About us

A place for good food & vibes

At the heart of Ocho Inveraray is a small, passionate team dedicated to creating a genuinely warm and memorable experience for every guest.

Our Philosophy

Together, our wee team pride ourselves on friendly service, high-quality food, and the little details that turn a visit into something special.

We believe hospitality is about presence, attention, and consistency, showing up every day.

THE Team

people behind ocho

OWNER

Natasha

Owner Natasha, has dedicated her working life to hospitality, from the Fairmont Hotel in St Andrews to Cocktail Bars in Glasgow, via time at Goodwood Estate to boot!

She opened her first Brunch Café in Glasgow in 2014, and made the move to Argyll after falling in love with the venue that is now, Ocho Inveraray.

HEAD CHEF

Grant Kidd

In the kitchen, Head Chef Grant Kidd leads with creativity and care, focusing on fresh, flavourful dishes that keep customers coming back time and time again.

Grant joined the Ocho team in between COVID lockdowns, (fun fact, his first interview was meant
to be on the day lockdown was announced, and arent we glad we stayed in touch with him throughout to snap him up the second we were allowed!)

Grant had worked in many of Glasgows most prestigious Brunch and Seafood venues prior, meaning he now combines years of experience with the free reign
to experiment with the bounty of natural ingredients this part of Scotland so freely offers!

CHEF & BAKER

Colin

Alongside him is Colin, our fabulous in house baker, whose skill and consistency are behind the breads and bakes that have become a firm favourite with locals and visitors alike.

Colin has worked across many high end country hotels in Scotland, and how lucky are we that he has settled in Argyll to form part of our core team.
