About Coyote Burger
Coyote Burger is a smash-burger restaurant and cocktail bar on Bank Street in Inverness city centre.

Customer Review Summary
The haggis smash burger is the most frequent draw, described as full of flavour and one of the best smash burgers a reviewer has tasted. Close behind is the brisket chilli beef burger, praised for loads of brisket and crispy onions, with one diner adding the massive mac and cheese balls. Reviewers also name the hangry chicken burger, a chicken BBQ burger with real battered chicken, and a bacon burger with an extra patty called succulent. Dirty, cheesy and jalapeno fries come in huge portions. Hard Shakes, a strawberry milkshake, a raspberry mojito and the range of Scotch get mentions too. Staff are repeatedly called friendly and attentive. Ordering by QR code split opinion: one reviewer liked it because the accent was hard to follow, while another would rather order from a waiter than an app. One reviewer found the food slow on a busy Friday night, and another thought the bathrooms could be cleaned more often. Several mention the window view over the River Ness.

“Wow! Holy cow ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend a visit to Coyote Burger! Visiting Inverness for training this week, and after a long day of study I decided to Google the best burger in Inverness near me - and this gem popped up! I’d seen it recently on Instagram when I spent more time researching burgers ahead of travelling to Inverness. So glad it came up as a recommendation. It was a no brainer that I went for the Haggis Smash burger and side of fries. Hands down one of the best smash burgers I’ve ever tasted! Full of flavour and every mouthful was amazing! Dining solo I tried not to wiggle and dance as I ate 😂 Coyote Burger was the best date I’ve taken myself on. Unfortunately I’d demolished a giant doughnut from a local baker just 1/2 hour before my arrival to Coyote Burger, so was embarrassingly defeated by the Smash Burger! The burger was perfection, fries delish… and a Strawberry milkshake to accompany like I would have in America on childhood holidays! Finished with an Amaretto Sour because I remembered I’m an adult and can do that 😂✨ The staff were really friendly, hardworking and attentive. The place looks awesome and great atmosphere. Look forward to my next visit already! Thank you 💓”

“Absolutely delicious juicy burgers and fries. We had the hangry chicken and the haggis burger with cheesy fries and jalapeno fries. Huge portions and very yummy. Also nice cocktails (try the raspberry mojito). You can order via a qr code or just with the waiters. We loved the qr code option, since we struggled a bit with the scottish accent. Food came very quick. Bathrooms were decent, could be cleaned more often maybe.”

“Maybe I'm old fashioned but when I sit in a restaurant I'd like to order at waiter and not through an app. Burger was great though. And the view at the window over the river Ness is incredible!”

“Great burger place! Love the "Hard Shakes" we had the Chicken BBQ burgers and a poutine to share, the chicken was actually chicken with batter not the other way around top notch!”

“Just a quick stop here for the best burger in town and wasn’t disappointed. I went for a bacon burger with an extra patty. The burger was so succulent and really well cooked. And very filling. The staff are all really friendly and a nice view of the river. Thank you.”
