La Taverna

La Taverna is a family-run Italian restaurant in the heart of Aviemore and dogs are welcome inside while you eat. The menu focuses on pizza and pasta, served in a relaxed dining room where your dog can settle by your table. It's a straightforward, central option when you need proper food after a day on the hills or a wander through town.

Open Thursday to Monday with varying hours—closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays—so it's worth checking before you head over. The location makes it easy to fold into a main-street browse or a post-walk refuel without adding extra miles to the day.

Indoor seating means wet paws and tired dogs are as welcome as hungry walkers. No outdoor space is confirmed, but the dog-friendly dining room keeps everyone together when the weather turns or you simply fancy sitting down with a pizza and a pint.
