I always loved this place. the reverb looks good, eating is brilliant and the staff is amazing would highly recommend

We have enjoyed eating so much that we have made it our temporary place during our visit to inverness. great customer service and eating was fantastic and 100% value for money!

Great afternoon stop for eating. the wealthy atmosphere was not much to do. service with a smile and a delightful conversation from the personal. eating is very expensive and was delicious. will defo visit again when I am back inverness

Stopped for a quick bit to eat! The food was good! However, the chicken pie could have had more filling. The clotted cream ice cream is seriously to die for.

I have spent the better part of a month in Inverness and stopped into at least a dozen or more different pubs/restaurants with varying vibes and atmospheres. One of the struggles here has been many places hold their tables well in advance for a reservation or post signs stating that they 're all booked up for the evening. So what to think when you find a couple of spots where there is no wait and it 's laid back and just relaxing? Well, Platform 8 has been a watering hole once and dinner choice twice for me. No lines no waiting. Open seating and order at the bar!! Wings, burger, Tennent 's lager first time then, then the wings again (Alabama BBQ sauce!!! and the Belhaven Steak and Ale Pie on my second dinner visit. Prices are reasonable and in line and the service is friendly. Avoid being turned away elsewhere and come here!
