The Plough Inn in Highland

A welcome pit stop on a circular walk with great service and a lovely beer garden. Friendly staff and really good Covid precautions.

Stopped here for a quick pub dinner and a couple of pints. The beer garden was nice and the food was good for the pub, especially the butchers lamb burger with mint yogurt and chips. Good ping good grub in a lovely village setting.

Traditional scottish pub. Very cosy. Great bar meals. Felt like family . This is a fab wee place not to be missed on your visit to the black isle. We had such a great time.

This is an excellent establishment, that offers good pub grub and great choice of beer. Callum is a perfect host and makes you feel very welcome in this cosy pub.

Fantastic ancient pub with more modern restaurant. Doggie friendly bar with original fittings and a great range of beers at reasonable prices. Callum your host is a friendly and knowledgeable chap who gives an attentive & warm welcome. Large beer garden outside. A must visit in Rosemarkie.

Perhaps the Plough Inn is struggling balancing income, cost and investment in this Covid-19 world. It’s only a very small pub and we were encouraged to sit in the beer garden only, socially distant from others, beer quality was good especially the local Cromarty Happy Chappie but they food selection was “basket fair” and if you can deep fry it, it was on the limited menu will all deep fried options £7.50. Shame as a touch of investment even with a limited menu would have been better and as we all look to keep ourselves hand sanitised, the toilets could do with some TLC.

Very happy customers after our visit to the Plough on Sunday evening. Sat in the cosy public bar and enjoyed a delicious home-made macaroni and a scampi, chips and peas! A great new menu with a choice to suit everyone, hearty portions too and great value for money! Great service, great food and a great atmosphere. A must try whilst on the Black Isle!

This place is a hidden gem! Stopped for an afternoon drink & snack after dolphin/seal watching. The grub is amazing! We only all had starters but wow, they were delicious!Had Brie wedges, Haggis bon-bons, Chicken goujons and Garlic Mushrooms between us, delicious! Would never have put deep fried battered haggis with sweet chilli sauce, but was really delicious.Staff really friendly and welcoming. Really worth a try.

Arrived in Rosemarkie and went to the plough. It looked shut from the outside. The bar itself is pretty small but is warm welcoming and friendly. The food is amazing and after finishing out lunch we were looking forward to eating there again. I would highly recommend coming here for food.

Didn’t eat as I was in a self catering close by but they had decent vegan options and the Chef was very helpful and friendly.Small pub and maybe a bit tired but goodness, what an exceptionally friendly place.Visited a few times and felt like a local. You can’t buy a fantastic atmosphere like this place has!

This rather small pub was a stones throw from a cottage we had rented in the village. It was an absolute please to frequent the staff were lovely and helpful the selection of drinks was amazing. There is a Bistro food bar attached however we did not use this. All in all a really nice place to go whilst on holiday as with all of this area you are going to be made welcome by the local population.

They make you feel at home, the drinks and food are good and reasonably priced Colum is a great bartender.

The pub lived up to our expectations during a mid week stop at lunch time. The Bar tender had only been in place for a couple of weeks but did his very best to tell us of the history of the pub.How the place that served the food can call itself a restaurant beggars belief. After waiting over 30 minutes for a simple sandwich of ham and cheese we were eventually given bread that was not buttered, cheese that was obviously from a bag of grated cheese and ham that was of the cheapest reconstituted type ever available plus a black hair inside my cheese sandwich.By all means pop into the pub but I would steer clear of the place that murders food.This place needs refurbishing and serving a menu that respects its customers

Not much to say for this Inn that has been there for a few years or so, it could do with an upgrade but we all need that. It is known as a lively place at night for those who wonder in the nigh air

After sitting in the rather scruffy beer garden on picnic bench which looked like was on its last legs we decided to risk dinner as one of the few places we cd take our dog. Was told on arrival that our table was bring prepared. Told to go through to restaurant after a couple of mins to find cracked formica table had been wiped as was still wet!! Every Starter incl soup was off menu - battered mushrooms was all that remained. We then tried to get Cromarty crusty bread with olive oil and balsamic. Coped when told there was no balsamic but gave up when told Cromarty bread also finished and offered sliced white bread with our oil!!!! Eventually my fish and chips arrived - batter under done and peas weird!! Asked for tartare sauce and may as well have asked for crown jewels. White Wine was warm and after complaining was replaced with another glass of warm wine!! People sitting around us having similar experience - reminded me of Faulty Towers. Very scruffy pub and cannot believe these type of places still exist. AVOID AT ALL COST.

