David Ross left this review about The Tarbet Hotel
A grand and imposing old hotel, which dwarfs all the other buildings in this miniscule hamlet, the Tarbet Hotel is relatively expensive for the area, charging £3 for a pint of ordinary lager. There is a residents only lounge and the “Ben Reoch Lounge,” (named after the nearby mountain) which is open to the public but not what I’d call a public bar. The picturesque setting, on the west shore of Loch Lomond, with a leafy mountain backdrop, is best appreciated from the small, brick paved, beer garden at the front. Unfortunately, this looks on to a very busy road junction, so it’s not exactly peaceful. The food smelt nice, but the prices looked on the expensive side. This is a useful stopping off point on the Loch Lomond road, with a great setting, but not somewhere I found appealing as a pub.
