Nicky Tams

You can find the wonderfully comfortable Nicky Tams tucked around the back of the riverside Glen Mhor Hotel. In summer, there's a small patio where you can catch some rays and sip on real ales; come winter, the log fire is always stoked inside the cosy pub. With its well-padded armchairs, it's easy to relax in this lounge-style bar and if you're a whisky-drinker, Nicky Tams boasts three local malts that are no longer being produced -- the Glenalbyn, the Millburn and the Glen Mhor. Nicky Tams is a charming retreat from the bustle of central Inverness.
