Spean Bridge Hotel Restaurant in Highland

We had a lovely meal here, the vegetarian options were great - I had a sweet potato, red onion and seed tart with chips and salad and it was delicious! The interior is gorgeous, it's clean and modern yet still has old fashioned touches. I will definitely be back!

I shared a meal at this restaurant with a group of friends. We had brilliant service and food and what a laugh we had with the lovely waitress.

We went here, coming in through the back door, because there were no other options in little Spean Bridge and we would have been happy with a portion of chips at that point. Surprised to discover a quiet, little hotel restaurant that was happy to serve us. Good points first: the service was nice an competent. There was one lady having to run everything, so we had to cut her some slack for the wait, but that was completely acceptable. The menu may not look like much at first glance, but it has a good selection. Food appears to be prepared fresh and though the roasted chicken I had was dry as the desert (probably due to having waited for customers all day), the steak pie was heavenly, and the veggies and chips were very nice indeed. Considering the prices, we were extremely satisfied with what we got, both in terms of the food and in terms of the service. Now the negatives: there's really only one thing. The whole place is so run-down that it looks close to reaching its demolition date, several decades past its 80ies prime (with matching horrendous decor). Had we not come in the back door, we would have thought the place must be permanently closed. Would definitely visit again, though The other two options in Spean Bridge are pretentious money-grabs.

Everything was average at best. Not good, but definitely not memorable. The staff we very accommodating. Ultimately the place is a budget hotel.

Basic food was ok and reasonable price. Staying at the hotel - not much else in Spean Bridge ate 1 night out of 3

Un Fish&Chips volante, servito velocemente, con cortesia e dedizione. Un pesce fumante ricoperto da una classica crosta, con patatine e salsa.

Cheap and cheerful nice staff clean warm rooms . We enjoyed it in the bar and breakfast was good! We would definitely use again

Went to the commando bar for a local wake. Most disrespectful bar man ever, stopped serving us, closed bar unexpectedly at 9pm. This owner does not understand highland cuture

Stopped here on our tour for a bite to eat. It was OK but nothing out of the ordinary. Clean and well maintained. Prices reasonable.

We might have hit the place at the wrong time (4 coaches were just leaving) but this was some of the worst fish and chips I've ever had. Greasy fish, frozen chips, expensive. It was quick, only benefit. As a side note, the toilets are absolutely disgusting. Taps which didn't work, no soap, broken toilet seats. Safe to say I wont be back.

My wife and I were traveling to Loc Ness and stopped there for lunch only because of Grey Lines bus tours gave us no other option. The cashier/waitress was so rude to everyone there. We ordered our disgusting food at the cash register where the menu was attached to the counter. We then paid for our disgusting food and was told where to sit. I might have mentioned that the food was disgusting and the cashier was yelling at customers. I believe that she feels that we will never return so it’s acceptable behavior. I rarely give advice but, I will make an exception : bring a sack lunch !!

Nous nous sommes arrêtés à 14:00 juste pour manger entre deux destinations...mauvaise décision! Accueillis par Paul K. visiblement pressé et de mauvaise humeur dans un local vide, nous avons été servis en 5 mn chrono, un record. Nous avons commandé un haggis, un fish and chips et un demi poulet avec des frites. En fait, tout a été passé a la friteuse, même le haggis, je vous laisse voir la photo et c’est pour cela que cela a pris 5 mn. Repas absolument immonde et suintant l’huile, je savais bien que je n’allais pas manger gastro mais pas a ce point là. Le prix est bas mais trop cher pour ce que c’est, on peut s’y nourrir mais sans plus. Paul, en plus d’être désagréable est une personne irrespectueuse, il ne voulait pas me laisser choisir le mode de paiement avec la Visa (devise locale ou francs suisse) alors j’ai retiré la carte et payé en cash. Repas immonde, service déplorable et tables sales c’est ce qui vous attends Unique point positif, le prix..et même cela c’est trop cher

There aren't many options for food in the area, but this place worked for a quick meal. The service was quick and very nice, the food was average. Nice portion size though, although expensive. With that, every place is overly priced in the area. Things close early, so be sure to arrive no later than 8 pm

Típico restaurante de hotel de luces blancas y mantel de papel. Una vez pasado este impacto la verdad es que la comida no está mal y no es nada caro. Yo pedí Chicken & Bacon Caesar salad por £8.99 y era muy abundante.

