Nice room, good dinner. Breakfast reasonable. Lovely village, ferry to islands and the other side of Loch Lomond. Interesting lounge with stuffed birds

I am not normally one to complain however we left the bar having paid £80 for 2 main courses and a child’s meal . I am utterly disappointed and in disbelief at what I have just paid for . I myself had the jerk chicken which tasted like it had been accompanied with packet rice and my husband had the duck which for £30 , he has come away and is currently cooking some toast to fill up on need I explain no more . Like I said I don’t normally complain but as a young family on our first little break away I am sure you can appreciate our disappointment at paying such a price for a meal out which consisted of a one course meal for 2 adults and a one year old .. We did contact the restaurant last week after our visit and am yet to receive a response

We had a really fantastic meal, the haggis, neeps and tatties was excellent. Lovely atmosphere. Only issue and this is a big one. I ordered the sticky toffee pudding and so did my two daughters. They ordered off the kids menu at 3 pounds each for the desert, I ordered mine from the main menu and it cost 8 pounds. All three portions arrived and were all the exact same size. In fact mine was in a larger bowl which made it look even smaller. I can understand a small price difference but not 5 pounds for the exact same desert and portion size. very disappointing which was a low point on a otherwise very good meal

The hotel is located in a good position on the banks of Loch Lomond within a conservation village. The welcome was not exactly warm and the gentleman at the reception seemed rushed and preoccupied with something else. We booked two rooms close together and called a week before to request this ( we never received the request sir ). One room was up 3 flights of stairs and the other was outside the main building in the annexe. Both cost the same but varied in terms of comfort level. One had an old tub and the other a wet room. Our room was extremely basic, old fixtures, peeling paper on the ceiling. Breakfast was your basic fare though there was a lot of variety at the buffet bar. Breakfast orders were mixed up but the staff were very accommodating and pleasant in the morning shift. We have another trip booked but will not be returning to this hotel

Party of 4...2 of us did the sunday lunch and 2 of us had light bites. The Sunday lunch was perfection! The yorkshire pudding was a dream...crunchy,light,airy...with the gravy it was an Americans idea of yorkshire pudding come true! The soup of the day was parsnip apple and the other parties enjoyed it very much. The atmosphere was perfect for our Sunday lunch,dogs and all!!

We made a reservation for 6pm but was early, happy to be let in. I had lamb loin, it was superb, the sauce was especially nice and complement the richness of the lamb, very authentic. Hubby has the king prawn pasta, again with yummy sauce. The sticky toffee pudding was lovely, warm, sticky, melt in the mouth. Felt guilty for its sweetness but well just this one time!!!! The dark chocolate was very rich not as sweet and nice too. Enjoy the dinner here. Well done.

My family and I managed to make a last minute booking on a Sunday, 1 hour before they close for lunch at 16:00. Despite the last minute nature of the booking, we didn’t feel rushed or harassed. Service was relaxed and friendly. We shared the bread and chutney starter with our children which was delicious. The pickled onions were a highlight. My wife and I both had the haggis which was incredible. Both our children enjoyed food from the kids menu. If you get the opportunity to visit, I’d recommend booking ahead.

Excellent food and great customer service. This is a lovely pub restaurant, all the basics but with some additional ‘posher’ food if that’s your thing. We went one night then booked again for valentines evening and it was lovely. The tacos were superb. The soup really tasty and the crab salad and salmon fresh and cooked beautifully. The service is good, they are happy to help but don’t hassle you. The fire, the candles and the general ambience (including the fab smell of woodsmoke) is lovely.

Stayed at the Loch Lomond Arms a few weeks back while attending a wedding in the area. We arrived early as attending a wedding however the rooms were not ready so had to wait until we returned after midnight to get our room. The room was clean, compact, had everything you would need including toiletries, tea/coffee, water etc. The bed was comfortable and I had a good nights sleep. Breakfast in the morning was ok. Service was a little slow and the continental offerings were average. We ordered some hot food and it was good. The staff were nice and provided tea/coffee when required.

