Our style is industrial prohibition with a splash of steampunk thrown in for good measure. Find us on Queensgate and enjoy craft beers, vintage cocktails & some incredible comfort food!

Let us transport you to the speak-easy world of 1920's Chicago. Where the streets were ruled by unrelenting gangsters, and the drinks were inspired by the minds of geniuses. Scotch & Rye is our homage to the hard working, harder drinking people of that era, delivering our signature New York & Chicago inspired burgers and home-cookin', all washed down with great craft brews, unique (and award-winning) cocktail creations and a service team with an unmatched personality! We are also a dog-friendly bar! All well-behaved dogs are most welcome at Scotch & Rye.

Under 18s must be accompanied by an adult and vacate the premises by 10 pm.*
*Table with under 18s must book in for a meal and all be eating.

We look forward to hosting your safe, enjoyable dining & drinking experience.

    Cosy Bar, Friendly Staff, Fabulous Food - Great Veggie Option, can highly recommend “Facon Cheese” fellow Veggies it’s amazing. Candlelit relaxed atmosphere, ohh did I mention Very Dog Friendly, even a little Dog Menu with proceeds going towards Animal Charities (our dogs loved their Cupcake). This is Our Favourite Bar in Inverness. My Hubbie decided to try a wee dram of Whiskey, a very knowledgeable & welcoming member of Staff turned it into an experience. Highly Recommend this fabulous laid back Bar, especially if you have your furbaby with you x

    We were welcomed even though we were early to our booking. Staff were friendly and attentive and sorted out a water bowl for our dog. Food was tasty and generously served from the later deal menu of 2 courses for £15. It was a little noisy but a good crowd with a pleasant atmosphere.

    Loved our dinner at Scotch and Rye! The atmosphere was cozy, the food was great and the service was amazing! Thanks to Lauren, Sara and everyone on staff for a great feed and good vibes. We had the Bacon and Cheese Burger and the Chicken Tenders and everything was so delicious we stayed for some apple pie.

    Always a great service. Polite and helpful staff. Food is lovely and served in a decent time. Deals for certain times of the day and becoming a weekly drop in for laptop usage and unlimited hot and cold drink. Can’t go wrong. I’ll be back (with some pals hopefully) 😊

    Really fantastic spot for modern Western fare. Great beers on draught, a good mix of standard lagers and interesting ales. Something on the menu for everyone.
