The best restaurants Islay

This restaurant of the Bowmore distillery and famous works a careful cuisine based on fresh products. The presentation and service are the object of all attention, while the customers delight in quality seafood, fish and meat. Everything is fresh and local, for generous flavours. The decoration surfs on a maritime theme and the success of the place means that tables can quickly run out. The establishment also offers modern and comfortable rooms in B&B, as well as cottages for rent.

Bridgend's hotel, at the crossroads of Islay, is home to one of the best pub-restaurants on the island. The bar area - named Katie's Bar after their retired octogenarian barmaid - is more relaxed and offers a cheaper menu, while the restaurant is more classic and sophisticated. They both cook with local and seasonal produce. Whatever you choose, the dishes are well-presented and the content is successful, with inventive local dishes to satisfy all tastes. In the evenings, reservation is recommended.
