What an amazing little place to stay. The view from the restaurant and our room was beautiful. The…read morefood and service were some of the best we experienced in Scotland. Sunset views from our room. Several times we were able to watch sea otters playing in the bay. Walk across the street and you will find an abundance of blackberries growing. We picked some every evening to enjoy a little snack for our sunset walks. The Glue Pot (the hotel bar) was a very cozy little place with friendly staff and locals.

A table for 6 and greeted with friendly staff. Morgan, who took very good care of us. She was very friendly, sweet, attentive and quite lovely. Right from the start, it was great. Once seated, it did quite busy as other guest was arriving the same time as we did. Menu wise, quite impressive with an array of dishes. The special did all sounds quite great, especially the surf and turf. Started off with a dozen of the oyster, quite fresh and chilled perfectly. The seafood chowder was oh so great. Full of flavors with chunks of shrimps, mussels and fish served with a thick slice of bread and butter. Onto mains, we had a selections of dishes. The seafood linguine with king prawns, mussels and scallops served in a white sauce. The ragu, with thick pasta. Full of flavors tossed all together for the comforting taste. As well as the chicken presented beautifully served on top of a sauce with chunks of tomato and chorizo. And adding to that was the lamb, served with rice in a curry sauce. Flavors in flavors. And to top everything off, dessert was added. The sticky toffee pudding warmed with the glazed and creams. Tiramisu and cheesecake served with creams. Nice way to end a meal. Overall, very impressed with the meal. Fresh seafood, great service. Cool vibe, Morgan, such a sweet and cool server. Would definitely be back whenever visiting Oban again.

This place is incredible. My wife and were here on an 08/21/23 (as part of our honeymoon trip--we…read moreare from Boston USA). It was a stormy day with high winds and raining heavily. we had to wait about 30 minutes to get in. the wait was every bit worth it. My wife got a scallop dish and I got a haddock. The scallop dish (there were at least 10 large pieces cooked in butter) is probably the best food we have ever had. Maybe being super hungry and waiting outside in crazy conditions, then getting inside a nice, warm, and cozy place was part of why the food tasted better but I highly recommend this place. FYI, this place doesn't take reservations. It makes sense because it's a small place and if someone doesn't show up, a table goes wasted.

In this area there is no shortage of cafe's dotted around the town, this one stood out with the red exterior and probably one of the healthier places to go. Seemed a nice enough place inside, if you are early enough you can grab something to eat of the breakfast menu that is served until 12 noon. Lunch menu is pretty simple with the usual sandwiches, panini's, salads & filled jacket potatoes, I went for the healthier option and went for the egg mayonnaise filled jacket potato with a coffee, pretty good value at £7.50. Great views over the bay from the dining area, would definitely come back & visit again.

The tiny restaurant has a few tables on the first floor and a few on the second floor. We sat on the second floor. Servers were nice. Quiet. I had to ask for a lot of things at different times (eg napkins, spoons, plates, water refill 2xs, etc) but I know they were busy. We ordered a plate that had 3 different grilled fish on it- it was good. Tiny pieces of fish but good. We also got a fried platter (eg fried shrimp) which was also good. I really liked the chips - my partner wasn't a fan- he said they were too mushy but that's how I like my chips. Tartar sauce is REALLY good. The toffee pudding was OUT OF THIS WORLD AMAZING.
