I have dined quite a few times at this unique if somewhat quirky restaurant, and I can say that it never disappoints. We had been staying on the mainland prior to our arrival on Arran and dined at a rather famous Michelen star restaurant. Give me the home cooked, wholesome, delicious, interesting, and value for money food at Trafalgar compared... More

Extensive choice for vegetarians - this is so rare! Delicious food served by the unique waiter/owner, cooked by his talented wife. A meal to be enjoyed by all the family. More

The ambience of the restaurant is relaxed, and the last time we visited, mein host Wolfi surpassed himself with the background music -- several Otis Redding songs instantly spring to mind. He is attentive, welcoming, extremely professional and very funny;... More

On our recent visit to Arran we dined at The Trafalgar Restaurant, Whiting Bay. This surpassed our expectations. The food was cooked to perfection, steak, sea-bass, venison, such quality. Mine host Wolfi, with his quirky humour added to the ambience of our visit. Gege, his wife, must take the credit for cooking the totally delicious food. A "must" if visiting... More

My (blind) husband and I never had the chance to try the food in this place, when we turned up for our booked slot, the owner would not let us come in with our guidedog. When I pointed out to him that by law he could not refuse us entry he suddenly remembered that everybody in the house was allergic... More
