The best restaurants in Argyll & Bute Central Scotland

This is actually the Premier Inn Hotel restaurant, but don’t be fooled by any means - this is not standard. The food is great & made by a very creative Chef would pays attention to deal & cares about what he’s plating. Our server who was also the bar tender was so nice & very attentive. Houmous & gain salad on the Mediterranean salad dish were all made from scratch & with the olives & pita bread were excellent. The linguine, tomato with prawn was also a winner. Tiramisu cream made from scratch too. We asked to meet the Chef the meal was so good - a very humble, nice hungarian guy. A pleasure to meet him. Given it was a hotel restaurant - it was a bit quiet, but we didn’t care as the ambiance was relaxed & tables were rustic. Who needs crowds - LOL.

The door was opened by a female staff member who said very abruptly ‘I don’t do dogs’ she then turned her back on us!. It was pouring down and not possible to sit outside.

On arriving and seeing the McD-style ordering screens we weren't too hopeful. But the options were good and the process straightforward, just enter table number per the markers next to the screen and take it with you to a spare table. Hot drinks came quickly, and food not much longer. We just had breakfast/brunch. Staff are excellent; constantly clearing tables and wiping them down for the next occupants.

Une très vaste salle avec jolie vue Vous scannez le menu, sélectionnez vos choix, payez et on vous sert à table Prix très très corrects pour une ville touristique et surtout pour le pays Si vous prenez café ou thé, on vous apportera un mug et vous vous servirez à volonté Le plat et le dessert étaient très bons

Nice basic food at a reasonable price. Service was friendly even though they were very busy and had run low on some stock.

The cafe is in a great spot for people coming off or going on the ferry. we called in a couple of times. coffees good, food fine but they seemed a little distracted!

Had a takeaway while on holiday on Islay. To explain why it dropped a star, the Pakora batter and Naan bread were disappointing. That is where the disappointment stopped. The cry itself was amazing. King Prawn Balti with their own special pilau rice. The Balti itself was beautifully and tastefully prepared, with prawns of the quality that one can expect on Islay. It was crafted very carefully with the right balance of fresh veg and spices. Their special rice too was outstanding. Well worth a try for a takeaway.

The absolute best ice cream! Of course, everyone is a fan of ice cream, but this surpasses all! Absolutely a must try if you ever visit the Isle of Bute - extremely reasonable pricing and the *best* quality & taste. I personally recommend trying their standard vanilla flavour + the raspberry (?) sauce on top as this is genuinely my favourite ice cream in the world, but of course all their flavours are great regardless. I believe they make the ice cream themselves via a milk-based recipe, its very light and refreshing, perfect for any occasion. The staff are friendly, the chippy-chips they serve are decent, though I can’t comment too much on anything else they serve since I haven’t tried much else myself! Their cafe is normally busy when we visit so I’d say that’s a good sign, their ice cream’s standard has been very consistent as well during our countless visits. I’d never hop on the ferry to leave Bute without having a Zavaroni’s ice cream!

My meal had been forgotten and so I had to wait for another 20 minutes whilst my party ate theirs. The fish pie was full of bones and when we went to pay I was offered no recompense. We tried to add a tip for the staff but the bar man used some colourful language to the staff around him as he couldn't work the till. Very poor all round

The restaurant is currently closed and doesn’t look like it will be opening anytime soon

Excellent meal well presented very friendly staff and good atmosphere we had the Sunday roast veggie option cooked to perfection would not hesitate to recommend

Truly terrible, my wife asked for a 'ploughman's jacket potato ' got a jacket potato with at least two tablespoons of Branston pickle and no cheese, service was slow and chaotic I had a chicken and bacon baguette, and if there was any bacon in there, I missed it. Meanwhile the kitchen was filled with loud conversation/argument at all times. Also, as a lot of other people have said, check your bill carefully as they seem to have a bit of a blind spot when it comes to adding up. We were smoothly overcharged, and we made them check the bill 3 times before they came up with the right answer. Plenty of other options on the street, avoid this one.

Booked for meal for Mother's Day, the place was closed, no one there, no one let us know
