We arrived back into Fort William in the deepest dark and headed for the dubiously named Grog and Gruel. The great food at Huntingtower Lodge made us think that Chris’s recommendation should be OK. The cobbled streets of Fort William led us to the old pub. Upstairs there were lots of kids and heaps of noise from what seemed like locals so we thought our recommendation might be OK. In the tradition of cream with scotch I took the recommendation of the Scotsman behind the bar who told me that my cider should have the addition of a wee dram. I was slightly skeptical but it was fantastic. I think my cider in future will have the addition of a good slug of whisky although I did wonder about the alcohol content as I staggered down the stairs. The food was so good but the real highlight, my newly found favourite, curly chips washed down with a great Highland modified cider!
