Real ale discount scheme

Platform 8 has morphed from The Exchange and now has real ale again! on four handpumps!

Before it was a bar, it was a bank, before that a school! The large safe at the back of this high-ceilinged pub reminds you that the pub was once a branch of the Royal Bank of Scotland.

As a Belhaven / Greene King pub, beers from both sources feature, but also "non tie" such as Orkney and Spey Valley.

Situated between the railway station and bus station on Academy Street.

Why Platform 8? It is a nod to its near neighbour, Inverness railway station which (currently) has seven platforms!

Please note that although open from 8am, alcohol cannot be served before 10am.
