Dog Friendly Inverness

[Lime]

We are taking a short trip to Inverness at the weekend and are taking our little dog with us. It is some years since we were last there and we didn't have a dog at that time.

We normally do a spot of research before visiting places to see if there are any dog friendly pubs or cafes so that (if!) it rains we don't end up sitting in a bus stop with some soggy sandwiches, a wet pooch and a pair of cranky owners. However my wife's internet research has thrown up surprisingly few suggestions (which sometimes just means that everywhere is dog friendly so they don't think to publish it!).

I thought I would tap the collective knowledge base that is xmarks to see if anyone knows of any decent dog friendly pubs or cafes preferably in and about the city (we are getting the train so will be on foot).

Many thanks in advance.

Lime,

I know of two places in Inverness that are dog friendly establishments: The Castle Tavern and Clachnaharry Inn.

Splendid, thank you very much; i will put them on the list. Do you happen to know if the Castle is still up to scratch - I thought that I had heard a vague rumour that it had gone downhill? I might be completely wrong and doing them a dis-service.

I'm not entirely sure, Lime. I have been there a few times and have always had good service, good food and a good time. The outdoor patio is a must, with an excellent view of the River Ness.

Well no doubt I will be able to give a thorough review (say six pints?) this weekend! If I only make it through one cloudy pint and a bag of pork scratchings it won't be getting a very good listing in the (now forthcoming) "Lime's Guide to Dog Friendly Pubs - Inverness Edition".

Hahaha, well said! Sounds good, mate. Enjoy and have a pint for me!
