Nestled in the scenic Cullipool, Oban, the Atlantic Island Centre is a hidden gem that perfectly marries a welcoming atmosphere with a delightful menu. Patrons rave about the café's cleanliness and the friendly staff, making it an inviting spot for both locals and visitors alike. The menu, though concise, showcases a selection of freshly caught seafood, including the standout langoustines served with a mixed salad, chips, and zesty lemon mayo, all for a reasonable £18.50. Reviewers have praised the homemade soup of the day, served with locally baked Luing sourdough, creating a comforting yet refined dining experience. The café also features locally sourced cakes that receive glowing recommendations, adding a sweet touch to the meal. The setting itself offers lovely views, enhancing the lunch experience. Visitor Andrew Farnworth highlights the café’s warm, collaborative spirit, exemplified by a locals' gathering where contributions for soup and sandwiches were based on what guests wished to pay. Such community warmth, combined with delightful dishes like the haddock goujons and the homemade tart, make the Atlantic Island Centre not just a café but a place to cherish and remember. Their commitment to providing quality, locally sourced food will surely have you returning for more.
