Munro's Nurseries Coffee Shop in Highland

Had lunch here today. New menu, Orkney Herring with salad and oatcakes, Prawn and salmon open sandwich. Both excellent, presentation was delightful. Service was quick and very friendly staff. Definitely recommended.

We had a lovely trip out to this garden centre today. Beautifully laid out with a great choice of plants. What prompted me to come here and leave a review was the truly excellent staff in the coffee shop. One lady in particular was so warm and welcoming. She obviously has a great rapport with her cafe colleagues too and together they create a fantastic atmosphere to enjoy your treats! Well done folks- you deserve all the acknowledgements and rewards that hopefully come your way. Keep up the high standards!

I rate the cheese scones I get through out Scotland. Only 2 have rated 10 out of 10. Munro's was the second to achieve this accolade.

Always a busy place and usually a great place for lunch but recently the staff seem overwhelmed on a Sunday. Not impressed with the cake ordering process as ourselves and other people didn’t get the cakes we ordered as they were given away to others, they need to rethink that side of the kitchen as it takes an age waiting for cake if ordered separate to main meals.

My friend and I came for lunch last Wednesday and I can honestly say my soup was the best I’ve ever tasted. It was monkfish chowder, compliments to the chef and I’ll totally recommend this, my friend had the broccoli and Stilton, which she said too, was very tasty, both served with a cheese scone. The service was excellent, although they were busy, cheery staff made nice conversation with all the customers, a lot of who were locals. Lovely atmosphere.

Just a few minutes off the A9 and easy to find. Great food, impressive safety, cheery service. No wonder it’s a good idea to book. And it’s a really good garden centre as well! We’ll be back.

A menudo he disfrutado de té y pasteles en Munro's en el pasado cuando recorría Black Isle. En una visita reciente, miré con envidia la mesa junto a mí tomando el té de la tarde. Debo haberle dicho algo a la 'otra mitad' porque ayer, como tetina de cumpleaños, reservó una mesa para que pasáramos la tarde. Disfrutando de una suntuosa fuente escalonada de panecillos rellenos, bollos y crema, una increíble selección de pasteles y un delicioso merengue y un suministro interminable de bebidas. El personal es muy amable y servicial. Mesas bien espaciadas, sin desorden, sin prisas. . . . Qué maravillosa manera relajada de pasar la tarde.* Una buena idea reservar con anticipación

Lovely food and service. Try the haggis with onion marmalade roll. Very tasty Great social distancing. Lovely red gazebos under the poly tunnel. Really great idea well done

Dropped in on way back from Rosemarkie on spec & so glad we did. We had a really tasty homemade quiche & cheese board which was so filling. If we’re back in the area we’ll definitely visit again. Staff were very friendly too

Superb baking but also good lunch menu. Lovely set up for social distancing - individual gazebos set out in a large polytunnel. Very helpful and friendly staff.

Lovely garden centre lots of interesting plants and gifts the coffee shop is very good soups are rather special and very tasty hubby enjoyed his sandwich with a tasty salad staff are very welcoming will definitely be back

Just came for tea and scone. Very friendly staff, scones enormous and obviously “home made”. On display was an excellent display of cakes of many varieties. They all looked very tempting. Must return for a lunch sometime.

Tuve el miércoles especial que consistía en sopa con pan integral, pavlova con fruta y café, todo por 7. 95)La sopa era muy sabrosa, un postre muy agradable y un buen café para terminar.El área estaba impecable y el personal muy agradable.No puedo esperar para volver a probar algunos de sus hermosos pasteles caseros.

Visité la semana pasada y me encantaron sus exhibiciones navideñas, disfruté de una hermosa taza de té y tuve que tomar una deliciosa rebanada de café y pastel de nueces para ayudarme a decidir qué decoraciones quería. Gran selección y algo para todos, compré dos hermosos soportes de luz de té de árbol de metal para encima de mi estufa de leña y algunas preciosas figuras de conejitos vestidos. Demasiadas cosas bonitas para elegir, volveremos.

