Afternoon Tea

Discover Afternoon Tea at The Inverness Castle Experience, in the heart of Inverness city centre.

Set within the stunning North Tower Bar, a beautifully reimagined space with its own unique story to tell, this luxury afternoon tea offers a taste of the Highlands. Inspired by local folklore, heritage, and the landscape of the region, each course is thoughtfully crafted to bring Highland stories to life. From savoury delights and handcrafted cocktails to indulgent sweet treats and traditional scones served with Scottish preserves and clotted cream, every element has been designed to create a truly special experience.

More than afternoon tea, it is a celebration of Highland heritage, culture, and hospitality, all enjoyed within one of Inverness’s most beautiful landmarks.

Served daily at 12pm, 2pm, and 4pm.

We kindly ask that bookings are made online 2 days in advance.

Please note your Afternoon Tea ticket does not include access to the main Experience.

Choose to enjoy your Afternoon Tea with a handcrafted cocktail, a refreshing mocktail, or simply on its own.

On arrival, you'll receive a warm Highland welcome from our friendly team, who will guide you through the Afternoon Tea experience, and serve your chosen drinks from the bar.
