Small single bar with a narrow frontage that is the only pub or hotel in the Western Isles with an historic interior. It was refitted in the 1930s and retains the bar counter which curves at the left / front end. The gantry mostly dates from the 1930s but the third bay has some modern tiling. A couple of fridges have replaced lower bar back shelves. There is 1930s dado paneling around the room and fixed seating which may date from the 1930s but has been re-covered in modern times. The window screen looks modern and frosted ‘Bar’ glass in the two inner doors looks replacements. Toilets were modernised in c.2000.