Called in here as the pub looked lovely from the outside and we needed some lunch. The staff were quite slow, stood for around 10 mins (even though the pub was empty) before waiting for someone to come over and seat us down. We ordered a steak pie and soup. The soup wasn't bad, although I was told it was tomato and sweet potato, then overheard another waiter say it was ccarrot and sweet potato. My husband had the steak pie and said it was the worst thing he has ever eaten. It was very watery and the meat wasn't nice. Food was average, I wouldn't eat here again but it was ok for a drink.

Dropped in for a refreshing ale around lunch time, very polite person behind the bar informed us the restaurant was fully booked for lunch inside, but it we didn’t mind sitting outside there was plenty of room in the beer garden. As we were only after a drink and it was a warm day, sitting outside was a option. Good to see they had a couple of craft beers on tap from the local brewery. Nice place to stop off and relax for a bit while touring the area. All staff we encountered were friendly and helpful.

This used to be a lovely restaurant but the service badly lets it down now, new staff who seem uninterested in what they are supposed to be doing and actually come across very rude. A long wait to be seated even though we booked a table and about a 20 minute wait to order, it seemed chaotic even though there was lots of staff. No one checked if everything was ok and they didn’t even bother clearing the plates away or taking our order for dessert. There were lots of people at the bar for a wedding and they were right beside tables with people eating not ideal. Also if you have a food allergy I wouldn’t bother as they seem to treat it as an inconvenience and the young waitress was annoyed and then upset my son by saying he couldn’t eat anything instead of being helpful and making sure the food is safe like most other places would. It made us feel awful and completely ruined our day out. They also add a service charge to the bill which would be fine if the service was good which it certainly wasn’t will not be back here which is a shame as we previously loved it.

We called here for a late Sunday lunch as opposed to the Loch Lomond hotel which has lovely views of the loch, big mistake!My wife who suffers with gluten intolerance, so needs to be very careful with what she eats or can end up extremely ill, as usual asked if there were gluten free options available. She was quite impressed as the server produced quite an extensive gluten free menu, and she chose Steak, chips & peppercorn sauce I went for fish & chips.10 mins after we ordered my wife , who was looking forward to her meal, asked the waitress if the chips were cooked in their own fryer to make sure there was no chance of cross contamination so she said she would check. She came back and said that no, everything went into the same fryer ! I pointed out the problem with cross contamination and was told "well not everyone has the same level of reaction to gluten", we were stunned but reluctantly said just swap the chips for boiled potatoes, we were offered a free pudding ! Now this is where it gets farcical, after the waitress left I said to my wife that she better check the peppercorn sauce is glutten free.................we were then told NO, its not !! We asked to speak to the manager and saw the girl speaking to the same guy who took our order and gave us the gluten free menu & he was studying it extensively. The girl came back (the manager I guess couldn't be bothered to offer his own apology for his own cock up) told us that there had been a mix up & we had been given an out of date gluten free menu WTF!!! A new menu appeared but my wife, who by now was as starving as myself, asked just for a gluten free Sunday roast. The meals tasted ok, but the complete lack of knowledge regarding diet requirements was shocking and the attitude of the waitress regarding peoples reaction to allergies was frightening!When the bill arrived they were so embarrassed by their lack of professionalism that they didn't charge for the food, but to add insult to injury later that day my wife said that she had a reaction to gluten and was ill all night, the only answer was that the gravy on the Sunday roast had gluten in it .It would have been nice for the manager, who we had initially dealt with and took our order, had had the decency to apologise in person. We took both of the "gluten free" menus and my wife will report this incident to the celiac society but if you have any dietary requirements I would suggest giving this place a swerve!

