We ate here the other night. It has certainly gone down hill since the last time we visited. We pre booked online. When we arrived they couldn’t find our booking but checked the computer and found it. As there was no table reserved for us we were stuck in a dark corner in the bar. Our order wasn’t complete and we were finished our meal by the time they came with the missing food. Some of the waitresses were very scruffy and didn’t seem to know what they were doing. Very disappointed. We won’t be going back.

Nipped into The Fluke after a long day Xmas shopping for Lunch and Coffee. Never again. Ordered Starters, mains and hot drinks. Starters came out fine. Two of the main meals was the wrong order, Which was fine, we had no rush. Went to take a bite out of the chicken in the baguette and got an overwhelming taste and smell of fish. Absolutley vile. When the waiter came to empty the plates I had only eaten a few chips and we told him about the chicken, It was either off or stored incorrectly in the fridges and was covered in fish juice. Vile. We asked for the bill and we're still charged. The waiters attitude was " If you don't like it then what do you want me to do" It was not the fact that I didn't like it. It was not fit for human consumption. Found it very strange when we questioned being charged for a meal that was rotten the waiter said " Let me check with the kitchen staff".. Apparently as there was a check back nothing could be done. The check back in question was a waitress rushed of her feet asking " Everything ok" after we just got out meals and were putting salt on our chips. Payed and left. Didn't notice until we left That my mother didn't get the Golden Years discount we specifically told the waiter when ordering what menu we were ordering from. I understand fully that Hospitality in the current situation is not easy. Two guest at this table are lengthy hospitality workers and know exactly how the system works. Used to love it in here. Will absolutley never be back. I dont know if Management has changed or something but that was by far the worst Customer service I have ever experienced.

Our young waiter (from Edinburgh ) was very attentive. The service was quick and our meal was delicious and very good value for money. We were very pleasantly surprised and will recommend to family and friends visiting Inverness from Fort William to eat here.

I was in with my friend earlier in the week. Our initial thought was we would be a while for anything as there we couldn't see many staff on. However we were proved wrong, the young lad that was in the restaurant was very attentive and helpful. Our drinks order was taken and within minutes the lady behind the bar had them made and was delivering them. The staff are very polite, and the uniforms are always smart. The food is always top class and we look forward to visiting. The lady that took us our bill, was very cheerful. We were thanked by the young boy before we left for our gratitude towards him.

We had booked a table, not realising the Scotland game was being shown. However the 2 women (Jess and Lorna we think) in the restaurant were very attentive. If we asked a question it was answered very politely and professionally. I had the loaded MacDaddy steak and my partner ordered the Crispy Chilli beef. Both had generous servings. When we had finished we asked for the bill and the nice lady came over with the bill, asked how we would like to pay, the card machine was taken over.I am looking forward to going back again next week, and after a going to try one of the dishes recommend by our server.

Went to meet up with a couple for dinner ordered nachos to share when they came out they were on a small dinner plate.I asked the waiter were they the sharing platter as they looked small he said he had asked the chef the same question. My friend had ordered breaded mushrooms that came out cold. Mains weren't much better sweet chilli beef was hard and not much sauce. The fajitas were very small and the onions and peppers were raw. To top it off we ordered last drinks at 9.25 they arrived at 9.50 then we were told to drink up as they were shutting at 10! I have dined there about 2 months ago and it's a shame their standards have fallen.

Pasé a tomar una copa con un amigo después de un largo día de trabajo. Nos recibió en la puerta un hombre que parecía ser un gerente y nos pidió una identificación. Mi amiga tenía el suyo, pero yo había olvidado el mío. Como solo estábamos al otro lado de la calle, dije que vendría a buscarlo, que volvería una vez que lo tuviera. Inmediatamente se disgustó al dar respuestas ágiles, acusándonos de ser groseros. Mi amigo y yo estábamos desconcertados por su respuesta y avergonzados por la escena que hizo. Salimos a buscar mi identificación, pero es seguro decir que no regresamos. No tiene sentido tener un pub encantador si hay gente con actitudes amargas trabajando en él. Ahórrese la molestia y vaya al pub dos puertas más arriba.

