Super restaurant avec un décor très cosy. Nous avons dégusté des plats raffinés et gouteux à l'inverse de ce qui peut être dit sur la cuisine anglaise, un accueil charmant. Je le conseille fortement.

We stopped by to have some lunch after spending the morning around loch lomond at around 4,30 pm and got told by the lady in the entrance (seemed to be a manager or supervisor) that they were full, so we left. Once outside, we just checked in their website to see if they have any availability for later as she never said, and there was tables available from 5 pm, just 30 mins after we went, so we booked a table. When we came back, the same woman looked at us kind of confused but we told her we had a booking so she just took us to the middle of the dining room and pointed at a table at the very end and said that’s your table and left. When she brought us the drinks, she left the tray with the drinks on the corner of our table and left. The rest of the service was done by a very nice young lady that treated us fantastically. We ordered a couple of starters and 4 main (4 beef lasagne). We were served the starters around 15-20 mins after ordering and when we finished them, the same woman from the beginning came to tell us they only have 1 lasagna left so we had to order something else (I am sure this is something they could have let us know a bit earlier, but alright), so we had to wait another 20 mins to have the main. A bit of a disappointment considering how beautiful is the place and the food was delicious.

He ido a este restaurante con mi familia y el trato por parte de la señora que nos ha atendido en la puerta no ha sido muy agradable. Cuando hemos llegado nos ha dicho que no tenían disponibilidad, de una forma bastante poco amable, considerando que debía tratarse de una supervisora o jefa por qué no llevaba uniforme o delantal como el resto de los trabajadores, por lo que nos hemos ido.

Nice atmosphere, friendly service, a bit on the slow side but we were in no hurry. Food was competent standard pub fare, none the worse for that.

Never actually had anything to eat or drink as the manageress was so rude and unwelcoming we just left. The Tullie Inn across the bridge was superb though !

Came in for a drink and possibly food. Found a nice table for two in the bar. Was rudely turfed out by a lady I’m assuming was the Manager telling me it was reserved. If you are going to reserve tables then mark them reserved. She was extremely rude to myself and my husband who was waiting at the bar. If it’s table service only, appropriate signage or staff at the door is the usual practice

My friend and I visited 3 times in 3 days which already says a lot I think. The atmosphere and service was great and although there aren't loads of vegan options, the vegan butternut and chickpea burger I had was delicious. One of the best vegan burgers I've had. The location I great too and very important for me - it's very dog friendly 🐾 will definitely be back

Very cute pub with comfy rooms, some of the best steak and ale pie I've had in a whole :)

The lady at the door was rude and gave us a bad look as soon as we walked in . Telling us we can't have a drink even though we could clearly see tables available next door. . Felt very unwelcoming . No smile no sorry no thank you . Such a shame

Came to Bolloch house for a nights stay and some food. The menu is great and the food was too. I’d come here again. The staff make the experience really nice. Great at the bar, excellent table service - lad called Jamie was nice and the man with a foreign accent he’s a right laugh

Got ignored by staff when waiting to be seated so went to tullie inn instead. Thought this was rude/arrogant.

Very disappointed. We had paid a deposit for the valentine's treat menu (which was only available for 14th and 15th of Feb). Dinner was booked for 7:45pm on the 14th (the first dinner service of the set menu) to be told that they had run out of the Surf and Turf option. Quite frankly - I don't think there's any excuse for this. Either there was an unprecedented surge of customers buying the surf and turf or the establishment hadn't bought enough - intentionally perhaps? (our server told us they 'didn't have that many to begin with'). Again, really disappointed because I'd hoped for better but feel mislead and, again, this was actual valentines night. Terrible customer experience, feel really let down.

Excellent, friendly and efficient service, along with really well prepared and presented dishes. Our server, Megan, was particularly great and made us feel totally at ease and welcome

My group popped in for a small break after our boat tour; the restaurant was warm and welcoming and has a cozy and traditional homely atmosphere. Food and drink were delicious and the staff were very lovely, friendly and attentive. Dogs are welcome too! I would (and will) happily return here again!

Divine food, wonderful service, what a warm welcome we received. Gotta try the hog roast sausage roll, perfect for a cold winter's day! 💛