In a beautiful building and in a lovely village setting. Unfortunately the food was terrible. Ordered a kids bread and butter starter (£3 for three small slices of bread) and sausage, mash and gravy which was actually a burger cut in half with watery stock over. Partner had chicken burger which was extremely rubbery, luckily there wasn’t much chicken though! I went for the fish and chips which was undercooked fish with oven chips.Worst of all was the dishonesty around drinks. Ordered a glass of champagne. When it arrived it was clearly Prosecco, I questioned it after trying to be told it was the ‘house champange’. Questioned again later and insisted it was Prosecco so sent half back only to be told “it’s okay, we’ll only charge you for Prosecco”. At the end questioned this with someone else to be told they would deduct it from the bill but took three separate complaints to resolve; slaps of dishonesty. To top it all off they still included the gratuity on the bill.Clearly a place that relies on its setting and lack of competition. Avoid and just drive somewhere else if in Luss!

We visited this establishment this month and were really disappointed by our visit to the pub. On the whole the staff were helpful but one member of staff with dark spiked hair who I can only assume was the manager, dominated the other staff and was extremely unpleasant and unwelcoming to multiple customers. He made us feel rather uncomfortable and felt like we were putting him out with simple questions and requests with regards to the selection of beers and the menu. When we did get to to sample the food it was very disappointing also. I would suggest driving further up the loch.

I recently dined here on a brief trip to Luss. I knew beforehand what the prices were like, but ate here because at that point in time, there were no other options.Firstly I had the breads and chutney. The bread was sourdough bread and was fairly good, but the overall presentation was absolutely bizarre. The person who had prepared it has whacked about half a pound of butter on the plate, which was still brick hard, along with some very coarsely made chutney. I was very hungry, so I ate some bread with a very tiny bit of butter and chutney.For the mains, I ate a 'Vegetable Madras' curry, but this was like no curry I have ever eaten. It did not have the consistency of a normal madras, but was instead watery, with very coarsely chopped vegetables. It was also served with lentils rather than rice, and although I found the taste of the lentils interesting, I would have much preferred rice. Again, I ate quite a lot of it, but this was more out of hunger than a compliment to the food.The only dish I could compliment was the dessert, which was a sticky toffee pudding and ice-cream. It was difficult to go wrong with this, it was good.It was the dessert and also the standard of service of the waitress, who was friendly and attentive, which made this a review three rather than two out of five. Finally, and most annoyingly of all, I could tell that the table I was sitting at had not been cleaned, as it was sticky, like a restaurant table is when it has not been cleaned in a while. This really, REALLY annoyed me. Finally, the pricing. If this meal had cost me £10 - £15 less than it did, I would not be writing this review, and to make matters worse, the restaurant automatically adds a 10% gratuity which I fundamentally disagree with, since you cannot guarantee a good experience for everyone, clearly. It was overpriced.

We enjoyed a really nice evening meal as a family of four. Service was friendly, professional and attentive from arrival. We were seated in the library, which had old fashioned charm and a relaxed ambiance. Our orders were taken and drinks served promptly. For starters we enjoyed good quality smoked salmon with cream cheese and rye bread and a very smooth chicken liver parfait. We would have ordered more starters had there been a better range to choose from, and I baulked at the thought of spending £8 for the bread basket & preserves. For main courses, fish and chips, burgers and sausages and mash were all delicious and good quality. The battered fish was fresh, tasty and in a light crisp batter. (although the mushy peas with the fish were a little meanly portioned). My daughter enjoyed a chocolate brownie for dessert. My son and I opted for sticky toffee pudding. This was the only disappointment of the evening. The toffee puddings were not very warm, rather peely-wally looking and definitely under-sauced, rendering them a little dull to eat. Portions were generous, but they need a richer recipe. Overall we were very happy and will definitely return.

Very enjoyable. The haggis was superb and the beetroot and goat cheese salad even better. Very good service too.

We dropped in for a light lunch . Good selection on menu. I had Prawn Marie Rose served on tomato bread, it was excellent, my partner had the BLT which was equally as nice. We would certainly visit again.

