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 :)

Fantastic spot for dinner! The menu had great variety, including plenty of gluten-free options—which was a big reason we chose it. The space is beautiful, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. We didn’t need a reservation, but since it’s a smaller restaurant, it’s probably smart to book ahead. Highly recommend!

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

Norina Kobler

Allergies are requested upon arrival and there is a wide range of gluten-free options. The staff is well informed, friendly and very helpful. The food was delicious and the atmosphere invites you to linger.

Stewart Craven

Great food, good gluten free menu. Nice staff. Quick and delicious

Pete Sanders

We had a recommendation to try Mustard Seed in Inverness and it didn’t let us down. We arrived late’ish on a Friday night and the friendly team accommodated us with a table. Food was very wholesome and really enjoyed it. Highlights for us were the mussels and venison. Gluten free well accommodated.

My daughter is coeliac and I’m GF so I did a bit of research before booking this restaurant. I called to check the burgers were definately GF and was assured they were. I also noted dietary requirements on the booking. We placed our order for 2 burgers only to be told that there were no GF buns. We decided to go ahead with the order as we had a theatre booking later that evening and it would have been awkward to find another restaurant. The waitress advised she would arrange for some “extra chips” with the burger. When the food arrived it was almost comical the tiny burger had been hidden between 2 bits of little gem lettuce it looked like it was hiding its embarrassment! The burger was dry and tasteless the chips were at least hot but if that was extra I’d hate to see a normal portion. When asked if everything was ok with our me I said no. No effort had been made to try and elevate the bun less burger. Maybe a bit tomato, onion, cucumber would have been a start. £17.00 for a dry burger a small bowl of chips and a handful of leaves was awful. We spoke to the manager who was unaware they had ran out of GF bread he offered a discounted price and a dessert. We felt he was lacking basic knowledge of what coeliac disease actually us as he offered vegan icecream having just ordered a burger we are not vegan ! I feel the chef and management need to review their food intolerance options. I fear the chips were also fried in the normal frier where gluten products are cooked as later that night my daughter had some mild side effects from having eaten gluten. A bit more education in the kitchen I think. In the end we were given 10% of the bill and our drinks free but it still felt very steep at £30.00 for an awful meal. Waiting staff were very nice and we felt sorry for them having to bring out such a pathetic plate of good.

Had a lovely lunch here. Being Coeliac I am normally offered a restrictive menu, they were able to adapt the menu to suit what I chose

Brooke Wills

Ordered carry out. Food was delicious and customer service was impeccable. She was very knowledgeable and helpful with allergies, especially gluten free and nuts. Would go back in a heartbeat

Heike Renz

A thoroughly enjoyable visit! Superb fish oysters, delicious mussels in chili coconut, and a juicy burger! Attentive, friendly staff! Gluten-free? No problem! Vegetarian - of course! We'll be back!

Melanie Scurfield

Super find on our way through Inverness. Super friendly staff, yummy food and clean comfortable facilities. They are pet friendly and also offered gluten free alternatives.

Jay

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.

Rona Campbell

Amazing food and drinks, service was very slow, felt neglected. Good gluten free options too

Billy

As someone with Coeliac and a dairy intolerance, this is one of the few if not only places I can get a takeaway. The new allergy list is extremely good and in depth aswell. The box’s all have stickers labels and qr codes for allergens.

Marjorie Jimenez

I was in search of Gluten free pizza and happened to find this small, quaint restaurant. Happy to say the pizza did not disappoint and probably ranks high on the GF pizzas I've tried around the world. If ever in Inverness again, I will definitely pop in here. Note, the place is small so you may have to wait but at least for the GF pizza, it's worth the wait (also heard someone else say theirs was good too!)

Jeff Sims

Our family concluded their two-week vacation in Scotland with dinner at Alfi's River House Restaurant. The food, service, and atmosphere were all exceptional. Our waiter was witty, which we all appreciated, and knowledgeable regarding gluten allergies. I will definitely stop in again the next time I'm in inverness.

