Balmoral Inn @ Balmoral Hotel, Oban

The Balmoral Inn, which is the name of the bar itself, remains much as I found it five years ago. It's the same rough and ready pub that it was then and doesn't appear to have changed at all. Guinness now sells at £3.30 a pint and Tennent's lager at £3.10. Stella Artois, Caledonia Best and Magners cider are also on draught. The sign behind the bar saying "Soup of the Day - Lager" is a good indicator of the Inn's philosophy.

New music bar upstairs called Foleys always good for a visit good mix of tourists and locals,:-)

This is like the Tardis is reverse, as it looks quite substantial from the outside but is tiny inside. It’s actually part of the Balmoral Hotel, but you wouldn’t think so. The very basic bar was full of drunk people when I visited, and that was on a Monday night. Given the variety of drinking options available in Oban, this is not somewhere I could recommend.
