Tullie Inn, Balloch

Beer range and quality is nothing special. They had a Houston beer when we called in but we had to send it back, and with Deuchars also off there were no Scottish real ales available at all.

On the plus side the food was fine and the staff were really, really polite and friendly. I'd definitely call in again - if only to see if the beer side of things has picked up again.

The Ship, Solva

Visited the curry house restaurant recently - the food and service were top-notch.

Only passed through the bar and it looked like there were just three fairly unadventurous real ales available. I chose the Jennings Cumberland (you can choose from the bar for consumption in the restaurant) and it was OK.

The best real ale + curry choice in quite a large area I imagine !

The Harbour Inn, Solva

Location is lovely, service so-so, but the beer (Rev. James) and food were both pretty good.

The dining area on the right as you enter lacked atmosphere (at lunchtime) - the more traditional, cosy room on the left was much more appealing.
