Avoid is all I can say. Cheap for a reason, food is appaling. 7 of us ate here tonight. One order was wrong, chips were cold, steak cremated ,asked for it medium, & full of gristle. Buttermilk chicken greasy & tasteless & has made my daughter feel sick, just hoping it's the grease & nothing worse. Both pizzas awful. Never a lover of Wetherspoons but this was beyond awful

We’ve just had a really nice breakfast here. My husband had the traditional Scottish breakfast and enjoyed it. I ordered porridge and a bowl of fresh fruit salad and yoghurt so I could have the fresh fruit and it was beautifully fresh fruits, including strawberries, apple, banana and blueberries. Made such a nice change from the fruit syrup preserves we’ve been having at other places. The staff were also very friendly and the coffee from the automated machines, did taste like coffee.

FOOD POISONING: Two of us had the spicy feast pizza last night, and both of us began vomiting within a few hours. We have now been vomiting over 24 hours, with food poisoning. We arrived in Oban on holiday on Monday afternoon, and have been unable to get out of bed all day, vomiting every 2 hours. Lost an entire day of our holidays. Not impressed to get food poisoning.

My father, Daughter and myself decided to take a trip up to oban for the day we came to this shocking place for lunch they guy took our order and it was completely wrong so my father explained to the waitress that the guy took our order wrong when asked who it was he said it was the African guy the manager came over and said we had been charged for the food we have. He then went away and came back and said that we had to leave because we were racist! It wasn't the African comment it was the waitress that lied through her teeth I'm disgusted in their behaviour I'll never be back the food was appalling to the burgers were so small better going to the chip shop around the corner it's far better food and service I'm currently in communication with Weathersoons head office to take actions further

I don’t usually go in Wetherspoons but today when in Oban and only had just over half an hour before boarding our coach we popped in for a quick coffee. There didn’t seem to be a queue and people were pushing to get to the front to be served but I wouldn’t do that so took ages to be served. The bar staff just served anyone with a loud voice. The coffee a decaf latte and a decaf cappuccino was very good. The thing that lets this place down are the rude customers. Plenty of toilets but some not clean. Value was very good and £1.56 each.

We came in after a day trip to Oban with our young family. We ordered drinks for us and food for the children which were well priced. The app worked well and the food arrived quickly and was plentiful. The only negative was the attitude of one particular waitress who was abrupt and unnecessarily passive aggressive for no reason. She definitely had disdain for the customers eating there! Apart from that, we enjoyed watching the ferries come and go and the children left well fed.

Arriving into Oban on a damp Saturday evening I soon discovered that for a town with a huge amount of tourism, there is a distinct lack of places to eat and those that there were, had queues out of the door. I walked into this Wetherspoons and it was horrible. A huge, room, packed to the rafters with damp tourists, no atmosphere and in fact exactly what you would expect to find in a Wetherspoons on a Saturday tea time. But I needed to eat and happened to spot a vacant table and grabbed it. The queue at the bar was large but as this is not my first rodeo I opened up the Wetherspoons app and ordered myself a beer. Within moments my pint arrived with a smile even though my server was clearly having a very busy night. The food menu (also on the app) was certainly not fine dining. Burgers, fish & chips etc. All stuff that can be produced quickly and cheaply. I went with a pizza. It arrived in good time (with another beer) and was fine! For the money I was paying it delivered OK value. So even though there was nothing authentic about this place and I could have been in any town in the UK, service was good, the food was perfectly fine and the price paid reflected this. Apart from the sheer size and noise of the place, the staff were doing a great job hence. 4 stars Would I recommend? Probably not but as the last port in the storm, it did the job it had to do

Thursday 6th June visited to be told the kitchen was closing at 8pm.As we tried to order on the app all menu was off. Went to bar to try and order to be told kitchen was closed Pointed out their clock was 5 minutes fast and eventually got to order. One staff member at bar very rude and at table just turned and walked away as we spoke to them. On the Tues 4th Curry night kitchen closed at 9pm, we tried to order curry early in evening but both were not available not much good for a curry night Breakfast was very different staff efficient and breakfast very good. Won't be back to Corryvreckan.

