2 Best Places to Shop in Inverness and Around the Great Glen, Scotland

Brodie Countryfare

Fodor's choice

Visit Brodie Countryfare only if you're feeling flush: you may covet the unusual knitwear, quality designer clothing and shoes, gifts, and toys, but they are not cheap. The excellent restaurant, on the other hand, is quite inexpensive. In a rush? Pick up some delicious savory treats, like scotch eggs and sausage rolls, from the deli counter.

Leakey's Bookshop

Fodor's choice

This shop claims to be Scotland's largest secondhand bookstore. When you get tired of leafing through the 100,000 or so titles, climb to the mezzanine café and study the cavernous church interior, complete with wood-burning fire. Antique prints and maps are housed on the balcony.
