I recently spent a very pleasant afternoon in this large, multi roomed, pub/restaurant. The pub is split into a cosy public bar and a larger and lighter main bar which houses the main dining space. The stone interior is complimented by muted lighting which creates a lovely ambiance and those who were eating and drinking all seemed to be in good spirits whilst I was there. Two ales from the Fyne brewery were on and the Highlander was in fantastic shape and very drinkable. They also had a vast whiskey selection available. We ate here as well and the food was also excellent. I tried the steak pie, which was full of succulent chunks of steak with a lovely homemade pastry. Wetherspoons this is not. Most meals came in at very reasonable prices given the quality of the food. There was a music festival being hosted at the Hotel when we were there, with a small stage erected in the garden and a good crowd enjoying the performers. Those who stayed inside were able to enjoy muted coverage of the Grand Prix in the public bar. The staff were very friendly and patient and friends who stayed in the hotel itself over the weekend said the rooms were very good as well. Not too many negatives to report. I really enjoyed this place and it seems to be well respected by the locals as well. I would have no hesitation recommending this pub to anyone who is going to be in or around Inveraray.
