Faethers Bar @ Argyll Arms Hotel, Campbeltown

Around the corner from the main Hotel entrance is its public bar, Feathers, which I would rate as the best pub in Campbeltown. It actually consists of a small, cosy bar and a large adjacent lounge which almost becomes a disco on Saturday nights. Both are well appointed, comfortable, subtly lit and very popular. The Feathers is also one of the town’s least expensive drinking options, with a pint of John Smith’s selling at only £2.60. Fosters, Carlsberg and Tennent’s lagers and Guinness are also on draught. On the wall behind the bar counter, there is a signed photograph of Paul McCartney, which suggests that he might have popped in for a pint at some point, as his Mull of Kintyre farmhouse is just outside Campbeltown.

Nice food, very nice bar stuff, and my newly adopted local!
