Playback

Playback is a city-centre pub on Academy Street in Inverness where dogs are welcome inside on the ground floor. It's a lively spot combining food, drinks and axe-throwing and the dog-friendly policy means you can bring your four-legged companion along while you eat, drink or try your hand at the lanes.

Food is served daily with kitchen hours running until 8pm or 9pm depending on the day and the pub stays open until 11pm Sunday to Thursday and 1am on Fridays and Saturdays. Dogs are allowed on the ground floor, so you can settle in with a drink and a bite without leaving anyone outside.

The central Academy Street location makes it easy to fold into a walk around Inverness or a pit stop near the station. It's the sort of venue where your dog can supervise proceedings from under the table while you enjoy the atmosphere and perhaps unleash a competitive streak on the axe-throwing boards.
