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).

It's a cute little stop with shops and a cafe. Anyways, we would alway stop and grab a snack and restroom break at the Green Welly. But this visit, we wanted to try someplace else. As it's next door, we just walked over. It's a little inn that has a little restaurant and bar inside. There's a cute little outdoor seating area which is great for the dry season. Inside you definitely feel the Scottish vibe with the decor and obviously drinks. Food is served which you have to order at the bar. It was little of a back and fourth situation when ordering as one of us asked if they could just not add things to the meal. We were told that they only had one chef and would need to check with him. I get it, but is it a big ordeal if you asked to not have things that came with the meal. I've never worked in the food industry so I cant say much. But to asked if they could not add things to the dish would seemed easy and saved things from going to waste. It wasn't even substituting, it was can we not have it. Anyways. Food wise, we had the traditional breakfast, an order of chips, poppers, and steak sandwich and a cup of soup. Food was ok, it did the trick as we were hungry. I do like a classic breakfast which I did enjoyed. The poppers were ok, nothing major to rave about. Streak sandwich was ok. I think it was a Philly steak sandwich of some sort and served with cole slaw and fries. Overall, food was ok. Staff were ok with a little confusion during the ordering process. Would I come back, I'm sure I would. But it was nice to at least have tried it.

It's such a great atmosphere with a cozy area to eat in front of a wood-burning cast iron stove. It's a very pet friendly place as well. We saw a cute doggie enjoying the warmth inside the bar. We ordered the chicken casserole special. It was good despite the price being a little too high for what it was. I'd expect to have a puff pastry on top of it for that price. Although, it was very tasty even though the presentation was not all that great. It was served with mash potatoes instead of chips. It was good. They have a big variety of local taps. I went with the Jock Pumpkinhead Stout from Loch Lomond Brewery while my husband had the Man O'Hoy from Orkney Brewery. We were very happy with our local brew selections. It was a very nice atmosphere for lunch. If you're a Harry Potter fan, then you may want to take that hike from here to the filming location of Hagrid's Hut. The pathway up to the hut is just a short walk from the inn. The inn itself is kind of unique with the ice ax and ski décor. It reminded me a little of Ketchikan for some reason. Maybe it was the 5 Points of Contact photo that I saw by Peter Daynes. There's also a display of ice axes designed by Hamish MacInnes. Our tour guide in Ketchikan was coincidentally named Hamish. Wow, everything does come around full circle. It all turned out to be a nice lunch experience in the Highlands.