Delicious food, wide range of choice and great service. Good prices too. Seating outside n the covered garden area is lovely although inside is cosy with plenty of seating which is not crammed together.

A pleasant cafe within the Garden Centre, friendly staff, good selection of tasty food served to your table. retail therapy also on site!. Free car parking.

Locaties just of the A9 naar Munlochy. A garden centre, shop and tearoom. I love this soort of garden centre, also selling books, cards and interior decoration. The tearoom looked lovely and the menu was unbelievable. Had a table in the greenhouse, with sparrows as neighbours. Had a pot of tea and a panini with haggis, brie and weet online chutney, and my it tasted excellent. The salad was very crisp with a very nice dressing and the couscous tasted great.

Place busy , staff lovely, clean and bright, coffee a bit weak, cakes pretty boring selection . We had sausage rolls which were very dry with hardly any spread on them and sausages not nice . Also a new Epos system would help the staff as it is very muddled when busy .

Tomé un café y un bollo aquí y fue excelente. Deliciosos bollos caseros que son de un tamaño decente, el café también era agradable. Todo el personal fue muy amable y atento. El costo también fue muy bueno a las 9. 00 para dos personas. Recomendaría esta pequeña joya.

Beautiful selection of plants - a great place to wander about and the staff are incredibly helpful and friendly. The little restaurant is in a delightful setting - and there is a seating area outside too for those with dogs.

Went in to have a coffee. Lovely helpful staff. Cakes and coffee lovely. Had a walk round the nursery and was pleasantly surprised. We have never seen plants so well looked after. They were all so healthy.

I popped in here to see if they had any bosai pieces. They didn't but what a clean, airy place. I wasn't able to stop long enough for coffee but the restaurant looked lovely. Thr toilets are really well kept as well

A great cafe, in a wonderful garden centre, which is ideal for an afternoon tea. Delicious cakes and sandwiches on offer too

very good food with table service withhin a good garden centre we also thought the toilets were very clean the surroundings were very pretty and the car park is hugevery good disabled access

Popped in for lunch today and it was just lovely. Food was delicious and served in a timely fashion. Coffee was fabulous, much nicer than any I've had of late. Good mooch round the gift shop which has delightful bits and tasteful pieces. Go pay them a visit

A nice café within the Garden Centre, staff are friendly, we enjoyed the tea and cakes, free parking on site.

We had afternoon tea here with our 2 grandchildren when on holiday. Well it was wonderful, substantial sandwiches, massive meringues, cake, shortbread and scones with cream and jam phew!! All was beautiful and we took some home in a goody bag there was sooooo much. Our 3 year old grandson even had his own kiddie portion afternoon tea. Wow we were all full to bursting. Lovely staff too. Thank you.

We have been here several times but on each occasion it has been underwhelming. The choice early afternoon was limited, the portions meagre and the coffee bland. Considering it was quiet, service was slow. Sorry but we will try elsewhere.

Paid a visit today and have to say we (4 in group) will have to think whether we return. I believe the main baker has left and boy is this obvious. Standards are no where near as they were. Even the side salad, which used to be lovely, is dreadful and smothered in salad cream. The ratatouille at £8 was a disgrace, supposed to be served with garlic bread, in reality it was a dried bit of bread with salad cream on it! Was more of a side dish than one of the main 'hot dishes'

It was OK. It was a convenient stop on our way to Fortrose in a place where there was little choice but wouldn't bother stopping there again though.

I expected a bit more than what we got. The cakes look fantastic, and I was readying myself for a fruit scone, but my wife wanted a Scottish breakfast so we had that instead.

Nice atmosphere with friendly staff. You can get a really good cup of tea here and then go into the garden centre.

Visited this coffee shop with high expectations and I was overwhelmed by the quality of food,baking,staff in coffee area need to stand up to the irate supervisor,it was embarrassing hearing her talk to you.You do a fantastic job,facilitating dietary needs,children,quirky customers.

A wonderful lunch recommended by Dave at wildwoodz. Sandwiches were freshly prepared and tasted wonderful with plenty filling and salad. Coffee was great and the home baking delightful! Definitely be back!