Rightio, I'm not one to complain and moan on this site at all. There were some really good things about the Plough and there were some really not good things.We'll start with the former;Ok, so we had a table booked for 7 o'clock, we got there just after 6pm we had a couple of drinks, sat outside in the beautiful beer Garden, loved the bar and general layout of the place, service was awesome, the beer was awesome. So far so good.However, as said we had booked a table in the morning for dinner at 7, we went through to the dining room, where the waitress just said to find somewhere and then went through everything they didn't have on the menu because they had been busy (No problem with that, places get busy) however, we sat at a table, which hadn't been wiped, even when our order was taken and she could see the table was filthy, it still wasn't cleaned. The food was lovely when it came, but then another wierd thing happened when we asked for another drink, we were told we had to pay for that in the bar seperate from the food, which we did, they had WiFi issues and the card payment took an age (I get things can be difficult due to the pubs remoteness)This place was frustrating because it does so many of the hard things right (good beer garden, friendly ambience, nice food, great bar service) and so many of the simple things horribly wrong, wiping tables, making sure that people can pay simply (trust me, people will spend more)

This is so delicious . males that will bring your test back . i love how they cook their meals and how they serve their services.

We were shown into a very shabby dining room. Service was not good. Food was awful seemed to have come from packets or tins and Batter on Chicken was not cooked. When we told the waitress it was a shrug of the shoulders. Needs a good sort oout.

Dog friendly Local. Very pet friendly. The Pub has a nice local atmosphere We went on a Friday night so the pub was fairly busy. The food was traditional pub fair well made. The fish and chips was good as was the mac and cheese, recommend.

Parking at Chanonry Point to see the dolphins we walked along the shore to Rosemarkie with our two dogs and came across The Plough Inn. I asked the young lady behind the bar if I could bring the dogs in and the response was great, she brought them biscuits and a bowl of water. Overall it was very pleasant.

We were staying locally and visited these premises for a late lunch. An excellent menu with plenty of choices( for children too!) Staff very friendly and good home cooked pub food!! A very pleasant end to a strenuous day with two young children(3 and 6)!!

This was the only pub in the lil village if Rosemarkie. I met some wonderful people here last june and still in contact with them! The food is sooooo good!!! And you have to..HAVE TO!!!! get the deep fried brie. It is heaven. Spent a few days in Rosemarkie and made sure i went here everyday.

Have been here numerous times and have always loved it . But this time we visited between Christmas and new year . The pavement outside the front door was littered with cigarette stubs and rubbish and dirty glasses sitting on the bench . Inside the welcome was warm as always but wow we were shocked at how rundown it was . Wood burning stove door was smashed and a small heater was insitu . We saw two other couples come in look about and then leave, both visitors to the area .We live in the area but were sorely disappointed.

We stumbled onto this place by chance after an unsuccessful dolphin watch at nearby Chanonry Point (got the tides and our timing wrong) so this pub turned out to be the thrill of the day - and it was so unexpected, because from outside it looks so unassuming, yet once through the door we discovered a twinkling palace with some of the best fish and chips we've ever tasted!

After taking the walk to the Fairy Pools (there’s access to the path just behind this establishment), we stopped at the Plough Inn for a tasty lunch of roast beef and fixings. Services wasn’t the fastest we’ve ever experienced, especially considering that there was only one other group in the restaurant and they had already received their food, but the staff was charming. We ordered toffee pudding for desert, since apparently the only place in the world you can get decent toffee pudding is in Scotland; it was quite good.

Visited this evening,place was empty we were the only diners.Waitress friendly and helpful.Starters were ok and well received. Things went downhill from then, one of our party had ordered salmon,it arrived not cooked and ? still frozen in the middle. It was returned quite quickly after I suspect given a blast in the microwave.,it remained uneaten. Puddings the cheesecake Wes a slimey gooey mess with rather a strange taste and both remained uneaten. As you might guess we won't be back. No

We walked down to the pub from the caravan park and deserved our beer stop. The pub had hand pulled ales from the local Cromarty brewery - we didn't try the food as we were heading back to our camper to cook tea. Ales well kept, and the pub had a very friendly atmosphere.

