Tuesday 10th of May decided to call for a drink in the afternoon when we got there we found a note on door saying no food on Tuesdays ? Queried this...

Cold, damp and unwelcoming, smells like toilet!! Staff were very unfriendly when we wanted to come in for lunch and drinks as a group of 7. Walked in, stood around for literally 30 seconds and walked out. Terrible

Went in here twice but could only have drinks as was fully booked. Seemed a general staff shortage throughout Ullapool and beyond for restaurants and hotels resulting in reduced capacity. Enjoyed the pub though.

Cannot complain about the hotel but staff in what they call the restaurant are inexperienced & dismissive. Very limited menu & items out of stock. Booked for 8.00 & asled to leave at 8.50 as the table wss bpoked, yet others who were in before...

Good village pub that was packed out due to the football. Luckily we had made a reservation as people were being turned away and all tables were full most of the evening. Food was of a good standard (lamb and steak) and well cooked. Good...

Booked our trip to Ullapool, visiting early May 2022 in March. Advised by our B&B that you NEED to have a table booked somewhere to eat that night in advance or nothing would be available so we booked a table here at 8:45pm. Booked through...

Some standard dishes on the short menu. We had the fish and chips, nice and crispy and not too many chips. Peas had mint which wasn’t mentioned on the menu. Very rich dark chocolate tart. The chia, coconut and passion fruit pudding was more of...

We came across this bar and thought it would be nice to have some drinks on the picnic table overlooking the loch. I left my dad outside and went into the bar to order the drinks. The barman totally ignored me, even when I stood...

We came here for dinner on our North Coast 500 trip and it was a very pleasant evening. Food was tasty and fresh, I really enjoyed my courgette linguine. Lovely setting right in front of the loch and a great atmosphere. Service was friendly but...

We visited Ullapool while on the NC500. Very nice pub, local beers but were not serving food at the time. We left to find somewhere else to eat but were unsuccessful, the only other pub was full. We returned to the Arch Inn who were...

An evening meal here, limited choice on the menu which sometimes means the quality is not diluted / compromised but could also mean many other things, like recent change of chef.... Service was attentive and very pleasant by the younger aged staff members, perhaps need...

Why is this No 1 on trip advisor, because it’s fantastic. Gordon the barman is lovely, chatty and accommodating, Mike the landlord runs a tight ship and likes things ship shape. The locals are lovely and friendly. We had squid, which was amazing, we’d been...

Ayant une chambre à l'hôtel, nous avons diner sur place (pas grand chose d'autres de sympa en ville)

First class hotel. Safe and excellent staff. The food was varied and very reasonably priced. Large bar area where it was easy to be socially distanced. Rooms were very clean.

We dined here several times during our recent stay in Ullapool and had really excellent food with friendly and helpful service. The fish pie was wonderful and the vegetarian dishes equally good. The place has a very nice atmosphere and tasteful decoration. We look forward...

Arrived first night and even at 6pm all booked up inside, even for drinks only. Came back another night. Good soup starter, main Fish pie was ok. My friend asked for another steak on as had too much fat. They said all were like that...

Had a couple of days away to celebrate our anniversary. Having surveyed the menu before travelling, I was very much looking forward to tucking into oysters and mussels etc. Then received a phone call informing us that no food whatsoever was available from the hotel....

We had a lovely meal here. Book early - Ullapool and NC500 is very busy at the moment - (sept/oct 2021).

Great pub with a couple of real ale pumps and decent beer and spirits selection, food looked good and restaurant was always packed and booking is recommended everywhere in Ullapiol due to small selection of venues

Everything fairly good about this but for the sirloin steaks, wow, the quality was shocking , tuff chewy and hard to cut with a steak knife, says it all.

As always a good meal at the Arch although this time it was a bit more expensive. The Arch Whisky tasting platter is excellent.

We had originally booked in the restaurant but had to take our dog at the last minute. Although they were fully booked for the bar and restaurant they rang another guest and asked if they would swap with us which was excellent service. The food...

We stayed and eaten at the Arch Inn a few years ago, we were looking for someone to eat in Ullapool after our ferry crossing, we booked the Arch Inn as on our previous visit the food had been very good.On this occasion, we had ordered cider battered fish and chips, it arrived and was no way cider battered, it was breaded and tasted like it a mass produced product you could buy from a supermarket, our other choice was the monkfish was just ok.Staff are nice, but overall we would not return in the furure.

Wonderful restaurant wonderful food wonderful service. We had made a reservation but had a mix up with times. Fortunately the staff were able to accommodate us without too much trouble which was so very kind . The food was divine. Cullen skink,smoked salmon ,ham hock and soup of the day followed by monkfish for 3 and a GF paneese and veg. And then Cranachan, ice cream, posset and cheese and bix . Well worth travelling 487 miles from Snowdonia in Wales. Loved every minute

Starters were excellent, local smoked salmon and baked beetroot but overpriced. I see this in a lot of places though so not specific to here. Mains were very good too but not outstanding. Despite booking over 2 weeks in advance we were seated in bar area which was not ideal.