I popped in yesterday with my elderly gran and my mum, there was some confusion with our order but it was quickly resolved and the team couldn’t be more apologetic, would always recommend Munro’s! The food was lovely and fresh and the cakes are incredible!

Popped in to the coffee shop after visit to the garden centre. Had a panini followed by a scrumptious cupcake. Great selection of cakes. Recommend the lemon & white chocolate cupcake. Friendly staff, lovely relaxing atmosphere.

We had a beautiful afternoon tea here today. You have choice of the huge ‘hoagies’ sandwiches on the menu plus meringues, shortbread, tray bake, scone with butter jam and cream plus as much tea as you require. All served on a lovely tiered glass stand by lovely friendly staff. What more could you ask for? It was all absolutely gorgeous and we had to bring some away with us as we couldn’t eat it all.

We popped in here for a spot of lunch. We found a good range of good on offer, which was delivered to us quickly and service was friendly and efficient. It all tasted good too. We had a walk round the garden centre and really liked the Easter bits and bobs. We didn't look at plants as we flew up to Scotland!

I have ben here a number of times and it never disappoints. A coffee snack bar that does its job well, quick service with fresh cakes, baked potatoes paninis etc. It always a a good few customer so that says it all. Will always use it from time to time.

The Garden Centre and café are well worth visiting, great selection of cakes, scones etc, hot food available at lunch time, friendly staff offering good service.

We live in Avoch & pop in from time to time. Really lovely cafe. Friendly staff & a lovely atmosphere & good cakes. Had better coffee elsewhere, but it's still well worth a visit.

Munro’s was perfect for a snack lunch on this snowy cold day. This family run nursery was warm and friendly with attentive staff. We had a selection of toasted sandwiches and soup which arrived quickly. Gluten Free roll and couscous alternatives available on asking The plant areas were clean and well cared for with lots of little birds enjoying the feeders. Nice selection of good quality Christmas decorations. Steep drive down into the nursery which had been cleared of snow.

We stopped off at Munro’s Garden Centre while on our way to Fortrose and visited the coffee shop. What a pleasant surprise! We had delicious homemade soup and a sandwich. The cauliflower and brocolli soup was excellent. The staff were friendly and welcoming and we would thoroughly recommend a visit.

Ordered baked potato & a panini. Fine, average but would say slightly expensive. Went up to order 1 tea & a tray bake still waiting 20 minute later. Next table ordered 2 meals well after me with hot drinks & they were served. I put on my jacket to leave my table & I watched them quickly throw my order on a tray. Asked if they had forgotten about my order as people ordering after me was sitting eating their hot meals, was told no . Told them I no longer wanted it & asked for refund. Still waiting for any off the staff to apologise for slow & bad service.

On our way from Strathpeffer to Fortrose we stopped at Munro,s for lunch ,its just a little bit of the main road but well worth the visit,its a garden centre and a delightful cafe with great choices and lovely soups,the place is all decorated for christmas which makes it a joy to visit .

Excellent Garden Centre and a nice small Coffee Shop for a nice snack. Friendly Staff and easy parking

This is tucked away by the roadside and attracts mainly locals I suspect as it's not on a main tourist route. I'm not surprised if they keep it to themselves as the food and baking was excellent. The homemade soups were particularly good and the baking really excellent. Staff were on the whole very good though we came across one on our way out who was clearly disinterested.

On a recent stay at Carrbridge, the guest house owner suggested a visit to Monros and recommended the coffee shop. We visited here and were certainly not disappointed! The food was excellent and the service was fast and friendly. We had hoagy's with a side salad with honey and mustard dressing and Moroccan style couscous. I was a bit concerned as to whether my husband would like the couscous or the dressing but both were devoured with much gusto. Munros is well worth a visit for quality and service. We will be back in the area, shortly, to pick up my husband's new golf clubs and will definitely be visiting here again!

friendly efficient and welcoming, There is a good selection of cakes, sandwiches baked potatoes and . salads

Good cup of tea. Have visited a few times and not disappointed. Fair selection and good place to stop and chill for a little while

Having got lost on the outskirts of Inverness and in need of food,a local lady actually led us to this delightful garden Centre.

