"My husband I have had several lunches dinners here. There is outdoor seating for warm, sunny days a lovely restaurant with huge windows looking towards the sea. The food is great. We’ve tried the soups, baked potatoes, sandwiches baking at lunch. At dinner we’ve had the fish chips, sea bream, trout, scallops, the burger, the chicken dish the vegetarian pasta. Every meal has been excellent- and the local honey ice cream is homemade a real treat. The staff are all locals the owner Gavin is lovely. The homemade empire biscuits are the best I’ve ever had! This seems to be the heart of the island, it’s where you find good food at decent prices the locals seems to hang out there too. It’s brilliant to support a local family business when travelling to an island. Would 100% recommend."

Best cup of tea got 10 days on islands, best scone I’ve had for years fresh and not dry, and lovely avocado and almond cake. A fitting end to great day on the island before boat to ship.

This small restaurant is a hidden gem, offering delicious food with a warm and welcoming staff in a fantastic location. Their scones are truly top-notch and should not be missed. Make sure to visit this high-quality establishment. View menu

My dining experience at this restaurant in Colonsay was exceptional. For lunch, we enjoyed sandwiches and baked potatoes, while for dinner, we had mussels and indulged in Colonsay honey ice cream. Both meals were absolutely fantastic!

Four of us ate here twice during our week on the Island. Food, drink staff were terrific. Fish was enjoyed by all as was the superb mussels burger. We love the ' new ' dining room, not there the last time we visited. The pantry is well worth a visit.

Our experience at The Pantry's Seafood Night was truly unforgettable. The sharing platter of langoustines, scallops, crab, gravadlax, two types of mussels, and homemade bread was exceptionally delicious. We couldn't resist indulging in the delightful pear and rhubarb crumble and the flavorful cheese platter. And let's not forget the refreshing white wine and smooth glasses of port. It was a magical dining experience.

Went along to Seafood night on Wednesday and was not disappointed. Enjoyed scallops, followed by seafood linguine then finished with the Colonsay honey ice cream. The whole meal was delicious and staff were so friendly. Great choice of wines and I even purchased a tea towel as a gift when paying. I leave today but going to pop in for a late lunch before I head home on the ferry. Next time I’ll definitely bring the husband

"On our last day here, killing time before the ferry, decided to try luncheon here. No expectations either way. And we were TOTALLY wowed it was just excellent. Trying not to put too many superlatives in this review, but it was really, really ace. We had a lovely table by the window overlooking the harbour where you could see dog walkers, children in wellies, crabbing, and little boats coming and going. Classic Islay. Then I have to mention the food. Jeez, it was top notch, and huuuuuuuge portions. I don’t think we’ve ever had four such consistently generous and fulfilling portions before. We had the scallops (massive, juicy, plentiful , the Crofter’s Platter, which was cheeses, hams, sausage rolls, salad, bread, chutneys; the soup massive bowl, loadsa crispy sourdough bread, and the fish and chips which was so big it draped over the plate! All delicious. Our guy, Andrew, was superb, so attentive and smiley and always bringing us more things, spoons, drinks, more bread, spoons, he was great. And we had a lovely chat with the very friendly and nice proprietor. She was wonderful. Really seemed to care about the place and her team. She told us all about the hotel and stuff it was really cool. We will most certainly come back here next time. You can’t necessarily get the best table every time, but we won’t mind if we don’t! : Oh, also, lovely clean loos!"
