“ Got a recomendation from a local to give this a try, and we were not disappointed. The venue is small but cosy and the staff were lovely! We we blown away with the food, the haggis and black pudding pizza a highlight. Good choice of wines as well. Will be going again when next in the area. ”
“ The family at AtlasAdventured highly recommends dining here! After a long day of traveling, we arrived at our hotel in Inverness fairly late and we were starving. While our stay had restaurants on site, we were with our toddler and in need of something a bit more informal. Pizza sounded like the perfect option. After some research, we decided to check out Cheese & Tomatin. Such a great choice! The inside is cozy and smells delicious. They have a great food and drink selection, and there is also a kids pizza option. Our server was great giving us recommendations. We were wanting something traditional, and something unique. She recommended the 4 Cheese Pickled Walnut Pizza. It sounded so strange, but we are open and willing to try new things. It was so delicious! Super cheesy, the perfect amount of blue cheese, and the walnuts were so different, and so addicting. Our Diavola was very greasy, but delicious, and the kids pepperoni pizza was perfect. The crust is so good! Thank you for opening up our taste buds! We will definitely be back next time we’re in the area. ”
“ Was here with a friend (on a Thursday in November) and it was great! They offer take away and sit in. We got a cozy table in the small, warm restaurant and a very friendly and helpful waitress. She recommended the Nduja Pizza and I loved it. My friend had the Pizza Diavola which for him was just the right amount of spicy with the extra chili oil they offer for free. We also had amazing garlic bread as a side. When I asked her about local whisky she gave a detailed recommendation too. We felt welcomed and will definitely come here again on our next vacation! ”
“ Fantastic little place on Stephen's Brae, great atmosphere and great service. Ordered a haggis and black pudding pizza, which I was frankly quite sceptical about, but to my surprise it was absolutely amazing, both pizzas were! The desert was absurdly sweet but you can only expect that when you order a pizza covered in Biscoff spread and Nutella. The Tiramisu was fantastic, very akin to the type you get in Italy (not drowning in booze). Even if not ordering pizza, definitely worthwhile to visit just for coffee and desert. ”
“ Must have pizza in Inverness! The pizza was out of this world amazing... and I’ve eaten pizza all over the world. The restaurant is small and warm. The service (especially Angie) was first class. From the bruschetta, to the Spiced Italiano mocktail (non-drinkers), to the pizza (I recommend the Mediterranean Medley), to the dessert (the tiramisu is made in house and soooo good), this place was legit a 5 star experience. We will definitely be back! ”
“ This is a tiny little restaurant packed with personality. The lady serving us was charming, and attentive. The pizza was top notch, one of the best we have tried outside Italy. Can't recommend this restaurant highly enough. ”
“ AMAZING!!! REAL soft sourdough pizza dough, with loads of flavor. Amazing fermentation and nice leapording on the crust! Great experience with a nice atmosphere. Hands down the best food I have had on our 2 week vacation. Well done guys!! ”
“ Best pizza dough I've ever tasted. An absolute must if you're in the area. Staff are super lovely too. ”
