The Robin's Nest in Argyll & Bute

We came across Robin's Nest by chance and were greeted in a warm friendly manner. I am on a Dairy Free Diet and the menu catered for all my needs. When we ordered coffee we were given an alternative choice of milks. The cakes were home made and delicious. I would highly. recommend this tea room

Friendly, fast and helpful service and delicious food. An excellent stop off on the way to/from #Oban. Thank you 😋………..

Cute little tea room to pop in to!! We grabbed a takeaway as we have a dog and took it back to our holiday let!! Lovely selection and the cakes were delish!! Toasties were very yummy too!!

Unpretentious, honest food beautifully served and fairly priced. Been many times over the years and I'm never disappointed with either the savoury menu or home- baking.

Perfect little tea room. Exactly what you would wish a tea room to be like. The food was lovely. Fresh sandwiches. Generous fillings. Really satisfying portion sizes. I had banana and cinnamon toastie. Delicious. We were so happy with our lunch we ordered takeaway sandwiches to take with us on our long journey home to the Midlands.

The years of experience amassed by the staff here are amply born out by the quality of their food. Everything looked tempting, but we went for the scones. These were absolutely superb, and all the better for being served not only with clotted cream, but also fabulous home made jam. Good tea, too. Well worth a stop if you're passing through -just a couple of minutes off the main road, opposite the turn off to the station.

We visited three times at differing times of the day and week to visit and couldn't get seated which was really frustrating. Totally appreciate it's popular but I kind of felt like I was being ushered out the second I set foot in the place which felt awkward in front of everyone. Think it could be better managed in leaving maybe a sign out the front so that people know if it's fully booked. It wasn't clear how to reserve a table here (as some of them clearly were) and there wasn't any option or suggestion on how to order cake to takeaway which would have satisfied our tastebuds too! Very limited opening hours - 10-4.30pm on only 4 days a week in the height of Summer.

If you're in the area and in need of a cuppa and snack you must call in here. It's run by two lovely friendly ladies. Spotless clean (incl Covid cleansing between customers) and boasting a yummy menu. 5 stars, can't recommend it highly enough

On a drive around the area my hubby had suggested that this might be a nice little place to stop for lunch so we did. They had a couple of free tables outside so we sat down and my hubby and son had the homemade cream of vegetable soup and I had a tuna toastie. Everything was delicious and the staff were so friendly. It is just off the main road to and from Oban so don't pass it bye if you have the time to stop.

On our way from Oban to Glasgow Airport and needed a quick coffee, Google map helpfully pointed out nearby coffee shops and so we made a stop here with hardly any expectation. We were very pleasantly surprised as we stepped into this quaint and homey cafe, freshly baked goods on a welcoming display. Couldn't resist ordering two scones with clotted cream and jam to take away. I was even asked what jam I wanted! Back in the car, we were so delighted when we uncovered the aluminium foil covered plate to see four halved scones generously slathered with clotted cream and strawberry jam. They were simply divine, the best we've had, and we've had our fair share of scones! One of the memorable highlights of our 10-day trip.

Stopped here on the off chance there was a cafe, there was , it was open and quiet - result! Nice toastie and scones, coffee was good and staff pleasant Recommended.

Was really looking forward to grabbing some lunch and cake here, since I'm a coeliac and they seem to offer lots of gluten free options, but unfortunately on the day we visited (Saturday) there was a new sign on the door stating that the cafe is now closed until 8th July. Really disappointed as we had checked the day before to ensure it would be open and had planned our day around it, and there was no indication that it would be closed. Now we're stuck for what to do for lunch which is not an easy situation to be in as a coeliac! We weren't the only disappointed customers either, as there were others outside inspecting the sign.

Ignored. Stood today while you and the other member of staff ignored me. Left. You must have too many customers.

Charmantes kleines Cafe direkt am Bahnhof gelegen. Die Atmosphäre ist sehr familiär und die selbst gebackenen Leckereien ein Traum! Perfekt um den Alltag zu entfliehen. Bin während meines Praktikums in den Mittagspausen immer wieder gerne hierher gekommen.

