The Ben Nevis Bar and Restaurant is at the heart of the bustling Highland town of Fort William.

Built in 1806 as an inn for cattle drovers, the award-winning Ben Nevis today attracts a vibrant mix of locals and tourists, drawn by its fantastic food, local beers and whiskies and lively atmosphere.

Newly refurbished with a modern yet traditional Scottish feel, the Ben Nevis has a fast-paced restaurant showcasing the best local produce and fresh seafood alongside hearty favourites – ideal for refuelling before or after the many year-round outdoor activities Fort William has to offer.

There’s also a cosy whisky bar, perfect for enjoying a dram from our impressive whisky range; and a stunning terrace offering spectacular views over Loch Linnhe.  

And our friendly team are always on hand to share local knowledge or a friendly chat over the bar!

Entertainment is a big part of the offer at the Ben Nevis, with regular pub quizzes and live music – the perfect end to a day exploring the gateway to the Highlands or tackling Scotland’s most famous Munro, Ben Nevis, after which we are named!