Vine al Fluke con mi papá para cenar esta noche y cuando llegamos, nos pidieron que nos registráramos en línea con el código de escaneo, lo cual fue bastante sencillo. Cuando nos sentamos, la mesa estaba muy tambaleante pero no fue una gran molestia. Todo iba bien, pero podía escuchar a la pareja detrás de mí que estaban tan confundidos acerca de la aplicación que tenían que descargar, y esto también me confundió a mí porque no estaba muy seguro de qué hacer. Así que le pregunté a la señora que nos atendía sobre esta aplicación que obtuviera el 50% de descuento y ella respondió "no necesitas ninguna aplicación, la conseguiré en el bar". Las cosas iban muy bien, la comida era increíble. Comí una hamburguesa y batatas fritas y mi padre comió pescado y patatas fritas, ambos disfrutamos mucho de nuestra comida. Sin embargo, una vez que llegamos al bar a pagar, el hombre me pidió el código. Le pregunté qué código de donde me dijo el código de la aplicación. Luego le informé que la señora, que estaba parada a su lado, me dijo que no necesitaba ninguna aplicación y que ella podría hacerlo desde el bar. El tipo dijo que no, necesito la aplicación, y yo dije que eso no es lo que dijo su colega y ella dijo que no es lo que dijo y me puso los ojos en blanco. Entiendo las luchas con la tecnología y la falta de comunicación, pero no quiero que me traten como un cliente que paga poner los ojos en blanco ante sus clientes. ¡Y luego fui a disculparme con el chico por la falta de comunicación y se fue mientras yo hablaba con él! El chico me ayudó con la aplicación y me dijo que su colega no era muy bueno con la tecnología, pero nunca recibí una disculpa. Yo fui el que se disculpó. ¡Esto me dejó absolutamente frustrado y molesto! Ciertamente no quiero volver si así es como el personal trata a sus clientes, lo cual es una pena porque la comida era deliciosa.

Fuimos a The Fluke tres noches consecutivas durante nuestra reciente estancia en Inverness. Nos quedamos muy impresionados con el pub, la comida y el personal. Al entrar al pub, se le pedirá que se desinfecte las manos y que complete la información de seguimiento y rastreo. Se le lleva a su mesa y un miembro del personal toma su pedido de bebidas. El menú es extenso y sería muy difícil complacerlo si no pudieras encontrar algo que te gustara en él. Dos de las noches que estuvimos allí estábamos en el restaurante para ayudar en el plan, así que el pub estaba lleno, pero dicho esto, nuestra espera para las comidas no fue excesiva. La comida era deliciosa y tenía una buena relación calidad-precio, incluso en la noche no salía a comer para ayudar. El personal fue muy amable y muy acogedor. Sin duda volveremos la próxima vez que estemos en Inverness.

Bueno, ¿qué puedo decir esta noche de desastre de comida? Larga espera para el entrante que estaba bien y luego esperar más tiempo con dos niños hambrientos. 1 hr 15 mjns de orden a principal. Pero los platos principales fueron un desastre. El mar y el césped faltaban aros de cebolla, champiñones y tomate. Se acaba de tirar en un plato. A la mega parrillada le faltaban champiñones, aros de cebolla, tomate y maíz. A la hamburguesa Tandoori le faltaba un bhaji de filete y cebolla. Cuando se quejó, el gerente dijo que habría reemplazado la comida, pero me comí la mitad cuando en realidad faltaba la mitad. Ofrecieron más bebida o pudín, bueno, ya tenía dos bebidas esperando para nuestra comida, así que no quería más y no tenía la intención de dar pudín, ya que teníamos pastel esperando el cumpleaños del niño en casa. Los niños estaban hambrientos, no fue una experiencia agradable esta noche y el gerente fue tan distante. Mi hija pidió niños de abetos de helado mientras todavía estábamos comiendo y nos cobraron de más, el gerente dijo que no teníamos derecho a descuento nuevamente ya que lo obtuvimos cuando lo pedimos cuando, de hecho, estábamos tratando de decir que le cobraron un helado extra. Tenía la impresión de que podía usar el plan tantas veces como quisiera y era parte de nuestra comida. Pero ese no es el problema. El personal de la cocina estaba gritando a los camareros que podíamos oír. No muy profesional y la pobre camarera parecía preocupada por volver a la cocina. Me temo que no habrá comensales felices esta noche. Pobre espectáculo ya que nunca antes habíamos tenido una mala comida, pero esto era tan malo con la mayoría de las comidas para adultos que faltaban la mitad de la comida anunciada. La actitud de los gerentes estaba muy por debajo del estándar

No estoy impresionado con The Fluke esta noche. Ni un solo miembro del personal tenía puesto ningún tipo de PPE. El servicio también podría haber sido más amigable, y cuando estropearon uno de nuestros pedidos, nos dijeron que "esta es la nueva versión". . . Sí claro. En general, sentí que las pautas de seguridad no se estaban tomando lo suficientemente en serio.

