About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Romantic
Lively

It began back in 2009 with an idea - since then Bar One has been pioneering the cocktail scene in Inverness! Now we are all grown up, and our incredible team has even gained worldwide notoriety for their creations. Our talented Mixologists have been working tirelessly to deliver you the most up-to-date and trendsetting cocktails they possibly can. We have some old favourites, new creations and just the right amount of tongue-in-chic twists to keep your taste buds tingling. The perfect venue for romantic dates, catch ups and epic nights out, plus our signature stone-baked pizzas are the perfect combination with our amazing cocktails and drinks.

Hi CarlR, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! Although we have stopped serving food, we do have a new cocktail menu filled with a range of delicious drinks as well as our Bar One cocktail classics. We also offer a free bowl of nachos to every group that books in for our Sunday quizzes.

We booked a table for cocktails as it’s our favourite bar for cocktails. Staff are so friendly and very attentive. I had lemon merigue pie to start as it’s my favourite. We were the only ones in at the start as just opened so had good banter with staff and worked our way thru the cocktail menu. Highly recommend a visit.

Hi SusanG, Thank you for leaving a lovely 5 star review! We are delighted to be your favourite bar to visit for cocktails. We are looking forward to welcoming you back again soon for more Lemon Meringue Pies :)
