The proportion of those restaurants that offer afternoon tea will be even lower than this.

Leading restaurant guides issue awards to restaurants based on dining from a full menu and will not normally consider afternoon tea when deciding how highly to rate a restaurant. Therefore the above restaurants are not ranked, although it's a safe bet that any restaurant serving award winning food in Inverness is also likely to provide some of the best afternoon tea in Inverness! Please also note that for the restaurants listed above, afternoon tea may be offered within the parent hotel/venue the restaurant resides in, rather than in the restaurant itself.

Inverness, the enchanting gateway to the Scottish Highlands, is not only steeped in history but also a gem for lovers of afternoon tea. This picturesque city offers a tranquil setting perfect for indulging in the time-honoured tradition of tea and scones. One of the top spots for a refined afternoon tea experience is **Dobbies Garden Centre**. Located just outside of the city, Dobbies has become somewhat of a local institution. Here, one can revel in a delightful spread of freshly baked scones, delicate finger sandwiches, and exquisite cakes, all served with a piping hot pot of freshly brewed tea. For those among us with an appreciation for quality preserves, the homemade jams served with a thick dollop of clotted cream at Dobbies never disappoint. Another treasured locale for indulging in an afternoon tea in Inverness is none other than **The Victorian Market**. Nestled in the heart of the city, this historical indoor market offers a selection of charming cafes, some of which specialise in serving delightful teas and sweets. A personal favourite is **Ginger and Pickles**, a quaint tearoom tucked away in the market, offering an elegant yet unpretentious afternoon tea – think delicately warmed scones paired with fresh local butter and ample jam. For those in search of something even more luxurious, a trip to **Loch Ness Country House Hotel** on the outskirts of Inverness is essential. Here, you can enjoy a sophisticated, traditional afternoon tea amidst rolling lawns and pristine countryside, making it the perfect spot for both tourists and locals seeking relaxation with a touch of indulgence.