Sadly having looked forward to eating here left feeling disappointed. White wine warm. Food was acceptable but peas with my fish were over microwaved like bullets. I don’t I would return.

Prebooked for 2 nights.  Sat in both the bar and restaurant area. Service was good had Haddock chips. Large piece of fish but a little bit greasy. Shared a side of Mac and Smoked cheese which was nice.Dessert of Cranachan with honeycomb was good.. my first try of this so can't comment if great but it was tasty.. didn't get much whisky or honey flavours.. nice if you like a creamy dessert. Second night we shared Langostines which were good. The Fish pie was pretty average as was my husbands Chicken burger.  We shared the Carrot and coconut cake with  orange sorbet and walnut brittle. This was quite different and rather good. They do whisky tasting flights. Which are good value and a good way to try a few different ones. It's a 'pubby' food affair.

As it was we could only get seats in the bar but the food was really good. My husband had cullen skink and a steak whilst I had langoustines and venison. With a good selection of local gins too it made for a very pleasant evening. We would definitely eat here again if in the area.

Wow what a fantastic meal had the Monkfish in a coconut curry sauce followed by the cranachan both amazing would thoroughly recommend eating here. Lovely and helpful staff we will be back next time we are in Ullapool

My husband and I are avid foodies and I run a restaurant. The food here was just alright, decor alright, service was nice. The staff were polite and helpful. But it was expensive for what it was, we’ve had significantly better for the same prices.

When at the Arch inn i ordered to drinks and aaked if i could have them in glasses rather than the plastic ones which where for customers sitting outside which i fully understand . I was told there was a shortage of glasses but clearly there was plenty of glasses you could see under the bar. When i pointed them out and asked why all the locals where sitting with glasses i was told theyre regulars so i told the barmaid forget it .I thought all paying customers are treated equally apparantly not in the Arch Inn wont be back.

A beautiful restaurant/pub. Excellent food. We had the local langoustines and salmon to start. Followed by fish pie for dinner. All were super tasty. Great service. Really recommend

Book in advance as the restaurant is very popular.We had a wonderful meal here, we really enjoyed. We had a seat in the bar area which had a great atmosphere. Staff are fantastic, despite the restaurant/ bar being busy they did a great job, nothing was too much trouble. Food excellent, service excellent - highly recommended.

Managed to get a table in the bar area after bookiny but was still seated in a nice booth. Service from all staff was fab - they kept coming and checking everything was ok and if we wanted any more drinks etc. Had langoustines and salmon to start and then fish pie and fish and chips then cranachan for dessert!! All the food was so nice! Really good portions and very little waiting! We weren’t rushed at all and stayed for more drinks afterwards. Atmosphere was really nice and felt like being back in a pub again after so long but still felt safe too!!! Would highly recommend!

We both stayed and dined here for the night . The staff were fantastic and friendly and nothing a bother . Our meal in the evening was just great , Cullen skink the best ever and the fish & chips superb . Nice atmosphere in the restaurant with plenty space and beautiful view out the windows .I’ll leave a separate review for the hotel .

delicious outdoor drinks served by a very happy and helpful romanian waiter. Have booked to return for dinner!

We enjoyed our meal at The Arch Inn we where lucky to get a last minute table. The put itself is friendly with a wide range of drinks to choose from. The restaurant area is separate form the main bar which is nice there is a warm relaxed atmosphere in the restaurant and we where lucky enough to have a nice view of the harbour from our table. The food was very good I wouldn't go as far as to say excellent. I would recommend the Cullen Skink as a starter as it is delicious. I opted for the chicken thigh burger for my main course this was Okay but a little greasy as it was battered and deep fried. The Langoustines needed some flavour with them as they where quiet bland which was a little disappointing.

Was so glad I took the advice and booked ahead of my visit to Ullapool. We had a drink outside first to watch the harbour light changed every 4 mins, just magical. When we went in it has greaf atmosphere, romantic lighting, wonderful staff and the food was delicious. One of the best veggie dishes I have ever had. I m also GF which wasn’t a problem. Would highly recommend!!!

We had booked an outside table, which turned out to be in a quiet inner courtyard away from the road - and the view at the front of the inn, which is spectacular. We enjoyed our food: seared cod loin and a mushroom and bean burger. We were too full for pudding. We did have to wait ages to pay, but the staff were very friendly and there were simply not enough of them for the number of covers - not their fault at all.

