My fiancé and I visited Dunoon on the bank holiday Sunday, 31.03.24. We recieved a very warm welcome from the owner of this lovely book shop/cafe whilst we were waiting for our room to be ready in the Argyle hotel. Unfortunately we didn’t end up staying at the hotel and headed back to Glasgow. This book shop was the only place we had a positive experience whilst in Dunoon. If they had a room here we most definitely would have stayed. Thank you for your hospitality, Khal and Dan, all the way from Manchester :)

Visited this lovely shop today and I really did not want to leave! Where I’m from, the nearest bookstore is 15miles away but even so, it’s nowhere near as cosy and personal as this place. Myself and my son really enjoyed the vast selection of books on offer & it was difficult to narrow down some choices. Customer service was excellent as well which always makes a difference. Friendly and professional. Looking forward to coming back soon 🩵

Visited a few times when Holy Loch Base was open. Loved it, and bought a lot of historical works that I read back underway. I hope to return to the town and the store some day. Store had a nice mix of 'serious' books, along with toys, cards and such. The staff was delightful. A much nicer shop than the large chain bookstores in the US.

We visited Dunoon last Sunday while on holiday in the area & although there was not a lot of places open, we came upon Bookpoint Coffee Lounge which I would suggest is a lovely place to visit. Not only do they have hundreds of books to browse through but also some lovely quirky gifts & to top it all, they serve lovely coffee & cakes. Unfortunately I did not get the name of the gentleman who served us but he was lovely, chatty & made us feel very welcome.

Visited with my wife during a weekend visit to Dunoon - the book shop is lovely, great selection and reasonably priced. The Café was largely disappointing - there's nothing I love more than a bookshop café but the coffee wasn't good and the cake tasted a little stale. Recommend the bookshop, but head somewhere else if you're looking for coffee & cake.

Stopped on our way back home for lunch. Deceiving from the outside, this pub is lovely inside. Kids really enjoyed the board games available to borrow. Food was delicious and service was attentive and caring. Highly recommend the fish and chips, the steak pie and the beef Sunday roast. For kids menu, portion are very generous so can work up to probably 12 years old.

We recently moved to Helensburgh and have been to Bintang Emas several times since we moved here, always left happy, really recommend - the menu is huge loads of choice with dishes from China, Malaysia, Thailand and more…the thing which stands out most is the flavours in the dishes we ordered, delicious and strong, and also how fresh the ingredients are and the quality of the meat and seafood - the beef and prawns especially - we love the Malaysian Curry Laksa King Prawn dish and the Malaysian Penang King Prawn Noodle, the prawns are HUGE! The soup is delicious, loads of veg, and the prawns are massive and fresh and lots of them in the soup and also a boiled egg. Also love the beef satay skewers, we always order those for starter, the beef is so tender inside and crispy outside and satay sauce delicious. The food is really good value for money, portions are big. The lady at front of house is so lovely - friendly and fun, really welcoming and chatty, always keen to chat to us and also tell us all about the restaurant and the dishes :) she always brings out lots of prawn crackers for the table and then fortune cookies at the end!