Menu has deteriorated. Used to be a wider selection. Can't get an ordinary bread sandwich it seems and "ciabatta Panini" (not encountered that before!) was as hard as a brick when toasted and almost impossible to eat - had to give up and leave the last bit. Cheesecakes and meringues good but other cakes are heavy and stodgy and did not appeal to me. Often seem to run out of bigger cups for a "large" coffee as this has happened to me on more than one occasion. Lovely to sit in the extension or outside. Staff pleasant but not particularly chatty - perhaps too young to know how to engage with customers? We still use this place but not as often as we used to as the menu does not appeal in the way it used to.

Been here a few times, food always good and comes quickly. Staff friendly and efficient. Great cakes!! Will be back soon.

Jamais nous n'aurions pensé trouver un repas dans une jardinerie. Isolée au fond du magasin, on se retrouve dans une ambiance mi restaurant, mi bar joliment décoré. Le repas était très satisfaisant sans toutefois rien d'exceptionnel. Ce coffee shop était juste très bien situé entre Inverness et Chanonry Point, et nous a bien dépanné pour le lunch.

Visited here many times for morning coffee/lunch/seniors lunch/afternoon tea. The restaurant is within the garden centre and has nice cosy feel about it. Staff so friendly and efficient and the food provided is all good wholesome homemade cooking. Tremendous value for money.

Staff are always very friendly and attentive. Great selection of home made cakes and scones to go with tea/coffee. Good selection of sandwiches etc at lunch time. Good value and well worth a visit.

On route to Inverness from visiting family in Gairloch area and in need of late ish lunch. Remembered that going here would be quite easy and we could perhaps get seeds at the same time. No queue so ordering our choice was easy...but they had been busy so whilst coffee came quite fast the food followed a few mins later. Not an issue as it was fresh and tasty when it came and good value. Yes we did then get some seeds, seed potatoes and compost...and we will go back there again.

This café within the garden centre is bright and welcoming, staff friendly, good choice of food, free parking, worth a visit.

Great soup served here, good service and great value and homely values. Tray bakes and sandwiches also excellent.

I ordered a "special" filling sandwich of prawn and crab when it arrived the filling was nothing more than mushed crab stick no sign of any prawn or real crab. My wife ordered a chicken and chorizo sandwich the chicken content was a fore finger size. More importantly the the "sauce" which was on stated on the menu listing was overley laced with chilli's which she cannot eat on medical advice.

I pop into Munro's every now and again for plants or other garden material and always visit the tea room - it is absolutely superb. The staff are always polite, cheery and helpful. The selection available is amazing - the cheese scones and bacon rolls are second to none. The surroundings are very nice - all in all a great place to meet up for a coffee or lunch or their excellent afternoon tea. Well worth a visit

This family-run business is fantastic. The garden centre is good value and always has lots of plants and garden-related 'stuff' available as well as very knowledgeable staff. The cafe is brilliant - lovely afternoon teas, coffees, cakes and lunches served with a smile. I'm lucky enough to live nearby but it's worth a visit from further afield.

Coffee and cakes, where do you start, or finish !!! Light lunches good as well from soups to sandwiches. Highly recommended.

Nice little homely cafe in the middle of the garden centre and gift shop. The road coming out is a bit steep though so be careful.

Out with a friend for a treat and a little shopping. This is the second time I have had afternoon tea here and if was every bit as good as the first time. The staff are really lovely and I would say it is the best afternoon tea I have had. The garden centre us also really good . You can easily spend an hour or two and not notice the time. Thank you everyone

Brilliant little coffee shop - good prices and excellent service. Visit this Coffee shop every time we're in the area.

Visited to see the magical Christmas shop and decided to have a "cup of tea"... Well, the baking looked so tempting and fresh, we couldn't resist. The good news is that all three very different bakes were delicious and with such friendly staff in the coffee shop and garden centre this little place is a destination in itself. Really nice experience.

