No card payments in 2025 is ludicrous. Saying they don’t have WiFi is even more ridiculous when there is full 5G on the pier instead. Must not like tourist money!

This is the place to eat seafood especially if you are in a hurry. Ready made seafood sandwiches, mussels are always on the go, in fact we were offered free tubs of half a dozen cooked mussels while we waited in the queue to place our order. We had scallops and langoustines meals with salad and dips. We were given a chitty with the order. We managed to find seats and the food was brought out to us when ready. We were at a table underneath the canvas shelter. So basically outside. We bought drinks too. Extra fresh and lots to eat. Fabulous.

Stopped at the Oban Seafood Hut to have the garlic butter scallops. They were served on a bed of lettuce leaves with fresh bread to soak up the extra garlic butter sauce. They were some of the vest scallops I’ve had and I was able to enjoy them standing outside staring out at islands and boats on the water. There was a steady stream of people but the service was fast and friendly.

We got in a stop here during our 2015 visit. My travelling companion had to find this place due to having had seafood on the dock some 20 years previous. This was the first time I had ever tried Langoustines (with the head still attached). This culinary expedition might be for some. Needless to say, all the food was very very fresh..

Delightful little seafood hut, doing fresh local produce at decent, good value prices - what could be better! Hot food such as mussels and scallops probably slightly better than the cold platter but that's a trifling detail. I would strongly recommend, that if in Oban, that you give this place a go - just remember it's more a takeaway/eat on the quayside set up rather than a sit down restaurant. Sets the standard for seaside seafood across the UK - it's going to be hard to find better!

Yes. It's a shack. No toilets, but you can find them in the ferry terminal next door. The scots do not like sharing their toilets. The oysters were huge. A dozen is too much for one person. The mussels looked good, but we had no room after oysters. They do not believe in cocktail sauce, so bring your own and your own wine too. You probably will be standing at a grubby table. But still a worthwhile experience. They close around 530p.

This was the best food I had in Scotland. The prices were unbeatable but that did not detract at all from the quality. The service was fast even though there was a big line and the workers were so friendly. There is limited seating so you may have to eat standing up but it is worth it. The highlight for me was the steamed muscles. They were so perfectly cooked and tender. The lemon butter sauce for the scallops were also so great as well. There cold sandwiches are probably the best deal for so much fresh seafood for around 5 pounds.

Fresh seafood, but could be more adventurous with the flavours or what's offered. Good considering it's made in a wee shack, could have the same in a sit down restaurant and be none the wiser.

Decided to try this based on reviews while we were in Oban. It’s OK. Seafood/street food fresh from the boat. A bit over priced. Scallops a little overcooked and little white wine taste to the mussels. Seating provided but could be better configured. Sorry to be a bit negative but other reviews seem to escalate this as the place to go. It’s quirky, that’s about it.

I had been looking forward to visiting Seafood Hut on our visit to Oban. We ordered the Smoked Salmon Sandwich, Fresh Mussels and the Seafood Platter with lobster for 2. The mussels were great, fresh and cooked well, Sandwich tasted good. Genuinely disappointed with the platter. The Scallops were good, an awful lot of mussels and only a few claws and langoustine. My main concern was the lobster which wasn’t fresh and the tail was soggy and mushy. Based on the platter my rating would have been 2 stars, however the mussels and sandwich were of good quality as were the scallops.

Oban is like a medium-sized fishing town. Corporate processing and small family businesses dominate. We were looking for a place where local seafood has been served for a long time and with unchanged recipes. This is exactly what I was looking for! Freshly prepared mussels in white wine with garlic, oysters, lobsters, crabs, you name it. Everything is fresh. Tasty and, above all, healthy. The prices are great considering the tight pockets of tourists. Yeah. full mussels for £5.90. Oysters £1.50 each. And I showed more prices in the photo. See it and you must visit it and taste it. I will definitely come back here 👍🏼🥂

If you like good coffee, don't go there for the coffee. I ordered 2 americanos that you could see the bottom of the cup. I went back to see if they could make a new one thinking they might have reused the same grounds. The worker said she could add a shot at an additional cost. £5 for 2 short americanos that tasted like dirty water!
