The best restaurants in Argyll & Bute Central Scotland

Stopped off for a breather during a drive from Glasgow to Oban. Great view. But don't go inside! The place is pretty filthy: contact of any kind with the floors was not a good idea. Didn't smell great either. Staff definitely not in line with the usual friendliness of the Scots. Drank my coffee with much trepidation, and left. Stayed away from the food.

I ordered a pizza last week.the pizza was really nice my son and my wife enjoyed it they improved they are food quality.100% recommend

The people behind the counter couldn't seem less interested in taking your order. I think I had to speak to 3 people, repeating my order to each, until one of them bothered to write it down They charged me full amount, but only gave me 2/3rds of the food (which I discovered when home). Charlatans

I was in need of lunch today. I was passing through the area and this place looked inviting from the outside. However, everything inside was horribly disappointing. I read a notice which informed me that I should order my food at the post office which was at the back of a shop - the restaurant was in a section to the right. It was cold, lacked any atmosphere and apart from two customers it was empty. I checked the menu, there was a plethora of rolls and sandwiches listed, but apart from that, there was soup, or fish and chips. I went to the post office and asked for the fish and chips and was told by a very unfriendly person that they couldn't do that because they were not putting on the fryer. So I went back to the restaurant and checked over the menu again. I chose a simple cheese and onion toastie. When it arrived, it looked very unappetising, and had no garnish at all. It was utterly tasteless, chewy plastic cheese and even the onions had no flavour. How is that possible? It was completely inedible and I left most of it on the plate. I paid £9.70p for the toastie and a pot of tea for one. On the menu the toastie was priced at £4.45 and the tea was £3.35. So I was OVERCHARGED into the bargain. Don't try it unless desperation is pushing you.

Very long wait. Not great value and not great food. Had been before for lunch a year ago and loved it. This experience was not the same.

I’m disappointed with this place our lunch took over 40 mins to come to the table. We ordered panini’s with spicy chicken & 2 kids meals when it finally arrived at the table there was hardly any filling in any of our panini’s. The kids chicken nuggets and chips were disgusting that the kids didn’t even eat them. I said to the staff member about this as the meal was £55 I felt the meal was very expensive for such poor quality. I will not be returning to this cafe.

What a disappointment when I asked what time the bar opens I was told “ we don’t have one”!! As I was having food later I could have a bottle on the bill. Potato and leek soup was probably the most watery I’ve ever had and on serving the owner whilst warning me the roll was hot picked it up twice and put it back on the plate. If you read the overview on here it states the best seafood in the world and freshly prepared. I ordered cod and chips and couldn’t eat it. It was taken of the bill. I went to my vehicle @9.30 and the place was locked up with nobody in sight. As a guest you are made to feel like he would be much happier if you weren’t there. I had a double that was a very small double bed with no headboard. The room was in desperate need of maintenance and updating. There is wi fi but a lot of buffering Eggs and bacon at breakfast was ok and possibly the best thing about the whole experience

Firstly, why close a cafe at 3.30? Secondly, having angry signs which say 'Don't move the furniture' is just not hospitable. Food average, atmosphere, unfriendly, and certainly not welcoming. What a shame, such a great missed opportunity here.

Horrific. Afternoon tea was a joke. No cafetiere. A teapot with cold hot water and a bowl of single packs of room service type nescafe single packs coffee/tea. Hot water luke warm and promptly sent back requesting it to be hot and aslo to bring some milk for the table. Very small dainty sandwiches nothing like their picture with side salad consisting of dead lettuce and shredded carrots. The scones were dry fruit scones which tasted well past their date life and sourced from lidl. No butter either! Very dainty one bite mini mini cakes. Save your money. Wish I had.

Grim dive occupied by losers. Scared of anyone that isn’t local corrupting their gene pool. Would recommend avoiding if you aren’t attracted to members of your own family.

We were in the Craignure area and looking for a hot drink and cakes. There was a large queue early on, but we called back later and got served easily. We sat outside which gets a great view of the ferry terminal, though it's worth beng aware that there is limited seating inside and outside, so if the queue looks big it may be difficult to get a seat. The coffee and cakes were lovely. My only small criticism is that I wasn't offered a tray to carry my order on, and because we were sitting outside, it was quite awkward to carry everything. This should have been plain to see to the woman serving me, but instead another customer offered me help. I appreciate that only counter service is offered, but this did suggest that hospitality and service were perhaps lacking and is why I never left a tip on the day.

Freshest best seafood in town. Having seen a couple dine on this feast the night before, we pre ordered (do so) a platter for us the next day. Lobster, crab, langoustine, scallops and oysters. Clean, fresh.......devine

Cracking place for a tasty treat. great food and a very attentive service highly recommended, made our day in Oban special.

This cafe recently changed hands however carry out rolls and soup remain very tasty and competitively priced. Bacon roll delish and very good quality bacon. Other feedback for potato scones also very positive. It’s not really a sit in cafe as only one table to use while waiting on your order being made however excellent local choice for a quick carry out breakfast or lunch. Elderly Gentleman who serves is very nice and accommodating.

Stayed over at the Stonefield Hotel. Very pleasant and relaxed from start to finnish breakfast was delicious grace our host was very attentive and we wanted for nothing..
