I also heard that Craigard House has a great menu, if you are looking for an upscale kind of meal. The last time I ate in the White Hart it was pretty decent. The service in the Argyll Hotel is atrocious, so don't go in there if you especially hungry! There is also small cafe down the front that is pretty good too!

I believe The Argyll's food is pretty good at mo, the problem appears to be with the management :shock:
I have been to The Glen in Carradale a couple of times in recent weeks and it was very nice, both service and food. :)
Had a rogan josh from Motas on friday night.....never again. That meal never saw a tomato, the colour was straight from a lab :(
There’s no place like home.......

Yes, the food in the Argyll is quite good especially the high tea, well worth the money, but the new owners need to improve on their people skills. Not very friendly.

Foncies is great for lunch and if you like home-made cakes, meringues,etc then this is the place to go.

For a more formal dinner then I can highly recommend Dalnaspidal, Tangy. Lovely setting with excellent food and service.

Dalnaspidal is excellent as is Dunvalanree in Carradale.

Bit further from the town but nearer you Kintyre Lad, The West Loch Hotel south of Tarbert is excellent too. Actually the restaurants in Tarbert on the whole put Campbeltown to shame.

Sounds like a batch of Square Slice Dedalus made at Saddell St Butchers. Neon pink as I recall.
OOH did they knock down McCaigs folly.....

Been meaning to try both of these. We had a nice meal at the Grey Gull last night on the way home from Oban but that is a bit further ahead.

I agree with abbey craig.... Muneroy Tearoom is a fantastic place to eat! I've been there a few times and thoroughly enjoyed it - lovely meals and yummy home-baking!!!
