See more about this pub on WhatPub, CAMRA's national pub guide.

Set overlooking the green, beyond the beach and Moray Firth, The Bandstand Bar has five handpumps offering a great selection of local and regional Scottish ales, with the occasional English one. The HWI 2022 Pub of the Year holds popular spring and autumn beer festivals; said to be the biggest independent festivals in the UK, with 200+ ales and ciders from all over, they feature themed food and music acts over three days. The Seaview Restaurant offers great food at a keen price and there is live music every weekend. [Update 25 Jun 2024: "Six hand pumps in use on my visit today. All Scottish and local (if you include Orkney and Burnside) bar TT Landlord".]
