The best restaurants serving British food in Central Scotland

We stopped here on the way to the Japanese Garden nearby and were so warmly greeted. The cafe is spotless and bright and the menu is varied. Our coffee and scones were delicious and the staff were a delight. We’d absolutely recommend this gem if you’re ever in the area.

Excellent hotel lovely period features. Everything worked. Helpful and friendly people Nice feel about the place Great family venue.

Chambre superbe. Cependant mauvaise isolation des chambres donc quand on tombe sur des fêtards 🥴. Fish and chips excellent surtout la purée de petits pois. Accueil chaleureux. J’ai adoré cette convivialité.

This is a lovely cafe with very friendly staff. The clootie dumpling was excellent. It reminded me of my grandmother's dumpling. So much so we took some as take away. I cannot praise this little gem highly enough.

Had lovely breakfast rolls for myself and my husband . A nice big pot of tea to share . Tasty food and not greasy at all .. would highly recommend a visit . All freshly cooked as well !!!

Been coming to Oban for many years, visited lots of pubs for food & drink in fantastic atmospheres. Never been in Coasters before however definitely won’t be back. We were only in for drinks and because of this we were made as welcome as a fart in a spacesuit by your gentleman server. Not even a please or thank you. Do yourselves a favour and head to Markie Dans. Welcoming and nice relaxed atmosphere, stayed there all afternoon and then enjoyed some food.

Absolutely brilliant weekend. Family time with sister brother in law, brother sister in law and sister’s sister in law and husband. Well that’s a bit of a tongue twister. We had a fabulous weekend together. Weather wasn’t great but the service and meals made up for it. Food was of the highest standard. Good quality and healthy home made recipe’s with plenty of it made our visit all the more special. Staff were very friendly and couldn’t do enough to make our stay enjoyable. Very clean with an emphasis on Covid 19 safety precautions. Every member of our group agreed that they would certainly go back for another visit, so we have booked rooms for the same time next year. A big thank you to the staff who worked so hard to make our stay so enjoyable. Margaret Anne.

We went here for an impromptu lunch today. We both had fish and chips. I'm not a chip fan so asked for a jacket potato with butter and this was not a problem. The battered fish was the best we've tasted in recent times. Beautiful and sparkling fresh with gorgeous big flakes. The owner told us it had only been delivered at 12 noon and it showed. The jacket potato was delicious and so were the chips The tartare sauce was great and so were the mushy peas. Completely flawless. For 2 generous portions and 2 diet cokes it cost £26 and it was worth every penny. We'll be back

Super fresh and beautifully cooked meal with great personal service. Took the dog in too , smashing place with super atmosphere

We only had coffee but it was really well made and not too expensive. There was a small range of fresh cakes. The rest of the menu looked good. The café is next to the marina so very convenient for that, but it is worth stopping of you are driving past. At the time of our visit the café was open Weds-Sun only, which may be a business necessity, but it is unlikely to help the business grow.

Amazing food & great baking. Lovely atmosphere and very friendly staff. Went back multiple times for lunch, breakfast & coffee.

Love this wee cafe. Coffee is lovely and cakes are just fabulous. Lunch is good too. Well worth a visit. Prices are very reasonable.

Was expecting great quality fresh food . But very disappointed . Looking forward to local mussels but off the menu . Scallops were fresh but the sauce let it down and the bread was stale and expensive . Both in the end had fish and chips , that was two very small pieces of fish each , couldn't hardly see any fish , most likely frozen due to the texture and appearance . Staff were excellent and beer was good

A fantastic brunch today. I had been given an itison voucher for my birthday for 2 brunch dishes and either 2 hot drinks or non alcoholic wine. We opted for an Americano and a tea, fantastic big cups, and an apple juice for my son. Ordered the Gourie Goucho and the travelling Scotsman for eating and my son insisted on Mac cheese which the kitchen were very accommodating with, even at 10am! All food was delicious and you can tell the quality in the ingredients as well as the banter. A fantastic place, where you you wait for quality fresh food. Brilliant, quirky spot.

Excellent lounge bar which apart from having some unusual beers/Cider also offers an excellent food menu. The food is really good, and both the Steak pie and haddock are highly recommended.
