Very nice restaurant in a great location in Lamlash. We had reservations for an outside table and it was very beautiful. The food was good but the service was extremely slow for food and drinks. The waitstaff was very young and appeared overwhelmed at times. Definitely visit if you are on Arran.

Booked an evening meal for a family of 6. The service was great, food was lovely - reasonably priced and good value for money. Appears that locals also drink/ eat here, which for us is a good sign that the atmosphere and service is relaxed and welcoming. Would recommend booking where possible, it was busy.

Visited for evening meals last week when staying in Lamlash for the week. Super staff, great menu and specials board. Really accommodating for dogs too. Best to book in advance as a popular pub. I had thai curry on both occasions- first with chicken and 2nd time with king prawns, lovely presentation and delicious. Good range of drinks at the bar, live music on our 2nd visit which was really good. Great atmosphere. We always visit for meals during our stays in Lamlash and will continue to do so. Have a great season and keep up the great work and service!

Had a lovely meal yesterday in the Pierhead Tavern. Cannot thank them enough for being so friendly and welcoming. The young man who served us was so friendly and fun and really made the visit for us. So much so we have booked in again to bring family who are visiting. We ordered from the light lunch menu which was amazing and my wee boy rated the chips and cheese five star 😂. A great value for money with food and drinks and just an all round lovely place. Toilets were very clean which was welcoming too. X

Hi we never actually went here and I’m sure it’s a fab place but we phoned to ask if they had the Scotland vs wales rugby game they replied “there’s no one in at the moment so we won’t be showing it but if you call back nearer the time we might put it on” we were stunned but went along to the fallen goat at brodick and spent the afternoon having food and drinks then watched the rugby spent well over £100 had a great time. It just seems like they couldn’t be arsed with us to be fair nothing against the place or whatever but just thought I’d write a wee review as it was a bit annoying at the time.

The service was amazing. No complaints at all. But the food on the other hand… not good at all. I had the hunter’s burger and there was one single carrot peeling in it, obviously not supposed to be there, the chicken was so dry and the flavor was non enjoyable. My friend had the chicken and haggis. The chicken wasn’t cooked properly and the cally sauce didn’t taste nor look anything like cally sauce. We also order chips and cheese as we were still hungry after not being able to eat our meals. Just looking at the waitresses face, we knew we were gonna be disappointed yet again. The waitress made eye contact with me and didn’t look proud of what she was putting down at all. The chips were black on top and the cheese was burnt. I ended up taking these off the bill as this was the last straw. Definitely not giving this place another chance!

I have been to Arran for nearly 40 years. This is the first time I have visited in 5 years. If you had said to me go to the PHT I would have said no. However we gave it a chance as we hadn’t booked anywhere this week. OMG! How a place can change. The staff were brilliant. The food was the best I have tasted on the island this time around and the pricing was good. If you want a friendly place with good food this is currently the place on Arran to be! We ate out a lot during our week holiday but this is the only place we have booked twice. If in doubt this is the place to be!!

Lovely place to eat dinner in Lamlash. The view from the Tavern is beautiful with Holy Island in the background. The staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly throughout the dinner service. The food was delicious, fresh and cooked to order. There is a public car park opposite the Tavern. The portion sizes are large and good value for money. The drinks can be expensive, but this is an island location! Staff were attentive. We will visit this Tavern again.

We love this pub, but the entertainment hired for Saturday night 29th July, was absolutely awful. A dirge laden collection of songs that actually started to empty the pub way too early. And speaking to regular visitors, Saturday entertainment has been similarly poor of late. Whoever's responsible for hiring performers, please try and get some artists that can actually entertain and bring some joy to your clientele.

Probably the nicest place I went to eat and drink while in Arran. Great atmosphere, real ales on draft, and the Saturday live music is brilliant. I had the pepperoni pizza burger and it was pretty decent, definitely not the best burger I’ve had but definitely not the worst. Food portion sizes are good, proper pub grub. Went for a drink twice and stayed to dine once. Staff are friendly, and prices are reasonable. If you go, try to go on a Saturday night as you’ll be treated to a few hours of great music.

A nice pub to stop off for a pint and some food, a good selection available from the menu, including Fish n chips, pies, pizza, burgers, pasta and curries. I opted for the Dirty fries, with tandoori chicken, mozzarella cheese and feugo taki flavour, they were nice and spicy too. My friend went for Nduja sausage pasta and we both enjoyed our food, great friendly service too.

Wow, this was a nice surprise! Pleasant atmosphere, cost pub with some people at the bar and nice restaurant with two nice ladies as waitresses. We had the green curry. It was nice and creamy, had some spuce and there were sime good vegetables and juicy chicken in it and the fish and chips. The fish had a good crunchy crust and the chips were crunchy too. The kids had cheesy chips and chips and pizza which they both loved. And then the chocolate fudge cake, that was lovely. The only thing that could have been better was the Brussels waffle. In my opinion it should have been warm. All in all I would highly recommend the Pierhead Tavern.

Ein Glücksgriff, waren dreimal dort zum Essen. Die Gerichte sind sehr lecker, die Auswahl ordentlich. Preislich liegt alles im schottischen Normalbereich, also leicht über dem deutschen Niveau. Bedienung ist sehr freundlich, die Wartezeit ziemlich kurz. Gute Getränkeauswahl auch, es gibt eine Dachterrasse oder man sitzt vor dem Pub/Restaurant oder natürlich drinnen. Reservierung wird empfohlen, da Arran nicht sooo reichlich mit Restaurants bestückt ist (etliche haben ein oder sogar zwei Tage in der Woche geschlossen). Parkplätze gibt es direkt gegenüber. Toiletten sind auch in Ordnung.

We recently visited the beautiful Isle of Arran, as our ferry back was a late one we decided to have something to eat before returning. Many places turned us away without hesitation as we didn't have a booking. But, the lovely gent behind the bar at the Pierhead Tavern said he could squeeze us in, but had reservations arriving shortly. We didn't mess about with ordering, two Fish and Chips and for me a Dirty Burger with Haggis, Black Pudding and Peppercorn Sauce. Within a few minutes our food arrived. Fish & Chips looked great but what really stood out was the Dirty Burger - it was AMAZING! So much so the others wanted a taste too! When we come back, we will visit again! Thank you so much.
