For people that like a lot of atmosphere it is a great place to go ,for a drink or meal. The meals are nothing great,over priced,but if you are looking for a good time then yes it is for you. Family's it is not the right place for children.[ There are better places in inverness ] Staff were great

This has to be Inverness's best kept secret. Quality, Quantity and Quickness. Not forgetting superb value for money. The steak pie and chips - Fantastic.

You won't find anything posh here, but if you are looking for a decent meal in a relaxed atmosphere you have come to the right place. You will find the more traditional homemade meals here. The portions are absolutely gigantic and service is very quick. Been here countless times and it has never disappointed! Always love having the chicken curry... More

I too have been coming here since I was a child. Popped in for old times sake. Wasn't disappointed. Delighted to hear Gaelic speakers at table next to me.

We should have walked away the minute we walked through the door, but the reviews I'd read on trip advisor made us sit down and order. The place looks like an American Diner when you walk in and the staff are attired to suit. We ordered macaroni and chips and burger, onions and chips. The whole lot was delivered to... More

We both opted for the later and had to pay extra for beans and peas which I was surprised at. The dishes were then £8.25... More
