Winter Menus Now On Line

We're into November and as usual The Barn Bar will be on restricted opening times until the Festive Season* when we are open every night! If you are staying in the lodges come and join us for a drink from 5pm on Friday through to last orders on Sunday evening.

Michael Hewitt and his experienced kitchen team will be serving homecooked, wholesome, pub grub from 6pm to 9pm each weekend evening. Michael is a well known local chef who also runs the Oban Spit Roast company. Examples from The Barn's Blackboard menus are now online on our website and the dishes feature locally sourced ingredients. If you want a light lunch (from noon to 3pm) the bar staff now have a freshly cooked 'soup of the day' to offer from our new soup kettles, crusty bread and a range of filled sandwiches and baguettes. The 'Soup and Sarni Combo' is already proving popular after a walk up to the loch with the dog (which incidentally are welcome in The Barn as long as they are on a lead or under close control).

We look forward to welcoming locals, Lagnakeil guests and of course are own Cologin visitors to The Barn Bar over the coming months. Check out our 'Malt of the Month'  or sample Highlander or Avalanche beers from Fyne Ales - an award winning local brewery.

*The Barn Bar will be closed on Christmas Day

OBAN FIREWORKS BIG BANG

Over £6k of fireworks were set off all at once at the Oban fireworks display on Friday 4th November! An electronic timing fault was too blame and the display will now be restaged on the 27th November as a fitting final event for Oban's Winter Festival. The fireworks will be set off in Oban Bay!
