Good Pub Guide Recommended

Wonderfully remote pub on famously scenic route on west coast; particularly friendly welcome, real ales, and good seafood; bedrooms
The exhilarating west coast drive to get here over the Beallach na Ba Pass, the pass of the cattle, is one of the highest in Britain and not to be tried in bad weather. The pub itself is splendidly remote and tables in the nice shoreside garden enjoy magnificent views across to the Cuillin Hills on Skye. The no-nonsense, welcoming bar (extremely busy in high season with a good mix of locals and visitors) has a woodburning stove, exposed stone walls and upholstered pine furnishings on the stone floor; Isle of Skye Red Cuillin and Young Pretender on handpump and over 50 malt whiskies; pool (winter only), TV, and board games; some disabled facilities. The alternative route here, along the single-track lane winding round the coast from just south of Shieldaig, has equally glorious sea loch and then sea views nearly all the way.

Good Pub Guide Food

It's the excellent local fish and seafood that stands out: prawns or squat lobsters in chilli and mango, fresh battered haddock, dressed crab salad, king scallops with crispy bacon and garlic, and a seafood platter. They also offer sandwiches, local haggis in Drambuie and cream, chicken green thai curry, gammon and eggs, and sirloin steak with caramelised onions and mushrooms.

Bar food times: 12 - 9
