The Manor House

Frommer's Review

Located in the house built by the duke of Argyll in 1780, this formal, but not stuffy, restaurant overlooks Oban Bay and is one of the finest dining choices along the coast. A traditional Scottish cuisine is served -- truly fresh and creative cooking -- and the chef uses the highest-quality ingredients. Many visitors to the Highlands opt for venison, which often comes with black pudding, caramelized root vegetables, and rowanberry glaze; and juliennes of veal with mushrooms in a Riesling sauce with potato rosti and salsify. You might want to try the delicious grilled scallops in wilted spinach. There are also some selections for vegetarians. You can order such old-fashioned British desserts as sticky toffee pudding with butterscotch sauce, but for something really Scottish, order marinated brambles with whisky custard.
