I came with a large group, so I couldn't switch rooms. My room smelled very musty, so the hotel person brought up some Febreeze to help with the smell.

They have a wide selection, much of which is on display and the rest on menu boards. It's prepared promptly and served to you on a tray - they even brought it to my table for me. As for the food quality, much of it is homemade, always impressive in such a remote town even during tourist season. The haddock chowder was a bit thin and lacked substantial fish bits, but I did cheat at the end and added some coffee cream and that enhanced it greatly. Mull mussels were on special and I was compelled to eat the island. I actually got a lot of mussels for my money, all delicious, and I drank the garlic wine sauce at the end. There are a couple of other places on the island with food. The smaller stores sold out by 4 pm, the only competitor to Martyrs is a hotel that felt hoity from the outside. I heartily recommend you choose the Bay for eating on Iona, and in fact I do recommend you grab a bite here before boarding a vessel off the island. The island deserves your pounds and Martyrs will make you glad you spent them.

Good and reasonably priced food, especially those £2.50 meat pies I can't seem to get enough of. The nice little bar area that has draft beers £3.50-4 pint.

I showed up at the appropriate time and was placed next to a very loud birthday party. This wouldn't ordinarily be a problem, but the venue is very small, only allowing for a handful of sittings each night. For the price I paid [over £80 for one person, including tip] I expected a bit better atmosphere. The meal was nice, though a bit over-priced, but the ambience really was not good. I come to Fionnphort every year, but have not been back to the Ninth Wave since my one and only visit there in 2012.

We split the Cod for dinner, and it was heavenly - beautifully seared, which perfectly cooked vegetables; the cod melted in our mouths like butter.

The squid was the best by a big margin and the only thing which stood out over what you might expect in most pubs. The fish was good, but standard. The scallops were also decent, but wanted to be seasoned in some way and thus wound up not being quite as good as the fish or squid. The squid in particular I think really benefitted from being salted and peppered. The chips were good, but again nothing particularly above what you might expect in a normal pub. That said, they were basically all the kids ate, so there's that. The whole thing gets a decent boost from being right on the pier in Fionnphort with a few picnic tables on the patio giving it a great place to eat with a view, but not enough to bump things overall to 5 stars.

Except I walked over there and found nothing, just open waterfront. Whoops. Fortunately, I walked right past this other open restaurant that also had fish & chips at a reasonable price, and more importantly, HAGGIS! I can tell you now, they should rename to Fish, Chips, and Haggis. Because this fried haggis sausage is da bomb. I think when they named that one sandwich "da bomb", they were wrong. It's this. Delicious haggis, perfectly deep fried, just the right amount of breading. Classic, timeless, Scotland. The dinner includes plenty of chips, light fried, not dripping with oil - some of the best I've ever had. So get that, not the single. In the end, the only downside is it's takeout-only. No room inside. Great service, great selection, great food. Do stop in when you come to Oban to head out to the wonderful North West isles. (Do all of this. Trust me. It's wonderful here.)