Great little cafe, lovely soup and good strong coffee. It's efficiently run by friendly local ladies, who keep the place spotless. Well recommended if you are in Taynuilt

Excellent homebaking and great coffee. The staff were very friendly and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Have eaten here for over 15 years and would not think passing without going in. The best toasties and flapjacks on the planet

Tout est fait sur place et est frais. l établissement n'est ouvert que du jeudi au samedi. et il y a du monde. Venus pour des sandwiches (et des scones) nous avons été ravis.

After a long bike ride stopped here for lunch. Adorable tea room! Fantastic service and THE nicest soup ever. Beautiful sandwiches too and great prices. Will definitely come again.

During a few days staying in Taynuilt we visited this cafe on its opening days and were never disappointed. The baking was excellent and some original and delicious items on the menu. Courteous service despite its being very busy. Highly recommmended.

Best coffee, scones, soup and meringues in Argyll, if not the whole of Scotland. Only drawback is the tearoom is only open for 4 days a week

Arrived at this idyllic location at just shy of five hours from the North East to sample some cave exploration, hike and outdoor swim; picked up some organic Tempranillo and cheeses from Inveraray on the way in via Arrochar and chilled out on the Friday evening to absorb the phenomenal air and surrounding trees. A place called Airds Point just nearby is an amazing location, overlooking Loch Etive. We visited the local post-office for a cash machine and a newspaper and over to the grocery store for a couple of items including fruit, vegetables and bread. At just two miles down the road this was both super-convenient and, as with Loch Awe caravan park, very welcoming. We also found the shop at the caravan location very useful, as well as having a fuelling station on site. Provided with a choice between expensive midgie-spray and the much less expensive wipes at one pound per pack, we opted for the latter and received no bites throughout the full trip – although we did arrive early June. We noticed throughout the drive that areas of dense wood and marshland were far heavier populated and would have affected the trip.Saturday we lay in and then drove back into the village to visit The Robin’s Nest eatery for coffee and superb Hummingbird Cake. This wonderful wee establishment also serves homemade soups and other items and the staff are great. We took off from here along a beautiful stretch of road toward Barcaldine (The Black) Castle, a 17th century tower house build, once occupied by a family friend, Campbell Godley, in the 1980’s-90’s. This has undergone a fantastic overhaul and refurbishment of truly high quality but has maintained its traditional interiors, including a fantastic dining area, secret passageways and superb art work and design. We drove from here down the coast to Oban, initially choosing a right turn away from the town centre and finding a classic wee beach with clear water and almost white sands. From our sun-drenched spot we were able to munch on the contents of our cool-box whilst filming a thunder and lightning storm moving North and, thankfully, away from where we were both located and heading. We picked up a couple of charity shop CD’s for the car: Duran Duran and Red Hot Chili Peppers for less than two pounds, to accompany the road-trip from Oban down to a truly magnificent volcanic peninsula at Easdale, South of Seil, less than an hour from our caravan HQ and a most intriguing drive where cutting back-over through a place called Strontoiller – you will be awestruck by the timidity and majesty of the Highland Cows if you venture along this route.The evening we spent back at Loch Awe, tuning into Channel 736 Late Night with Stu Elmore, accessible via the TV radio: Prince, Keen Annie Lennox, Bruce Springsteen – perfect. Sunday we prepared fresh-bought local eggs with feta cheese, plum tomatoes and buttered toast and packed up to head off through the Pass of Glencoe, a location we self-named ‘The Hundred Island Bend’ and on down through Tyndrum and Crianlarich via a stop-off at the ski-lodge cafe. We took an opportunity and parked the car up between the mountain pass just before this location, taking off with very little attire to experience a few kilometres running in the most fantastic air imaginable. By sunset we were sat on a very secluded beach at North Berwick – a three-pound entry via a tough-to-locate-but-worth-it road – before returning via castle-adorned highway back to the homeland. Life’s adventure is where we create and allow it to be, we concluded, with Nature providing the rest. A future visit would perhaps include kayaking and a venture further north toward Skye.

Stopped for a coffee and cake and so glad we did. The Coffee was lovely and the gluten free lemon cake I had was just delicious. The cafe is small and cosy with lots of artwork on the walls for sale.

