Places to eat

In Inverie, The Knoydart Pottery and Tea rooms offer a great selection of freshly brewed teas and coffees. They have freshly cooked food at lunchtime and in the season they open 5 days a week. They usually have a vegan option too. They also do takeaway Fish and Chips during the season, but only Friday evening and it's essential to book. They don't have a license, but you can take your own booze. The Old Forge pub, which is now community owned, has a restaurant which will be serving food in 2023.

On the road to Kilchoan is Knoydart River Cottage, a beautiful bed and breakfast that offer meals to non residents on a couple of evenings a week. Booking essential.

Another bed and breakfast that offers meals is The Gathering. They are open to non-residents every day of the week and offer lunches and evening meals. Their restaurant is called The Lookout.

At Doune, located between Inverie and Airor, there is an excellent restaurant, but you have to walk to get to it, or go in by boat. However it's worth it and the return journey, up the hill, settles the stomach.

Usually on a Wednesday evening, Kira makes fresh wood-fired pizzas outside the tea room in Inverie. The menu changes weekly and you can order here https://www.facebook.com/idontwantpizzadoyou/
