Welcoming and friendly bar with log fire in the winter, serving a good selection of draft beers, scotch whiskies and gins. A great meeting area for locals and guests. Sport TV available. Enclosed beer garden to the rear.
The oldest part of the building, dating back to the 18th century when it was known as the Ferryman’s due to the proximity to the ferry crossing carrying passengers from Connel to North Lorn. It became known locally as the gluepot, as a blacksmith to the rear produced glue from the shaved hooves of the horses. It is still affectionately known as this by the locals. The ferry has since been replaced by the Connel Bridge, which now carries all traffic. It was originally built as a railway bridge but became a road bridge after the railway closures of the 1960s.
We currently serve food from 12-8 pm in the Gluepot.
You will find a great selection of local whisky, gin, and local ales, including our very own Oyster Inn draught. During the winter months relax by the open fire. To the rear, there is a sheltered beer garden.
