The best restaurants in Cowal Argyll & Bute Central Scotland

Amazing food great service and venue, really enjoyed our meal.

Went here for my 30th birthday meal. Absolutely fantastic service and the food was outstanding. I have an Indian every year for my bday tradition and this was the best one I've had. Definitely worth a visit.

Great service delicious coffees and cake and hot choc thoroughly recommend

Excellent from start to finish . Clean and modern accommodation with breathtaking views . Menu in restaurant is interesting and will cover even the pickiest eaters requirements ! Spa facilities are great, albeit not open just now but can’t wait to return when restrictions are relaxed . All in all a lovely day and night can’t wait to back with girls for a spa weekend .

Don't come here. It's awful. I had to put up with chatty lovely ladies serving. Food made fresh was so bad I had to try the carrot cake. I even had to eat all of that to be sure. The coffee all though fresh and full of flavour had the effect of making me want more. Just awful. Stay out. Oh, I've tried to use sarcasm. If I've failed it's because The Blairmore is downright superb! Save me a table for next time I'm passing please!

Had one of the best meals ever in this fantastic refurbished restaurant. Tide and Thyme have always produced excellent food but the new styling is truly remarkable. Everything just spot on. Our meals were all perfect, zucchini fritters, scallops, lamb, sea bass, seafood linguine, everything was beautifully presented, great portions and tasted sublime. Thank you for a wonderful evening. Good luck....not that you will need it....!

Great wee place to pass the time. We have been here three or four times and have been lucky enough to have sunny weather each time. Consequently we have only sat outside on the south facing front to admire the view over the Holy Loch and Clyde. Good coffee and great cakes, not your normal tired looking Victoria sponge, we both had a slice of French Apple Cake this time. What more can you ask for? Well although we haven’t had anything more than coffee and cake you can have something more substantial if you want. Good service and dog friendly. They will give your pooch a freshly poured bowl of water and some treats too. Very relaxing outside watching the world go by, even in March.

Lovely friendly place with freshly cooked food. Bonus for dog owners- plenty of indoor space. A real find. Handy for the ferry at Hunters Quay too.

Our family party of 10 had a most memorable dinner this evening. Excellent-quality local food cooked to perfection. I had a pressed oxtail dish which was the most flavoursome beef dish I can remember. Superb. Thanks to all involved.

Yes off the beaten track but well worth it

Welcoming. Great atmosphere. Great location.

Really enjoyed the seafood lunch. Food is very yummy and service is good.

I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to the Inver Restaurant, having learned about it from a Rick Stein TV programme. Rather than travel through Glasgow and up the A82, I came north via Stirling and Crianlarich, where the sunlit Autumn scenery was truly spectacular. The restaurant is perfectly positioned, with a fine view across Loch Fyne. I was reminded of the Three Chimneys restaurant on Skye, as here is another restaurant, bravely situated in a remote place, trusting that their skill, enthusiasm and focus on sustainability and local produce will attract knowing people from far and wide. I was staying overnight in one of the bothies right next to the restaurant; it was fitted out exactly as one might want, with plenty of room, a large and comfortable bed, a vinyl record player (!) and a big picture window looking out across the water to the remains of Castle Lachlan. The restaurant itself is an extended former crofter's cottage, simply but stylishly furnished and decorated. There is a relaxed atmosphere, and the staff make you feel completely at home. I had arranged to take the tasting menu with the wine flight. I could hardly wait for the kitchen doors to open and the next course to arrive! Each one took me on a wonderfully exciting journey through the local area. The wines, carefully chosen to match the food, were never the obvious choice, and each one brought on more feelings of discovery and pleasure. I asked the staff to forgive me, as I had been instructed to photograph every single thing in order satisfy enthusiastic demands from friends at home and abroad -which they are now sharing, enthusiastically. In summary, I would say it's definitely worth the time, the journey and the money to visit the Inver Restaurant. You will not be disappointed. In many ways, it's a living example of how the crofting principle can be applied to a contemporary business. For that initiative alone, it deserves our support. Secure in your wise decision, you can then sit back and admire the enterprise, originality and skills demonstrated in the imagination and preparation of the food on each plate.

Popped in for lunch after getting a recommendation from a friend. Friendly staff, lovely decor and great location. Plenty of choice on the menu and everything g we ordered was excellent. Highly recommended.
