Wetherspoons. Some people turn their noses up but I like most of them. I mix using them with also supporting local traditional pubs and micro pubs. Opens from 08.00 am till late. You get reasonable good quality food at fairly low prices. Fast service and food available most of the time.Reasonable clean. Staff great. A fair range of Cask Beer kept in excellent quality. Usually busy with a mixture of people, drinkers, those eating and a few working remotely.

Visited from Australia. What a find! Housed in a wonderful old Bank building. Popular. Once you know that Wetherspoon represents, these establishments are everywhere. Very well priced food and drinks. Huge choices, special deals on top of the already well priced food. Welcoming. A little difficult to find the property as we were driving. A very good chain for dining/drinks/casual pub ambience.

Busy Wetherspoons pub always with a queue for service. Only had to wait 10 mins to be served but on previous visits I've been longer. There is an app but haven't used it here. Place getting a tad tired but hey, beers reasonably priced and so is the food (although it'll never win any Michelin stars☺️

The staff at the Archibald Simpson are a really great. I came with my family on the morning of 08/02/2025 at around 08:00 after a very ruff ferry ride from Orkney. The food was nice and as normal for a spoons it was cheep. Free refills of hot drinks, and only 10mins walk from the harbour made it a great place to pass some time before my train home. The bar staff, especially the lady behind the bar were really kind, chatty and helpful. The two cleaners too, where really king, helping me though doors with heavy bags and push chair. Next time I’m In Aberdeen I’ll definitely be back.

This particular building is amazing. Wetherspoon restored it very well. it has so much character specially love ceiling. The staff are a credit, polite and helpful. The food for the price is value for money and definitely hot chocolate is worth in freezing weather. The real ale is kept well. There gets plenty of people in across all age groups. Plenty of seating and nice atmosphere. Well work a visit

Visitando Aberdeen.(..bella città...peccato la pioggerella)abbiamo fatto sosta pranzo in questo locale. Già da fuori è imponente ma all'interno lo è anche di più.. bellissimo un po' old style bagni compresi😉. Per ordinare ti devi recare al bancone dicendo il numero del tavolo dopodiche ' un cameriere ti porta quanto ordinato al tavolo. Il menù è molto ampio ma noi,dato il poco tempo abbiamo optato per Hot Chicken e pizze con acqua e birre locali(molto buone);menù non esaltante ma discreto. Prezzo adeguato

The food itself is okay for the price, as it is ready-made and more affordable than the local ones around it. You have to go to the counter to order, coffee, tea and hot chocolate can be refilled freely at the machine towards the tables at the back. The ambience is very attractive and cozy.

Hermoso edificio, personal eficiente, servicio rápido pero uno de los macarrones más baratos y desagradables que he probado. Normalmente me siento seguro comiendo en Weatherspoons ya sea un desayuno vegetariano, patata al horno o curry suele saber bien y relación calidad-precio. Piense en un paquete de macarrones para reconstituir. Pequeño parche seco en el fondo de un hermoso tazón azul. Muy poca salsa de queso pegada a la pasta que sabía un poco como rodajas de queso. Dicho a mi marido parece asqueroso pero debería haberlo devuelto inmediatamente. No es culpa de los servidores, pero debe haber pensado "qué diablos". Volveré a pensar en sugerir cucharas.

Absolutamente el peor pequeño desayuno escocés de la historia, todo cremado y cocinado o ha estado bajo una lámpara de calor durante siglos antes de ser servido. El huevo era comestible pero crujiente alrededor de los bordes, la salchicha era insípida, el tocino era un trozo de crema de grasa dura, el bollo de patata demasiado cocido y duro alrededor de los bordes también. Mejor evitado para la comida, basura total y yo no habría alimentado esto a mi perro tbh

Aberdeen heeft meerdere vestigingen van JD Wetherspoon. Ik bezocht die in een voormalig bankgebouw, gecreëerd door Archibald Simpson naar wie het restaurant vernoemd is. Ik heb alleen een ingang met traptreden en weet niet of er een rolstoelvriendelijke is maar binnen is alles gelijkvloers. Zoals altijd bij Wetherspoon heb ik lekker gegeten en gedronken voor een leuke prijs.

