Excellent meal in a wonderful restaurant in Inverness. Ate here with family on Saturday night and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. The menu choices allowed us all to select different dishes and every one was a winner. The staff were friendly, attentive and very professional. We will definitely visit again on future visits to Inverness.

Limited menu. Pate came with extremely small amount of tiny Melba toast Nice decor but too dark. Almost needed torch to read menu Slow service Staff could have been a little more engaged Overall okay but not a great experience
The White HouseResponded on December 9, 2024

Very pleasant ambience and polite, efficient service- ideal for a quiet lunch. Quality of food, unfortunately, was not great- certainly not value for money. I would return for drinks only but give the food a miss!
The White HouseResponded on November 25, 2024
Hello Andrew, Thanks for your feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed the service and sorry to hear you didnt enjoy the food. We do aim to have the best quality ingredients and try to balance that with the price we charge, I'm sorry you felt the balance wasn't there. We hope you come back to try us again in the future.
