Indoor Welcome Last Verified:

8 Aug 2026

Highlander is a dog-friendly pub on Church Street in central Inverness, where dogs are welcome inside the bar area alongside the food, drink and nightly live music. It's a proper trad-music stop with a busy atmosphere, open daily from noon until 1am and food served until 8.40pm. Your dog can settle at a table-side spot while you work through the menu and the set list.

The bar serves food in the dog-friendly area, so there's no need to choose between feeding yourself and keeping the dog company. It's the kind of place where a long evening and a patient lurcher make good sense together.

Highlander sits in the heart of the Church Street visitor core, useful for a late meal, a music fix or simply a central Inverness stop where the whole group stays under one roof. Open every day with food service starting at noon.
