The best restaurants in Oban North and Lorn Argyll & Bute Central Scotland

A very warm and welcoming stopover on our way back to the Isle of Mull - slightly off the beaten track but worth the short 6 mile detour. Lovely village location with excellent rooms offering comfortable ensuite accommodation. No need to go looking for food, this is an inn with rooms owned by the chefs who offer a fresh creative menu serving delicious and beautifully presented food. Between us we enjoyed fresh local mussels, crab cakes, beef cheeks with seasonal veg and the BEST hand cut homemade chips EVER followed by a warm homemade treacle tart and ice cream. All washed down with great ale and red wine. All the staff we met were warm and welcoming who understand the importance of hospitality and how to look after their customers including those with dogs. Our Labrador was made very welcome - highly recommended and looking forward to return a visit.

We came across Robin's Nest by chance and were greeted in a warm friendly manner. I am on a Dairy Free Diet and the menu catered for all my needs. When we ordered coffee we were given an alternative choice of milks. The cakes were home made and delicious. I would highly. recommend this tea room

The best meal I’ve ever eaten. Absolutely outstanding. We went here whilst on holiday to celebrate my partners birthday. We wanted a special meal and wow did we get it. The restaurant is beautiful and intimate and right in the heart of Oban so very easy to walk to. Sitting at the chefs table watching him cook and hearing about how he sourced ingredients and about the local area was lovely. The food was indescribable it was simply stunning. We are still talking about the venison and scallops a week later. If you want something a little bit different and special this is it. We will definitely be back.

Truly excellent thank you so much! We are a family of 4 so bought a selection of dishes. All great :) The lady serving was very chatty and friendly, assisting us with flavours. A gem of a place for a rural place like this. Enjoy!

Very friendly, welcoming spot. Run by volunteers in the community. Fantastic views of Loch Awe from the terrace at the back!

Found this cafe by accident and so glad we did. Beautifully clean, smart and modern - you may eat inside or out. As well as light lunches, they do some serious food and there is a really good choice. I had a cumberland sausage and onion baguette; very generous with the filling and good quality sausage. With it came five different salads; the carrot and sunflower one had a particularly delicious dressing. My husband had a ham and cheese baguette and he was equally enthusiastic. Highly recommended.

Fabulous cakes and the best shortbread ever all made by local ladies in their own homes. Highly recommend

Hidden gem. Lovely food. Friendly staff. Pleasant walk just near this place. We had homemade lunch followed by delicious cakes and coffee. There is also a little shop in the cafe which had some nice local goods in.

First class- beautiful setting, food excellent and staff friendly and helpful. Looking forward to our next visit. Heather and Jimmy Fort Augustus

Phils takeaway frozen curries are excellent, and Phil himself really accommodating. We were staying locally in self catering accommodation and had a curry on our last might - wish we had done it sooner, and we would have had two!

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING!! We stumbled on this place by accident when trying to find a good view of Stalker Castle. We decided to pop in this little pub for a pint but little did we know how special this place is. We arrived a bit before dinner service was starting so we chatted with the host and she gave us the run down of the place - it's history, the food, etc. Luckily we were able to get a table and WOW the food was delicious. I had the stake and fries and my wife had the home made tagliatelle pasta with beef - both of which were great. We followed that with sticky toffee pudding and it was the best we had over our two week trip. It is one of those experiences we will remember for a very long time.

Read about this shop before coming on holiday. What can I say; we were not disappointed. We bought 2 Currys (mutton bhuna and chicken jalfresi) and some bhajis which we cooked from frozen and they were all very tasty.

The best waffles ever! Perfect hot chocolates!

High expectations lovely service bland underwhelming food .Disappointing .

What a perfect collection of whiskeys and.bourbons. The bar was beautiful and a friendly atmosphere.
