A Scottish restaurant has shared a menu it discovered "clearing out a cupboard" from when it first opened more than 50 years ago.
The Loch Melfort Hotel, located on the coast of Argyll in the Scottish Highlands, took to social media to share the amazing find. The menu, which dates back to 1967, uses the UK's old currency of shillings and pence.
The starters for the luncheon menu are listed as Fresh Grapefruit and Mushroom Soup. The price for both is written as 1/6, or one shilling and sixpence.
According to the currency converter on the National Archives website, this equates to approximately £1.32 in today's currency. Guests could also order coffee for the same price.
Meanwhile, the main courses on offer in 1967 were Roast Lamb and Steak and Kidney Pie, priced at 14 shillings and 13 shillings respectively. This equates to present-day prices of approximately £12.33 and £11.45.
Looking at the desserts, the Loch Melfort Hotel offered Lemon Meringue Pie, Ice Cream, and Cheese and Biscuits for three shillings and sixpence, three shillings, and three shillings and sixpence respectively. In 2023, these equate to around £3.08 and £2.64.
Taking to Instagram to share the incredible piece of history, the Loch Melfort Hotel wrote: "Look what we found while clearing out a cupboard! This menu was used in 1967 - the year the hotel opened!
"An interesting look at the prices and the options guests had to choose from!"
Before long, the post had received almost 100 likes from fellow Instagram users. Many also left comments sharing their thoughts on the historic menu.
One wrote: "Wow, that's fantastic! Oh to have prices like that again."
"You should frame this in the restaurant, it’s amazing," a second suggested.
Meanwhile, a third revealed: "Wow! I worked at the hotel at Christmas 1987 as Nanny to the owners twin daughters."
