The best restaurants in Dunoon Argyll & Bute Central Scotland

We hired out Chatters for our wedding and it was the perfect place to host our wedding breakfast. The meticulous planning of Katie and Rosie was exemplary; they really listened to what we wanted, and catered for every need. Communicative, clear and kind. The service from all of the staff was amazing - glasses never empty, extra portions, and personable conversation. It felt like being welcomed into someone's home. The food at Chatters is some of the best in the area and all of our guests are still talking about the fantastic meal they had: "One of the best meals of my life" said one! The pudding trolley (a Chatters institution) was fabulous as always, too. The kitchen team are every bit as amazing as the front-of-house team. We knew the service from the Chatters team would be excellent, so we employed them for our wedding reception at Dunoon Burgh Hall, that same evening, and the transition from location to location was seamless. Our evening buffet food went down a treat, and sustained everyone for the rest of the night. Our day would not have been what it was, if it wasn't for the team. They are absolutely a 5-star restaurant and dining experience - we'd give them more stars if we could! Thanks again to Katie, Rosie and the team. Lewis and Ed x

We went to Chatters for the French evening on Fri 10th November. What can I say? Food the best on this side of the peninsula and would give city centre eateries a run for their money. Front of house had Rosie working her magic getting everyone seated and settled (the place was full). Eva was knowledgable, funny and selected superb wines to match the food so tastefully prepared by Katie and her team. It was tasteful, flavoursome and beautifully presented. Having good friends in Lyon, I never knew the French preferred their cheese course before dessert but it does make sense. A wonderful evening and I look forward to going back for an a la carte experience next time.

Had a lovely night stay with dinner - Breakfast was also great! Scenery and beach area was beautiful. Staff very friendly and attentive xx Clean and Welcoming x

As soon as you walk in you are made to feel so welcome by Mark and his staff. The food was outstanding. Everything was so fresh and lots of local produce used. Mark is very enthusiastic about his food and genuinely cares that you enjoy your meal. Lots of vegan options. Will definitely be be back.

Wonderful bakers and cafe centred in Dunoon town. Wide range of bread / rolls cakes and bakery products. Cafe with large menu choices from full cooked meals to lighter options of rolls and cakes. Helpful and friendly service with staff serving you at the table. Toilets available for customers. Full disability access throughout and disabled toilet - at least a toilet a wheelchair can fit in. Parking kerbside close by when space allows and there are also public car parks in Dunoon - highly recommend …

This cafe went above and beyond. Not only did I get chips and cheese with a coffee (after a 30mile bike ride) but I also managed to charge my phone and when I asked when the ferry was due got an up to the minute status

We visited this week for lunch and was not disappointed! Friendly welcoming staff, nice modern restaurant with plenty of selection on the menu. We had the high tea which was only £20 for 2 people and consisted of delicious fish and chips with a cuppa after. We also had the Solero frozen cocktail which was yummy!

Great place! Huge portions and value for money.

Very nice hotel. We have eaten here on 2 occasions and found the service and food excellent. The hotel was extremely cosy with comfortable rooms to relax in. We will definitely go back again

Thank you to the lovely people at Eat Street at the Stadium - they went above and beyond to make battered fish and French fries for me - different from their current daily special of breaded fish- excellent customer service. Food was delicious! Thanks a bunch guys - great little find.

Lovely place for coffees and lunches. Home baking is delicious and changes all the time. Staff are friendly and the service is good. Nice spot at the end of the West Bay near the old Victorian Pier and the Cal Mac Gourock- Dunoon ferry

Friendly cafe with a decent menu, plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. Soy or oat milk available for milky coffees. Decent prices and a warm welcome. Recommended.

Came here when I was home. Food was good as was the service. Recommend a visit if you are in Dunoon 👍

When open (it has now closed permanently); it was a great wee eating house! We went there often. It will be sadly missed, used by many locals, tourists and organisations as an affordable restaurant.

Lovely home made soup and cakes. Great exhibition to share on a horrible, windy day outside!