We travelled to Taynuilt for a fishing trip and stumbled across this quaint little tea shop. The staff were super friendly and very accommodating, especially as there were 11 of us! The food was absolutely fantastic and all the food was cooked fresh. I would highly recommend this place, a must visit for me!

Cramped café. Nice coffee. Fantastic scones. No dogs allowed. Service not unfriendly but a bit dour.

All ways a pleasure to go to with great food and drinks and a warm village welcome every time you wonder in.

We stumbled on this lovely little cafe on our way south, and we were glad we looked in. The staff welcomed us and served us delicious tea and scones. They even managed good gluten free food. It was a cosy relaxing place to be on a wet August day. Will certainly revisit when in the area.

My hubby & I visited this place 17 years ago & on a return visit to the area with our teenagers we were thrilled to see it is still open although only Thurs to Sun. The scones & raspberry jam are fabulous as are the other homemade cakes - carrot & pecan was delicious! We have been several times during our holiday base in Taynuilt & would definately recommend.

This tearoom was quite a surprise – it is wonderful! We had scones – with jam and clotted cream of course – and coffee, all far better than we expected. Everything, or so we were told, is baked on premises. Others in the restaurant were eating meals – sandwiches, soup, that sort of thing, and all looked appetizing. The place was busy but service was good. Not much more to say but if you are driving around in that part of Scotland, a bit east of Scotland in the little town of Taynuilt, check it out.

There was not a lot of room in this restaurant but it didn't seem to matter. The soup and sandwiches were delicious. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Baking is out of this world! Really great wee tearoom in a lovely location. Great service and ambience. Thoroughly recommend.

Every time I'm in Scotland I make a point of going to Taynuilt. Ian at Graemes Grocers and the ladies at the Robin's Nest and Christine at the Taynuilt Guest House are on my must visit list. The atmosphere, the friendly service at the tea house and of course the food are all excellent.

A small locally feeling cafe, open four days a week, the cakes were fresh and moist and offering great variety. Hummingbird cake, two gluten free cake options-coffee cake and lemon cake. Incredible looking cheese and spinach scones, as well as treacle scones. Haggis toasties on offer too! Generous sized coffees and good value. Great place to stop en route to the loch to walk it all off!

Loved our visit to this little tearoom. Excellent food, really kind and helpful staff , and just a lovely place for lunch in a very pretty little village.

My husband and I had tuna sandwiches with a beautiful sidesalad for lunch. For dessert most beautiful chocolate brownie. Delicious meal, and great customer service. Thumbs up!

We called in here as we were staying nearby. Had one of their treacle scones and coffee. Absolutely delicious. As we were self catering we asked if we could have soup and a sandwich to take out. I can highly recommend this service. The soup was delicious and the sandwiches freshly made for us. Lovely ladies who run the place, but be aware they are shut Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. This may just be seasonal, but check first if you are travelling any distance to visit it.

A very homely and cosy little cafe that caters for both visitors and many of the locals - always a...

We were four dripping wet cyclists who had earmarked Robin's Nest as our lunch stop. We could not have been any wetter when we entered the café. the staff showed us to an anteroom to take off our wet jackets, gloves and helmets. Once settled we ordered home made soup and various sandwiches. A super business with great food.

Un petit tea room pouvant accueillir 12 à 15 de personnes, servant les classiques sandwichs, toasts, soupes et pâtisseries. Absolument tout est fait maison, même le pain de mie qui est très bon. La soupe du jour au céleri était excellente, les toast au haggis ou jambon fromage étaient très bon. Service sympathique qui plus est. On peut emporter les pâtisseries (scores, short bread, cake au citron, gâteau à la carotte), cela tombe bien, c'est copieux.

Visitado durante su estancia con un pariente cercano. Un hallazgo. Sólo bastante pequeña y fuera de la carretera principal a Oban cerca de un par de tiendas locales. Parecía una mezcla de lugareños y visitantes.

Todo lo que compra para comer en Robins Nest es casero y absolutamente deliciosa, desde la sopa hasta los bollos (todos los sabores) a las tortas, es muy difícil saber qué escoger porque todo parece tan encantador. ! Te hacen sentir como en casa cuando entras por la puerta! ! ! Gracias a mi amigo me Doreen para introducir Robins Nest

What a fantastic little tea room. All the food is made by the three lovely ladies in the tearoom kitchen...