Welcoming and accommodating. A little pricey for breakfast but all ingredients were good quality, staff helpful and we weren’t rushed even though I think we were the last breakfast order, very satisfied would return and would recommend

We were staying at nearby Luss campsite and dined a couple of night after they had fully reopened inside. The welcome and staff in general were really helpful and friendly and we were seated in the restaurant with our dog. Good choice of dishes on the menu, with a combination of more fine dining dishes and then pub classics such as burgers and fish and chips (which I had and was absolutely excellent, proper chippy-style chips). No wine list which meant the poor waiter had to go back and forth to the bar several times to check what wines were available, but that may have been sorted since. We had a really pleasant evening there and would recommend for the food and service. Only slight downside was that we paid in cash and I guess the staff assumed that they could keep the change, when we had already covered the 10% service charge which for us came to £12, so we had to awkwardly ask to receive our change back.

Great food and beautiful place in Luss. Thoroughly enjoyed the oysters and wagu burger. Only had 1.5hrs slot over the Bank Holiday weekend but the service was quick

Came here for a quiet drink before dinner in a cottage we rented in Luss. Such a lovely atmosphere and stunning scenery behind us. We enjoyed our drinks in a marquee outside due to no drinking inside (covid restrictions) but was still comfortable and staff were very friendly. Would came back here again!

Popped in for a pint and it looked amazing inside. We sat in the garden as no alcohol can be consumed indoors yet. Log fire burning away , nice smells coming out the kitchen. If I wasn’t eating at the hotel along the road I would have definitely eaten here. The pint of Best was good though.

We found this Hotel/ Pub on the internet whilst researching for our holiday, noting they had eating pods in the garden I emailed prior to the easing of lockdown to book one, I go a great response and one was booked,We arrived 20 mins early and after parking our Motorhome in the large car park ( don’t forget to register your reg number at reception ) we were shown to our pod, it was clean and the heater was on,The food was fantastic, haggis sausage for me and corn fed chicken for my wife, a couple of drinks and everything was enjoyed,The service was excellent, food great, the Covid set up perfect, we are only in the area for 2 days so won’t have the opportunity to return this trip,I would highly recommend

Nice interior and ambiance but, rare venison was served on cold plate meaning it was cold after a few minutes; told staff who never seemed that interested and was charged a 10 percent service charge even through I complained!

We had a 'quick' 3 course lunch in the bar with our boys amid a very rainy day. The food was excellent and the service was also fab. MY husband had the haggis for a starter which was delicious and i think i would just have this if I came again. The boys and I had the mussles which were very filling and tasty.

Found this place by accident, rang them up, 30 mins and a quick dash later we were there and sat at our table. The food was excellent, oysters went down a treat, followed by 4 well chosen main courses (all served on plates), salmon, burgers and fish n chips, plus some drinks. Finished off with good deserts and great coffee.Sometimes you just have to go for it and we did and did not regret it, the staff were all fantastic and we were there for the warm glass scandal (some people), which the staff handled brilliantly.Would recommend anyone to eat here, loved it.

A great traditionally Scottish hotel. Decor really adds to it. We had a double room at the front of the hotel in the eaves. All very good except it didn’t have a walk in shower, just a bath with overhead shower attachment. Otherwise everything was great. Enjoyed a couple of meals and drinks in at the bar. A great selection of beers and gins. We stayed bed and breakfast and the menu was extensive and catered for all. Staff were pleasant and helpful throughout our stay. Felt very safe with good social distancing measures and plenty of hand sanitiser around the place. The only thing to be aware of is the 10%gratuity automatically added to meal bills, but they do state it is optional.

Visited on Sunday for a couple of afternoon drinks with my wife as we were staying at a nearby hotel.We were seated quite quickly and were given an A4 sheet of paper with drink and food menus on it. The service was very very slow and we were just about to walk out when the waitress eventually appeared with our drinks! The range of drinks available was quite poor also only having 2 bottles available Peroni or Corona and a very small amount of wine due to no delivery according to the waitress. Nearly finished our drinks we then ordered a 2nd of the same type which again took far too long to arrive.Quite disappointing.

