The food was very well prepared and highly enjoyable.The atmosphere is very relaxing and the decor/cleanliness is excellent.This is a wonderful place to eat, and should not be missed.

This was a good recommendation from a local. A very pleasant, nicely furnished and decorated room which offered us the distinct advantage that it was a dog friendly area of the restaurant. Notwithstanding that we were separated from the main restaurant, the service was attentive and the food and wines well received. We would definitely return to investigate the menu further.

My husband and I recently visited Arran and found ourselves in Crofters 2 out of the 3 days we were there - we went for lunch the first time and it was so delicious that we went back the next day (I particularly recommend the cullen skink - exactly what I needed after a brisk walk to Brodick Castle!). The atmosphere is really lovely and the staff were super friendly. All the food we tried was delicious and I would certainly recommend a visit if you're in the area.

We chose this restaurant for lunch during our visit to the Isle of Arran based on TripAdvisor reviews. The menu choice was really imaginative and perfect for a casual lunch. We had garlic mushrooms and goats cheese on toast and Cullen Skink, both were absolutely delicious. Highly recommended!
4. eighteen69

eighteen69 is Auchrannieâs Scottish tapas restaurant serving a wide range of small plates in a relaxed, informal environment. The restaurant is located in the glasshouse and lounges of the Country House Hotel. Customers are encouraged to choose and share
Reviewed By Duquesadiner
This restaurant is part of the Auchrannie estate and located in what is the original hotel. There has been a lot of money spent on the surroundings, both in this place and the two other restaurants on site. Eighteen69 offers smaller plates at good prices, there is enough to satisfy you and the flavours are good. The place is warm and welcoming and well appointed. Be aware that now we are into the winter season, it closes a couple of days during the week, something to be mindful of if you were thinking of eating here and are disappointed when you turn up. Well worth a visit though.Dear Duquesadiner,Thank you so much for your great review and lovely compliments on eighteen69 Restaurant. We are very happy indeed that you enjoyed the warm and welcoming ambience as well as the super tasty, small plate Scottish inspired dishes.Thank you again for sharing your feedback and we hope to see you back again soon!Kind regards,Carol AGuest Services Manager

2. The Stags Pavilion Restaurant

Traditional home cooked Scottish/Italian food with locally sourced produce seafood a speciality this is a B.Y.O.B restaurant
Reviewed By Kelly D
We were warned in advance that it's hard to get a table at The Stags Pavilion, so book well in advance (weeks) so you're not disappointed. It's a fairly simple set-up, a smallish restaurant in an old pavilion, which has been done up to feel homely, comfortable and welcoming. With a very talented Italian chef in the kitchen and his wonderfully friendly and accommodating wife Valerie out front, this dynamic duo really know how to run a restaurant. We chose from the vegetarian/vegan menu, which is extensive, and were bowled over by the flavours, the portion size and the great value for money. Highly recommended!!
