Little Potting Shed Cafe

Oban


Up a side alley off Oban's main street, this sweet spot has wooden tables and an excellent choice of vegetarian and vegan savoury and sweet bites. The vegan breakfast is also tasty, the coffee is good and strong, there's a wide selection of teas, and the non-dairy ice-cream is perfect for a summer's day. It's dog-friendly.
