Monteith's

Monteith's occupies an 1890s building on Shore Street in Gourock and is recognised by CAMRA as a pub interior of special national historic interest, one of a small number in Scotland to hold that status. The original seven-tier gantry behind the bar survives, along with the U-shaped bar counter, a terrazzo trough running along its base, and lettering advertising Campbell's Edinburgh Ales still visible on the frontage. The pub traded as Lyle's Bar for about a year before reverting to its older name, Monteith's, in May 2024. CAMRA lists it as an independent operator on a leasehold with its own freeholder, separate from the pub-company chains common elsewhere in the area. It opens daily from noon to midnight and sits close to Gourock railway station and the ferry terminal.