We had a particular interest in Commando history, and being aware that the Hotel had a museum dedicated to the Commandos who trained in nearby Achnacarry during World War 2, this was the main reason for our visit. We were surprised how extensive the museum was on information relating to the Commandos. We found it very good but it would probably only appeal to those having a special interest in Commando history. We fancied a drink in the Commando bar afterwards, but were quite disappointed. The bar is completely lacking in ambience, and there is nothing conducive about it that would make most people want to stay there for a drink. We never ate here either. Imagine a rough looking bar in a deprived area of a major city, and this would describe it. The Hotel Management have certainly neglected this bar. Later on we went to the nearby Spean Bridge Railway station, now a restaurant and bar, a much nicer place for a drink.

Visited the takeaway “chippy” at the side of the hotel. Food was very poor quality and expensive for what it was. If you call yourself a “chippy” at least use real potatoes for your chips rather than frozen rubbish.

Poor food on the highway at high prices. Can give it a miss. Breakfast was awful. Not worth the money.

Not too clean expensive and poor quality. If the coaches bring unsuspecting customers here they will carry on serving awful food. Not a good chippy!

Asked for a large fish and chips when I saw what he was putting in the fryer which was about half the size of a normal large fish I questioned it and was told that was what I got, chips were soggy, rude waiter who I suspect was not fully conversant in the English language.

We walked the great Glen way and found ourselves at Span Bridge the two other eateries were full so despite it looking closed we went to the Commando bar, a bit rough around the edges and the barman looked more like a bouncer, not the friendliest of atmospheres but the food arrived quickly and was very good my steak pie with boiled potatoes and veg was lovely and the others all enjoyed their food whilst we were eating more people arrived, it seems to be a locals bar and the atmosphere became lively we were sad to leave but tired after the walk

The takeaway chips were actually nice but the man who served me was so rude and unprofessional. Try somewhere else.

After we had been turned away from a nearby restaurant this was exactly what my partner and I needed after a long day walking! She had the fish and chips and I the sweet and sour chicken, service was top notch and food highly enjoyable. Would definitely recommend!

My wife and I visited for supper and were very pleased with the food and the service. The fish n chips and the gammon special were spot on.

A pleasant restauant with excellent service. The meal was tasty, well cooked and a good helping. There was a good choice of meals available and the staff were friendly and ready to chat.

A great spot to stop or stay over.

Ci hanno accolti anche se mancava pochissimo alla chiusura e ci hanno preparato un delizioso beef burger e una zuppa del giorno! Niente di super ma era tutto chiuso e l’ambiente è stato confortevole :)

It was the first time in my life that I left a restaurant without eating.

Looks a bit run down and the bar needs updating but great wholesome food for walkers / cyclists and fantastic value. Service fine.

We were so hungry, we stopped hoping for some good fish and chips. I could not believe we were given frozen heated up chips. £16 for two portions. We ate two mouthfuls and threw the rest in the bin. It all tasted horrible.

Very tired decor and atmosphere in bar offputting. Most of the beer taps were off. Surprisingly my scampi and chips was acceptable (tho i was hungry and thirsty after a day hill walking) but previous diners' plates were left lying on tables. I will not...

By the side of the main hotel is their own fish and chip shop. Fantastic fish and chips, a bit dear but they were the best we have tased in many,many years.

