Handy for popping in for some lunch. Meals are usually made quite quickly, so doesn't consume much of your time. Hate the fact the toilet is so far away but!

Very good staff and excellent coffee.... Archibald Simpson was a master architect. This wonderful masterpiece.............. now Wetherspoons....... The Archibald Simpson was a former bank. Together with Marisçhal College (University of Aberdeen)and St Andrews Cathedral in Aberdeen , these are three of the finest buildings in Aberdeen to have been preserved for future generations to use and enjoy.

Wetherspoons pub convertido de Ex Clydesdale Bank construido en 1800 por un famoso arquitecto cuyo nombre lleva. Enorme edificio de techos abovedados altos pilares de mármol y suelos de baldosas. Precioso bar. Ambiente muy frío Conversaciones silenciadas y aireadas. Muchas mesas de madera oscura no se aprietan juntas para que uno no sienta que el espacio privado está siendo invadido Según la política de cucharas, el personal del bar usa cámaras. Me dijeron que nunca hubo problemas con los clientes. Creo que atrae a una clientela más madura para que pueda ver por qué. El chico que tomó mi pedido fue un poco lento y tuvo que ser asistido en tomar mi pedido y tomar el pago, pero yo no tenía prisa. Pedí lasaña con patatas fritas y un agua tónica doble que me costó £ 10. 90 El servicio fue bastante rápido. Todo lo que había en el plato era lasaña y patatas fritas nada más. El servidor era un poco impersonal. No me dijo dónde conseguir condimentos. Tenía que preguntar. No me sentía particularmente valorado. Sólo otra orden. No creo que la moral del personal esté alta. La lasaña era una porción de buen tamaño y húmeda. Cantidad decente de sabores carnosos y quesos. La parte superior de la lasaña estaba empapada y no crujiente. Las patatas fritas eran de un buen tamaño pero un poco robustas y secas. Un plato de comida producido en masa. Creo que las cadenas de pubs han arruinado la comida. Mi mesa se limpió bastante rápido, pero me relajé un rato. Los factores negativos para mí fueron las actitudes de los camareros y la comida era bastante estándar y no respeta la calidad o el patrimonio del edificio en el que está. Es como ir al hotel Savoy por una hamburguesa McDonald's.

Ex Clydesdale Bank designed by the pub it's named after. Amazing tiled floor and ceilings with chandeliers and dark wood and marbled pillars and a huge bar Atmosphere is very old school. No music TV's on but muted airy Very chilled out. I had a lasagna and chips.The lasagna was a large portion and the chips were okay. The young man behind the bar was being mentored so I had to be patient Food came quick. I asked for a refill of tonic water but was told I had to go to the bar. Cost £10.90. Just the place to go to chill out

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.

El personal siempre es muy amable y siempre responde a cualquier pregunta que hacemos, ya sea sobre cualquier alimento no disponible o recomendaciones.

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.

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

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.

I usually come here for breakfast every Sunday but I think this will be my last. The food is absolutely appalling. Overcooked breakfast. The breakfast muffin was brick hard and the cheese was obviously out for too long. The bacon was dry and disgusting. Ive been seeing them leaving trays of bacon etc out so its just dried out and hard. The cheese on the muffin was solid and vile. I also ordered a warm cookie dough and it was cold and ice cream completely melted. I know this isn't a 5* restaurant but they really need to have a look at what the chefs are doing. The breakfast is just disgusting. Definitely the worst wetherspoons brekky out there. Edit: My partner now has an extremely upset stomach.

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!!!
