The Spey Inn

Scotland’s oldest drovers’ inn, pouring since 1703.

The Spey Inn

Three hundred years of the same idea

Drovers stopped here on their way to the cattle trysts, and little has changed: a dram, something hot to eat and good company. Guests and locals share the same bar.

The kitchen cooks seasonally from local producers, including S.A. Mackie’s Butchers, and the bar builds its cocktails on Speyside spirits. Most evenings, this is where the night starts.

“The true joy is the all-important mixture of locals and visitors… and the menu makes the very best of all that Scottish produce.”