Mi familia y yo estábamos en nuestro camino de regreso a nuestro campamento en Fort William desde el Lago Ness y Fort Augustus. Decidimos hacer una parada en el puente como "fish and chips" detrás de Spean todos estábamos hambrientos y tenía un rato para ir. Pedimos una porción estándar de patatas fritas para nosotros 7, que cuesta 3 libras cada 21 libras en total! Estas raciones eran pequeñas y apenas llena el agujero. Las fichas habían comprado congelados, parcialmente cocinados y luego recalentadas a la orden, haciendo de ellos en seco, soso y sin duda no fresco. Eran bastante rancio y demasiado caro. Es seguro decir que nunca volveremos aquí!

Principalmente nos detuvimos para ver el museo de comandos cambiaron. Este ha sido trasladado a una habitación más pequeña y no está abierta todo el tiempo. La recepcionista del hotel era muy servicial.

参加苏格兰高地三日游安排在这间酒店住了两晚，房间像独立的小木屋，所以很适合自驾游。房里有一张大床和一张双层床，最多可以住四个人，所以我们三个人参团比两个或四个人参团优惠，因为我们只占用一间房。床单被褥都挺干净舒服的，有风筒、热水壶、茶包和咖啡。唯一的缺点就是冲凉房去水实在太慢了，洗完澡之后还要等你洗完衣服后才把之前洗澡的水全部去掉。

34 cyclists - we had pre booked but then our plans fell apart because of a cancelled ferry from Barra. Despite us arriving en masse at 12.30am the cheerful duty manager was there to sort out everything for us and the rooms were basic but clean (and cheap). Breakfast in the morning was the full Scottish - ideal for a long day's cycle ahead of us. The hotel is competitively priced so don't look for too many frills but it's well worth the money.

+ preiswertes Essen, reichliche Auswahl, gutes dunkles Bier+ persönliche Beratung- ungemütlich (Bahnhofsatmosphäre)

Very high quality food right across the street from Spean Lodge, ideal for hikers looking to warm back up!

The food was so good we went again just to make sure. Staff couldn't do enough for us to source would definitely .recommended this place

Went here for a couple of bar meals - food was fine but nothing special - our first meal was quite nice but the second was not so good - peas had been overcooked and gammon was a bit stringy. Service was fine - it was very quiet due to the time of year.Reception area is not very welcoming - seemed a bit unloved

Hotel and cabins good food and a carry out facilityBar and hotel with tourists galour good customer service.

Food and hospitality, like the hotel, excellent. However, this year the chef seems to like a lot if salt in the food. This detracts from otherwise excellent food and is not necessary.

Lovely food and friendly staff. This hotel has been improved a lot since it changed hands and the new manager took over.

My family and I had been to the glorious Commando Memorial and decided to drop in to this establishment to view the museum and have something to eat. The museum is interesting and has various items, papers, pictures and memorabilia and is worth a visit on its own. The lunch in the hotel, and the restaurant itself are another thing. The decor is of the late 70's I would say, and reminded me of a mess room that had been forgotten about. Clean and tidy, but very outdated. The menu was very limited. Basically fish and chips or sandwiches. The fish was full of bones so had to be picked through carefully, but was cooked well and served with nice chips. The tuna sandwiches really were an eye opener. More red onion than tuna... Who the heck puts raw red onion into tuna? The taste was so overwhelming that I had to swap my fish and chips with my wife and take her sandwich. I like onion, but cook does need a telling off for this one! With more choice, less onion and a bit of a makeover, this hotel would be receiving a higher rating and a lot more guests I think.

Op advies van de receptioniste van onze camping, hier onze trouwdag gevierd. Wat hebben we heerlijk gegeten, Vriendelijke bediening en sfeervol interieur. De eigenaar wilde nog een foto ophangen van mijn 7 jarig zoontje omdat hij zich zo voorbeeldig had gedragen.

From the outside the hotel appears like many others in Scotland, well proportioned with a menu displayed enticing the hungry traveller to venture inside. Appearances however can be deceptive, how very true of this establishment. The dining area is brightly lit with tables spread well apart, very spartan decor brings canteen to mind and then the micro wave pings and after only a few minutes from the point of order your food is placed before you. Edible but only just best describes the food and having spoken to other people this seems to be the standard. As for the service all ten points of service were missed, truly appalling. Go hungry, loose weight, anything just avoid the disappointment!

