Ordered a guinness it was terrible tasted sour reported it. Pipes need cleaned The trainee Barmaid maggie wasnt interested charged me another pint when i asked for stella. You cant pay for food,and drinks all at once as she gets confused if you put 3 pints behind the bar. To much for her .Her attitude stinks when i says i will pay now. No go to the cash machine.. I wont be back i was a paying customer her attitude is shocking

Absolutely wonderful. Do not let the reviews put you off! The staff were friendly and approachable. They offered suggestions for our meal after our request. The atmosphere was relaxed and jovial with many groups of friends and family enjoying their meals. Food was gorgeous, proper pub grub that was fresh and tasty! Would come back to Arrochar just to visit Ben Arthur again!

Well I was a bit worried when I read the reviews but shouldn't have been because our experience was excellent. Really friendly and helpful staff. Excellent food there were eight of us and we all enjoyed - empty plates. The decor was a little dated but the view out over the loch was amazing. Will definitely come back.

Bland food and not a great menu. I had the scampi and chips and found the chip’s tasteless and the scampi was definitely not whole tail scampi as it was all the exact same size, small and round so obviously some reformed fish and not of good quality. You could not put your fork in it as it was hard and flew off the plate. The condiments were terrible as cheap sachet sauces so I could not even use the sauces to give my food some flavour. Really disappointed with the quality of food and could not think of one good thing to say about this place. Not worth the money and could not wait to leave the place.

Go here 2/3 times a year when at loch Lomond. Checked yesterday to make sure it was still open. First two reviews were bad. However decided to go today. When we went in was met by a happy bubley waitress. She informed us the steak pie was off at present as delivery was late but would be already in an hour. I am a fussy eater but went for a dressed fish which was delicious. Also family members had battered fish another had a chicken burger and the last member had Chinese chicken curry. Everyone enjoyed their meal and praised the chef. I had said to waitress that they used to do bangers and mash that I loved. She said they didn't do it anymore but I could have kids meal of susage and chips. Nothing was any bother to her. Well done great waitress

Lovely tasty little lunch. We were staying in a nearby hotel whilst visiting the Edinburgh Tattoo. We had a day without activities so walked to this gem of a lunch spot. Whilst typically Scottish as a pub there’s plenty of outdoor seating, loch side if you want it. We ordered Cajun Chicken and Chicken Curry the only abnormality was a Chinese based curry came with a Nan bread, however the meal was exceptionally tasty with very friendly and helpful staff. If you’re hiking nearby or just passing through Arrochar a very tasty and worthwhile lunch stop.

Popped in for a few well deserved drinks after a very hot and sweaty climb up The Cobbler. A nice old fashioned pub with a mix of locals and tourists. Sat outside with gorgeous views, there's a bit of building work going on but will be stunning when finished. No issues at all with the service, just a shame we weren't in the area long enough to try the food which looked like good solid pub grub.

Horrible staff who were very rude. No ice for our drinks which is absolutely embarrassing. We were a family of 11 staying in Arrochar for the week and certainly will not be returning to this dive!! We heard a few people complain about their food and to be honest it looked terrible however I can’t comment as we never tried anything. Unfortunately due to the rude staff this pub lost out on ALOT of money from us as we drink and eat out every night when we are together. There is far better places to eat and drink close by so I would strongly advise going elsewhere and not waste your time and money here. I hope the owner looks at the number of reviews regarding the rude staff and does something about it!! If I could give a zero I would have!

This is a cosy little place , food was standard, however a big let down was the rudeness of two members of staff, who actually sniggered openly, we finished our food and went into the other room for drinks , we were yelled at from across the room that we couldn't do that, we had to pay in the room we ate in, as the other room was a bar and same staff serving in eating place we did not think that would be a problem, if the member of staff had politely said excuse me , you have to pay at this side for food and drinks you had already that would have been fine, certainly not a way to talk to customers, they could do with staff training. A truly horrible experience.

