Regulars gather in Brodick's pubs to talk, argue, and drink. The Brodick Bar, in the center but without a street address (tel. 01770/302-169), is an old wooden pub open Monday to Saturday 11am to midnight. Drop in for some real Scottish ale and a bar meal of local seafood (meals are served Mon-Sat noon-2:30pm and 5:30-10pm). Featuring wood-and-leather chairs and walls hung with old photographs and riding gear, Duncan's Bar, also in the center but with no street address (tel. 01770/302-531), keeps the same hours and serves real cask ales and lagers. Meals, available daily noon to 2pm and 5:30 to 8pm, always include a roast and seafood items.
