Carlie Chans

A Chinese takeaway on Young Street in the Merkinch area on the west side of Inverness, Carlie Chans — also known as Charlie Chans at this address — is a neighbourhood carryout serving the residential streets west of the River Ness. The Merkinch area is a working-class community between the River Ness and the Caledonian Canal, with Young Street as one of its main commercial arteries. The menu covers the standard Cantonese takeaway range: stir-fries, fried rice, noodle dishes, and the usual Chinese-takeaway sides. The location near the Telford Street junction gives it access to a wider west-Inverness catchment beyond the immediate Merkinch streets. A straightforward neighbourhood Chinese option on the west bank, distinct from the Tomnahurich Street outlet run under the same operator name.
