The best restaurants in Argyll & Bute Central Scotland

I thought long and hard about whether to leave this review but our experience in the cafe wasn’t good. Positives: food was great, staff were friendly. However, the reason for the poor rating is that a dog, presumably the owners was a pest throughout our visit. It roamed free, in and out of the kitchen, was begging at our table, constantly circling us and squeezing through the chair legs. The final straw was when the dog then jumped up, had paws on the table and almost grabbed our food. Completely unacceptable and totally unhygienic. My wife had to shout at the dog to get down but staff were oblivious. It’s one thing a dog being in a cafe but it shouldn’t, in my view be allowed to roam free being a pest. A shame as we would have liked to have visited the Yellow Hare again but it just wasn’t a pleasant experience in that respect.

The quality of the fish and chips was amazing! Freshest fish, really light, crisp batter and chips to die for. Lovely, friendly counter staff. Everything cooked to order.

Great breakfast, good choice (even for vegetarians/vegans) and friendly helpful staff. Thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast - next time we might even try the breakfast cocktail …

Food was average. The works burger bun was soggy and was dished up with a few corn chips and lettuce. My wife had an American hotdog which was nice enough

Everyone at this cafe was very friendly and welcoming and the food was excellent. Keith, in particular, went above and beyond, offering an alternative salad as special had just sold out. He then very kindly gave us a lift back to Portavadie when we discovered there was no longer a taxi service in the town.

Now The Reef Inn. The Beachcomber has changed hands and now trades as The Reef Inn. We discovered this ourselves in June 2021 when we were looking for the Beachcomber.

Lovely staff. Great coffee, and the perfect cheese and onion toastie - nice strong cheddar the perfect cheese to onion ratio.

The food was absolutely disgusting no taste what so ever and the staff where very rude the man called Bartek shows no care in his food and I felt very ill a short while after consuming the meal. If ever in Campbeltown I advise not to go here as you will be very dissatisfied with there food and the price they charge for it

Visited the island 8th- 11th August with intent to visit gardens and cafe Only open Tues and Thurs. Not on the Fri / Sat / or Sun Not very helpful for those on holiday looking for somewhere for refreshments.

Stopped here for some lunch on our way to Inver. What a treat! Lovely clean tea room. Excellent poached eggs. The staff cared and took an interest in customers. Thank you!

We had lunch here today as the Continental was closed. We were pleasantly surprised after reading the bad reviews. I had a ham salad sandwich on granary bread. It was really substantial. Full to the brim with ham, lettuce, onion, tomato, cucumber and red pepper and only £3.80. My husband had a fish finger sandwich which contained four fish fingers in a large roll. We had a bottle of sparkling water and the total came to less than £10. Our order came in about ten minutes so the service wasn't bad at all.

This is the loveliest tea room with the friendliest staff. They were so welcoming and even offered to give my boyfriend and I a lift! Such a great place to stop for a coffee near the loch. I would love to come back here!

Nice friendly local pub with lovely owners / staff and views across the golf course. They do not serve food here, only drinks.

Reasonably priced - excellent seafood - menu caters for all tastes and requirements. Let them know in advance if you have specific dietary requirements