We stopped by chance for lunch before walking around the Fairy Glen walk. Great food and warm welcome

Very friendly local pub we visited a couple of times with the kids. Small and cosy with a reasonable beer selection and very friendly staff. Also has a good number of tables in the back for food, which was equally nice. Watch out for the portions for the kids, they are very big.

This is our local and went for dinner last night. Staff are lovely and friendly. Food is excellent, fish and chips were cooked to perfection. Very good :)

On a very wet October afternoon we stopped in past here whilst out walking dog! Was made to feel very welcome by all decided to have a snack. The chicken started and the sharing platter were both excellent! Well worth a visit!

My wife and I had an early supper, at 4pm on my birthday. We were seated by a really nice young lady in the lower restaurant area which is below another small bar away from the main bar.

Abbiamo cenato due volte in questo bel pub antico. Il menu è classico scozzese con qualche tocco di "modernità". I prezzi sono molto buoni e il locale ristorante è arredato come fosse una sala privata.

Called in a couple of times whilst staying on the nearby campsite. Very welcoming and friendly chatty staff, some good beers and food. What's not to like on a windy cold day !

What a lovely traditional and amazingly friendly pub this is. The bar is stunning and obviously very old. This is why I love rural Scotland. We went back three times during our visit. Natalia looked after us and our two wee dogs (A Tibetan Terrier and a Westie). They loved young Natalia to bits. She was the most attentive and caring person of any hostelry we have ever visited. The chef is a gentleman and superb cook. In fact all the staff and locals were welcoming. This is a wonderful old pub with modernised rear lounges but it is truly what Scotland is all about! We will definitely be back! Thank you for your wonderful service.

The Plough Inn is barely average. Stopped in for some dinner as handy to where we were staying. Service was half hearted whilst the food was poor standard and value (fish batter not cooked and gammon steak hard fired). Gents toilet was in dire need of cleaning. The whole place looked like it needed a good clean being honest. And none of the staff seemed that bothered about any of it. Shame.

Stopped of here for a late quick pub lunch. The young Polish waitress went out of her way to make both us and our dog welcome. The food was of a good standard and delivered piping hot. I would definitely recommend this place as worthy of a stop. We will be back.

Even lekker een glaasje in een typische pub. Vriendelijke bediening en even kunnen zitten. Interieur niet nieuw maar wat maak dat uit? Tenslotte gaat het in een pub om het drankje.

Sono capitata in questo pub totalmente per caso e me ne sono innamorata!Il locale è all’interno di questo edificio storico risalente al diciassettesimo secolo e a vederlo da fuori sembra quasi finto. I ragazzi che lo gestiscono sono cordiali e precisi e il cibo e’ Scottish a tutti gli effetti! Ho assaggiato la zuppa del giorno e un piatto leggero tipico (patate con topping) che mi ha saziato a prezzi decisamente moderati. Questo locale mi ha incantata, da provare senza dubbio.

A great find on a blustery day. Very welcoming to us and our two dogs. Great selection menu for everyone including veggie. Great portion sizes and food arrived quickly. Desserts were amazing especially the mars bar cheesecake.

This pub has been serving food and drink for over 300 years and the building hasn't got many straight lines! The pub food we had was good (check out the cheesecake of the day) and the service prompt and friendly.

Tonight was our final night up near Inverness on holiday and we have been searching for a dog friendly pub nearby.

Had a lovely meal tonight with my family and dog. We sat in the lounge area and the staff were so friendly and helpful. The food was amazing, loved the steak and ale pie & homemade sticky toffee pudding. Place was clean and tidy, well worth a visit.

Small restaurant at the back of the Plough, there are steps to go down to the restaurant and the toilets are up steep stairs. Traditional pub grub, generous portions and always tasty. Their burgers are delicious as is the cheesecake!

Good food, good service, good value. The Plough looks run down from the outside but there is a pleasant eating area reached through the bar. There are quite a few steps to reach it though which would make access difficult for those with mobility issues. Four of us agreed that the fish and chips and home made burgers were excellent and the sharing platter was the best we'd had. The waitress was very pleasant, friendly and efficient. We're disappointed that we only had time to eat there once.

A very small traditional bar with a restaurant to the back a little gem for anyone looking for something to eat, and there's no need to book. Fabulous food, the burgers are definitely worth a try homemade and very tasty but save some room to try the homemade chocolate brownie sundae.