Called in here as it was near to our cottage and I had read positive reviews. We went in the back room but were asked to move to the front because we had the dog which was fine. The back room has lovely views but people seemed to be sitting facing the window and it lacked atmosphere. In the front bar there was us, then two lads playing pool and another, asleep at the table. Once they left, it was just us looking out onto a busy road. Again no atmosphere. We decided to eat elsewhere.

I have never written a negative review, however we attempted to make a reservation for food and we're told you could not make reservations. Although when we turned up and sat down at an empty seat we were approached by a member of staff who quite abruptly said this was reserved and walked away, there was no attempt at asking if we wanted to wait or given any other option. I am very confused can you or can't you reserve.

We went to this pub as it was nearby but was not expecting it to be as fabulous as it was. From the outside it doesn't look much but when you go inside there is a panoramic window overlooking Loch Long and the iced capped Ben Arthur mountain. They have a raised up platform with tables and chairs so you can look at the Loch whilst you're drinking and eating. The pub looks like it's a time warp from the 70s but I think that this just adds to its charm... modernising it would spoil it. The food is also 10/10, I had a cajun wrap with chips which was delicious and my husband has a sausage and steak pie which he also said was lovely. Service very good too. The price was also very reasonable and not very expensive. They are currently renovating the outside space at the moment but I'm sure it will be spectacular when it's finished.

We really enjoyed it and would definitely come back when we’re in the area again.

We stayed for one night (planned) during our cycling holiday. The room was clean if a little warm due to the hot weather. The staff were absolutely top drawer, very friendly and welcoming, from the lady on reception who booked us in, through to the bar staff who looked after us and served great cold beer and lovely fresh fish and chips. We’d requested quite an early breakfast and it was no trouble at all, arriving on time and with a friendly smile. The breakfast was superb, all freshly cooked to order, it arrived hot and perfectly cooked. Lovely place that was just what we were looking for. The views across the bay are fabulous too, from diving sea birds to wading herons. All good but it’s the staff who really make this place. We will be back

Whilst visiting Scotland we stumbled upon this little pub whilst driving through Arrochar. We were 30 miles away from our guesthouse so decided to stay for a drink and food. There is parking to the rear with outside seating overlooking Loch Long. We ordered the Cajun chicken burger and the bbq pulled pork wrap. Prices were extremely reasonable and cheaper than anywhere else we had seen. The food was nicely presented and so tasty we decided that the next night we would make the 60 mile round trip to eat there again. If we're ever near here again we most definitely will be back. 100% recommended.

A brief stop here for warm drinks. Wanted a coffee, but I was told there was none as machine was broken. We both ordered tea, then after we had it, I heard other customers being told they could have coffee – instant. That would have...

The service was great and the meals excellent. The outdoor dining option was available but not used due to the weather.

Such a beautiful location with lovely staff but unfortunately the worst meal ever. If a chef cannot make macaroni then it's a big no from us. Pasta and water would have been more apt. Feel sorry for the waitresses working there having to serve such bland inedible food. We are not complainers but felt the need to. The waitresses were so lovely and engaging but even they could not make up for the inedible food. Will definitely not return

We stopped here on a cold and very windy day. Cafe is a bit small, but the cakes are scrumptious and the hot chocolate was perfectly chocolatey, delicious and warming which was just what was needed. Coffee and tea also was great. The two ladies who run the cafe are lovely and bake some really delicious treats. They have a small shop too full of pretty stuff. Will definitely be coming back here next time I'm in Inveraray.

Staff more interested in playing darts than serving customers. The food was average, dont waste your time and money here, there are plenty of outlets to choose from that will welcome your custom

Great hotel with average size rooms that are very well equipped with everything you could want or need; double bed, small table and chair suitable for a laptop, a kettle with selection of tea and coffee, an iron, a decent flat tv mounted on the wall that is compatible my mobile casting, coffee table with several chairs etc. The bathroom is also decent with a good shower. Plenty of power sockets and usb power too. The room was hot when I arrived but I was able to turn down the heating and it got pleasantly cool 😎 Rare these days. The free wifi is also good and fast. Most rooms seem to face the Loch/Clyde so a good view is almost assured. The restaurant is popular and seems to attract customers on its own, which isn't surprising as the food is an excellent pub-style offering at very reasonable prices.
