Not a seafood lover? Absolutely no problem. Restaurants in Inverness have access to some of the best meat in the world, right on their doorstep. Aberdeen Angus beef has a fantastic reputation with butchers and chefs for producing excellent steaks and other fine cuts. Scottish lamb is also rightly prized by the best chefs and Ayrshire bacon has long been a favourite. It is no wonder, then, that visitors to steak restaurants in Inverness can look forward to some of the finest meat dishes to be found anywhere. The incredible larder of this fine city doesn't stop there, however. For the more adventurous there are even more treats in store.

One of the great joys of Highland eating is the fine game available in the region. Restaurants in Inverness occupy an enviable position in the centre of some of the best game estates in the world. The choice of game birds is absolutely huge and includes pheasant, grouse, partridge and woodcock. You can also try the fantastic local venison, along with excellent rabbit and hare. The traditional rule of thumb tells us that most game is available when there is an 'R' in the month, but don't worry if you are dining in Inverness's restaurants during the summer months. There is plenty of farmed game available throughout the year.

Restaurants in Inverness also cater well for vegetarians and vegans. Perthshire has some of the finest farmland in the UK, and the county is especially famous for its soft fruits. The raspberries and strawberries are particularly good. Root veg from the area is also prized for its quality. When you put these fine ingredients together with some truly excellent and innovative chefs in the city, the results are impressive. Now, let's move on to the type of food you'll find at the restaurants in Inverness.

There is a host of restaurants around Inverness specialising in great Scottish cooking. Look out for some excellent local haggis, smokey and satisfying Cullen Skink soup and, as discussed above, some simply world-class meat and seafood. You can round off a wonderful meal with some lovely and sweet Scottish tablet or an unctuous cranachan with fresh local raspberries. Enjoying a Scottish malt whisky is the perfect way to relax after dinner or you can try one of the many delicious Scottish beers. Don't worry if your tastes are more international, however. The availability of all that fine local produce has attracted a host of chefs from across the world.