Reto Trottmann

Very friendly and helpful staff with good support also on gluten free dishes. Food was ok but nothing outstanding, a wee bit too much of butter on the halibut

Stephanie Rich

Great atmosphere and lovely staff - Easy to eat gluten free and vegan here

Allan Bonthrone

As a Coeliac, eating out can be a challenge. I had two breakfasts during our stay here. Zane was outstanding both in her knowledge and understanding of Gluten Free and she employed exceptional strategies to avoid cross contamination. I would highly recommend eating here to fellow Coeliacs. I felt 100% safe in her hands.

Claire Dawson

Delicious dinner at Aye Eat. Very understand and accommodating with gluten free needs. We did the mix and match starters. The Cullen skink is to die for and the drivers were very good. The only downsides were that the highland cow skewer portion was very small and the Irn Bru cheesecake my partner had didn’t have much of a taste. The decor is so fun and we still highly recommend.

Ann Benzie

Quick bite to eat whilst visiting Inverness for the day. Im gluten free and was really fancying a burger and after some google searching found this place and it did not disappoint. the burger was amazing. Best burger I’ve had in a while. Didn’t have any cocktails but they looked great. Staff friendly, squeezed us in before 5:30 prior to a booking already in, as didn’t want a table near the door as it was freezing, as we were only looking for a quick bite to eat. Drinks served quickly, and burgers were also served in a reasonable time. Looked a great place for drinking cocktails. Would definitely return.

Marina Puyol

Restaurant that serves gluten-free food and it turns out that it contains gluten.....be careful because they can make you stuck in the toilet for a couple of hours after the meal.

Sue Dunlap

Dine in...We had a 7:30 reservation for dinner. We sat down and waited a long time for our order to be taken. I am gluten free and am very picky about what I eat. I asked the waiter if I could take parts of the dinners, (such as just the vegetables) and just have them. He said no. So I ended up ordering a side salad, 2 orders of side potatoes (I thought they were baked but they were boiled) and a side order of broccoli. After waiting for well over an hour, our dinners finally arrived. Mine was 3 separate cereal bowls..one with boiled potatoes, one with broccoli and one with salad. NO DINNER PLATE. And one tiny sliver of butter. It was not exactly a 5 star presentation of food on a plate! I asked for a dinner plate and the waiter did bring me one after a while. This was the best presentation the chef could make? The boiled potatoes and broccoli were not 5 star by an stretch of the imagination! Also, we had started the evening in the bar and had each had a drink or glass of wine. Once at the table, we all ordered another glass of wine. The service was incredibly slow and we ended up drinking another glass of wine. Little did we know that they were $30 a glass! No one ever offered us a bottle, nor did we know that mixed drinks are half the price! It turned out that our bar bill was 100 pounds per person! This turned out to be a most expensive dinner of our trip! The other diners had okay meals, but the service was so slow that they would have eaten almost anything! In short, this dinner was a terrible experience...and very, very expensive. I would not recommend this restaurant.

Gluten Free bread available.

Megan Murray

Fantastic experience for my mum's birthday. Main courses were amazing and catered for celiac disease with an exclusive menu. Desserts were equally as good. Thank you so much for putting decorations and even a wee candle on my mum's dessert. Also all of the staff were so friendly, a credit to the restaurant!! We will be back for sure 😁

Abbie Bell

4 adults - servers weren't clear and struggled to make sense of what they were saying. Food came out incredibly slow, by the time the 4th dessert come out all 3 other desserts were eaten. The gluten free pizza is not worth the money.

MacGregor Family

Lorrimers is a great eater, we always love the breakfasts from here. Although we have been for high tea and was Brilliant. Also my other half picked me up gluten free sandwichs and they where brilliant, which to everyone else Sounds normal, but finding good gluten free sandwiches when taking away isnt an easy feat, but lorrimer knocked Out the park best gf sandwich ive had for take away.

Miranda DeLoera

Had an axe throwing session with Aaron, lots of fun! Food afterwards was amazing, love the vegan and gluten free options.

Belle Gurney

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

Cory Absey

Staff very nice, good Scotch recommendations. Able to accommodate gluten free but not a large selection.

Nathalie Goupil

Very nice restaurant. The menu is very interesting and the food is good, full of flavours and tasty. There is a full menu gluten-free, and I really appreciated it. The staff is very helpful and kind. The service is perfect and quick. Great choice of beverage. I recommend this place. It's a beautiful surprise.