We needed to find a lunch spot and didn't have a lot of time. Our lunch was okay, but unfortunately somewhat disappointing. After we ate, we found lunch facilities close by adjacent to a shop with many Scottish goods and souvenirs. It looked much cleaner and with greater variety. As others have noted, staffing is short and staff seem a bit stressed. Not recommended as there are other options close by.

We were looking for a place for a quick drink and maybe a meal. This is not somewhere to go for either. It looked deserted when we entered and it soon became apparent why. We found someone working in the bar and were told the beer machine wasn't working (!) so we couldn't have a drink. Walking back out through the restaurant we saw just one poor couple looking almost as miserable as the room itself looked. I wouldn't have been surprised to see tumbleweed rolling past. I understand it has been taken over by a Chinese tour company and it now caters for Chinese tour groups. Make what you will of that.

As a former Commando I found it a good idea to book two nights in this Commando-hotel.I visited the "museum" a few years ago and liked what a saw initially.At this moment I think slightly different. The maintenance of this hotel was ages ago. And we were the "lucky" ones as we got the special bunkhouse...The bunkhouse number 2a and 2b are the only ones which differ from all others.I suspect that these bunkhouses were the oldest storage sheds which are transformed to some kind of sleeping accommodation.I have to admit that the room was clean en the shower worked perfectly.Personally I would not advise breakfast. The beans, sausages and scrambled eggs I ordered were "nuked". The plate was extremely hot and the food was drowning in the water that came from the ingredients.The coffee was simple but okay.As there was a huge Asian party the breakfast table was empty in an eyeblink... A faster filling would have been appreciated.Overall:All accommodation is old, very old and need maintenance very urgent. To be very honest: I truly hope all Commando-regalia will find a new suitable place to be exhibited.

We went to the take out section of this restaurant and got the best Fish & Chips I've ever tasted. Prepared in front of you using the best fresh Haddock filets deep fried in a light batter and served hot. Enjoy.

This must be the only chip shop that's serving chips and fish on metal trays from a out of site kitchen frozen or oven chip were disgusting.a plate of chips which when counted was a grand amount of 10 chips at a cost of 4 pounds.fish was acceptable but again excessively priced .person who served us didn't know what day it was. Avoid this place like the plague

All other Spean Bridge restaurants were full this evening and only this one was available (now, I understand why!)Bleak atmosphere, the staff look stressed. The table was dirty and there was food stuck in the sugar on the table. The food, however, were quite correct.I do not recommend

Long day travelling, stopped to buy some chips from the 'Chippy' at the side of the Spean Bridge Hotel. The sign on the door told us to order inside, so we did. Took our chips outside to eat and we were so disappointed to open the packs and discover some nasty frozen chips! Never again. It should not be allowed to call itself a chippy!

Don't know what to say about this place really. Walked in and sat down. Wish I'd gotten right back up and left before it was too late. Most outdated and dingy place I've eaten in. Not a soul else there at 6pm. Did think that was weird. Didn't get offered a drink to begin then even though had two kids with me didn't get offered the kids menu. When I asked for it the things we asked for they didn't even have available. My curry was so watery I didn't even know what to do with it. Kids spaghetti in tomato sauce had to be drained as it was just water. Service was non existent. I honesty feel like it could have been a hotel from cludeo we were all laughing about it. Shame as we passed the hotel earlier in the day and said we would go back there for dinner and chose not to eat in glencoe. What a mistake that was!

Basic menu (only starter is soup), yet seems reasonable enough. Unfortunately it is rather too expensive for what you get. Would have expected much better quality for the money asked. If the meals had been £10 or so each, this would have been a nice cheap place to eat and therefore worth it. Sadly the prices are more like £17, for which I would really expect better. Staff friendly. Overall, all I would say it's "just about ok, go here if everywhere else is booked up".

