Do you know you can go big with all of our starters? If you want to share (or maybe you’ve just been up the Ben), just ask for a main and let us do the rest 👍🏻

Very excited to have these lovelies back in June! 🎶

So the rain is back... but we’re not even sorry 🤷🏻‍♀️ What better way to stave off rainy day blues than with comfort food... and if you’ve just had a long soggy walk, along the glen or up the Ben, make your pie XL and you’ll be a-okay in no time!

Did you eat ALL of your Easter eggs yesterday? Our cauliflower and broccoli cous-cous will definitely balance out some of your Easter chocolate in the healthy eating stakes! Eat it out in the sun for some vitamin D (with a gin and tonic, you know, for malaria protection). Coming to GW is practically like going to a spa 🤷🏻‍♀️

Weekend bucket list: - pomegranate glazed pork ribs - sunshine - beer as cold as the heart of that woman who was caught putting a cat into the wheelie bin. GW got you covered 👌

We’re so excited for everyone to try the new cocktail menu! Come sit in the sun and pretend you’re on holiday!

New Menu Day!

User

#tbt to everyone’s favourite Monkfish Scampi... and we have some great news... it’s reappearing on our NEW MENU starting tomorrow night! We’re so excited for all our new additions to the food and drinks menus- but it’s going to be a buuuusy weekend so give us a call and reserve your table now before the weekend kicks off! 🥳

User

Sadly Cormac isn’t here this week but if you still want some excitement for your Thursday, we do have some yummy new gins for you to try! Boe Passion is a delicious passion fruit flavoured gin from Boë Gin that we think goes perfectly with Fevertree Mediterranean tonic! And if rhubarb is more your thing then Orkney Gin Company Rhubarb Old Tom is really something special- it holds its own just on ice, or with a splash of Indian tonic!

User

Still looking for plans for your special lady tomorrow? Remember we’ll have afternoon tea as well as our usual Sunday yumminess!

User

What a busy weekend at GW! We hope you had a chance to try the St Patrick’s Day Menu? These Reuben’s Rounds are so good we’re going to keep them on the board for another couple of days! 🤤

User

Join us this afternoon when Cormac will be singing us the songs of our brothers and sisters on the Emerald Isle 💚 We also have plenty of Irish-inspired food and drink to get everyone in the true spirit of Paddy’s Day- see you there!

User

Paddy’s day is almost upon us folks, we’ve got a fab menu for the specials board for you And the lovely Cormac will be here with his guitar all all his Irish charm for a wee afternoon session 2-4!

User

Some specials really are special...

You don’t have to be this cool to work here but it sure does help 😆 We are looking for some extra hands (and the rest of your bodies) for the front of house team at Garrison West as we get into the spring/summer season! Interested? Drop a CV into the pub or DM us here!

We had a meal in here on Friday and it was the first time I had been, such a cosy atmosphere and the food was cooked to perfection. It was really busy and we still didn’t have to wait long for our order and the staff were fantastic! What more could you want! Will definitely be back :) xx

User

We had a great meal here yesterday. Really cosy bar attentive and pleasant staff. It was cold so the log burner was welcoming as was the comfy red leather couch. Had a drink then ordered food which we took through to conservatory at the back.the food was of a good standard and inexpensive .also liked the quirky way chips were served in old style tin cups.��

User

Visited tonight and got a table within 10 mins. This is usually unheard of during the World Cup. Local gin and elderflower tonic was amazing as was the halloumi & steak! Friendly staff and speedy service and a lovely welcoming cosy find. Will definitely be back!

User

Very nice clean place and good atmosphere. Was kind of stuck as to what I was going to have as it all seemed very appealing. Decided on the special lamb shank on mustard mash. Good choice as it was beautiful. All meals that came out look amazing so I will definitely be going back

User

Such a great place! Some friends and I stayed in Fort William for a night in our Scotland road trip and found Garrison West by chance, had an amazing dinner and enjoyed a few good ales. The beans burger is a delicious option for vegetarians. Also they have a great selection of scotches, I would highly recommend the Ledaig 1999. All the staff was exquisite, we enjoyed a lot (funny Quiz) and definitely will repeat! Congratulations guys :)

User

Really super food on Fri (24 Nov). In with the two kids, brisket from specials board devoured by eldest and massive portion too. Burger was excellent and cured trout salad very much enjoyed by youngest. Super staff and attentive service. Bit of a wait for food but all fresh so well worthwhile.

