wonderful home cooked eating recommend the homemade pancakes with smoked salmon and touchy coffee is also fantastic and the owner is very friendly

Delicious food, reasonable prices and relaxed atmosphere. A particular delight were the 'fries ', which were actually small chunks of potato which had been cooked in olive oil. Very tasty.

Tim Saul and his wife run this fantastic little restaurant/music shop/bar in Rothesay. The food is good and unpretentious and the all day breakfast is unbeatable. The ambience is very relaxed with visitors and locals alike engaging in lively banter whilst aspiring and established musicians can sample the musical instruments available for purchase. In the short period we were there for lunch Tim sold 2 mandolins and a bodhran while serving meals and drinks and chatting with all and sundry. We could have stayed all day drinking coffee and just hanging out but we had a ferry to catch.

I saw that another person gave this awesome place 2 stars for not being open, and I just had to write my own review. Me and my wife visited Bute in the middle of 2015 and during our 5 day stay on Bute we visited Brechin's no less than 5 times. It was our office, our coffee shop, lunch spot and the owners treated us like family. It was a great place with freshly made soup and home baked bread rolls. The coffee was proper espresso made americano and lattes which we enjoyed very much (I think the only place on the island that didn't use nescafe). The place have great wifi and cool atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit when on Bute!

We were in Bute for a day trip. Wandering on the streets we came across this cute Brasserie. What caught our eye was the decoration related to music. In the shop window they were selling a brilliant set of Shopping List sheets called: Chopin Lizt . I got them. Once inside the waiter couldn 't have been more friendly and helpful. Nice conversation, stories and environtment. In the menu, the only chicken burger was spicy. I asked him if they had a non-spicy chicken burger. He apologized for not having it. I order the spicy one. One minute later he came back with the news that somebody was going to the local butcher who provides daily the burgers and other stuff) to ask for a non-spicy chicken...