Went to the crofters and they said sorry we are busy but try the plough inn! Well what can I say, one of the best pub grub we’ve all had in years. Staff lovely and food was amazing. If your near buy try this place

Ordered a bean burger and was served one of the driest, tasteless meals in along time. Burger was a dry stodge served on a dry brioch roll with a basic dry salad. No dressing at all. My mum had fish which she said was very nice. We were served by a lovely friendly young girl. More effort for vegetarian/vegan guests definately required. A shame but I wont be rushing back.

Staying on campsite, easy walk. Called ahead to check full menu due to previous review. What a warm friendly welcome from both staff and locals, makes you instantly feel comfortable. Three sections we ate in the middle with our dog. Craft local beer on tap, fab, we had fish and chips, fresh fish in a very light batter, loved the beer and food. Good selection of food. Will be back.

A good place for lunch or dinner. A bit loud on the weekends late at night. I had the fish n chips. Very good.

Nice attractive pub serving food and good Happy Chappy beer.. Interesting to hear others' favourable comments about the food. We went to the Plough last Monday and found a 'restricted' menu which we went along with as Monday is the chef's day off and we had to eat somewhere.... however...the macaroni cheese was actually AWFUL, overcooked (pre-cooked?) pasta in a white sauce with not a hint of cheese `apart from the sprinkling of cheddar on top. Couldn't get it down, just ate the raggle of frozen chips and salad leaves and left, picked up a chicken breast from the chippy on the way home. Even on the chef's day off the food shouldn't be this bad. The manager or chef should take command of quality and decide if serving food on a Monday is really playing fair with customers of the Plough.

Lovely local pub with a great beer and a wide range of whiskies. Honest pub food and friendly staff. You can even enjoy battered haggis.

We stopped here for lunch during our tour of the Black Isle. The Plough Inn is very old, built in 1691, and has a lot of character, as you’d expect.

Great local pub. Close to chanory point. Friendly staff and a great welcome. Food is fantastic. Big portions. Excellent prices. Good parking. Would highly recommend this place. Thanks

My husband and I went to this lovely pub whilst staying at the local caravan site. The site manager recommended it to us as they allow dogs.

We visited The Plough Inn when staying at nearby Fortrose. We called in for a drink and looked at the menu and decided to return the following evening for dinner.

with just with my wife and myself we decided to have Christmas lunch and found a little gem in the black isle arrived 1230 well combed by our host (Janet) showed to our table

Visited the Plough last Friday evening for family meal. It came highly recommended by a friend of my daughter. Sad to say we were very disappointed with our whole experience. We had to wait for our food, and when it came out some of it was cold and not very tasty. There isn't a lot of vegetarian choice either so my daughter ended up with a plate of chips. We ordered coffee after our meal which also arrived cold!

Very polite staff when I called to make the booking , again the staff was very polite and welcoming on...

Found the Plough Inn by chance while staying in Cromarty. So glad we did. Excellent food and excellent, friendly and...

First ever visit to the Plough. Definitely won't be the last. Its a quant little pub with a big heart...

Excellent family meal, warm and friendly. Good value for money. Made a real effort to accommodate a small child with...

On our visits to Rowan Cottage , Rosemarkie, we always eat at the Plough Inn across the road as it...

We tried to find last minute a place to eat on a Saturday night in October half-term. We parked across...

The starters were very nice.The main course ,salmon very nice,the presentation was poor.The ladies toilet needs attention.

We spent some time in the Fairy Glen down the road. We popped in and had a great meal. I had the steak pie, and there was so much, I couldn't finish it all. The puddings were also excellent and large enough to share.

From the outside this pub looks like a tiny house, which is what made us notice it. Inside it's much larger than it looks, with a traditional pub space and seperate restaurant. The food was generous in size and tasty- my burger was very well seasoned and my partner's pasta tasty. The lad who served us was friendly but obviously new- nothing wrong with that though.Would recommend for a fairly priced and tasty meal.

Just used the toilets and had a diet cola in the beer garden.But the bar man was nice, the toilet clean, the cola cold and reasonable priced.Had to drink it in the beer garden as it was sooo spooky inside!