Firstly make sure you book well in advance! We watched so many people having to be turned away on the evening we dined as it’s so popular. - Really quick and friendly service- Local seafood is beautiful - Great drinks selection - Lots of outdoor seating under cover - Option to eat in the bar or restaurant

This restaurant does have access for people with mobility issues but be sure to let them know. You need to book ahead for this restaurant. Very clean with friendly and helpful staff. The table have individual heaters which were really welcome. The service was good and efficient despite the volume of customers and the the staff took time with customers to make us feel welcome. The food was excellent and plenty off it! I would definitely recommend the Cullen Skink and the Cranachan. The freshness of all the ingredients makes all the difference. Definitely going back there!

We booked several days in advance (which was advisable) and had a lovely meal in tastefully decorated surroundings. The service was quick and friendly and the food and choice of drinks excellent. The Cullen Skink was particularly good. The B&B owner said this is the restaurant he recommends to his guests; we were just lucky to have booked it beforehand!

Excellent food, the menu is limited but you get excellent food. Nice atmosphere and good staff who are helpful but not overly so.

Delicious food, lovely atmosphere and location. Staff were friendly and the service was great. We managed to get a table with a good view of the TV for the euros quarter-final. Reasonably priced as well.

We ate in the Arch Restaurant last night although we managed to get into the bar (unreserved seating) earlier in the week. Currently all indoor and outdoor areas except the bar require booking. We enjoyed a range of food - the black pudding Scotch egg was possibly the favourite food of the week! The atmosphere was friendly and staff were very engaging. One small thing that could be improved - on entering nobody acknowledges you for a while as they’re busy at the bar or serving, possibly with several members of staff walking past before someone engages. Even an acknowledgment of ‘we’ll be with you in a moment’ would go a long way.

Just ate here as we were staying elsewhere. Comfortable, spacious dining room with some screening off of tables. Harbour side, but small windows at one end only, so no real views. Spaced-out tables don’t particularly help create a good atmosphere. Didn’t really get to see the bar area, maybe this would have been a bit more vibrant? Helpful, pleasant staff. Cod in a smoked shellfish broth was good, as was the haddock and chips. Best Cranachan we had in 2 weeks in Scotland!

We stopped off here for lunch whilst travelling the NC500 route through Ullapool. We sat on the covered terrace so we could enjoy the nice weather out the way of the wind on the front.The staff were friendly and couldn’t do enough to help, always around if you needed to catch their attention to get another drink/the bill/etc. Gutted to find out there was no lobster, so me and my partner settled on the cod loin instead, the portion wasn’t massive but was very tasty.For dessert, I had the cheese board, good selection of cheeses with a nice chutney and a few apple slices, my partner had the cheesecake which was okay.

Lovely restaurant set right on the shore. Food was delicious, the restaurant had a good atmosphere and I enjoyed the choice of craft ales. Service was first class and a special mention for Anna who helped us out with an issue with our tickets for the ferry, even though this had nothing to do with the restaurant.

Four of us had a great night. Middle of the road prices. Varied menu. Lovely salmon dish but side salad was a rip off at £3.50 for a few bits of lettuce.....nothing else, just lettuce. 30p worth from Morrison’s.

Whilst staying the night in Ullapool I booked the Arch restaurant for dinner, outside dining was all that was available but it was fine they have a raised decking area in the court yard with picnic tables and overhead heaters.The menu is varied and interesting, I had Cullen Skink which was absolutely delicious and the prices were very reasonable.The service was quick and efficient and I would definitely recommend it.

Good meal & good service - all the staff we came across seemed to be a credit to them. Need to book well ahead at present as we had booked two weeks ahead but could still only get an outside table.

We booked this restaurant having being attracted by the seafood on the menu. However, when we arrived we were informed that there was no seafood available- no langoustines , mussels, oysters, lobster or cod. Very disappointing, had we known this in advance we would have gone elsewhere. As we knew other restaurants in Ullapool would have been fully booked, we felt we could not walk out on this occasion. Cullen skink and smoked salmon for starters were good but we have had much better fish and chips and fish pie. The fish pie contained only two types or fish and was fairly basic. Having booked over a month ago we were also disappointed to be seated right in the entrance. People coming and going and standing over us while waiting to be shown to their tables did not result in a relaxing evening. The food was served quickly and while we appreciate that the restaurant was busy we had difficulty getting extra drinks. While we appreciate that these are difficult times for the hospitality business we were disappointed with our experience and would try somewhere else if visiting again.

As regular visitors to Ullapool I can emphatically state that along with the Ceilidh Place the Arch Inn is one of the best places to eat in the village. Imaginative food over the usual pub fare at a reasonable price and the staff are really friendly and helpful. It did not disappoint on our most recent visit. Its a shame that due to to Brexit they are presently finding it difficult to staff the restaurant every night, so booking is essential. It is though still a good place to go for a drink on these nights.