My wife and I visited this garden centre recently and decided to have to have their Afternoon Tea that was on offer. What a good decision, from the minute we ordered, we were totallly spoilt. A lovely selection of freshly made sandwiches, scones, jam and cream, chewy meringues, and tray bakes, and hot drinks. Doggy bags are available. A lovely afternoon, thanks to al involved.

A gem of a place. Very quiet and well laid out with plenty of tables.

We have stopped here several times and have always found it very pleasurable. It is not too far from the main road so its a popular place at lunch times. Despite that, the

We have visited this garden centre a few times, friendly place, lots of local people frequent this garden centre and we usually had good food.

We come come here acouple of times a month when we have a day off and we would like a break from life. Its only a 10 minute drive out of Inverness but it's far enough away to be in the countryside. We always get lunch, coffee & cake. Food is gorgeous, lovely & fresh baguettes, sandwiches, soups and quiches. This is another Scottish cafe which has outstanding cake but in my personal experience its the best in Inverness. The other day I has ginger bread with salted caramel sauce :D wow. After lunch we chat about plans for our garden while looking at the plants in the nursery. There's a great range of healthy plants to choose from. We rarely struggle to find something that would suit our plans. We have bought quiet a few alpine plants and rhododendrons, all of which are doing well.

As regular visitors, I have to voice disappointment at only one thing! That is the "can't be bothered" / "why am I here" / "why are you here" attitude of some of the younger staff. Needs attention. Otherwise - excellent...

Popped in for lunch with my wife today, she had a baked potato with cheese and beans and I had a brie, bacon and cranberry panini. My wife's baked potato was a really good size and had a superb portion of cheese and beans, this along with the side salad she had made it a really great meal. My panini, which was really brispy, just the way I like them, was full of bacon and brie though I would have liked more cranberry with it. Again, it came with a side salad which had a really nice mustard based dressing. The service is always great and all the staff always have smiles on ther faces. We'll be back.

As a regular to this little gem, one always get a good portion along with a nice side salad. A good varied selection of soups and sandwiches. Cakes and s ones all home baked.

Very quick prompt service. Plenty of room and lots to see and buy in the nursery. Good selection of things to eat with a special afternoon tea package

Having been a regular customer here for a few years I'm delighted to see the cafe going from strength to strength. The home baking is of the highest standard and prices are on a par with elsewhere, especially given the portion size. If you don't see a price just ask, the staff will be happy to oblige. If you appreciate good coffee then you'll find it here and the cafe itself is kept spotless by hardworking, smart and very pleasant and friendly staff. Lovely soups, sandwiches, paninis, baked tatties etc, all made with fresh local produce. Great garden centre too. Being family owned and run makes all the difference. Its popularity is reflected by how busy the car park is these days!!

We stopped off for coffee and fruit loaf. There were no prices clearly displayed and could not believe the charge of £2.60 for a slice of fruit loaf. How much?!! Yes!! £2.60. The coffee was unremarkable but the fruit loaf was OK - well it needed to be at that price. The main concern however is the failure to display prices clearly so that you don't know how much it costs until you have been ripped off.

This is a delightful cafe that makes visiting the garden nursery a wonderful outing. I never visit without visiting the cafe and buying plants. Such a joy to be in a locally owned and run business, it makes all the difference. Perfect for morning coffee, great baking, lunch or afternoon tea. Fresh decor and delightful menu.

Popped in today for a bite to eat. The staff here are all lovely and the food is all home made to a very high standard, comes well presented and a decent specials board as well. Had the best minestrone soup ever and the treacle sponge cake was amazing too (well done to Claire who made it). Very reasonably priced will definitely be back.

Always a good choice staff lovely, food good and reasonably priced as well, even managed to buy a few gifts, although didn't receive the 25% off the xmas goods that was advertised. Will be back in 2016

Restaurant attached to garden centre. Has recently been enlarged presumably because of demand. Soup and sandwich type of food, well prepared and tasty.

