Inveraray has the look of a town built for a leisurely lunch: pale Georgian buildings, a harbour on Loch Fyne and Inveraray Castle just beyond the streets. Its dining history is tied to the planned town created in the 18th century for the Dukes of Argyll, when inns served travellers as well as local people. The George Hotel carries that tradition into the present. Its old rooms make a fitting setting for a meal that draws on the west coast's larder, particularly fish and shellfish.
The most persuasive reason to eat here, though, is the loch itself. At Samphire Seafood Restaurant, the appeal is the chance to put seafood at the centre of the meal rather than treat it as a token local special. Brambles Cafe and Bistro offers a more casual stop, well suited to lunch before a walk along the waterfront. For a longer excursion, the Loch Fyne Oyster Bar near Cairndow is closely associated with the area's oyster-growing heritage. Inveraray's restaurants are at their best when they let those local ingredients speak plainly: fresh seafood needs little more than careful cooking and a view of the water.