Ha sido casi 8 años desde nuestra última visita a Robin's Nest, sin embargo a veces es fantástico para encontrar que no todo cambia!

Recuerdo cuando era un recinto médico de cirugía. Hace muchos años. Un lugar de encuentro local bien conocido y exquisita comida y café. Probablemente las cafetería en Escocia. Si estás en la zona que debe visitar.

An emergency stop with a very grumpy 5 year old turned into a great lunch. Staff were lovely and the choice of food was very good. Sandwiches were fresh and nicely presented and the banana and cinnamon toastie was declared 'the best in the world' and cured the bad mood! We took a selection of cakes for later in the journey and I wish I had gotten another few slices of their dumpling loaf and chocolate brownie, they were yummy. Thank you ladies, you have no idea how much more bearable you made the next 100 miles for us!

We were looking for a place to stop for coffee and saw the signs as we came into the village on the main road. We parked easily outside and there was a small choice of tables. We were made to feel very welcome and the friendly waitress recommended a few nice places to visit in the area. Coffee, hot chocolate and shortbread all good. Traditional coffee shop that serves light lunches. Worth a stop, especially as it was so easy to find (near the train station) and to park.

Whenever we are in the area we always stop here, everything is home baked and excellent; have to make special mention though of the scones and empire biscuits which are the best we have tasted.

Called in for a coffee on Thursday. No tables available. Happened to mention we were only out for a walk and would call in later. Did call in but still no tables apart from one which had a reserved sign. We left a bit disappointed but were called back in by one of the ladies saying that she had reserved the table for us. What service was that? Thank goodness we persisted. Scones are to die for and the coffee itself for a small village tearoom was exceptional. Well worth the visit.

We were passing through Taynuilt, en route to Oban, and popped into Robin's Nest for a snack. The selection of light meals was good and our toasties particularly tasty. The staff were efficient and the surroundings pleasant. Newspapers are provided. Not that it affected us, but I understand the establishment is open only Thursday to Sunday. Worth a visit for a leisurely break in your journey.

We popped in for morning tea, so glad they open on Sundays as we were cycling from Oban and needed sustenance for the onward journey. It's a lovely little cafe with very friendly people. We had delicious treacle scones with raspberry jam and clotted cream, and a yummy sticky date slice. Flat white coffee was well made and strong, and the moccacino hit the spot. One of the nicest cafes we've visited in Scotland.

We called in at the Robin’s Nest for a rest and refreshment stop when heading north to Inverness. Located just off the main A85 in the centre of the village this lovely tea room has long been a favourite of the locals and serves as the social heart of the village. It is many years since I was introduced to the Robin’s nest by parents who lived in the village and regarded it as the place to go after collecting their pension, coming out of church or just simply being in the village.The tea room is quite small but is bright, homely and spotlessly clean. The staff are local and on most days the owner is on the premises ensuring all is in order. We were welcomed and once we found a table our order for tea and cake quickly takenThere is a large range of home baked goodies on offer and well worth sampling. The tea was good, the soft highland water does make a difference, and the carrot cake moist with a lovely texture.The tea room now only opens Thursday to Sunday so if you are passing through taynuilt and need refreshment make sure it is not Monday to Wednesday or you will be denied a treat.We will be back next time we are in the area.

We decided to stop at Taynuilt, during a motorbike trip for Mallaig back to the central belt, for a quick refreshment. There were 6 of us and this was a really tiny little place and was quite busy. We couldnt believe how accomodating the staff were. they moved tables and chairs around to help us fit in. The service was very very friendly with the waiting staff chatting and joking with us. As for the quality of the food - the toasties were lovely but the cakes - wow! - to die for! i had a meringue and my friends had scones and butterscotch sponge etc - all of which looked fabulous and didnt last long. My meringue was perfect - crispy on the outside and chewy inside. the coffees atec were all much appreciated by us aswell. I had hot chocolate with cream and marshmallows - much to the amusement of my friends, but the lady who served us came to me resuce and said that it is not uncommon for folks to ask for that! - it was basically an immense little place to stop for a great snack, with perfect service and amazing cakes - will definitely be back!

