About

On Isle of Mull, Spar is a convenience store at 1 Morvern View, Salen, Aros, Isle of Mull PA72 6JB, United Kingdom. The village of Salen sits on the island's east coast, and the shop serves both local residents and visitors travelling between Craignure and Tobermory.

Spar is known for stocking everyday groceries, drinks and household essentials in a part of the island where shopping options are limited. First-time visitors can expect a compact store with the familiar range of a national convenience brand, useful for picking up supplies before heading further west towards Dervaig, Fionnphort, Bunessan, Iona or Pennyghael. A 4.8 out of 5 average from 57 reviews places it among the better-regarded stops on Mull.

The store opens Monday to Saturday from 09:00 to 18:00, with Sunday hours of 10:00 to 16:00. Further information is available at https://www.spar.co.uk/store-locator/lan95444-spar-malcolm-elliot-stores-ltd.

Reaching Salen from Craignure or Tobermory is straightforward by road, which makes the shop a practical stop for anyone touring the island by car or bus. Scottish Gaelic is spoken on some Hebridean islands, though English serves most visitors well. Summer brings long daylight hours and busy ferries, while winter sailings can be disrupted by weather, so it pays to plan crossings around the shop's opening times.