Great lunch today, fish and chips - lovely fish with crunchy batter, came with salad, tartar sauce and slice of lemon. Good portion size. Environment comfortable and cosy. Staff really helpful and friendly. Good menu choices for lunch... was hard to decide! Just have to try other things next time! Coffee good too. Definately worth visiting. Maybe combine with visit to beach or walk in the nearby Fairy Glen

A great bunch running a great bar serving week kept beer in a traditional pub environment with a very pleasant beer garden for a sunny day.

Decided to drop in for lunch .... Lovely meal, nice staff. Large car park, which has a path that leads to the beach. Great for friends, family, and the dog(s) ....

So happy to have this place so close to the car park from the Glen! After walking the Fairy Glen it was so nice to have this quaint place to have some food! I tried my first IronBru it is like a Creme and Orange soda combined! Really tasty and refreshing and my new favorite soda! I had the cheese fries! the cheese was so fresh and delicious and the chips were delicious! it really it the spot at the end of a long hike! I don't know what the other people on the tour ate but I heard NO complaints!! And it appeared as though the locals enjoyed coming there! A really nice place to eat!!

De passage dans la région à l'heure du déjeuner nous avons poussée la porte de cette vieille auberge pour voir le menu. Le serveur était étonné que l'on puisse demander le menu avant de s’attabler.Mes narines on été titillées par une odeur de vieille friture que je suis ressortie bien vite.Je suis peut être passé à côté d'un bon repas??? mais manger avec cette odeur n'est pas pour moi. Peut être faudrait-il changer les filtres plus souvent.

Not a good evening at all. Started with the barman (who appeared to have had a sense of humour bypass) failing to mange to pour a beer and not understanding what "Is it dead, then?" meant. Continued with my chum's order of haddock, home made tartare sauce, chips ..." (as the menu stated) not having the tartare sauce. When asked for it, waitress said "Sorry, there's no tartare sauce." Could have told him when he ordered. My macaroni cheese (Scotland's national dish) was poor. P*ss poor. Could have been made by a nursery class.Friends' beef burgers could have been incinerated less to make them suitable for a crematorium end-product. Then we ordered four more drinks. 10 minutes later reminded waitress and eventually glum barman comes and makes a big show of opening and serving the small, one serving bottle. I gave up and snatched mine in the end as I couldn't bear the drama, especially as we'd finished our food by then.When we paid, we didn't leave a tip partially because it was all so bad and partially in protest as the people who'd come in late next to us (only other ones in the place) were told their drinks (a slimline tonic and a ginger beer) would be on the house because of the delay in cooking their food. AND they waited ages more ... Terrible. Hope they didn't leave a tip, either.Three of us paid cash and the fourth went to Glum Barman, tried to explain that the waitress had taken cash from us and only wanted to pay his portion on a card. When that finally got through after several attempts at explaining, he used the contactless machine. Friend asked for receipt to check the amount he'd paid and was told the machine doesn't do receipts. Machine then proceeds to print out receipt. Egg on face look from the Glum.Redeeming factor? The chips were OK.Won't be going back even though it's close by and we tour round the eateries on a monthly basis. Give this a wide berth until something happens to improve the overall quality of the place. Shame that the owner has a wonderful cafe in the next town and could transfer something to this dire pub.

Family of 8 made very welcome for lunch. Staff helpful and coming. Pub food and generous portions. Good value

Waited ages to get our order taken ...sat near the kitchen and our server had put out wrong order to a table so all we could hear was her swearing....not good or professional when we had a minor with us...

Most enchanting pub in a lovely location on the seaside. The front bar is tiny but very authentic. The only thing that doesn´t really fit is the game machine, but I guess this is modern times. We only had a beer since we had to catch the bus back to Inverness, but the ale was very good and we enjoyed our quick stay.

Cheerful staff, helpful, good service, an old building with steps up and down to dining rooms. Toilet facilities bearable. A pleasant place to stop

This is a small unpretentious pub with public bar and separate dining room. Small but cosy in a well fitted area with great staff and good beer as well as a good variety of food mainly local produce. Well worth a visit if you are in the area.

Was told by reception at campsite the food was good we weren't disappointed had here courses of basic pub food Brie wedges for starter fish and chips for main course and sticky toffee pudding for desert all very fresh,tasty and good sized portions.waiter very friendly and helpful even though it was only his second day in his new job.

