    This is a hidden Jim. We stopped for cappuccino's and freshly made cake. It's not coming up as a coffee shop when you search Yelp, but it is definitely, wholeheartedly a coffee shop and café. Great find!

    Best chips I've had in Scotland so far. We have food allergies and the chef came out and accommodated soy, tree nuts and dairy. Lamb burger on the gluten free bun was awesome. Great view. Friendly staff. Great place for lunch after urquart castle.

    Excellent food and service, directly off the A87. Prices reasonable and food very fresh.

    Honey glazed goat cheese served on a bed of orange dressed salad leaves... delish.

    The service is so personal and friendly! The purveyors recalled us from our visit just at the start of the pandemic. The best turmeric lattes and wonderfully made lunches. Great coffee too!

    This was the cutest little stop. They had a play place for our 2 year old. I recommend the seedless raspberry jam!

We enjoyed looking at the cute good dogs. My daughter had fresh mussels from the Shetland isle, and it was a generous portion. We couldn't have mussels from Southern coasts as there was a restriction on harvest. We had soup, cheeses, salad. Delicious food, and nice service in a bustling, happy, establishment.

As soon as we walked in the door, this young man behind the bar asked us if we were there to eat or just drink, I quickly responded to eat, and he asked if I had a reservation, I told him no, and he said come with me. He took us to a table right next to the fireplace it was very lovely. He let us know that he had a reservation for that table in two hours. I assured him that we would be done within the two hour time limit. As soon as we sat down, a lovely young lady came and talked to us about the specials however, there was only one serving of it left. We immediately said yes, will take that and were pleasantly surprised! one of the best meals we have had here in Scotland!! the service was excellent. The ambience was awesome And the food was delicious! apparently they had live Scottish music starting at 8:30 but we had had a long day at the castles and we were very tired! Love this restaurant and only wish we would have time to return.

    The Mustard Seed is a must while visiting Inverness! It's very popular--and rightly so--but my…read morelarge group of six was easily accommodated for lunch during the week. We enjoyed the price fixe lunch menu, which is honestly a great deal for two courses! I personally ordered the crispy Brie followed by the sea bass over risotto, and both plates were stellar. My tablemates echoed those sentiments across the board, and we had a great variety of dishes to sample. The carrot and coriander soup was another popular pick at our table. And despite being quite full from the delicious Brie with its bright chutney and balsamic, followed by the light sea bass over beautifully rich squash risotto, we somehow managed to save room for dessert. We shared a sticky toffee pudding featuring a light sponge and rich, decadent sauce. I'm not sure when I'll be back in Inverness, but I do know The Mustard Seed will be on my itinerary. Expect a crowd, but know that it's worth it!

    Rather less than anticipated- as this was highly recommended restaurant in Inverness- including an…read moreauthor guidebook and a few good local reviews. Turned out "The Specials Board" had not been updated, even tho we were first available reservation at noon opening. 'Daily Specials' were easily 2.5 times the cost of the 2 course meal options. After our order was placed - AND the 'starter' was brought to table, the server came back to table to say the kitchen 'just informed him that the 'Special' Cod over Butternut Squash from the specials board was apparently not available..... They would replace the North Sea Cod with halibut as the special. Unfortunately the kitchen neglected to tell the waiter that actually the squash too wasn't available and the substituted 'special' was altogether a different combination of veg, fish, and a super rich sauce. Waiter admitted he was disappointed that kitchen didn't tell him the entire special wasn't as listed. A proper resolve could have included some bit of a minor offer of compensation, (discount or perhaps the £7 small glass of wine). Yet not even an apology - just an original comment by the server that he was surprised the kitchen didn't tell him they completely modified the "Special" - Dinner experience across the river Ness was every bit of what one hopes for when on holiday!

Please book ahead and stop asking the waitress if they have a table while holding the door open - it was a cold and blustery summer evening and she didn't have time for those who can't read the sign which already said "Sorry the restaurant is full tonight!" There is just one waitress and I only saw 2 people working in the kitchen. It would take a while before she could come over to take the order and a while longer for the food to come. We both ordered the squat lobster as starters. It was similar to the crawfish tails but the meat was more tender and sweet. I ordered entree sized scallops that comes with a salad with crispy lardons and purée - they are only available as an appetizer on the menu but the waitress allowed me doubling the size as an entree. The scallops were so sweet and cooked to perfect perfection. It came with butternut squash puree (wished there was more) and crispy lardon, cubed butternut squash and capers salad - wished there were more betterment cubes and less capers as the later made it too salty). Wished I could gave them 4.5 starts! This is the quintessential Skye experience we aimed for! A small local restaurant with locally sourced seafood!
