Restaurant · Inverness
Tucked into a corner of Inverness, this bistro runs cosy rather than cavernous — lovely for a leisurely dinner, though with a pram it's worth calling ahead so the team can find you a proper spot rather than squeezing you in. Booking is genuinely advised at weekends. High chairs and a children's menu are there, plus outdoor seating for when everyone needs air, and vegan and gluten-free options that make mixed-diet families easy to feed. Portions are generous — the owners have been known to talk people out of over-ordering — and the food does the heavy lifting: the salmon, the tender venison, the rib-eye, and a sticky toffee pudding people still talk about. Staff are warm and attentive, though service can slow when the place is busy. Reasonably priced for the quality.
A little something creative for your next meal out. Filled with colouring, simple drawing prompts for cute animals, origami and conversation starters designed to bring more play, laughter and connection to the table. 3 free printable packs for toddlers, preschoolers and primary-aged children.
