"Lovely and simple place for a nice breakfast.
Everything is home made and we do not have to wait long time for it.
Nice to have a smily welcome when we get in and a gentille exchange during out meal time.
We really appreciated and last but not the least we went on Sunday morning 😊 ⭐️👏"

"Went to this wee place for breakfast based on TripAdvisor reviews and we were not disappointed. Brilliant service with a smile from start to finish. The lady serving us took into account our dietary requirements and tailored it to suit us. My daughter asked for the cream cheese bagel with salmon & scrambled eggs. However, she didn't want the cream cheese or the scrambled egg. She was given the option to add other fillings to the bagel and she happily chose bacon and avocado. My husband has a dairy allergy & again he was well catered for."

"Proper Caf! Best Scottish breakfast I’ve had so far. Nothing fancy just exactly how it should be with amazing black pudding. Would go every day if I lived in Oban"

In the wee shop, just off the main shopping street on Argyll Street, offers any breakfast item on a roll to take away – or a sit-down meal in the small cafe. This is not a breakfast for the faint-hearted – it is big and wholesome and no calories have been spared in the making of the full crofters. They also serve poached duck eggs on thick homemade toast.