Had two lunches at this restaurant which is right on the quayside. It has the usual Wetherspoons menu, which is cheap and cheerful but of good quality. We especially like the lunches with prosecco added when on holiday - sort of makes the occasion that little bit different. Both our lunches were enjoyable and excellent value for money.

Grote bar in de haven in het centrum van Oban, eerste avond alleen een biertje gedronken, ze hebben er heel veel verchillende biertjes aan de tap. Tweede avond ook gegeten daar, je kunt alles digitaal bestellen en betalen met een app of op de site, eten en drinken worst gebracht. Drankjes kun je ook gewoon zelf aan de bar halen. Eten was goed, heerlijke pasta en pizza hadden we. Alle ca. 20 verschillende biertjes krijg je in een glas van het biermerk zelf, goed voor mekaar hier.

Called in for food and drinks when we were in Oban for a few days.Due to Covid regulations we did have to queue on a Saturday evening, but thought if we left other places could be the same so we waited approx. Half an hour.We ordered drinks from the bar which were served quickly by a friendly bar tender.Once the food was ordered we didn’t wait very long and it arrived piping hot.The food was typical of a Wetherspoons but I really could not fault it, in fact it was the best food I have had in a Wetherspoons .The pub was very clean and tidy throughout , and the ladies were immaculate.

We visited on our trip to Oban and not being regular Wetherspoon customers were unsure what to expect. Arriving at 6.45 we found that we had to queue to enter. This was due to tables being closed for COVID and staff issues. We did not have to wait too long and we were shown to a table which was well spaced from nearby tables. We ordered a sirloin steak and Chicken Tikka, each of us having a glass of wine. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the meals and the fact the cost was under £20.Well done Wetherspoon.

First night we tried to go we were informed at the door nobody was getting in due to a shortage of staff, no food being served. Second night, had to wait around 20 mins to get seated, which was fair enough they were busy, we opted for a small fish and chips which was lovely. Third night, only had to wait around 10 mins to get in, the app wasn't working so had to order at the bar, ordered Nachos and Large Fish and Chips, had to wait over 30 mins for the food, both came at once, the Nachos were soggy and the cheese like cardboard, and the Fish looked like it had been reheated and the batter wasn't crispy.

Went in for lunch, was sat at a table that was not cleaned, the seats were stained, there was dust on the back of our seats, that looked like it hadn't been dusted for a month, same as the lights covered in dust, and the carpet looked like it also hadn't seen the hoover for a week. The food was a ok, but not as hot as it should have been, I think it was due to the waiter not knowing we're the table numbers are. We had fish and chips and a mixed grill, the mixed grill came with one mushroom and one teaspoon of peas, the fish and chips also had one teaspoon of peas. Very disappointed wished we had gone to the chippy instead.

Had a couple of drinks here and was really not impressed with the lack of hygiene standards.We managed to get a table outside and placed our order by the app.The staff seemed to be struggling with the capacity.Tables were not being cleared quick enough ( not enough staff?)Tables were not being sanitised when being cleared.Staff was taking orders at tables but not clearing them on their way back to the bar.Allowing the seagulls to descend on the leftovers.One waitress in particular had no customer service skills whatsoever, we watched her take some orders and was very abrupt especially with an elderly couple who obviously didn’t have the app to do an online order.I think they had some sort of food intolerance and was asking specifically about some ingredients.The waitress was very rude & not informative at all ( more all less verbally giving out a disclaimer) .To sum it up a very poor experience be warned about the hygiene practices.

Customers walking in "exit only doors" Customers not wearing masks. Tables not being cleaned even when we asked for it to be wiped down. Instruction on the table gives three options on how to order. One of these is to give your order at the table to a member of staff, when I asked a member of staff she advised me the only way to order was via the app. When I asked if she would be coming outside to take orders she said no then just happened to take orders from three other tables.I did order via the app (grudgingly) then we waited 30/40 minutes for the drinks to be brought.Won't be back!!