Don't go here if you are a dog owner. We we sitting out on the tables on the pavement and were treated like a menace to society because we had a dog with us. There were no other customers outside but the officious duty manager took great pleasure in refusing us further service and asking us to leave the premises purely because of our dog being next to us on the pavement. Another duty manager then came to talk to us and apologised for the rules that Wetherspoons have regarding dogs and then said that one of their regular customers brings his dog and ties it to the railings opposite the seating area so he can have a pint without breaking the rules. This apparently is ok but having a paw inside the seating area gets you asked to leave. Thanks Wetherspoons for your very poor customer service on this occasion.

Went to the place as an asian and was completely ignored by the staffs, while other customers were still being served as usual. One of the serving staff (guy) was intentionally looking at our table and my friend caught his eye contact where he just chose to ignore us completely. The rest of the staffs just pretended to be busy and avoided walking to the table to take orders when the place was not even that full. Terrible staff service - at the very least. Would recommend going to a different place in Aberdeen for eating as Archibald is not the only place around

Im a young single female who was dining alone. After ordering a meal with hot chocolate I discovered the hot drink machine was broken as I heard a young boy telling his Dad he couldn’t get it to work, I informed a male bartender that myself and young lad were unable to get our drinks - he rudely told me it was none of his business and to speak to the manager then walked away. I was quite upset by this but did as he said. And the manager proceeded to tell me that even though the machine was broken and only filling half way up, that this was fine and I was being a pest. So I sat down to finish my meal with tears in my eyes, then a 3rd member of staff came up to my table while I had a mouth full of food to verbally abuse me. I had to ask him to leave and to please let me finish my food which I had already paid for. The said members of staff continued to stare at me until I left which made me feel intimidated beyond words. To be treated like this by 3 separate members of staff is abhorrent and they should be ashamed of themselves, I can’t help but think if I were a 6ft 200 pound man i might of been treated with an ounce of decency.

My stay at this hotel was truly haunting. Never before have I felt so uneasy being in a hotel. I understand that at £44 for two people I can't ask for much.... But Christ it was unreal how awful everything was. The room was filthy with residue in the toilet, hair on the shower floor. And a lovely view of a stone wall outside. A lick of paint to cover up the stains on the wall is the least you could possibly ask for. Never mind all the stains from coffee mugs everywhere, with the surfaces still being sticky. No hot water in the room either, I felt violated just being in the shower with the piddly water pressure from it. Also everything smelled odd?? And the service from the receptionist was ridiculous. When asking where our room is all we were told was "it's in the next building upstairs, look for it in there" barely any manners. An absolutely revolting hotel unworthy of it's 3 star rating.....

The nicest, kindest people work here. My son and I are very happy. It was nice from the moment we entered the hotel because we were greeted by nice gentlemen and one little gentleman, helpful with suitcases, bags, took us to the door of the room, explaining everything on the way. The lady who asked me and my son the next day if we were comfortable or overcame if the room suits us. It makes you want to come back here!!!

What a total disgrace of a place. Definately not worth a penny. Menu states minimum of 3 meats but woman carving tells me i can have more than 3. Veg was still raw. Roast potatoes certainly do not see the oven. 3 pots of gravy sitting with thick skin on them. I have never heard or seen of having mac n cheese with a carvwry but need to to make the plate look like it has food on it. When complained about it the server just looked at us as if to say so what. £14.49 each x3 £4.05 for a refill glass and machine is flat. If i had it my way and my partner wasnt such a coward i would have walked out and never paid a penny. Can rest assure we will never step foot in that establishment again. 1 star is being generous only to be able to make a review
