The Clachaig Inn, Clachaig

Good accomodation but getting very lack lustre now. The place trades on it's walker friendly attitude but a recent incident has tarred my opinion of the place. A climber, who had obviously fallen was refused food at 9pm after just staggering in off the hill. Not very good!

The menu is very dated and is not of the best quality and the beer is very hit and miss - often they run all the beers down so there are only one or two real ales on.

Excellent selection of malts - one of the best I've seen and the prices are not to steep.

A warm but often very smokey place (soon to change with new legislation), there is not sufficient seating to accommodate diners on busy days.

The place seems to trade on it's reputation - prices are generally very high (36.00 per person per night) as are the food prices. Combine that with the current attitude of the staff and the lack of seating means that the pub soon won't have a reputation to trade on. Ally that to the fact that there are some other fine pubs and eating houses close by means that the standards of the place need to pick up.