When we first case in the restaurant it was completely empty and after sitting down we found out a lot of guests in the hotel walked through the restaurant but when the food came we were pleasantly surprised as it was pretty good. We had the vegetarian pasta, chicken curry and fish and chips.

vasta scelta dal menù, cibo molto buono e camerieri molto gentili, soprattutto uno è stato molto simpatico con il mio bimbo di 5 anni

No way. Chips are 100% frozen, and yes, fried to order. The fish is beyond anything I've had fried! I'd have had more moisture out of chewing my flip flop! £8.50 for a large fish and chips seemed steep - but worth it after a 9 hour drive and not fancying the ready meals from the Spar shop. I urge you to buy a Rustlers and bag of crisps and be content! Not even my dog wanted the fish after I gave up trying to find a bit of fish under the batter that wasn't crispy as well. No flavour what so ever. No moisture what so ever - which is surprising from something that lives in the bloody water!

the fish and chips are the best we have ever tasted i only wish it was round the corner from me service was good all round highly recomended

There's a huge business opportunity for someone to open a decent pub with good grub that welcomes dogs in Spean Bridge - especially given the number of walkers with dogs. Sadly as there isn't anywhere we had to head for Fish n Chips as takeaway. Now I've got nothing against a good chippy and was secretly looking forward to it, but sadly disappointed. Service was so slow, I thought hubby had got lost when he went in to order. When it finally arrived the fish was nice, but the chips clearly oven chips which is not acceptable for a chippy. We then had to sit and huddle under the outside umbrella to eat it, cold and starting to rain. I don't expect dogs in a smart restaurant, but when your bar has a tiled floor & plastic topped tables, why on earth can't a well behaved dog sit in the bar while we eat our chips? And if you're going to charge that much for fish and chips for God's sake at least make some decent chips!!

Limited menu but it covered all bases for the four of us. Pasta, scampi and stew with dumplings! Speedy service, good portion sizes and tasty food left us all satisfied and even the cost was very reasonable! Highly recommend!

Went with the wife and inlaws.The place looks naff but the staff seem friendly enough. Ordered fish and chips it was ok, not going to set the world a light.If ur desperate and can't get any where else then give it a try.I wouldn't rush back though if I am honest

The meal we had at this restaurant I am sorry to say was quite possibly one of our worst. We expected a cheap and cheerful, but it was not cheap and it was dismal. I ordered the lamb shanks which i can only assume was cooked previously and reheated in a microwave - I can think of no other explanation as to why it was hot on the outside, cold in the middle!!! Fish and Chips were ok, nothing special as was the pasta dish - very dull.There was only one staff member serving the bar and restaurant who unfortunately had limited english when we tried to explain the meal issue. We gave up - not his fault, he is not the cook (if there is one)

We decided on lunch at Spean Bridge whilst we were away recently, and instead of going to the Mill we went to the hotel instead. What a mistake! There was a choice of sandwiches or fish and chip type meals. We decided on the chippy option - we opted for fish and chips, chicken nuggets and chips and haggis, chips and gravy. The chips were frozen ones, the fish looked like it had been fried 4 times and the haggis was battered which wasn't expected and wasn't explained on the menu. There were quite a few people eating in the hotel, and all looked as disappointed as we did.The best thing about this restaurant was that it sold fizzy Vimto.

De nieuwe uitbaters hebben nog veel werk voor de boeg. Dit hotel werd vorig jaar overgenomen door een Roemeense familie, die zich nog aan het inwerken is in de hotelbusiness.De hotelkamer op de eerste verdieping was bij aankomst ijskoud, met aan de muur een radiator die geen warmte gaf.Het eten bij het ontbijt was voor iedereen gelijk : bonen, eieren, een worstje en een ongeïdentificeerd baksel werd op een bord voor onze neus gezet. Toast bakken was een werk van lange adem, wegens slechts één broodrooster voor alle gasten.Wel lekker eten bij het dîner, met zeer vriendelijke bediening

We arrived for lunch, so took up the Fish n Chip option, all of a sudden coaches came tumbling into the car park, within 15 minutes we where knee deep in tourists, fish was ok, chips soggie, but very very pricey, 2 people with a soft drink, destroyed £20.00, for take away???, although a nice cafe was found inside the mills, know for next time, cheers

Came here for a simple lunch stop and turned out to be the best fish and chips I've ever had in my life. They were moist, fresh, succulent and simply tasted 'out of this world'! Plus the fish was huge in size and could only share a plate with my girl friend it was that big. Also, the french fries were incredibly tasty and crispy and fresh. They supplied you as much condiments as you wanted (tar tar sauce, ketchup, etc.). Finally, the price was reasonable for what you got. I wish this place wasn't so out of the way so I can visit again. Simply amazing food !

