The best restaurants in Dunoon Argyll & Bute Central Scotland

Sunday afternoon cabaret with Just John and Paul plus a fabulous afternoon tea- would definitely book again !

Lovely quaint coffee shop in the heart of Dunoon with a cracking breakfast. Service was friendly and fast. Lots on the menu, including some tasty looking homemade cakes!

Just wanted to try it not a chocolate freque found it a nice setting but simple only one female person serving polite and efficent

Nowhere on planet earth makes soups like this place. Nowhere I tell you. This is the Holy Grail of soup makers. Simply divine creations that are different each day. I've never been a massive soup enthusiast but this place has me hooked. The butties aren't half bad too!

Simple menu but really delicious soup and cake, v friendly though overworked staff member, nice airy venue for lunch. Might write a book about the exploits of the characters in the clientele……

Sorry to say this restaurant is disappointing. The food is over priced and the quality of the food in my experience was below par. Unfortunately, most of the food seems to have been cooked straight from frozen, hence the watery mushroom starter. It's a pity the standard of food is not good, as the restaurant itself is inviting and charming. Some clever menu changes, demonstrating the quality of food equals value for money prices. Also, food choices on how to meet the needs of locals and tourists alike would likely bring in new and regular custom. Such as weekly specials... Pizza night etc. To be perfectly honest the Italian theme doesn't match the food delivered in other Italian restaurants, yet its food prices are high and out of reach for much of the community. It would be lovely to visit and recommend to others if the changes recommended were put in place.

Good food dog friendly fabulous staff

We were staying in the village for a week and ate at The Ardentinny on three evenings, and had excellent meals each time. Well presented and good sized portions. The menu is fairly small, but well varied, with an obvious use of local products where possible. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming, and it is dog friendly. (Just check their opening hours during the off season) Highly recommended !

Stayed for a wedding with my two young children. Room was a great size & travel cot was set up ready for us. Staff were friendly & helpful. Breakfast was lovely, staff were accommodating & it felt that nothing was too much bother. Would stay again!

I had booked lunch for a party of six for 1pm 14th February. The staff were lovely and friendly and couldn't do enough for us. The food was freshly made and excellent and although we had a three-course meal, I had forgotten that I had also ordered a cake to celebrate my wedding day. I took it home with me to enjoy later and it was amazing. Great food, very reasonably priced and we all had a great time. Thank you so much guys you made my day even more special.

A hidden gem! Cycling around Dunoon and stopped here for a coffee! A bookstore crammed with an eclectic mix of books, which also doubles as a gift shop and serves coffee and cake! Lovely service!

You'll never find another pub like it, brilliant. Also, it is very entertaining when you get a good crowd. Highly recommend

This shop really is the hidden gem of Dunoon. There are a few things to try, that cannot be missed. The first is the cinnamon bun! - Well worth pre-ordering, make sure you get enough, as one will not be enough. Next, the handmade chocolates are to die for! - Little hits of delicious chocolatey goodness. Beautifully flavoured and presented. Yolanda is really personable and friendly. If you need a bespoke birthday cake, or something sweet to tackle your cravings… this is the go-to place.

Just been for a meal with my partner staff were very attentive and discreet and food was amazing we will definitely be back

Few freaks of nature that come in and out at all times of the day and night although prices are good enough and the staff are very welcoming and friendly, good pool table if you want to watch or get in on the action. Ill say its Recommended by me for sure!
