The Innes is one of the oldest pubs in the area and used to stand alone serving a small community on the edge of Inverness.

Records from 1867 show the first licensee was Jessie Taylor. However it is understood that it may have been operating a pub for at least 10 years before that although Jessie may have also been running another pub in Shore Street during that time.

In 1876 Mrs Margaret Patterson and her husband are shown to be the licensees and continued until 1907 when Mr Donald Cumming took over the licence. In 1919 he purchased the pub and changed it's name to "The Cummings Bar". Prior to this, it is not clear what the pub was called.

Soon after 1962 S&N bought it and renamed it "Innes", after the street designed by Mr Innes which grew up around it. The pub and street have now been enveloped by Inverness, but still holds onto its "local" atmosphere.

Refurbished in 2011 when Craig and Collette MacLeod took over, it is popular with ICT home fans on match days before and after the game.

Good honest pub grub at lunchtimes and a very warm, welcoming pub with a pleasant atmosphere.

Thursday night is darts night when 8 boards can be in use.

Good place to catch a taxi as the local drivers pop in for lunch and a coffee with it being so close to town and 1 hour (max) free parking outside.

A real gem of a pub, and a pleasure to visit.
