The Mustard Seed Restaurant Open since 1995, the simple cooking and warm, friendly atmosphere has allowed The Mustard Seed to become one of Inverness’s favourite restaurants.
(2382)

The Location on the banks of the River Ness in a converted church building is simply stunning and helps create the wonderful ambience. The transformation from disused church to restaurant created a unique space; with a double-height ceiling and magnificent open log fire. Many of the original period features were retained and combined with a mix of natural and modern finishes. The addition of the terrace on the top floor allows alfresco dining and uninterrupted views of the River, another amazing asset for the restaurant.

From Munros of Inverness sirloin steak and Gressingham duck to Scottish salmon and monkfish, there’s plenty to tempt. And for something plant-based, our butternut squash and red lentil Wellington is a delicious autumn choice.

We’re very busy, so booking in advance is highly recommended to avoid disappointment.

We look forward to welcoming you!

Reviews like this genuinely make our day 💛

A huge thank you to Douglas, who has been visiting The Mustard Seed for 13+ years, for these wonderful words.

“It’s not often you find a restaurant that maintains such a high standard year after year, but the Mustard Seed really does.”

To know that Douglas has been coming back to us for more than 13 years and still feels so warmly about his visits really does mean the world to all of us.

Thank you, Douglas. You’ve made us very happy! 💛

Well… we might still be enjoying summer, but Christmas has officially arrived at The Mustard Seed.

We’re still making the most of the long summer evenings and the wonderful bustle of visitors in Inverness, but behind the scenes, we’ve been busy preparing for the festive season.

With just over 16 weeks to go, we’re delighted to finally reveal our 2026 Christmas Menu - after plenty of tasting, tweaking and fine-tuning, we think it’s rather special.

Christmas at The Mustard Seed… watch this space!

We’re still enjoying the lovely summer bustle here at The Mustard Seed, but behind the scenes, we’re already thinking about Christmas.

Our Christmas menus are being fine-tuned, and we’ll be sharing them with you on 1 September.

This year, we’re also giving the restaurant an extra touch of Christmas magic, with new festive decorations creating a beautiful, luxurious atmosphere - a wonderfully festive Mustard Seed and the perfect setting for your Christmas dining experience.

We can’t wait to share more with you soon!