Hemos visitado aquí varias veces desde que se levantaron las restricciones. Y tengo que decir que el personal está haciendo un trabajo fantástico.Desde saludarte en la puerta, explicar las 'reglas', hasta recordarle a todos los que regresan que se desinfecten las manos, explicando dónde está la puerta de salida.El sábado 8 de agosto estábamos tan contentos con todo lo extra que el personal tiene que hacer que regresamos anoche el martes 11. Y el personal nos reconoció y nos dio la misma cálida bienvenida.Los 2 miembros del personal que se destacaron en ambos días fueron Lorna y Liam. Ambos fueron muy serviciales y muy atentos.Creo que el personal está haciendo un trabajo increíble, el pub todavía tiene un gran ambiente. Volveremos pronto.

I visited here after a family recommendation. I was looking for a lovely pub to have a bite to eat and relax. So I gave it a shot.Was given a warm welcome by all staff and given a fun down of the 'rules' and shown to my table. The girls that were on looked busy, but I approached the bar and ordered a drink. I was looking for a local beer and the lovely Lorna suggested the Belhaven Best, gave it a try and must say it was nice.Overall even though the staff were busy they made me feel very welcome, can't wait to go back next time I am in Inverness.

First time eating out somewhere since ‘lockdown’. Was looking forward to it... unfortunately was disappointed. We had booked as thought it might be busy, but it looked like we were only one of two tables having food.Staff were friendly and I was impressed that they were explaining what we could/couldn’t do on entering and asking us to provide our contact detail regarding track and trace.However unfortunately the quality of the food was poor. My ‘Cluckin hot stack’ was very over cooked, outside burnt and chicken was very dry, chips were hot and ok. My friends also had complaints about their meals... steak pie pastry overcooked and hard, fish and chips were nice, but the peas that came with it were cold and the bread served with it was hard. My friend complained about about the bread, but the replacement came back just the same. Also the tea she asked for was cold when it arrived and she had to return that as well.It was a shame as we were all looking forward to lunch out together for the first time in ages.

Me and the family live locally and headed to the usual for a cheap cheerful meal at wetherspoons. On this day in August it was closed . So thought its been a few years since we tried the fluke .We had stopped going a few years back just because of the quality of food and service.What a change !!!Warmly welcomed in, asked had we booked a table which sadly we hadn't. However they found us a table and handed us some menus.I attempted to use the app, but because of some small technical issues we ordered from the bar. However I later used the app without issue later in the visit. Meals were promptly brought out.The wife mentioned how friendly the manageress and cook had been with our bairns. Especially our eldest who is autistic and hard to understand. They gave him time which is so important.Both servers wher brilliant and I recognised from the last time we had visited. Like before they were both friendly and couldn't help enoughThe food itself was very good for the money. Burgers were great, kids finished their meals and the wife enjoyed her food.Delighted wetherspoons was shut as it gave us the chance to come back.Delighted we didThanks all. Will be back soon

We were a party of six adults, two adolescents and three very hungry children. We thought that it would be a good idea to sample something original to Inverness. We arrived about an hour and a half before their closing time. And a waitress proceeded to give us a large table that accommodated all of us. Something triggered the manager and/or owner who instructed the waitress to inform us that since the waiting time for food was roughly an hour we better go somewhere else. We did not say anything and just left. On our way out a couple of smelly barflies gave us dirty looks.Now, something about us. We were a large group but all of the children are well educated and have proper manners. Four of the adults are physicians and the other two hold doctorate degrees in music and nutrition. We are all American citizens, and trust me, we are many times more hygienic than the pub locals. What they did was rude and uncalled for. I hope that this review dissuades decent tourist families from even stepping inside this dark business. The barflies can keep it all for themselves.

I ordered the chicken Katsu which is normally crispy and tasty, last night it was soggy so disappointed again.

We had some drinks and crisps instead but could hear/see the kitchen still cooking for the next 30 minutes and tables who had ordered prior to us still received their meals.

So hopefully they will improve on this , I have been a customer at the fluke for years and never once had a bad experience until the other day , always had my staff nights out in here and recommended this place to my customers/friends and family, but won't be now , Myself and my partner decided to go and grab dinner here as it was always amazing and great food/service and atmosphere, however we walked in at just after half 5 for dinner and sat down at the dinning area , the waitress came over and said sorry there was no menus as we are behind as there was a function on , and then handed the menus over , that was fine and did not bother me , but 2 minutes later the manager guy clearly says something to the waitress and she come straight back over and says sorry you can eat here right now and you have to go and sit at the bar area for 15 minutes till the restaraunt part opens , no sign saying it was closed or anything , bear in mind everything was set up and the only thing was the menus that was left to do , so we went over and it was packed , no where to sit and order and felt like we were shufed aside , by this point customers were sitting down ordering food and the restaraunt that was apparently closed at 5.30 -5.45pm , anyway we stood and ordered a couple of drinks and 5 min later ask the barman if we can now go over to the restaraunt , he ask the manager or acting manager if we can now sit down , to which he says ok , but again made it feel like we were just in the way. Your cctv will show all this for proof ,

Several friends had raved about the quality of the food at The Fluke when they went for a meal only yesterday, however today was totally different. The food was awful...either cold or overcooked, and presented in the manner you would expect from a toddler. Burnt french fry fragments in the photographs are from the chilli beef and not the chips. It didn't help that the "sizzling platter" was lukewarm at best with peppers and onion as good as raw. Mushrooms cold and minute, nachos looked a bit like vomit.

