Sango Sands Oasis pub is pretty basic as pubs go - it reminds more of a working mans club than an old mans pub, trendy bar etc. It has 2 dartboards which we made good use of, and a pool table. The seating area is pretty big - assuming more for making space for tourists than locals - thinking that the congregation of the area would fill the place up alone. Either way, it has an array of local and standard beer, and plenty of whisky. I tucked into a Red MacGregor, from the Orkney brewery. It had me on the floor after a couple. Delicious!
The restaurant itself has a bit of a horrible smell of old fat around it, but... the food itself is prepared on the premises. The thai fish cake was a traditional fish cake, but seasoned with coriander and chilli. My main of scampi and chips was a hearty portion, although I could have done without the carrots and peas that seem to have come from a tin, with subsequent loss of texture along the way. But otherwise, the food worked for us on a cold and blustery night. Service is pleasant and frequent, so our beers remained full throughout the meal. It's not going to win any awards, but it's not the worst I've ever been to either. Don't go in with high expectations and you will not be disappointed.
