We have dined at the Trafalgar several times but never got round to writing a review, which is criminal neglect. The ambience of the restaurant is relaxed, and the last time we visited, mein host Wolfi surpassed himself with the background music -- several Otis Redding songs instantly spring to mind. He is attentive, welcoming, extremely professional and very funny;... More

I am not a young person, so when I say that this was the best meal I have ever had, it is based on 40 plus years of research. Having lived on the island for 9 years, I am ashamed to say that this was my first visit to the Trafalgar. For many years I have listened to 'locals' talking... More

On our recent visit to Arran we dined at The Trafalgar Restaurant, Whiting Bay. This surpassed our expectations. The food was cooked to perfection, steak, sea-bass, venison, such quality. Mine host Wolfi, with his quirky humour added to the ambience of our visit. Gege, his wife, must take the credit for cooking the totally delicious food. A "must" if visiting... More

My (blind) husband and I never had the chance to try the food in this place, when we turned up for our booked slot, the owner would not let us come in with our guidedog. When I pointed out to him that by law he could not refuse us entry he suddenly remembered that everybody in the house was allergic... More

Just back from a 2 day trip to Whiting Bay on Isle of Arran. Atet dinner both nights at the Trafalgar. Food was absolutely fantastic, the Scallops especially. Best of all was the owner's really funny quips. Wolfi is a must to meet as is Gege his wife. Plenty of locals and tourists. Most tourists return for a second meal.... More

A quirky family run restaurant, with unique decor, relaxing atmosphere and most importantly, fresh and well cooked food. My partner and I visited in low season in March. Don't be put off by the bad reviews displayed on the board outside (the owner has a special sense of humour), or the rubber ducks in the garden. It's a really special... More