Cosy, comfy, excellent, friendly service. Perfectly located for a stopover on our way to Skye. Many Thanks

Visited the Hotel on the first weekend of September for a drink and I must say, I do not understand what all the fuss is about. The Spean Bridge Hotel is obviously a dedicated resort based on a Fawlty Towers theme. I am somewhat concerned that other visitors have not grasped this concept. I suggest that they have never seen this classic show. There was more exposed pine than a Scandinavian sauna and the wipe-clean tablecloths brought back wonderful memories of my high school years. The chap at the front door had a smile that bordered on terrified (as I would expect, we are scary looking folk) but the creepily-inviting smile from the Eastern European man who attempted to follow me into the Ladies toilet simply proved the commitment to the theme. No hotel could do this on purpose... it must be a theme. We were extremely impressed and look forward to returning in the future.PS: The Commando memorial was actually very good and genuinely worth a visit.

Tasty food served by Eastern European waitstaff; some were limited with the English language. Pleasant surroundings and good beer.

This was a really disappointing experience. Under-staffed, unprofessional, unequipped to deal with number of tables. Overcooked steaks and over-priced for what it was. Advice: more staff and get rid of the unappetising plastic 'nappy' tablecloths

Im Gebäude befindet sich ein kleines Museum zur Geschichte der "Commandos" - es dokumentiert die Geschichte der Spezialeinheiten der British Army. Der Eintritt ist frei - der Raum ist der Öffentlichkeit zugänglich, man muss weder Gast im Hotel, noch dem Restaurant sein. Ein Besuch lohnt sich.An der Bar setzt sich der Museumsraum quasi fort - finden sich zahlreiche Bilder zu den "Commandos" gönnen sich die Einheimischen, nebst Feierabendbierchen, den ein oder anderen Snack. Im Schankraum hat die männliche Dorfjugend Poolbillard gespielt. Ein Tisch, für vier Personen, an einem Samstag, war spontan zu haben. Der Koch versteht sein Handwerk absolut. Die umfangreiche Speisekarte bietet für jeden Geldbeutel und jeden Gaumen reichlich Auswahl. Selbst Vegetarier können wählen, müssen sich nicht auf ein einziges Verlegenheitsgericht beschränken. Fazit:Hungrig sind wir ins Lokal eingefallen, äußerst satt und zufrieden haben wir es verlassen.

Stopped here for lunch on an organized tour and it was great.It is part of the Spean Hotel and apparently they use the hotel kitchen.The fish was fresh and everything was clean.Side note-the hotel public bathroom was really clean!

Called into here on route to the Isle of Skye. We were passing and noticed a sign that said "Fish & Chips" and duly followed the directions round into a car park. It wasn't a fish & chip shop at all, but a side kitchen of the Spean bridge hotel. They were fetching food through from the hotel kitchen to a shop area and serving it from aluminium kitchen trays. At this point the first impressions were not good and sadly, first impressions are usually correct. It went something like this: An eastern European immigrant with a very limited grasp of the English language would take your order. He would then pop his head around the corner and shout at the kitchen staff (also Immigrants) in another language (not Scottish/gaelic) five minutes later one of these "characters" would appear with a large aluminium mess tin and dump a load of what looked like burnt oven chips (I'll come back to this) into the tray and another immigrant would follow with another tray of fish or sausage or whatever else you might have ordered, and would dump these into another tray. The original immigrant would then pick up the chips with his hands and drop them onto a paper plate and pass them onto you.Having then been served in a slip shod manner you would exit the sub kitchen and sit outside on one of the benches to tuck into what you hoped would taste better than it looked, and you would be disappointed. What looked suspiciously like burnt oven chips, were indeed burnt oven chips. They were utterly tasteless and overcooked to the point where all the moisture had gone out of them. This lack of moisture in the chips was adequately compensated for by the sausages though. You could literally ring a quarter of a cup of grease out of them.Then there's the price......... £4.50 for a children's portion of sausage & chips. Jesus would have wept....I am now approaching the age of 47 and have travelled and eaten at a lot of places in those 47 years, and this place is by far the worst experience of professional catering that I have ever come across. It really is a disgrace. Lee DoveyAugust 2015

