Hands down some of the best food start to finish we had while we trekked through the entire county of Scotland. Highly recommend enjoying a meal here.

Also the pork belly with scallops the bomb. Great choice recommended by our hosts at Portenellan Farm.

They let us stay after we were done with dinner, and just moved us around the restaurant so that we had a place to sit and wait.

It's a true example of Scottish friendliness, with yummy food that is a cherry too.

On the night I first visited there where a group of guys playing fiddles and accordions and singing great Scottish music. The barman (Mick I think he was called) was very helpful in telling us where to visit in the surrounding areas. We went back in at the end of our 10 day visit to Scotland and not only did he remember us, he remembered what we drank. Now THAT is a good pub. That night I tried the Malt of the month it was great value at £3.10 of a large (235ml) of superb malt. Since returning to London I have told many, many friend to visit Largs and The Royal Oak To my mind a 5 star Pub with 5 Star staff.

We stayed here for 2 nights as part of our hike of the West Highland Way, and had the best time here! The staff was wonderful (although it's obvious that they were all horse thieves, pirates and highway men in an earlier life, they were so friendly and helpful, they made us feel very welcome). The food was great (I'm still dreaming about that delicious steak and Guinness pie). The atmosphere made you feel like you'd stepped back in time-- lamp light and muskets and stuffed puffins and a bear in a Drovers t-shirt and kilt. OK, maybe not TOTALLY historically accurate, but history mixed with wit and a sense of fun. They tell me this inn is haunted. It must be by friendly, fun-loving spirits. On our first night there was live music at the bar. We enjoyed the singer/ guitar & harmonica player very much, but it all kicked up a notch when he got the whole room to join in on the singing. Everyone was clapping, stomping and pounding the table, while belting out a rousing rendition of "The Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond". I can't remember enjoying a meal more. On our second night there, the power went out (thank you, Hurricane Amy). The staff showed that although they are retired horse thieves and pirates, they take their current jobs in hospitality very seriously. They could not complete cooking of the evening meals, so it was a quick pivot to sandwiches for all. They handled it with professionalism and grace that made the inconvenience part of the adventure (as one staff member quipped, it was all part of the haunted experience). Breakfast, too, was pulled together with what was available and ingenuity, as they made instant coffee and tea with water heated on the wood stove, and we feasted on cold cereal and granola bars. But as the staff met the challenges with good humor and made the best effort to make it a good experience for the guests, we walked away with an abundance of good memories and an enduring fondness for the Drovers Inn (and its resident horse thieves, pirates and highway men).