What a lovely building! Set in such scenery!Why don’t you want custom then? Tried twice to book and also just to sit outside in the advertised beer garden for a drink. Rudely told we are fully booked. Not one person outside? No explanation no apology. Really, really cannot understand this sort of attitude in the hospitality industry. I know things are difficult for us all at the moment but seriously, do you not need the custom? Therefore I wouldn’t recommend to others or revisit. We were eating out every night so ended up travelling to other places. Now the Drovers Arms!!!! What a welcome!! What a place and brilliant food. Sorry Loch Lomond Arms you lost out on a lot of cash there !!

Came here on Friday after a long drive from Norfolk. Very accomodating, good service (although a little slow, waited 30 mins for my second drink to be asked "would you like a drink?" to which I responded "you took my order earlier". That aside, very nice ham hough terrine following by a venison burger - could do without the sweetness of a brioche bun. We had already booked for the Saturday, even better. Haggis starter (which they kindly did as a main for my wife) followed by seabass risotto (have to say the rice was a little al dente for me). Good sized portions, fortunately we were staying only a few yards away so were able to roll to our beds. Overall, a really good couple of meals. Although the ambience had been spoilt by the covid restrictions they tried everything they could to make a pleasant experience.

Had dinner here with my husband, just popped in for a quick meal in the bar. I had the roast salmon with chorizo which was delicious, nicely cooked and well balanced flavours. My husband had fish and chips which looked good. We also had pudding (sticky toffee pudding, and chocolate brownie), which were really tasty. Would recommend

The menu isn’t great. Had the £15 burger and chips, would have been ok if it was £8 because that’s all it was as worth. To charge £15 for a 4oz burger and frozen chips is a disgrace. Also to say the 10% tip is optional then add it to your bill without asking is a joke. The only plus was the staff were friendly and welcoming.

Stayed for 2 nights. The inn is in a perfect location in beautiful Luss, and you can see Loch Lomond from the front. The gardens and outside sitting area are lovely. Our room although nice enough was very small, no dressing table or chair and clean but not spotless. As we paid £195 per night for B&B (and were told this was a reduced rate) we felt straightaway that it was very overpriced. And we were annoyed that our room was not serviced after our first night - no top up of refreshments, towels, nothing. When I questioned this I was curtly told this was due to covid, which I do not understand the logic of, or we should at least have had a reduced rate to reflect this. We were brought clean towels etc after this. Our evening meal was disappointing and again overpriced and service was shambollic with very inexperienced staff. Breakfast was better. It is in a beautiful location but am not sure if this justifies the price

Was expecting great quality fresh food . But very disappointed . Looking forward to local mussels but off the menu . Scallops were fresh but the sauce let it down and the bread was stale and expensive . Both in the end had fish and chips , that was two very small pieces of fish each , couldn't hardly see any fish , most likely frozen due to the texture and appearance . Staff were excellent and beer was good

I am giving you an excellent review based on previous visits but arrived Thursday 14th November at 11:15 and it was closed. Website says open at 10:00 and opening time on door says 10:30. Several people left disappointed during my 20min seat on bench. Off to Port Bannatyne for my brunch. Can you update your opening hours on door and social media platforms.

Met up with a friend for lunch today. ALWAYS reliably happy with our meals at The Esplanade over the many years.... But today's young chef was very astute with his skills. We had *Cullen skink, the baguette was fresh and warmed....so often it is not; (it's the little things like this that make you come back,), *fish n chips, and *incredibly chunky steak pie, with a lid rising up to the ceiling I'm my opinion all 3 meals really were the best examples on the island. Well done to: *The Esplanade for keeping up the standards of quality which bring people back * The Chef * The always friendly and helpful waitress 😁 (Love the new curtains and furnishings 😁)
