Eating & Drinking

Ferry Boat Inn PUB GRUB ££

(01854-612366; www.ferryboat-inn.com; Shore St; mains £9-12) Known as the FBI, this inn is to Ullapool what the castle is to Edinburgh. The pub’s a little less traditional-looking these days with its bleached wood and nonstained carpet, but it’s still the place where locals and visitors mingle. Some dishes on the menu are a little bland, but a well-run dining room, quality ingredients and great presentation compensate.

Arch Inn SCOTTISH, FRENCH ££

(01854-612454; www.thearchinn.co.uk; West Shore St; bar meals £7-9, mains £14-18; ) There’s plenty to like about this waterfront inn, from its cosy bar (with pool table) serving comfort food like bangers and mash, to its classy upstairs restaurant with glorious loch views and smart creations using Scottish produce with a regional French twist. The outdoor tables right beside the lapping water are a top spot for a pint.

Ceilidh Place SCOTTISH ££

(01854-612103; 14 West Argyle St; mains £11-16; breakfast, lunch & dinner) The restaurant at the Ceilidh Place serves up inventive dishes catering for most palates. It was a little disappointing last time we visited but the bar is still a great place, with a cosy atmosphere, outdoor seating, good wines by the glass and regular live music and events.

Frigate Café ITALIAN, PIZZA £

(www.ullapoolcatering.co.uk; Shore St; mains £7-9; noon-9pm) This waterfront cafe is a popular venue for coffee, tea and ice cream; it also sells a very tasty local smoked cheese. But you can also sit down and graze the Italian-influenced menu of salads, pizzas and pastas, or just drop by for a glass of wine or a beer.

Tea Store CAFE £

(01854-612995; Argyle St; mains £3-7; 8am-5pm Mon-Sat, 10am-4pm Sun) Billed as ‘the cafe the locals use’, this trad tearoom with chunky pine tables serves fried breakfasts, filled rolls, soup, baked potatoes and homebakes, plus the house speciality – venison burgers. There’s also OS maps and walking information for hikers to consult over coffee and cake.

Seaforth PUB GRUB, £

(www.theseaforth.com; Quay St; bar meals £7-11; food noon-10pm; ) Family-friendly and always packed, this big establishment in the heart of town does good-value bar meals and takeaway fish and chips downstairs, and pricier but more peaceful bistro fare upstairs, with serene harbour views.
