| There are apparently only two pumps, serving varying Scottish ales . However, a careful hop-hunter will find and a third, usually serving ale from the Plockton Brewery , in the locals bar at the back. For some strange reason, they don't seem to publicise this fact. Staff not particularly friendly and, after charging a ridiculous price for an admittedly lovely pint of Comarty Something, tried to charge �1 for access to wi-fi, explaining that this is the norm in these parts. Bollox it is, thought I and repaired to the Plockton INN which is much more friendly and more reasonably priced (and btw the wi-fi is free). Lupulus - 28 Aug 2012 14:32 |
| In spite of it�s name and the fact that accommodation is also on offer here, this nonetheless manages to provide a surprisingly �pubby� feel. It�s an unusual looking building built out of shiny black brick, and there is a small beer garden opposite with great views over the water. Inside there is further exposed black brickwork, and wood cladding elsewhere. The wood cladding extends to the ceiling in the front half of the bar. Tartan carpet graces the floor, there is a small wood burning stove, and plenty of brassware around, plus rather unusually, several coins stuck to the wall. There is red leather button back bench seating around the perimiter, with adjacent tables and chairs. It is very food orientated however, and on a recent Monday night visit, every single table was reserved. The only place to sit for a drink was at one of the bar stools or in the garden. Beers on tap were Hebridean�s Clansman Ale and Cairngorm�s Trade Winds. The solitary cider was Strongbow, unfortunately. There was also a �Malt of the Month� advertised.