Just the place for a break on the rather punishing 78 cycle route. But it is only open Thursday to Sunday, so hard luck if you are thirsty early in the week!

Although I've no authority to say so other than having eaten it, I would say that this new cake is award-winning! The combination of lightness and moistness in especially rare in a gluten-free cake. Well worth a visit just to try this (let alone the scones)!

This tearoom is fantastic. The staff are always very friendly and helpful, the food is delicious and Mairead's home backing is fantastic. My partner and I dropped in for Tea and Cake on Easter Sunday. Brilliant. The scone's were gorgeous, and the new cinnamon and pecan butter is excellent. Looking forward to returning soon, and having some of my favourite soup.

The toasties are delicious. Would recommend the banana/cinnamon or haggis toastie. The scones are fab. Service is always good.

Whenever we visit the highlands we look forward to coming here, their scones cakes sandwiches etc ,always good, watched a couple the other day scraping their plates they had enjoyed the scones so much, love the conviviality of Robins Nest the super accents and the different nationalities visiting ,all make for a unique place, hope the staff enjoy their holidays.

We nearly missed this gem and we headed to Oban. At Taynuilt don't forget to turn into the town. The friendly reception and excellent food made our day! Not to mention the coffee! Will not pass by again without stopping off here.

Visited this lovely little tearoom whilst holidaying in Oban.It was empty when we arrived but very soon was full of both locals and visitors. We had coffees and toasties and they were delicious. The service was quick. The place spotless. Fresh flowers in the ladies toilet a nice touch!Will certainly return when next in the area.

This restaurant is in the village near the railway station on Main street.A great place to stop for a light meal, or just tea & cake.We visited Robins Nest a couple of times in our brief stay in Taynuilt, and took in the excellent Highland Games there.Open 7 days a week - 10am to 5pm.

I come to Taynuilt every year to visit my grand mother and without fail a trip to the Robin's Nest is made. The ladies are so polite and I had a great cinnamon and fruit scone with jam and clotted cream. At the moment they have some local artists' artwork up on the walls and for sale. Great talent exhibited and just adds to the wonderful character inside the place!

This is a lovely small tearoom offering homemade soups, sandwiches and cakes. The toasted sandwichs are made with fair sized slices of bread giving a very heart lunch. The homemade scones with jam and clotted cream are a must (especially if they are treacle). Well worth a visit if you are passing.

coffee, hot chocolate and toasties were good fruit scones spoilt by adding a heap of cinnamon that left its taste for most of the day

As always, excellent lunch. Brilliant soup, toasted sandwich thick with filling and wonderful side salad. Wonderful

We last visited 6 years ago. It was worth the wait. We had coffee and scones, the type of scones change frequently. Luckily treacle scones were on the menu- heavenly. We also had a take away chocolate fudge brownie reported as the best ever.The tea room is cosy and clean. All cakes and soup are homemade. Well worth a visit.

Stopped here on the way home from Oban.Typical wee old Fashioned friendly tearoom in this lovely wee village! most people travelling through so it was busy.Try The Scones They were Brilliant.Worth taking half an hour out of your day for.Would stop again if passing through

We make a point of always popping in to Robin's Nest every year we're near Oban on holiday and again, we weren't disappointed. The ladies who run this are all very friendly and the quality of all the home baking, soups, sandwiches, is second to none. As it's all made on site, the smell is delicious. Really pet friendly offering us outdoor seating (as we had our dog with us and too warm to tie up outside). Scones are the best I've ever tasted and our little girl loved the brownies! A must in Taynuilt.

This is the best place to eat and chill. Excellent sandwiches; the soups are to die for and changes daily; and the pastries melt in your mouth. Amazing women who run this place. And they have wonderful art work too; and are really friendly. Gem of a place.

We always stop in every time we're in the area,The staff are friendly, the environment spotless and the baking "jam's" are fantastic,All the local villagers use it, this is a wee hub of the village,Try the rubbarb and ginger jam on your scone you will not be disappointed. And while in the village pop in to the shop next door and say hi to Ian the man knows every one and what's going on in the village.

