Shopping in Inverness

As one of Scotland’s biggest cities, Inverness has plenty to do for those seeking entertainment and just a good time out. A very popular activity for locals and visitors alike is shopping, and the city of Inverness certainly does not disappoint.

For a classic shopping experience Inverness Victorian Market should be at the top of the list. This wonderful market, established in 1890 by the local council, has numerous individual small outlets that sell unique products that you will not find in the bigger shopping centres of the city. It is the sort of venue at which you will find everything from antique china to model railways to health products. There are also plenty of traditional food stores and stalls such as a butchery, a fishmonger and tea shops.

Eastgate Shopping Centre is the place to be if you are looking for a modern brand-busting shopping experience. It is one of the retail success stories in Scotland and is now expanding to 350,000 square feet of retail accommodation. This well appointed shopping centre has all the big brand stores as well as a food court for the hungry.

There are plenty of other unique shopping spots worth visiting for those staying over in Inverness hotels. If you have an interest in old maps, antique prints and old books, a visit to Leakeys in the Greyfriars Hall is a good place to visit. The Highland House of Frasier has a big range of kilts and tartan while Chisholms, near Inverness Castle, has an even bigger selection of tartan.