My wife and I nipped in here for a quick lunch while in the Black Isle. We weren't to be disappointed, 2 choices of soup, along with either bread or oatcakes, followed by traybakes and cutting cakes. An excellent range and difficulty in deciding. !! Staff were excellent, and the banter good. Only disappointment was I would have preferred crusty bread as opposed to sliced, but this is nit picking. Had a quick wander around the shop, their Christmas stock is awesome, will definitely be back.

always a good choice of home baking after a stroll round the garden centre which has a wonderful array of plants also inside variety of goods.

Friendly helpful staff,great food and prices and a nursery and gift shop as well--what more could you ask for!!

Returned for lunch again, panini with cheese and ham, toastie with smoked cheese and bacon, good coffee well presented, reasonably priced and lovely staff, just the usual, but other places could learn from this, nothing seems to be any bother even when confronted with two fussy eaters

We make occasional trips from North-West Scotland to South Scotland and occasionally beyond. We're always on the lookout for a reasonably quick stop near the A9 and Munro's fits the bill perfectly

A lovely place to take the grandchildren for lunch. Bright and airy with really nice staff. The food was superb - especially the strawberry tart! (No chance of sharing that one!). I knew it was there but it's the first chance I've had to visit and will go back whenever possible. Only a brief stop in the shop but it looks like there might be things there which are a bit different from other Nurseries..

We visit here often for lunch and the food and service are always great. A varied and reasonably priced menu with something for everyone. Great coffees and home-baked desserts. Always clean and bright. Also good for a nice stroll around the plants and flowers afterwards.

Good for a quick snack or cake and cup of tea. Extension has made a bright area that is very pleasant

We had a reasonable priced lunch here. Facilities were clean and plenty of parking. Service was quick and staff friendly.

Pleasant cafe attached to a very good garden centre in pleasant countryside. Friendly staff. Good selection of well priced food, also an excellent range of home made cakes and scones.

First time we went for lunch and then a wander around nursery and shop really pleasant staff too plants all healthy and we bought some And will be back

We really used to enjoy coming here for lunch but unfortunately we've been disappointed the last couple of times. The portions have got visibly smaller. The side salad has shrunk as has the cous-cous which used to accompany the panini.

Being a local we often call here just for coffee and cake. The service is always friendly and quick, order at the counter and then take a seat. Cakes are always good as are the scones. Soup is homemade and sandwiches and paninis are freshly made to order. The nursery it's self is excellent with staff always on hand to give advice if needed. Lots of choice of good plants and gifts at any time of the year. Support local.

I've been to Munro's coffee shop quite a few times over the past few years and always been impressed and word seems to have spread because it's got busier and busier. So I was delighted on my recent visit to see the new and extremely well done extension. It's light and airy with lovely checked table cloths. It looks 'fresh' without looking 'new'. You always get a warm welcome and a smile from the staff and the food is delicious. There's a good menu of sandwiches/paninis /soup etc and its always hard to choose because its all delicious. The kitchen is open so you can see the staff making the food. The staff are always happy to give you exactly what you ask for -I have one friend who can't eat onions and another who is very particular about her coffee - and the staff have always taken it in their stride. nothing is too much trouble.

Called for coffee and so pleased we did. Friendly staff, hot black coffee & jug of milk not a problem (which makes a change) fresh scone & very good home-made Bakewell Slice which hubby had - no chance of a wee taste for me. Order at counter & all brought to table...view from coffee shop into the nursery/garden centre. Had to have a look around the nurseries - wonderful choice of good quality plants, good prices too. Not full of all the "additional" things that Dobbies & alike seem to be rather keen on. Will definately go there again for cafe & plants.

I have just returned from a brief, but highly enjoyable visit to the delightful Munro's Nurseries. It was not my first visit, and it will most certainly not be my last. I haven't felt the need to report on Trip advisor in the past particularly often, however New Year, New Resolutions yada yada......... we rarely compliment those that deserve it but are quick to point out the most menial of faults. So, here we are, my little review..........

Went for light lunch, coffees good, special toastie of smoked cheese/bacon lovely, coronation chicken had fruit added especially, nothing was any trouble for the smiley staff, both in cafe & shop.spotless toilets aswell

Well worth a visit home cooked food and also garden centre well stocked with a variety of plants. We certainly will be revisiting