We aten hier lunch; de keuken zou volgens het bord op het pand om 12.00 open gaan, er werd aan ons aangegeven dat dat pas om 13.00 zou zijn. De aangrenzende bar was al druk en vol met drinkende jeugd.Na een wandeling om de tijd te vullen konden we terecht.De bestelde hamburger was matig en werd geserveerd op ciabattabrood. Te hard gebakken,net als de friet.De scampi waren in deeg en gefrituurd; vielen ook erg tegen.Terwijl we zaten te eten begon het te lekken vanuit het plafond, vanuit de herentoiletten. Toiletten waren niet echt schoon en in matige staat. In het restaurant zelf was het ook stoffig en smoezelig. De dronken jeugd een ruimte verder deed nog meer afbreuk aan het geheel.

Having passed this quaint inn many times we dropped in and for me it reminded me of what a good old fashioned pub should be, except for the TV, but that is part of more modern times.The staff were all friendly and efficient and i was pleased to see there was local beers on tap. We were offered the dining room or 1 of the tables in the small bar, and opted for the cozy bar.The menu was not extensive but offered a fairly good variety and both our orders were faultless. Well done to all at The Plough Inn and look forward to returning.

A lovely old pub in Rosemarkie, built probably in the 16th century or earlier, rebuilt in 1907, as seen from the plaque over the entrance. Some of the locals were having a drink and were friendly. Unfortunately for us, the cook had gone off ue to a family emergency, so we had to content ourselves with Caledonian lager. Great!

Came to the plough for Sunday lunch. Initially disappointed as a limited menu but then spotted roast lamb as a specialAbsolutely terrificA very good find indeedAccepted dog as well

Excellent food and friendly helpful staff. Little or nothing to complain about. The revuer of March must have suffered from her own verbal diarrhoea and is completely over the top.

Went for dinner with family. Friendly welcoming service and great food. Extensive beer selection. Really enjoyed and would recommend.

Called in for lunch. Dog friendly, that was our main concern. The barmaid could not have been more helpful. Thanks. Food good too!!

We were through in Rosemarkie for the seaside, and decided to have some lunch first. There weren't too many options in the surrounding area, so we decided to try The Plough Inn.As I walked in, I noticed a distinct smell of cat pee. Im sorry if that sounds unfair or if it can somehow be explained, but I really didn't find it acceptable for an eatery. Other overall impressions of the place were that it seemed nice enough- cosy and quaint. I decided to continue and get some lunch, despite the offensive smell as there really weren't many places to choose from that I could see. (eventually, like any smell, you didn't really notice it, but it made me a tad uneasy to think about why it was in a restaurant in the first place!) The menu was varied, and it seemed a bit more than just "pub grub" as suggested in earlier reviews. I ordered the traditional steak pie and chips, which was actually pretty tasty, and a fair portion, too. Other members of my group opted to get a couple of starters rather than a main as they were looking for something lighter to eat. The kids menu was a nice addition, and the kids portions were well sized too. With such nice food, I was really looking forward to something sweet...The dessert was ridiculous. we went for the cheesecake of the day. AKA the foam in a glass of the day. This was not a cheesecake by any stretch of the imagination! For 4.95, you are presented with a semi- crumbled digestive biscuit at the bottom of a cocktail glass- maybe 1.5 digestive biscuits- I'm not too sure on that. The biscuit is then topped with a sweetened aerated cream and a strawberry cut in half so artistically plopped on top. I would consider the total cost to make to be about 50p. Now, I understand that a cheesecake base is, essentially, digestives with butter added and then a topping added and set. Simple. But this really took the proverbial! Also, considering it took at least 25 minutes to appear after our food (and it had been ordered all together) I was expecting something magnificent, but no, I got a foamy, sickly mess that I only ate because it cost me a fiver! Whoever created this shortcut should rethink their approach. Before we left, I popped to the toilet and noticed that it was grubby all the way up the stairway. Smudges and fingerprints everywhere. I understand that a place can only do so much to prevent wear and tear but in future- get silk paint and it can be wiped clean once a week! It was also rather off-putting to see that there had been some childish drawings added to the top of the stairs- Im not sure whether this is a nice piece of family art (in which case is excused) or if it has been an accident by one of the younger clientele which hasn't yet been fixed. It would literally take 10 minutes to paint over this. The toilets looked as though they really needs a bit of DIY. There were a couple of holes in the wall which would easily be panelled over, and again the toilet is quite grubby. I'm quite glad that I was on my way out, as I would have been tempted to drive to the next town if I had seen the overall grubbiness beforehand, coupled with the funny smell. I really don't like to give poor reviews, but I honestly feel as though this one was justified. The only reason the minimum score wasn't given is that the waiting staff were friendly, and the main food was quite tasty. Total bill was about £48 for 4 starters, 1 main, 1 child's meal, a cheeseboard, 2 "cheesecakes" and a child's ice-cream. On paper, this seems fair enough, but I can't help but feeling a little ripped off, given I would have been a tenner less, and enjoyed the experience a bit more without the foamy nonsense.I would not recommend this place, even if in the area. Drive to the next town and go to the co-op for a sandwich! Have a nice picnic on the beach, and you will enjoy it more. I would recommend that The Plough Inn gets a deep clean done as the summer season is nearly upon us and I would like for something constructive to come out of this.

