Multiplex Warner Bros v Independent Cinema: Cinemas - Inverness has two - and poles apart!
  • Tip Rating:
  • Inverness has two cinemas now (was a 3rd).
    Out of town some way (too far and too ugly to walk) is the multi screen Warner Bros complex with the usual popcorn and teenagers. The standard films.

    Eden Court Theatre offers something quite different, with one small screen showing "arthouse" type pictures and a reasonable number of foreign language films, along with the popular "quality" films and a few amonalies. Its a cultural oasis in a desert of tartan, burgers and beer.

    If you are getting tired of the generic Scottish culture by this time, head for Eden Court, a sanctuary from the world of tourism. Also check out bands and plays.

    Pick up Eden Court (and Warner Bros) programmes from Tourist Info. Films have a seperate listing, be sure to ask.

    No dress code - very relaxed.

    Hootananny Ceilidh Cafe Bar: Traditional music
  • Tip Rating:
  • If you're after Scottish traditional music, this is the place to be. Despite its unfortunate name, Hootananny is a great music club that delivers the goods almost every night of the week. The beer's great, the seating is comfortable, and the people are friendly. Highly recommended!

    All over town: Nighttime Curfue
    Inverness is a great place to go out in. Lots of choices, live music and nightclubs. But beware there is a very strict curfue on all licensed premises. Its midnight at the weekends and to be honest most nights.

    If your in your in, if your out your out. Dont argue with the Bouncers, we wont budge, its the law.

    Baku: Quite good!
    Baku is a very good night club, it's been open about 4 years and has become one of the best nightclubs around.
    They have alot of guest DJ's and PA's which are good.
    The drinks arent that expensive by night club standards and it's not that expensive to get in either.
    The musics always up to date and the atmospheres great.

    Hootananny's: Great Bar!
    Great place to see some traditional scottish ceilidh music, or you can go upstairs where there is live local and national bands playing. Really good, laid back atmosphere, especially in summer, full of travellers! They also allow children up till 9pm or so! Serve nice food too!

    No dress code, just dont turn up in a tracksuit!

    Morgan's Bar??: Canadian courtesy
    Not entirely sure if this is the pub that I had visited with a friend in June; but the owner/manager had treated us quite well.
    I recall that it had a revolving door. (Apparently the only one in Inverness).
    My friend and I toured 75-80% of Scotland; and I kept a thorough journal during the whole week. I would like some help to locate the manager of the pub to send him a copy of my journal as thanks for his hospitality.

    The Anderson: Beer and Whisky Heaven!
    This has to be THE bar in the Inverness area, perhaps even in Scotland to sample whisky and beer. With over 60 Belgian Beers, plus about 10 taps, 4 of which have local real ale on, its beer choice is amazing, and is the largest selection of belgian beer in scotland.
    But its whisky is even more impressive. Over 200 single malts (last time i checked).
    Add to that a quality restaurant, and lovely staff, and a cheerful friendly owner, and you have possibly my favourite pub in the world so far! It's small, in a small village, but this shouldn't put you off visiting as I guarantee you'll be raving about it to your friends!

    No dress code, a good, traditional, local pub!

    (Irish) Pubs: Inverness nightlife
    There are a few pubs where there is a life band playing. You find them in the Scottish "Throtter".
    Be prepared to get drunk, talk to tough guys drinking Guinness and Whisky! Go to there favorite pubs and show them that Belgians can “drink until they slip under the table” :p
    By the way, say hello there from there Belgian Brother! And don’t ask the girl behind the bar a “good whisky”, she don’t know nothing about whisky.
    That Irish pub was also great! Nice decoration, … that’s all I remember of it :)

    Be yourself

    As you can imagine, there are many pubs in Inverness, and some of them with live music. I think pubs in the U.K. can fit in all the tips: Nightlife, restaurants (many or maybe all of them serve food) or local costumes. Good at any time of the day. I bring this one just as an example.
