Seafood Capital of Scotland you know.

Very busy however did have a good atmosphere and a good selection of beers and spirits

Outside was packed and hot; as this great ball of fire was in the sky. We sat inside in one of the cozy booths. The staff were friendly and the food delicious. Very welcoming and chilled atmosphere. Parking is in either parking lot on either side of the buildings.

My wife ad I visited for lunch on Sunday 13th April. Whilst our meals were very good, the service later in the mea became rather questionable. Once I had finished my meal - hardly finished my last mouthful - a server seemed to swoop toward the table to clear the table asking 'did we enjoy that.' My wife did remark to me as the server left with our plates that she may have wished to finish her chips but the swift actions of said server barely gave us a chance to think let alone say anything. A few seconds later the server returned and deposited the bill on the table - I hadn't yet asked for it. On opening the bill it became apparent that it wasn't our bill and luckily I was able to hand it backto her as she was attending the next table. It transpired that the bill belonged to the next table who had already had the wrong meals brought to them a little earlier. Small points perhaps but we were left with the impression that some attention to detail was lacking. I accept that the vast majority of reviews are positive but this felt harried and thoughtless.

Disappointed. Friday night on a bank holiday weekend, arrived at 8pm and asked for a table for 2. Restaurant still had more than 50% of customers but we were told kitchen was closed. Clearly couldn't be bothered. I'd never return based on that lack of customer care.

Amazing wee cafe with lovely service. Great breakfast rolls and cakes. We came here 2 of the 3 days we were staying in Tobermory. My only wee suggestion would be to take payment for sit-in orders at the time of ordering rather than after people have ate. When we got there it was quite quiet but when we were leaving it was much busier and we had to queue for a long time just to pay. I understand when it’s busy this can happen but would be avoided with only having to queue once when ordering and pay at that point so you can just leave when done. ☺️

We had an amazing lunch here. Truly seafood heaven. Parking was a bit of an issue due to numerous patrons. So we had to park about 300 yards down from the restaurant. So not the worst thing. Otherwise, the service was impeccable. The food was amazing. Even the bread stood out. We had the seafood tower, which had two hot items (scallop and mussels) and three cold (oysters, pickled herring, Langoustines). Everything was cooked perfectly and so tasty. The accompanying tarragon mayo was so good. Highly recommend. They do take reservations on Resy. We will be back!!!!

Pulled in as fancied a drink, and really glad we did! View of castle spectacular and the place itself was just so lovely! Had a coffee, hot chocolate and some cake, was so relaxed and welcoming, and loved the music. Could have literally sat in there for hours just looking out the window. If you are in the area please go in!

Last-Minute Stay Turned into a Wonderful Experience! We ended up booking this hotel very last minute after our original hotel wasn’t suitable — and honestly, we’re so glad we did! From the moment we arrived, the reception staff were incredibly accommodating and went above and beyond to help us get a room. Their warmth and professionalism immediately put us at ease. The hotel itself is stunning, with a lovely atmosphere and beautiful decor. Our room was clean, comfortable, and stylish — everything you’d hope for in a relaxing stay. We were there for two nights, and the next morning I went to reception to ask for champagne glasses and a bucket of ice to celebrate my partner’s birthday. Not only was the request handled quickly, but the staff also surprised us by leaving a birthday card in our room — such a thoughtful gesture that really made our stay extra special. The cocktail bar was fantastic — great ambiance and well-made drinks. While we didn’t have a chance to try the food or spa this time, we’re definitely planning to do so on our next visit. Highly recommend this hotel — friendly staff, lovely rooms, and excellent service throughout. Can’t wait to return!

Had a beautiful meal. View was amazing. We were able to sit outside and enjoy the view. Food was delicious and great choice for gluten and dairy intolerant

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.

Did. Or feel welcome or that the bar tender was at all interested in us as guess .having had a meal in the main hotel in the past we were surprised . Sadly when. My starter of scallops arrived there was a black curly hair on the plate . I did not feel I could return it because the place did not feel but I did say when the waiter arrived to clear the plates that I might have been able to enjoy y meal had it not been for the addition hair , there was no comment

Pizza was very good and reasonably priced. Can't ask for much more. Full service bar/wine service. Lots of varieties of toppings: pineapple, pepperoni, peppers, even haggis I think! Much better food than the hotel.

We regularly have breaks in Cowal and have been going to the Oystercatcher for years as we love the location. Having just recently re-opened we decided to give it a try for dinner, and were not disappointed. Good selection of dishes with a focus on fish and local ingredients - we selected oysters and seafood tagliatelle which were both excellent. Reasonably priced given its location. Would thoroughly recommend and wish the new owners/managers every success.
