“ The flat white coffee was perfect. It's all I can review. I will pass by again in the future. ”
“ A lovely wee coffee shop,,,,actually the best cup of coffee I had the whole time I was in Inverness, with fabulous latte art! My daughter got us a millionaire shortbread and another chocolaty tray bake,,,,,well, what a wow factor,,,,,the shortbread was so light and delicious, an absolute treat,,,,and the chocolate tray bake with the kinder on top was also light and delicious, with a lovely flavour combination. The service was fantastic, super friendly. To my delight, though we had to sit outside with our dog, the staff brought out water for our dog, gave him a belly rub and were super dog friendly. All in all, it was a fantastic experience, I particularly recommend the delicious home baking and great quality coffee,,,,but the dog friendly staff enhanced the experience for me even more ") ”
“ An incredible gem of a cafe - we are so lucky to call it our local. Amazing coffee, delicious ice cream and impeccable service. ”
“ My wife and I visit a lot of coffee shops, and are always pretty happy when we discover one that is truly a cut above the rest. Cup and Cone made that list!!! The coffee was great and the pastries were out-of-this-world delicious. I even got the vegan one(s) because they looked sooo good - and they were! Lemon is hard to get right, but the balance was spot on. Best of all was the service - Chris and Annette were wonderful. Chris - Go Bucs, and a large because it is worn outside the hoodie on those cold autumn football nights... ;-) ”
“ Brilliant place (same as the Milk Bar), an important part of the local community. Amazing cakes & great selection of local produce too. And the coffee is the same fantastic coffee that you get in the Milk Bar - also available to buy to take home too ”
“ Was served a perfect mocha by Paula. Drinks always first class in this place and milk is non-homogenised so better for your blood vessels. ”
“ I went to this neat place with my fiancee on May ‘22 during my travel in UK and Ireland. We ordered some mocha, hot chocolate, and a shortbread. It was honestly the best coffee and chocolate drinks we’ve had throughout all the places we tried during the travel!! And when I said “all the places”, we have visited numerous top rated cafe, from London, Newcastle, Scotland, Belfast, Dublin, and everywhere in between. And nothing can come close to the fragrant coffee, the creamy consistency of the milk, and the tasty chocolate. The service from the owner (I think he is) was very nice and warm, through the brief nice chat we had. He recommended me to try the millionaire shortbread as it is more authentic to Scotland area. And it was a nice little sweet treat indeed. PS: I don’t know if he remembered, but here is the shoutout he asked all away from here, Indonesia! ”
“ Cozy and lovely place. Good coffee! Warmth and friendly staffs! I’m definitely going back if ever I’ll visit Inverness again in the future! ”
