Restaurants in Isle Of Arran

  1. Lighthouse Tearoom & Bunkhouse

    Calling itself a tearoom is being coy! The restaurant here has an extensive menu, great desserts and outdoor seating, all in a very, very blue lighthouse theme. It’s getting quite a name for its excellent dishes (such as baked whole seabass stuffed with lime and coriander) using seasonal produce. Book in advance for dinner.

    Catacol Bay Hotel

    Catacol Bay Hotel Two miles from Lochranza, this bar does great food. The Sunday buffet for £10 (over 60s – £7) is famous, and the cheery service makes you feel like a local. With its snug bar, sunny beer garden, frequent live music and great beers on tap, it’s the best pub on the island.

    Drift Inn

    There are few better places to be on the island on a sunny day than the beer garden at this child-friendly hotel, ploughing your way through an excellent bar meal while gazing over to Holy Island. There are pub faves and genuine Angus beef burgers, with generous portions all round.

    Creelers

    Creelers is likely to close in the near future, but if it’s still going when you read this, get on the phone and book a table. Situated 1.5 miles north of Brodick, it’s Arran’s top choice for fresh seafood. It’s not licensed, so bring a bottle.

    Breadalbane Hotel

    Good home-cooked food is served here, and you can dine by the fire on blustery nights or on the decking overlooking the water if the sun is shining. If you want to drown out the sound of your chomping, give the jukebox a whirl.

    Ormidale Hotel

    This hotel has decent bar food. Dishes change regularly, but there are always some good vegetarian options, and daily specials. Quantities and value-for-money are high, and Arran beers are on tap.

    Brodick Bar & Brasserie

    By the post office, this is a good choice for families (high chairs are available) and the older crowd, particularly if you like tucking into pizzas.
