This is a quaint 200 year old converted barn at the foot of Ben Nevis. Simple in style but good quality hearty food, lots of local options. Great views from the huge window towards the mountains. Nice wood burning stove. Huge monastry like tables. more

We were delighted to find the Ben Nevis Inn after a long hike up Ben Nevis. It is located near the footpath in a 200-year old barn and has the atmosphere of an Alpine ski chalet. The roaring fire was brought welcome relief after the foreboding mountain on a cold/rainy/windy day. It was was voted best pub of the year... more

We took my father to the Ben nevis Inn for dinner on his birthday with great expectations of having a great time, the place has a great reputation. The setting is fantastic and the people were lovely, the only problem was the food. Two of us had the mussels to start, with my father having soup. The white wine sauce... more

The INN is a beautifully restored 200 year old barn. Upon entering you would be mistaken in thinking you have walked into a grand designs project. This... more

When you approach you don't think that this is a place where you will be served quality food, as it appears to be a simple hikers inn. Well I can assure that the food is of the highest quality and is reasonably priced. My wife had the salmon and thought it was better than the Crannog! Thoroughly recommended and don't... more

Restaurant is located upstairs and well worth a visit. Excellent food, generous portions and excellent customer service. Be warned - if you arrive after 6:30pm, there's a chance you may have a short wait in the bar or lounge downstairs. No a hardship if you fancy a drink. I was a bit disapointed with the real ale on offer -... more

With this Inn being the only one around the prices were very steep indeed. A soup and bread roll for £3.60 and a pint for over £3 aswell, I thought a bit too much. Place was nice though. more
