The best restaurants in Inverness Central Highland Highlands and Islands

Stumbled upon this gem while on a walk with my partner and dog. We were looking for some light dinner and drinks and this was perfect! They were extremely dog friendly and my pup even got some cheese! The place is lovely, welcoming, and friendly. The food and drinks were great. We got the meat platter, a bottle of wine, a sherry flight, and a glass of sherry. The staff was extremely busy but they were so friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!

Love the croissant + scrambled eggs + hot chocolate

Amazing value sandwiches. Tasty and quick. Worth a visit for a bite on the go.

An absolute gem of a find, just off the wonkey bridge over the river Ness. Check out their app for online orders as they do some stunning foods (sandwiches and homemade lunches). Absolutely worth a visit!!!!!

Really cool pub in Inverness. Delicious, varied beer, delicious food (burgers and local dishes) and live music. Great atmosphere for a cozy entertaining evening.

The food was good and my wife, who is picky about her pizza, was pleasantly surprised with her meal. Staff was a little overly attentive as if they wanted to hurry us along. We like to order drinks and relax before ordering our entrees. Overall it was a good experience if a bit rushed.

Lovely place though doesn't feel as cozy as some other cafe's I have been in. The person taking the order on the day also didn't seem to have been having the best morning, which happens, the weather was miserable anyway. :) I got a hot chocolate and a little cake and the hot chocolate was wonderful. Decadent and creamy, dare I say. I really enjoyed my visit here, and I can see myself coming back for more cakes and hot drinks.

Very cozy whiskey bar, super large selection, top advice, tasting is possible

Quality street food with cosmopolitan dishes in a beautiful covered hall with a fairly family atmosphere. Be careful of the fairly tight schedules.

Called in on Thursday night with a few friends, great wee place and very relaxed

Absolutely phenomenal food. Stayed in Inverness for a couple nights so researched ahead of time to make an advance booking (highly recommend). We did a mixture of cocktails/mocktails, small plates, and a main. Everything was delicious - duck spring rolls, dumplings, salt/chili squid, bao, and curry. I only wish I had left room for dessert! The staff were so kind as well. Don't miss this gem!

While out for a walk on a rainy day, this cafe hit the spot for a nice breakfast. The food was quick and great, the atmosphere is wonderful, and the staff were so friendly and kind. A great experience!

A rare experience having your drinks in an friendly nice local atmosphere adding more enjoyment if you want your drinks handled by a real experts behind the bar. A place totaly enjoyable if you want a real local family atmosphere managed and run by a expert managment in a friendly manner.

Got to be the best salad and cake cafe in town. The salad and Buddha bowl are unreal, fresh produce and loaded with meal. Good size portions and the staff are great. Must try the homemade cheesecake, scotch eggs and sausage rolls.
