This inn has a delightful spot overlooking the bay and a cosy pubby feel inside with outside seating for warmer weather. The food here is on a different level. Fantastic menu, very different to the usual suspects and particularly great seafood, although nothing disappointed. Cleared...plates all round. We'll be back.More

Booked table for lunch .I had tempura prawns and my husband had the mussels ,both excellent. We both had cod with black pudding for main course. It was great or awesome as my husband said. Service great . Highly recommend it !

Ate here a couple of times when staying locally. Great local seafood dominates the menu and it's well cooked, and reasonably priced. Quite a wide ranging menu, and plenty for the non-fish lover to choose from too - curries particularly good. The inn is very...popular, because of its food and its lovely location overlooking the stunning bay. Good local beers, nice service and generally a very pleasant experience. Only downside/recommendation is to check where you're eating - on our second visit, we booked that day, but discovered we'd been put outside on the covered terrace. That can be absolutely lovely, especially for a sunny lunchtime, but when it's evening, it's hosing it down, there's a bit of a breeze, and you end up wearing your anorak, it's not great. Galling to then find reserved tables inside that were free for another hour after we'd finished... Had we been inside we'd probably have stayed for another drink/pudding, but as it was, we headed home to the warm. Next time we tried to book (which shows you we really liked the food, just not outside on a wet night), only outside was available, so we ate elsewhere.More

After a beautiful scenic drive, we went at 17:10pm first time to this restaurant, ending our long weekend. We were smartly dressed came in a high end BMW. The place was empty bar a couple at the bar with their dog, every table had a...reserved sign on it. Well the angry owner was so rude when we asked for a table. Saying we should have booked, next time book before you come. You are lucky as we have a table. Yes you felt like something he trod on. He pointed to a reserved table for us to sit at. Two other couples came, no booked table, each had dogs, which the owner petted quite a lot. Without washing hands he gave them cutlery and drinks. Our waitress brought drinks and took our order. However my husband passed his ale to me as I had a soft drink and the ale was not to his taste. No sign of our waitress, he went up to the bar to order a drink. The owner appeared and told him again in an angry tone, sit down you should not come to the bar. As the barmaid had already served him his drink, my husband sat down with it. Waitress was very nice, as was the food. But this rude little man ruined what should have been a lovely last meal. The tables remained empty way after we finished our meal. So even if you are well presented, beware of this little man.More

Excellent food and service at reasonable prices. We will certainly be back to enjoy more of the same.

High quality meal with friendly, efficient service on the edge of a very pretty bay. Our third visit over three years - very enjoyable each time. Hope to return.

Gorgeous little inn, great food and beer very reasonably priced with a menu for everyone. We had the venison and the lobster and they were both delicious! Very friendly staff, beautiful views over the bay to watch the gannets diving. Hope to be back again...soon.More

We booked a table for 4 in the bar area, where we were allowed to take our dog. The staff were friendly and helpful, the food excellent and the drinks reasonably priced. We are only in Tayvallich for a week but have booked a table...for our last night. I would recommend this restaurant as an informal place to eat which has a great atmosphere. It was a wee bit loud so if you are looking for a quiet more formal experience perhaps you should look elsewhere.More

It was okay BUT when we arrived some of us had to order after other diners on our table because the chef was "stressed." Which is understandable but we were still not impressed. Other than this unfortunate event the food was very enjoyable BUT when...the bill came all of us were in SHOCK as of the outstanding price.More

A great place for early (from 5pm) or later. Brilliant , friendly service, food was excellent. 5*s

Friendly, helpful, diligent. Great food. Make sure you book. No faults and (pre-warned) went to the bother of providing a list of dishes without onions and garlic. Really nice evening. Thank you.

We’ve dined at The Tayvallich Inn previously and never been disappointed. Visited for dinner on Saturday night and the food, the staff and the natural, lively atmosphere excelled again! The staff were very friendly and attentive. Esther, was a star and looked after us so...well. Danny managed the busy evening effortlessly and made time for everyone, top marks. Pedro, also added his personal touch to the evening too. The food was exceptional. The hand dived scallops were sweet, plump and local, so good. The mussels also were excellent. No surprise but the main courses didn’t disappoint either. Venison superb, cod fillet beautifully cooked and flavoursome. We finished with espresso martinis which were 👌 The Tayvallich Inn is indeed a hidden gem in a stunning part of the world. Very well worth a trip to find out for yourself!More