I visited with my family as in the area. Many years ago (10 ish) used to come here loads when lived in area and food was always amazing. It has gone quite downhill now as food appears pre made and it lacked flavour.

Tuesday 5/7/19. This was our first time at this publ. The bar maid was extremely rude. We asked about ordering food at 8:15 pm and she stated t hat they were no longer serving food and walked away from us with a very bad attitude. We decided to go ahead and have a drink. then a food server told us we could still order and wiped a table for us and invited us to sit down. After reviewing the menu and ordering a drink we went to bar to order our food and the same bar maid with the worst hospitality and courtesy started arguing with us that she already told us there was no more food being served. In all my travels, I have never experienced such rudeness. We are very easy going, patient and low key travelers but this was the worst service we have ever received. If I was the owner and she represented my business I would not be in business long without firing her. I hope they have a good local customer base because no traveler should ever go to Flukes in Inverness. PS it turns out they were just behind on their orders. Go figure. PSS, Love Scotland and everyone else we have met over to us

We decided to go to the fluke as it’s somewhere we haven’t been in years. We’d had a burger each which was pretty good and we both would be happy to go back again to have.

probably the most varied menu we encountered in Scotland with both Scottish and American choices. Reasonably priced and good for families. Service a little shaky. Food was tasty and good portions.

Only six minutes walk from our hotel, we were starving and bedraggled by the time we walked into the Fluke. The bar area has a pool table and some fruit machines. The menus are bright, new and clean, as well as extensive!

It was our second visit to the Fluke, and first time after they have reopened. It was a quiet afternoon, we have found a table near the window, and went to the bar to order. Served by a nice and friendly lady, she actually came back to check on our meals later on. Same as last time, we have ordered curly fries and never got them, didn’t bother mentioning it so just had the chips that came with the meal. Same as last time, my partner wanted to get one of the special steaks and yet again they didn’t have it.

Great vegan curry and vegan pudding. It is nice to see a menu specially for vegans and vegetarians, rather than a meal being created as an exception which doesn't quite turn out right. I have never been disappointed with the fluke.

Nos habían dicho que este era un buen lugar para comer por amigos, pero nunca llegó. Esta noche fuimos a comer y quedamos muy impresionados. Tuvimos 3 entrantes para 8, alas de barbacoa, gambas torpedo y nachos, todos realmente encantadores. Luego comí fajitas de pollo y mi esposo hizo surf y césped. Todo muy bien cocinado y presentado. El personal era muy agradable y acogedor, y sin duda volveremos! Gracias por la deliciosa comida!

I recently visited the fluke on a Sunday afternoon with extended family. As there’s were eight of us we were seated in one of the new extra large booths. It was really spacious and comfortable and private. The place has been recently refurbished and is looking lovely and fresh. We ordered a variety of dishes from the kids and adults menu. Everything looked and tasted great. The portions were generous and even the kids meals were a good size in comparison to other restaurants I’ve visited. Service was quick and The staff were polite, friendly, and attentive. I found the pricing very reasonable and we will definitely be visiting again. Highly recommended.

Well that was an experience we went there as close to hotel. On arrival was told to sit wherever we want, so headed to comfy looking booth to the be told rather abruptly that We could not sit there as for parties of six only, ten minutes later staff member sitting in booth having dinner. Moved to another table which needed wiped down. Went to order food waited a while to be served then got asked what I wanted on nachos, when it arrived nachos stone cold and wrong cheese on them. Had a mixed grill for main but sausages under cooked the rest was chewy and tasteless. The whole service and customer experience was poor. I know it’s cheap food like weatherspoons but quality of food not close to it.

We had heard that the Fluke had a new menu and the food was one of the best in town. You take your order up to the bar and you pay for your food up front. We were not asked if we would like to keep the tab open. Other places do this or they take your card details before you get your food. The person that took our order said to us that cutlery etc was over there pointing to an area. There was nothing like please help yourself to cutlery. I think the management should introduce table service as the Fluke is situated in a prime location in the city.

Have to say this one of the poorest lunches I have had in a long time. Being in the Highlands you would nit expect powdered potato as part of your Sunday lunch. It was awful. To be honest it was cheap staff were fine service was good. Spoiled by poor food. Plenty of potatoes to buy in Inverness using powdered is woeful
