"Can’t comment on the food as we rang up to book a table for my parents the following night. We were told we didn’t need to book, we could just come and get a table as there are usually tables available around 7pm. So we based our whole day around making sure we would be be in Bowmore on time. When we did get there, the owner basically tried to talk us out of eating there. Said he was too busy with takeaway orders and that we’d be waiting ages. I admire his honesty but would have been nice of him to tell us that he doesn’t really cater to people wanting to eat in. It’s in such a nice location that if he put a bit of effort into the aesthetic of the interior, he could become a hotspot for local and holiday diners."

"This hotel is the epitome of hospitality! The rooms were luxurious I loved the shower and the staff went above and beyond every day to make our stay there comfortable. They really take care with the breakfast as well! I've never had more delicious porridge! Before this stay I never would have thought porridge could be so memorable! The view from the dining room was spectacular morning and night. We had dinner there one evening and it was a delight as well. The menu had a lot of variety and all of the dishes we had were wonderful. While staying on Islay this hotel was our cozy little oasis and I can't recommend it enough!

"Located inside the Islay House hotel. This restaurant serves up top quality meals using only locally sourced ingredients and makes every item fresh to order. The menu changes depending on seasonal offerings and the head chef has zero problem with special requests. We opted for the rare steak salad and seafood chowder as starters and were blown away by the taste, presentation and fair pricing. For our main dishes, we both chose the pan-seared salmon. It was cooked to perfection and served atop a mound of mashed potatoes, a sprinkling of peas and came with a dozen mussels. Amazing. For dessert, the creme brûlée was divine; I would bathe in it if I could. The restaurant is open every day of the week and is open to both hotel guests and non-guests alike. The dining room is set inside the quaint hotel, built in 1677 and is served by candlelight. In other words, you won't find a better ambience."
