The fish and ships is good but it's still fried. Place not really clean, service OK but not the most pleasant. Ideal for taking a break in a hurry.

Went in early afternoon on a Saturday, here giant TV screens showing football were forced to sit near one, after a while we asked if the sound could be turned down, no problem, it was great to talk at a normal level, the Guinness was very nice, the bar filled up with people talking, it felt very cozy friendly, ended up staying longer due to the absence of blaring TV or concert level music. The last twice I went here was at night and its far too noisy, having to shout into the ear of barstaff and there is only about six people in.

Had a quick drink on Mon 5th Sept with my husband. Lounge was closed but small recently redecorated bar was pleasant. Bar person/locals were friendly and chatty. TV was on as the new prime minister was awaited. Prices were reasonable for 2 drinks and I suspect that they had some sort of loyalty reward scheme for the regulars. All in all a pleasant hour spent here.

Called in for a pint while visiting Balloch and immediately felt welcome in this vibrant little bar. The beer was excellent and the staff and other customers were all good craic. Entertainment was provided by acoustic guitar and harmonica sessions from a variety of musicians and singers and was enjoyed by all. I would highly recommend this bar. Try it and if you don't enjoy it then (I think) you must be doing something wrong. Just go with the flow and enjoy. Cheers.
