Ghillies in Argyll & Bute

Popped in to the cafe bar for some lunch on a cold day. The soup was nice and warming and the toastie was good :)

The food presentation was good and the ingredients had a fresh and home cooked.feel to them. We enjoyed veg options of macaroni cheese, veggy burger and omelette and various tasty puddings. Meat and fish dishes also available. The floor space is bigger than many of the nearby eateries and so felt more spacious and safer for social distancing.

Oh dear after reading good reviews, we hoped for a pleasant meal. We expected a reduced menu and fewer tables but the waitress made no effort to welcome us and it was lacking in atmosphere . The menu was pedestrian, the only seafood was scallops with black pudding and chorizo and the fish and chips.No wine list was offered. Even with Covid 19 'they need to try harder

Popped in for a quick lunch today with two friends. The leek & potato soup was delicious, as was one friend's lentil soup! We each enjoyed our cheese toastie orders, two with tomato and one with onion. Sadly, they served the onion one to the wrong person, so we each only enjoyed the correct second slice! Meal was still fine, though.

Excellent service. Pleasant staff. Well thought out Covid precautions (but maybe at the expense of atmosphere) Varied menu, great food at a reasonable price. Only minus. House wine was on the expensive side.

The food was lovely. I had chilli rice sour cream. Hubby and brother in law had fish chips and salad. My sister had a warm chicken salad. Two glasses wine and two beers. Cheers.🥂🍻

Food was excellent! I had the seafood platter, mozzarella garlic bread and a pint of poretti and honestly cant fault it. It came to 21.90 which was great value in my opinion. I only give it 4 stars as I had to wait a while to be seated and the restaurant was particular quiet. I also was not asked whether I wanted a dessert and I waited a while after eating, I went and got an ice cream elsewhere but they did seem short staffed or lack of proactive staff. The older gentleman (the manager I believe) was friendly and attentive. Would visit again and reccomend.

We enjoyed good Food with beautiful view of isle of bute lake area! The sitting arrangement and the staff is very kind to give you the best place to enjoy your food. Sea food was quite fresh and the quantity was worth the money and view too..would recommend this place for dinner time as it's lit in the night

One of my favourite places to visit for lunch or dinner and sometimes for a cocktail or two a well stocked bar a very good menu. The vegan and vegetarian selection has recently been upgraded I hope that continues being vegetarian I'd like to see more gluten free meals though. And I wish they didn't bang the coffee filter on the sink it's very loud when your trying to have a conversation or just want a quite lunch. Otherwise fantastic I'm back in this afternoon for lunch if I can get a seat although alternative seating is up the stairs I do believe.

Reasonable food, good value. Decor and atmosphere could be better but we did go in early. I had a fish platter for my main which was a massive portion for the price and very tasty
