We’ve stayed just down the road from the Gaelic Centre four times now but this is the first time we’ve realised that the cafe is open outwith special events. We had excellent coffee and scones served by lovely friendly staff. The centre is very peaceful and has great views. We also really enjoyed seeing the paintings by local artist Dieter Finger - both the landscapes and the impressive portraits of some of the musicians who’ve played at the Lagavulin jazz festival in the past.

This was a lovely place with really friendly and helpful staff . I’m surprised about the review about booking , it’s pretty obvious it would be a good idea to book on an island this small ! The food was superb , so fresh and well cooked . I can’t fault the place and will definitely be back . I’d recommend everyone go once if you are on the island . Yumm

Been coming to Islay for years. Look forward to eating here on our annual trip. always a favourite with Mom, Dad and children. This year not so much. Something has clearly gone wrong. staff were miserable and food well even more miserable. Tasteless with no thought or care gone into it. we were so so sad to see this happen to Ardbeg and we wondered why? when owned by such a big luxury corporation LVMH this experience was anything but luxury.

We've wanted to return here since we first visited 10 years ago. Wow, hasn't it changed! I had memories of a few outside tables and being reliant on the weather. Now there's a purpose built dining area (still has a little way to go, especially with the heating!) and table service. What hasn't changed is the warmth of the welcome and the quality of the food - just lovely. Had the seafood platter for 2, what a feast. 6 hours later it resulted in a very small snack tea. A destination place, but one we'll travel to again.

We came to Jura Isle to take a self driving tour of the isle with a visit to Corran Sands. Our family migrated from Jura Isle to the United States leaving from Corran Sands. Beautiful beach for finding little shells, wandering in the water and just sitting and pondering.

A quick stop at the wee Isle Cafe 5 minutes before closing time. My partner had an amazing Vanilla ice cream that is made locally on the Isle and I had a plain scone and Latte. All were amazing and the location and views are superb. What a little gem for this fantastic small island.

Restaurant, staff, food and owner all fantastic. Felt extremely welcome and nothing was too much trouble. Peter, the owner, was perfect host and looked after us despite being full that evening. He even showed a couple of our group his extensive whisky collection which was above and beyond! Public bar is another story. We moved through after dinner and a couple of the patrons decided to make really off remarks about one of our group who's in his 80's. The comments were made deliberately in earshot and were derogatory, spiteful and totally unacceptable. Got the feeling they were designed to be incendiary and to provoke us. Really not pleasant. To be fair to management they weren't aware and obviously didn't condone but not an experience I'd wish to repeat. One of the guys involved liked everyone to know he works at one of the better known distilleries on the island - I'm sure he's a real poster boy for his employers!

We were in here at the best time ever, in the morning just as they were taking their sausage rolls and hot foods from the oven. Yumm!! A delicious warm sausage roll with lots of filling and great flaky pastry. It was very hard to exercise any self control and not come back for another, just because it was so tasty! The location is great with indoor and outdoor seating, elevated above road level with views over the water. Feedback on the vegetarian sausage roll from other customers was also good and there were lots of sandwiches there too that we didn’t try. It was a bit early in the morning for wine but they had an interesting selection. Friendly owners who have apparently recently taken over. Highly recommended

Wir waren vor genau zwei Jahren hier und für uns war es damals das beste Restaurant der Insel! Wir haben uns seit der Buchung vor 6 Monaten auf den Besuch hier gefreut. Die Qualität ist heute leider eine andere und schon während der Vorspeise haben wir uns gefragt ob der Besitzer oder der Koch gewechselt haben oder Beide. Wenn ein verschwitzter Kellner hyperaktiv, wie ein gut gelaunter Tornado durch das Restaurant wirbelt, Empfehlungen heraushastet, während er schon wieder auf dem Weg zur Küche ist, mit Waschlappen und Desinfektion unter der verschwitzten Achsel Bestellungen aufnimmt und man völlig aufgekratzt das Lokal verlässt statt runter zu kommen, dann hat Das wenig mit dem „Duffies“ zu tun, in dem man vor zwei Jahren nicht nur ausgezeichnet speisen konnte, sondern sich schon auf den nächsten Abend freuen durfte. Essen war nicht auf dem Level von 2023! Bedienung Quereinsteiger ohne Gastroerfahrung! Nach dem Essen waren wir uns sicher, Koch und Besitzer haben gewechselt! Wir jetzt auch!
