Old Forge, The

The Old Forge, Knoydart, is mainland Britain's Remotest Pub as certified by The Guinness Book of Records. Accessible only by boat! It is also one of the West Coast of Scotland's best-kept "foodie's" secrets, their candlelit bar on the seashore looks out over Loch Nevis to the Outer Isles. Unique to Knoydart, their tables overlook South to the sea. If you've come by boat, you can use one of their pub moorings. The local ferry, MV Western Isles, more affectionately known as "Brucie", runs twice daily Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and every week day from Easter to September.

You can watch their daily catch land on the pier! Fresh Loch Nevis langoustines, Prawn Platters, Rhum lobsters, squats, fresh mussels, crabs, john dory, monkfish, hake, Mallaig haddock and skate are only a sample of the fruits de mer caught by the fishermen on their doorstep. Wild Knoydart venison, Knoydart hill lamb, organic malt breads, delicious puddings, soups and ice creams are prepared using only Scotland's freshest produce, and herbs and summer fruits grown locally. A speciality is The Old Forge "prawn platter", a feast of fresh Loch Nevis langoustine. The home made aioli dipping sauce is not for the faint hearted!
