Castle Tavern Inverness

1 View Place,
Inverness, IV2 4SA

Previously known as the Harlequin. It's nice to sit out in the terrace drinking a beer in the summer. The Castle Tavern is a bit small and has occasional live music.

It is situated in good but busy spot directly across the road from the castle. It's owned by George Maclean who owns the Clachnaharry Inn. The beer selection is good and the food's not bad either.

Yet again The Castle Tavern didn't let us down.

Visited recently for the first time in 8 months and its still top draw, the food was exceptional, Great to see the new menu with plenty more options that the old one, That was the only thing that let it down in previos visits, but there really is something for everyone now.

The beer was well kept and of a superior quality, and as usualy there was a wide selection of malts, plus I like the idea of the whisky of the months at £2.50 a throw.

Staff as ever were very friendly, service was fantastic, and there were no idiots in!

Its a pub that you can go and have a quiet drink in, even when its busy.

A great wee pub, plenty of well kept real ales. I visited for the 1st time a couple of weeks ago and found the staff very helpful and friendly and enjoyed a very nice lunch.

Very small pub, but serves a great ale and very good service. Never eaten in the place but food always looks good when it comes out!

Went to their recently restaurant upstairs, away from the hustle and bustle of busy bar. Food brrilliant! Would say it beats anywhere else in the town, waitress lovely and polite catered our every needs, reasonably priced afger our meal sat downstairs and got the craic with some americans. You just have to go there yourself!

A great boozer, probably the best in town these days. The beer is exceptionally well looked after and there is a great selection. A great atmosphere in the place, never any bother and excellent value, very fresh food too! Can't recommend it highly enough, go and try it for yourself!

The best drinking pub in Inverness, all the draught and real ales are well looked after, the food was fantastic, on many different visits.The whisky selection is good and the views from the beer garden are the best you could ask for.

Visit this pub, sit back, relax and enjoy.

And a Castle Tavern fleece at £25, well worth it!

Hello to all in Inverness!
We are 4 old California girls that happened to wander into The Castle Tavern while on vacation. We had a fabulous time with great company, cider, and food. Thanks Charlie.....from your angels! C,K,K,& C

Went for my birthday and will never return! Twelve of us went and food was cold and so was everyone's around us - one person didn't even get their food - when we complained we were told there there were no chefs on just "other people" cooking! Tried to charge us for the meal that was never received! Wrote polite letter to George MacLean due to his reputation which he never replied to.

Alright pub felt a bit crampped and seemed lacking in nearly all departments.

09 July 2007 Camy

Best place to go when it's sunny and a total sun trap of a beer garden.

27 April 2007 Drunken Bum

Had a couple of pints of the Weihenstephan out in the beer garden here last week. Why is it beer garden beer tastes that much sweeter?

George Maclean. not John. Probably best known publican in Inverness. Basic mistake shows your lack of knowledge of pub scene. [cheers for picking up the typo, too much watching Die Hard I guess - Ed]

27 February 2007 The Ravens Claw

Superb. Its got wieheinstephan Heffe (the lovely cloudy nectar of the gods). Roll on summer!!

22 February 2007 The Ravens Claw

Yesterday i went past this pub and got a total chubby when i clocked a wieheinstephaner sign. Could it be? If ever there were a drink on tap to take a pubs rating up several points this is it! Gonna investigate tomorrow. Dearly hope i'm not disappointed.

21 February 2007 Ray Bees

Yeah i think it's now called The Castle Tavern or something like that. What's with all the pubs being sold recently??

17 January 2007 folly

Just a quick update - Harlequin has been bought at last!

And the new owners are looking at developing it as a new real ale pub!(Well, I'm excited anyway!)