Typical as expected Wetherspoons, easy to get a seat and food and drinks really reasonable for the price. Staff were very attentive and helpful however no one at the door so no track and trace taken and lots of folk moving around with no masks not to mention the kindergarten of kids being served drinks! As mentioned you know what to expect in a Wetherspoons but a little more care would make this one you’d want to go back to.

Three of us visited yesterday for a coffee and a beer,we were not asked to sign in and there was no one on the door to ensure track and trace,people were just walking straight in as if Covid did not exist..they were also entering via the Exit Only way unchallenged, In the Fort William one last week we were stopped at the door to sign in.Customers in Oban were walking around inside with no masks and were not challenged.We.found an empty table in the outside area,it still had the previous customers' dishes and glasses on it and was therefore not clean.the staff got the order wrong , bringing my brother in law a pint of John Smiths instead of a shandy..we ordered another round which was ok but our previous empty glasses were not removed.We did observe a man collecting glasses in the hour that we were there (2pm - 3pm)but at no time did we see tables being cleaned.Covid is not to be ignored for all our sakes,not least your staff who have to deal with so many different people.We like wetherspoons (best value in Oban}...On another day we ordered 2 beers outside a popular pierside pub..the bill was £8.40..we left there and went to Wetherspoons for another 2 beers..the bill was £3.68 !! so it's not all bad at W's with a great selection of beers.I don't normally complain but Covid is still with us - a fact that wasn't too apparent on our visit.

The menu looked good, we wanted lunch but we were asked if we had booked, no, it was just a day trip, did not know the area so would not have known where to book or even if we were going to stay for any length of time? We also presumed cafe's and restaurants were desperate for business coming out of lockdown

As the guest house we stayed in did not have a breakfast service we looked for a breakfast in Oban had to be clean, tidy, warm and welcoming as well as vegan, meat lover and gluten free breakfast, this pub had everything on the tick list including a nice clean ladies and helpful staff. Breakfast was delicious at a good price. Covid secure . Would return.

You know what you’re getting at a Wetherspoons and this is no different, which is good. Nice modern building right next to the station and ferry pier. At this time you do your ordering etc via the app and get table service. No problem.

This Wetherspoons is in a great location, sat just on the bay in Oban where you can watch the boats coming and going. We stayed in Oban for two nights and visited here a couple of times, once for drinks and again for breakfast. Staff were friendly and efficient, although service was a little slow and particularly difficult when the other half asked what cask ales were on and could he try some. We got there in the end and the breakfast was really good!

The management have definitely made the best of their location during the Covid lock down with plenty of sheltered out door seating. Nice friendly atmosphere and extremely good value for money with real ale for 99 pence a pint!! When I told a friend he ask how I had got there; by car or time machine!Staff were attentive and didn't hide inside in the warm

La comida podría haber sido mejor, fui a comer y me senté y miré mi cena bajo la lámpara caliente y cinco minutos antes de que se sirviera.El desayuno era pobre, la comida estaba fría en ambas ocasiones.Decidí comer un panecillo y tocino, el panecillo estaba rancio y el tocino estaba fríoNo volvería a este restaurante la próxima vez que visite ObanBarato y Alegre. . . los estándares han caído

El esposo y los padres desayunaron (prefiero no darle a Tim Martin mi dinero) Dijeron que el desayuno cocinado tenía una buena relación calidad-precio, pero no esperes calidad, sin embargo, mamá decidió hacer una tostada sin darse cuenta de que iba en orden rotativo y que los demás estaban terminados para el tiempo de ella. llegó y a las 2. 20 en comparación con el desayuno completo 3. 49 poco caroCon todo lo dicho, no está mal, pero tampoco es genial, solo otras cucharas.

Popped in for dinner and had amazing steak frites and sticky toffee pudding. Food all arrived pretty quickly and was great quality. Well worth the visit if you are in Oban.
