I cannot comment on the rooms as never stayed but We come here basically all the time for pizza ! Always a great vibe and atmosphere, the pizza is the best offering gluten free option also - which is just as tasty as the regular . Garlic bread is on point also. Great drink options and local beers I’ve not tried but partner and friends love , i have never had a bad experience here and will keep coming back. Upstairs garden is nice too on a sunny day with open seating or sheltered, best pizza in Inverness.

I stopped by with my mother to grab lunch. We got a tea, leek and potato soup, and 2 scrambled eggs on gluten free toast. The wait time was pretty long, about 40 minutes. The tea was not very hot, and tasted like whatever had been in the pot prior. My mother was not very pleased with her eggs or toast- especially considering the pricetag of £9. I enjoyed my soup, a very large amount, however the potato had seemed to have partially dissolved in the broth and there wasn't very much of it actually in there. More of a personal issue, but the music was extremely loud to the point where we could not hear each other talk, even at louder volumes which was rather limiting to conversation. The door was also kept open despite the rain and I found myself rather cold. We used to come here a lot but the quality of the food and service has dropped significantly and I dont think we will come back. However the waitress was very nice! She swapped the dairy milk for oat when we asked about it and brought over extra water :)

We only stopped here because our hotel was around the corner and we were hungry. At first glance it looks like a cool place to stop and eat. I had fish and chips, the only one available was the gluten free. Maybe this is what affected the batter, it had no taste, it was crispy but the inside was swimming in grease. I ended up scraping the batter off and just eating the fish. The guy who served us really didn't want to be there or enjoyed his job, or at least that's how it came across to me the customer. Would I go there again? Not for food, drinks maybe

Friendly little cafe with great food and loads of veggie, vegan & gluten free choices. I had vegan breakfast (I'm actually veggie but not fussed about eggs) I got veggie haggis, tatty scone, hash browns, veggie sausages & beans & tomato. Very nice! Partner had a Scottish breakfast and said the black pudding was the best he's ever had. Dogs welcome & have their own menu.

I was recommended Johnny Foxes by a friend while visiting Inverness. I’m Gluten and Dairy free. This place did not disappoint. Plenty of alternatives to choose from. Opted for the battered haddock and chips. WOW! The batter on this is one of the best gluten free versions I’ve had so far. The atmosphere was lovely and all the staff were great. Although I didn’t book, I may suggest doing so on a weekend as it did start to get busy and a lot of ‘reserved’ signs were on tables. Would definitely return.

10/10 for burgers. We had the Scotch&Rye beef smash burger and the chicken with bbq pulled pork (gluten free). Excellent. Chips aka fries are cooked in a fryer that is not gluten- contaminated, so happy days. Tasty. We had one portion of ordinary fries (5*) and one portion of garlic-parmesan loaded fries (4* good but not the Absolute Taste Sensation I was expecting when they were recommended). Key Lime cheesecake: good, not too sweet, but I wanted more zing from the lime and the whipped cream detracted rather than added. The cake portions were modest -- makes sense because burgers and fries are big, but felt a bit mean in comparison. Service: super-friendly, very welcoming, but slowed down when it became busier and our second round of drinks never arrived, nor did the bill (check) before we put on our coats and asked to pay. Atmosphere: we enjoyed the soul-funk playlist and we didn't feel hurried. A solid 8.67/10. Very tasty. Caters for gluten free, vegetarian, and vegan. Go.

Had breakfast in here and loved it. The coffee is absolutely outstanding - they have oat milk - and the mocha was done with real chocolate, super delicious. We also tried the breakfast bap and it was unreal, the tomato sauce on it is a nice touch. They have options of gluten free sweets, but no gluten free sandwiches. For sweet tries the lemon and coconut blondie and it was really good. Highly recommend and would defo come back!

Went here for lunch on the 7th for my birthday. Really good food. We had the chicken burgers,made from fresh chicken breast. I asked if they had wheat and gluten free roll and they went out of there way to help. Staff were really nice. There having work done at the moment so they gave us free coffee for the inconvenience. Would definitely eat here again

We are visiting from Canada and so happy to have found this place! My kids ate chicken wings (which were amazing!). Another member of us has a gluten sensitivity which they easily accommodated. Their cocktails were fabulous and the service was great. Decor was posh yet had Speakeasy vibes. Prices were reasonable. Highly recommend!

I don’t normally write negative reviews but our experience at MacGregor’s tonight was truly disappointing. We have booked dinner at MacGregor’s for our one night in Inverness based on their main menu online which had traditional Scottish dishes and plenty of gluten free options. When we arrived, we were presented with a small lunch/late night menu and when we asked we were told that they don’t do their main menu on a Sunday. The menu we were presented with was very limited with a few types of loaded fries and burgers as well as a few mains. The gluten free options on this menu were only the loaded chips. I raised my concern that none of the mains were gluten free and I was told I can pick something from the actual main menu and they will accomodate me, so I picked the vegan burger. 10 minutes later I was told that the vegan burger beef pattie had bread crumbs in it which I questioned how could the vegan burger have a beef Pattie in the first place but the waiter just repeated that it’s not gluten free (despite being marked as gluten free on their main menu). They ended up making me a chicken breast which was chewy and completely flavourless so I could not eat it. My partner had a fish and chips which as undercooked and flavourless as well. For drinks we ordered a Prosecco and a beer, only to be told after waiting for over 15 minutes that they don’t have the Prosecco and the beer came out even later. Finally, when we went to pay and surprise surprise, the vegan burger and Prosecco (which we never had) were both on the bill… overall an awful and disappointing experience 😞

Lovely restaurant, very unexpectedly spacious with fresh locally sourced food. Very friendly staff, great food - I had the special boiled Cromarty Langoustines which I was a little surprised to get cold but they were very tasty. Unfortunately they’d run out of the gluten free dessert option but were happy to make me an affogato instead. I had to decline as I can’t drink caffeine that late but really appreciated their willingness to accommodate. There was a big group celebrating a birthday that made it a bit noisy but definitely a restaurant I recommend.

After a few chats, “the chef can’t be bothered with that” was the answer to a request whether a dish was Gluten Free. My husband is celiac. I think this is not acceptable. It might also be a cultural barrier; I am Italian and this in Italy would be enough to suggest that no one should go to this restaurant.