the new owners have done an amazing job in redecorating and creating a great, cosy atmosphere, and the food is just delicious.

We popped into the Plough Inn for our tea after a long drive up the road from Perth. We were met by a very friendly waitress/barmaid (to our shame, we never did get her name but she was great!) and offered a seat in either the dining area or pub.We chose the pub since it was just the two of us in and it was quite cosy.The Plough Inn offers a varied and well-priced standard menu, as well as daily specials.The food was excellent and very well cooked - I was very reluctant to share any of my main with my husband! Our waitress was also very knowledgeable about the menu, while the chef was happy (or at least willing!) to make some slight changes to my starter by leaving out one of the ingredients I didn't like. It may have been a random pick, but the Plough Inn turned out to be an excellent choice and we'd definitely go back next time we're in the area.

We were staying at Rowan Cottage and decided to try eating at the Plough Inn as Crofters where we usually eat was closed until March. ThevInn has recently changed hands and has been redecorated beautifully. The service was excellent and the menu varied. I chose the fish and chips and have never had such good fish and chips. They were attractively presented with delicious chips, tastey salad and delicious home made tartare sauce.Our prawn cocktail starter was also delicious and very generous, full of prawns and smoked salmon. We were too full to sample the desserts but plan to return on Sat. I think They deserve to do well and become very popular. PpPpiP

After a morning moving furniture into my new home, I took the friends that had helped me into the Plough for lunch.One of my friends who is a vegetarian, remarked that she had never seen such a range of options in both starter and main course food.

Went for evening meal, no other people in lounge. Waitress very pleasant, did think she could have remembered who was taking what when serving meal, especially when we were the only diners! A few of us had pesto with fish, no taste of basil, cheese overpowering. The Raspberry cheesecake was a bit of a joke, small cocktail glass with some crumbs then ? A mixer of cream, cheese and perhaps one Raspberry mashed into mixture. The barman came through with drinks, no eye contact or banter. Surrounding quaint

We went in here with our dog and had an evening meal. Ok you are not able to go in the restaurant area with the dog so we sat in the bar which was fine. Our meal was beautiful and served by Audrey who was lovely and chatty. We had the lamb and the battered fish mains plus 2 gorgeous desserts and coffee. This was a lovely birthday treat and included the dog which is great. Thank you to all concerned. Give this place a try the meals are fab.

Better late than never. Had an excellent Christmas dinner. The staff were great and very helpful and the food was delish. They went the extra mile with the cheeseboard, sourcing local and unsual cheese which is a treat in itself.

We have been twice for dinner and both times were excellent.Food was very high standard and cooked to perfection.Staff & service were spot on.The new look works really well. We will definitely recommend The Plough Inn.

Went here today for a late family Christmas meal. Everything was beautiful. Everyone was delighted with the food and service. Will all Defo be back again :)Thanks again

Fantastic food and fantastic staff love the place . Very authentic Scottish pub and a lovely setting . Has a plough fest every year . Will definitely be back

We were staying on the High Street and visited the Plough twice,we have to say on both occasions we found the staff to be so friendly and very helpful.The food was lovely would highly recommend this place x

The Plough has been done up recently and is warm and welcoming inside. Bit of a mix of colours/decor/furnishings but all in all a nice atmosphere. The staff were friendly and informal. We ordered mac and cheese and fish and chips. Both were very nice, tasty and fresh but would have been even better if it had been home made chips instead of frozen skinny fries- disappointing with such a good macaroni!! Reasonably priced and we had a nice time- nothing fancy but a decent, tummy filling meal in warm surroundings.
