In summer, hanging baskets enhance the striking frontage welcoming you into the bar with a wood-burner at one end and an open fire at the other on cooler days. A 20-table beer garden at the rear comes into its own in summer, particularly when the pub suddenly fills up with the Skye/Uist ferry docking, or the "Hogwarts Express" arriving, both just a short walk from the pub. Other than Isle of Skye beers, the main attractions is the extensive menu featuring locally-caught seafood, plus bar food and kids menu.