Set on the side of Loch Lochy with stunning views over the loch. This Hotel and restaurant has fifties style decor but a very modern approach to dining and good food. Service impeccable and food especially the fish is fresh, local and delicious. It seems to be in the middle of nowhere but many people eating here were vistors from as far as Japan and the U.S. plus us from 'over the boarder ' and of course a number of locals.

Was staying in the same lodge. Good service, friendly and welcoming staff. Veg food was good and the waiters were keen to help in suggesting food items. Had enjoyed my stay there.

This is the best restaurant in our area. The food is delicious service is impeccable atmosphere superb. My favourite restaurant

We stopped at Spean Bridge with CIE tours. We went for the fish and chips. We didn't know how to order at first and there was nobody there to tell us what to do, but eventually we asked and figured it out. Our food came out quickly and the fish and chips were excellent-not overly fried and the breading was light-they tasted healthy! Delicious compared to other fish and chips I have had. The mushy peas were also good.

Highly recommended for good food, very reasonably priced drinks, and an excellent commando history museum - which is free! Highly recommended. Visited Remembrance Weekend 2014 and made very welcome.

Das Speisenangebot hat sich seit unserem letzten Aufenthalt geändert. Die Qualität hat sich wesentlich verbessert ohne das das Preisnieveau entsprechend angehoben wurde. Der "alte" Barkeeper versieht seinen Dienst noch immer freundlich und zuvorkommend.

Probably the best Fish and Chips we had on our trip in Scotland. Service was friendly and efficient. Prices were very good.A hop, skip and a jump from the Spean Lodge B&B.

We called in late on our first day after a long journey. The food served up was overlooked and I felt that it had probably been cooked much earlier in the evening then reheated. Chips were crispy and hard all the way through and the peas were withered and a very odd colour for peas.

A lunch stop on the way to Skye - two of us had a decent meal ( baked potato and lamb salad respectively) but the other two had dreadful fish and chips. We think that they had been prepared for earlier customers ( probably in a bus party) and reheated for us - very dry, hard batter and poor fish. We'll not be back!

Don't recommend Spean Bridge Hotel Restaurant was not that good the staff did not give you time to order your food and it was not value for money.Bar meal area was bit better to order your food they had the best fish and chips that are not on the menu.

Fish and chip shop here now closes at 7.30 - even on a Saturday - forcing you into the hotel where service is slow, understaffed and food is poor quality 'pub grub'. Waited 35 mins for fish and chips. Could not recommend

We had been told that this place was " tired and getting worn out". So we were under no illusions. What was a shock was the prices. But in a location where all other places we tried required reservations, and this place had free tables. Well, actually a whole room of free tables.. Market forces are at work in some bizarre fashion. I ordered a lamb salad. Nice concept. Multi layered thing, each layer having its own dressing or vinaigrette. Not unpleasant, but I did giggle at being offered Tennants lager as an example of a local real ale. So yes - Tired and worn out. I guess, both Me and this establishment...

An intersting Commando museum in the hotel. Had bar meal as only place open in the area.Food was poor. Looked and tasted like it had been made the previous day.

Liked the friendly and helpful staff, and the excellent and generous portion of fish and chips I had.Good central location.

