Staff were friendly and service was good. Started with garlic bread and a pint, then I had the steak and black pudding pie while my wife had the Mongolian beer. Both very tasty and served piping hot. Cleaned the plates! A sundae for desert was a good way to finish. Regular bar in the other room was crowded and noisy - seems like a popular meeting spot. Altogether a very pleasant experience

The Lochy was fine for what it was for us--a very casual, very basic pub dinner after a relatively…read morelong travel day from Edinburgh--but it was probably the most average food we had of nine or ten days of mostly great eating in Scotland. Getting here was the most special, maybe. Having driven a car on the left for the first time ever on this day, wanting to have a beer or two, and staying in an apartment in nearby Corpach, we didn't really want to drive on this evening. On a beautiful evening, we investigated the Corpach waterfront (the end (the beginning?) of the Caledonian Canal) and took in the unbelievable views along the waterfront path (the Corpach shipwreck, Ben Nevis, the loch, and so on), and we wandered on over to Caol and the Lochy. (We returned via the canal path itself; you can jump on just across the street from the Lochy.) I see from Tripadvisor that plenty of tourists get to the Lochy, but it sure seemed like a locals' spot on the night we were there, with a number of families present. Although the outside of the place suggests that it might contain a dim warren of rooms, it's actually a couple of brightly lit larger rooms with a bar in the middle, where you order your food and drinks. Venison burger for me was pretty tasty--although it came only with caramalized onions and goat cheese, which left things a little dry--and the wife's fish and chips were OK. Like I say above, the food was fine, but not especially memorable. Several beers were on draft, and everything was reasonably priced. 3.5 stars.

We were on a day tour to the Highlands, and Loch Ness was our third -- and main -- stop. We had…read morearound 2-2.5 hours there and were free to explore and grab lunch wherever we liked. After roaming around the town and a tiring day out, being South Asian, we were craving some rice. We spotted this place and decided to give it a try. We walked in and were greeted with warm, smiley faces. The restaurant was almost empty, which made us a little unsure at first -- but we decided to settle down and order: * Chicken Szechuan * House Special Fried Rice And wow... what a meal it turned out to be! The Chicken Szechuan was absolute gold -- perfectly cooked, loaded with veggies, and coated in flavorful sauces. The House Special Fried Rice was good too -- though I personally would have loved it a bit spicier or with more veggies. The pricing was reasonable (thankfully not £17 for a single basic meal ). Service was very good -- simple, polite, and efficient. The décor was typical Chinese style, nothing fancy, just a couple of servers managing the place Overall: simple place, tasty food, good service. 4/5

I had the fish and chips, which having tried the same dish over at the Geographer, I can't say they're the best in town, but it is a good gluten free option for those who need it. The fresh vegetables were also nice. We were seated upstairs in the restaurant but ordered draft beers from the bar downstairs. The restaurant waitresses regularly make the trek up and down to serve patrons, and I was very impressed by their speed and stamina. I was also impressed by the seating arrangement in the restaurant--it was a pretty efficient use of space while still feeing quite cozy. Still, be sure to book a table or arrive ahead of the rush, as this place fills up fast.

She looked us dead in our gelatinous marbles and said, "No." AND THEN FULLY WALKED AWAY. We got a bad coffee and a beer from the bartender and left the money on the table. Keep the change. If we waited for change we would probably still be there. Ended up going to McDonalds. It felt stupid to be two Americans going to McDonalds in the middle of the Scottish highlands but this place wanted us to starve. DO NOT COME HERE. SLEEP IN YOUR CAR. EAT A CAN OF BEANS. YOU WILL NOT HAVE A GOOD TIME HERE.