Delightful service in a picturesque restaurant. The food and tea was fresh and tasty. As charming as anything could be.

We have an annual charity cycle to Oban from Glasgow and this was our 10th year. Each year we stop at the Robin's Nest just to sample the outstanding food. It is always busy so it's best to try and miss the peak dining period. In Taynuilt you have to turn right off the main road to find it in the shopping area but parking is reasonably easy. We have never been disappointed with the food and the service is friendly and efficient.

Cracking Scone with jam and clotted cream. Empire biscuits a treat. The lunch time toastie menu looked interesting. Glad we stopped.

We always stop for coffee and cake here if we are in the area, going to Oban or Mull.Very cosy little cafe with the most wonderful home baked cakes, bread, scones and shortbread. Very friendly staff and very clean. The baking is done on the premises. You can also get soup or sandwiches for a light lunch. Open 10am to 5pm every day. It is just off the main road on the road to the rail station. Make a point of stopping if you are in the area.

A few stops stand out in all our travels and this is one of them... the home baked pastries, the highland food, the service with a smile. The owner took our notes and called to make sure we had a ride to the self service accommodations we had.. and every day we ate there was a treat. Thank you so much for being who you are.

We have been to this tea room on several occasions now and make a point of going there whenever we are in the area. The cakes here are simply delicious and the difficulty is in making a decision on what to have. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this establishment.

A trip to this part of the world is not complete without (several) stops at this wonderful eating place. The food, including the very moreish, cakes and scones are all made freshly on the premises. The soups are delicious and original. Would highly recommend but would go on a diet beforehand. The owner and staff are also very friendly and will happily help with dietary requirements. Do not miss this treat.

We met friends here while staying in Taynuilt it was recommended to us by the very helpful man in the butchers (who also sold us gorgeous lorne sausage) , it is very small and cramped but plesant none the less, we struggled to order a meal but settled for sandwiches ( with salad for which you pay extra ) and some rather bizarre cinnamon scones. I'm not sure if we will ever return ...

I love this place . Family, friendly they get it :) Whether your kids are wheat free or vegetarian you don't need to worry its all catered for. Not only that, for the big eaters the portions are just right. No complaints expect for your hips because we keep coming back for more Thank you ladies

Auf dem Weg von Balloch nach Onich wurde eine Pause nötig - und zum Glück fanden wir dieses nette kleine Café! Die Bedienung war reizend, das Essen incl. Tee & Scones sehr lecker und das alles noch allergikerfreundlich. Wenn es nur nicht so weit weg wäre... :-)

Stopped off for lunch staying nearby. Good quick pleasant service generous portions, salad a bit on the skimpy side cucumber and tomato cut into small pieces.

Whilst waiting for the Loch Etive cruise we decided to try these lovely tea rooms. What a treat! We had the home made lentil soup, which was delicious and we also tried the dumpling loaf and date slice. Both were tasty, home baking at its best.The waitress was friendly but not fussy and we left satisfied and glad our cruise had been delayed!

Fantastic little cafe, Very friendly and helpful ladies, home baking and lovely fresh sandwiches to eat in or take-away. We were staying nearby and called in each morning to buy our fresh sandwiches to take out for lunch later, lovely bread with your choice of fillings from the menu. The sandwiches are nicely wrapped on a paper plate too, nice touch. Most of all, the ladies are very welcoming, be sure to drop in or you will miss a little gem.

warm and friendly atmosphere, lovely food. we found shelter in this popular small cafe on a rainy day. the choice of food was good and tasty

Real home baking thats reasonably priced with lovely Coffee plus friendly staff No need to drive the eleven miles or so to Oban with Taynuilt having such an excellent tearoom that is even open on a Sunday.

This a truly excellent tea room, the ladies baking in this little gem are so talented and so welcoming, it makes this little place a wonderful experience. Great home cooking with no fuss and no big bill... The date slice is out of this world!!!!

We found this little tearoom in Taynuilt which served home made soup and delicious home baking.The ladies who work here are very friendly and helpful, they squeezed us in for a light lunch although they were very busy and expecting several locals to arrive for lunch straight after attending Sunday service. What a delight to eat good Scottish soup and delicious home baking - I expect the ladies who run it are all prize winners in the local rural!!