Cuisine lourde et peu digeste ; peu de choix ; ce n'est pas très bien cuisiné. Le problème c'est qu'il y a peu de possibilité sur le secteur. Trop cher pour ce que c'est. Se contenter de l'hébergement.

The people ,the food and the service. From the time of arrival to our departure we were given every possible welcome to a well run hotel an eatery. Thank you Robert and Glen we shall return Bruce

After journeying for 3 hours we arrived at our campsite. Saw a sign for a "chippy" at the Spean Bridge Hotel. Service was at the rear door of the main hotel. Choice of fish, jumbo sausage, black pudding or haggis. Fish did not look paricularly appetising. Black and haggis pudding consisted of slices which were deep fried. They squelched with grease and were uneatable. Sausage was slightly better. Aged "cook"/server a bit grumpy. For foreign visitors and hikers at campsites this is a really bad insult to good Scottish fare.

Was here with a bus tour and the line was pretty long and they were painstaking slow. There's only 5 items on the menu so it should be moderately quick. Once we ordered, the food came out in a reasonable time. But the system for taking the orders was almost painful. The food was good and the piece of fish they give you must come from a whale it's so big. But there was no cutlery. I had to ask for that and when I asked for ketchup and tartar sauce I was told it was on my plate. Sure enough, one tiny squeeze pack of ketchup for all those chips and one tiny squeeze pack of tartar sauce for all that fish. Staff were distracted at best and surly at worst. My wife got tired of waiting to order and went to the fish & chip stand next store. She was half done her meal by the time I was begging for just a little extra tartar sauce. I didn't have the heart to ask for more ketchup.

we enjoy whisky but this place was way too pricey. Even cheaper whisky such as Bowmore's ordinary was a ridiculous price. It made the two restaurants prices seem cheap. we won't come here again.

What a great place we appeared at by chance. Speedy and efficient service with great quality food! Not a massive menu but better having it like this so that there is a quick turnaround.Excellent fish and chips - not greasy at all!!! Old fashioned and unusual furnishing - bit of a time warp; I'd love to find out what the tourists think of it. Handled bus loads of tourists with ease inside and out.Would go back.

Stopped-off briefly in Spean Bridge and opted for the bar-menu in the Commando Bar. Though the bar area felt a bit 1980s; the humble furnishings fitted well with the lively Friday night atmosphere and the service was friendly and quick. More importantly, the fish and chips were excellent in quality and generous in portion. The fish was large and perfectly cooked with a light crispy batter. The hand-cooked chips were the business and the large serving-dish of fresh mushy peas a delight.The Guinness was also exceptionally well kept.

The hotel is a throw back from the 1980's with pine clad walls in tiny rooms. The residents lounge was so cold we were unable to sit in it. The bar staff were grubby and unfriendly, the bar was cold and unwelcoming. The food was from the chippy next door and very poor. Overall it was such a disappointment, was here a few years ago as a serving commando and its changed beyond all recognition and dramatically gone down hill...on this occasion I took my wife to reminisce, I was embarrassed and ashamed it still carries the commando name.

Had bar meal which was very nice and good value, friendly place used by locals so must be good. Bar staff very pleasant and helpful. Food basic but good quality.

Attached to The Nevis Banks Inn ... perfect in all ways Staff terrific, happy ,attentive & pleased to serve you . They delightful . Dinner was very good & flavoursome Breakfast especially the full Scotish was ... well ... filling

Stopped off for some food en route to Oban. The sign (attached) advertisng sandwiches looked a bargain but you have to look closely to get the correct prices. Anyway we went in. We came across 5 staff inside. Not one of them spoke to us or asked us if we wanted something. We waited and no one said anything so we just left. Very strange and we felt as though we were intruding. We went to the mill cafe next dor which was friendly and good value.

Ate here a few nights, and also stopped by just for a drink, good value food, ample portions, and gave us the use of their free wi-fi.

This place badly needs updating but it is surprising and full of Commando history. The curry is excellent (chef learnt his trade in the far east). Bar is cheaply priced with a good selection of whisky available. Some locals frequent the place adding to the atmosphere.