User

Popped in for a cocktail after lunch . The bar staff and I think manager were very friendly . My prosecco was served in a beutiful glass at a reasonable price . Yes ! They sell by the glass girls 👌👌

My friend and I wanted to go and sit out side in the lovely garden they have out back . The manager or very nice bar maid immediately came out and dried the seats for us to sit down 5*

Also worth a mention . A beutiful fire place with comfy couches and a quirky copper topped bar with swivel bar stools . Very classy .

I will be trying the food next time as it looked beautiful

User

Nice, warm and lively place to eat or drink. Basil mash is to die for 😜! The staff is really nice and efficient. I highly recommend 😉.

User

Lunch was amazing! Had the bean burger was so tasty! Love the skin on chips and the chicken was nice and moist and Loved the kale pesto will definitely be back with the kids to try the rest :)

User

Lovely stop off for lunch!



Met with warmth and lovely vibes as soon as you walk through the door. Food second to none.



Managed to turn a side restaurant into a true hidden gem! Will definitely return and will definitely highly recommend!

User

Lovely restaurant with even lovelier staff! Went for dinner with family for my dad's birthday and they couldn't have been more helpful. I brought a cake in before the meal and there was no problem at all, they didn't forget about it like a lot of places do but brought it out after we had finished our mains, singing happy birthday :) customer service throughout the night was excellent, all waitresses happy and smiley. Food was also great and we all really enjoyed our meals - the steak in particular was cooked to perfection! Only suggestions we would make would be to have slightly bigger portions (more veg, especially with fish pie) and for the wine to be a little bit colder. No complaints though, we had a great night and will definitely be returning!

User

Just had the monk fish scampi, fish and chips and kids chicken chunks...Absolutely gorgeous. Service with a smile and amazing fresh beautiful food. Thank you xxx

User

Incredible Vegan menu!! Fun, down to earth staff, friendly relaxed atmosphere, couldn't have asked for more.... the ice cream n curry (reverse order, honest!).... omg.... we'll be back!

User

I was stranded in Fort William around two years ago and had to find somewhere to gather my thoughts for my next move as all hotels were full apart from one so glad I came in here staff are a credit to the town as is the bar restaurant perhaps il be lucky enough to return one day but not looking like someone who's slept ruff for four days and missed the last train to glasgow lol

User

Had a beautiful lunch here today, I loved the lunch special menu where you can get 2 courses for £6, great having a substantial portion of 2 courses for that price, amazing quality of food, it’s not a huge menu but something for everyone with sides available to add on, the haddock chowder was yummy and served in a mug, loved it. Great staff, love the decor, good feel to the place and well worth a visit.. looking forward to going back very soon �

User

Great little bar me and the Percy's finished the west highland way on Friday and stopped by for a few beverages. Staff are great bunch of Percy's and kept big jock watered all night.

User

First time at GW, and it did not disappoint! We came for our anniversary meal last night, and it was lovely. Just the right mix of ambience, service and food quality. I’m glad we booked, as the place was really busy, and still folk were trying to come in off the street looking for a table when we left. Despite it being busy, the service level was consistently efficient, friendly and not too intrusive. Food was delish- can heartily recommend the venison charcuterie and the honeycomb cheesecake as options. Will definitely come back on another visit!

User

2nd time I have eaten in the restaurant now and 2nd time I have had the monkfish scampi it's amazing; definitely recommend it and the price is so reasonable for monkfish. Lovely staff and love the fact all drinks are served in crystal glasses. Will definitely be back. Nice to see somewhere serving good food at reasonable prices , keep up the good work!

User

Disappointed with food here last night. Batter on monkfish scamp was overdone. Thick and hard. Should never have gone out. Told the waitress, but no apology or follow up. Such a shame as everything else was good and staff were lovely.