Popped in for afternoon tea, found the place to be very accommodating. My soup was lovely. Good mix of locals and tourists.

Friendly and efficient service. Lovely home cooked food - truly a lovely experience. We circuited with 5 of us including a youngster and nothing was too much trouble. Very highly recommended.

I was so excited to eat here after planning our trip from the US to Scotland, I knew I wanted to visit the Robin's Nest! It was just as I hoped! I had the spiced sweet potato soup and a toasted cheese sandwich. The soup was absolutely delicious! It came with fresh bread and butter and I was in love with this soup from the first bite. The toasted cheese sandwich was an incredibly delicious sandwich. The cheese wasn't too sharp but had a bit of a bite to it. It was lovely. The staff was friendly and warm. I felt right at home and very welcome. I'm so glad I made it to the Robin's Nest! It's well worth the stop!!

Brilliant little place where we were recommended for home made cakes and scones.we all shared a. If pot of tea,then a homemade Empire is jig which melted in your mouth.My husband and Mother in law had a slice of Date loaf which they said was fabulous.This is a gem of a place to visit if you are in this area

Home baking to die for. Sample their treacle scone with butter and homemade raspberry jam which goes nicely with their hot chocolate topped with marshmallows. Mmmmmm! The staff of local ladies are genuinely interested in their customers which makes a change from the usual "no eye contact but I'll take your money, thank you".Please make a special trip especially after a visit to Bonawe Historic Furnace Ironworks.

Walked over from Inverawe, where we were staying. Great coffee and lovely home made scones and cakes. Very friendly staff.

The lady opening up the shop in the morning made my day she gave me great directions and helped me so much went in after my adventure for food and it just cemented how great this place is very very reasonable and absolutely excellent I would come back just for this place!!!

Whilst staying in Taynuilt on holiday, the owners of our cottage had recommended that we visit the tea shop. We didn't get chance until our last day, so we popped in to grab some goodies just before closing time to take away. The choice was limited due to the time, so we just had some scones with jam and cream and took them back to the cottage. They were a good size and very tasty. The place was still very busy just before closing time so looked to be very popular. Based on this limited experience we would definitely recommend the place to others.

We visited here on a cycling holiday and found the cake to be superb - fresh, home made and delicious. They also do freshly made sandwiches that you can take away so we got those for our lunch as we were on a cycling holiday. They were delicious too. Highly recommended (and a busy wee place).

On a trip up to Oban,stopped here for lunch. So glad we did. What a varied,exciting menu!The soup was fab! Tomato soup with a twist with lemongrass and coconut and freshly made bread. However so full after ,i had no room to sample the beautiful cakes and scones. Another excuse to return. My husband had a brownie and said it was chocolate bliss.The staff were very friendly and welcoming . My only small negative comment would be the small tearoom is lacking a bit in character,but that's only my opinion.At the end of the day,we're here for the food .Very small,so get there early!

Was taken here for a cuppa by a friend. Pot of tea for two plus a cinnamon and fruit scone for me, treacle scone for my friend. Finished the first pot of tea and had another..so we could have another scone. Great service, great scones and great tea...can't say much more than that. Lovely little find!!

The Robin's Nest is well named in that it is a petite venue to meet in for a lunch-time or coffee-time treat and given the high standard of homemade cooking and baking, a booking is recommendable. There is a good selection of foods and drinks to choose from, which makes the idea of subsequent visits a very appealing one! The staff who served at my table were very pleasant and efficient. The toilets are accessible and general cleanliness is evident throughout this tearoom.

My wife and I visited this cafe for coffee and cake and were delighted to find that the standard was excellent. The place itself is very clean, with a lovely warm atmosphere and attentive staff. The coffee was delicious and the cakes were home made and fantastic. I had gingerbread with butter and my wife had fresh cream meringue. It's just as well we don't live near Robins Nest or I'm sure we would be piling on the pounds!

Friendly little tearoom with a great selection of cakes. Be warned, it gets packed! It's just off the main road and is road to the Bonawe Ironworks, which are also well worth a visit.
