Unsure if I'm in a tourist trap or a friendly local pub... hard to say.\n\nBut the Halfway House is delightful for what it is: a small, cozy pub with friendly service and simple food. I went with the stovies and oatcakes, and my wife had the skink. Neither was exceptional, but they were both hot and filling, and perfect for a windy, rainy Scottish afternoon.\n\nIf it weren't for the location, I wouldn't go out of my way to try the Halfway House. But you can definitely do worse with the commercialized, over-sexed pubs a bit higher up the hill. Halfway House is a relaxing respite from all that.\n\nCash only! Closest ATM I found was in the train station, but there may be one closer...
