A popular Inverness cafe is under new management as a market trader expands his portfolio.
Ambiance has been bought over by the Paulo family, owners of the existing Cafe de Paulo.
The takeover marks the trader’s second venture within the city’s Victorian Market.
Sharing the news on social media, the proud owners expressed the cafe would be their “latest baby”.
They wrote: “The dream continues.
“Today, we are delighted and proud to have taken ownership of our latest “baby.” Welcome Ambiance Cafe to the Paulo family.
“We look forward to settling in and getting to know all the regulars and visitors to Victorian Market Inverness.”
