Archibald Simpson in Aberdeen City

Mi novia y yo estuvimos ayer en Wetherspoon para almorzar, pero esperamos aproximadamente una hora para que la comida llegara a nuestra mesa, pero estaba muy ocupado, pero tuvimos mucha paciencia

Busy on day if visit. Great day had by all. Well worth a visit.

Clean, good food, choice of tables heights and spaces to sit. Service was good. Would visit again.

If I could give 0 stars I genuinely would awful experience horrible staff awful food -chips soggy and microwaved and Christmas dinner stone cols staff were overwhelmingly rude apart from one gentleman with grey shirt on who looked like the manager

A fantastic building which wetherspoons has restored with great respect. Don't you just love a spoons! Great selection of cask ales at great prices

This place has everything you need for a great night out! The drinks menu is impressive, with plenty of tasty options, but the real star was the chips and curry sauce—absolutely delicious! Perfect mix of flavor and comfort. If you’re looking for good vibes and fantastic pub food, this spot is a must-visit!

Perfect place for breakfast. I enjoy my vegetarian breakfast here 😋

Great choice of beers 🍻 Great pub, great staff. It's a Spoons, so you know exactly what you are going to get.

Food was amazing and a free drink with it.. Friendly people..Staff were so helpful. Will be back very soon.. Thanks

Always good service and excellent value

Fast food, eggs overdone, black pudding dry. No mushrooms beans or tomatoes on the breakfast. All extras. £6 in England get them all

Nice and cheap for food and drinks

Great food at great prices. If you need the toilet make sure you have your hiking boots.

Lovely breakfast and will be back in November

Nice place when in town breakfast cheap and decent plus you get unlimited tea coffee

Busy place at weekends. Still large queues at times. It's a Wetherspoons.

The food is great and affordable.

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.

Food was not great, cutlery had dried porridge on them... Not a great experience to be honest

Great place to go for cocktails good food and good service.

Mi novia y yo estuvimos en Wetherspoon hoy para nuestro almuerzo y fue tan sabroso y delicioso y fresco y muy barato, así como las patatas fritas se cocinaron triple?

Rude staff! One of the bar staff(male)followed my wife into the toilet,saying they were "checking "them! Staff refused to take complaint,and would not give their names. Horrible, Horrible, Horrible!!! Will NOT be back!

Great Scottish breakfast Quality lunch and not too expensive The environment is very pleasant

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.

Nice pub with a pleasant atmosphere.

As always it is what it is, cheap well presented good food and drink. Can't fault it.

Nice pub with a pleasant atmosphere.

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

Steak Tuesday, but no steaks. Had a pizza instead, very nice.

A typical Whetherspoon food and drink, standard quality. However the environment is exceptionally good.

We have had breakfast here a lot, and i would say that it is ok for the money you pay.

Typical Wetherspoons, beautiful building, will be back the next time I'm in the area.

Nunca he experimentado personal tan grosero en mi vida. Para uno que usa cucharas de intemperie regularmente, ¡nunca más volveré a meterme en otra cuchara!

Cozy little pub in centre of Aberdeen Cocktails were nice

Very good price and a very nice place

A more interesting Wetherspoons, good table service, busy on my visit.

Shocking service two staff was very unpleasant looked like mother n daughter

Delicious coffe in top luxury restaurant

What's not to like about cheap food & drink.

Cheep and chearful, t good for the price with special deals, food and a pint. For a wee bit extra. Wish they had background music 🎶

We only had a drink, but the old building was kept in top condition. An incredible atmosphere. Prices can't be beat

Old Clydebank Bank. Granite building .Central Hall/ side room + outside seating. 12 h/ pulls service good. Standard spoons menu.

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.

Nice cheap drinks and food well worth the money. The architecture is very beautiful to look at. Good place for a small night out.

Just a Standard Witherspoons, Good Food, Good Choice of Drinks.

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 there for after show drinks. Nice atmosphere, table service was efficient.

Just a bit fussy about food, coming from overseas. Bit of an average menu for me. Otherwise, nice place.

Great service and food lovely and hot. Wonderful architecture.

Friendly happy staff ,great service ,food and drinksssssss at a reasonable price .

Bartender falsely accused us of spewing in the toilet. Appalling service and no apology.

Staff are always lovely and welcoming. Atmosphere is lively and energetic. best place in Aberdeen for a pint.

Busy for a Tuesday afternoon. Food typical cheap eats but for the price it's good

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

Had arranged to meet friends in here and have something to eat, unfortunately they had ran out of Fish, Nice friendly atmosphere, Bar staff pleasant

Escaping the deluge we ran into The Archibald for a swift lemonade. Typical Wetherspoons pub, everything it's place and a ten mile hike to the toilets. Take an energy bar, you'll need it just to have a wazz.

You always have to wait ,as not enough staff on tills

Good food, great cocktails and an amazing price!

Again, another 'Spoons' with no mixed grill or steak. The meal I did have was very good, but not what I required.

Chips ain't as good as they used to be but the rest is top tier pub grub

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.

Food was not hot - order the 3 for ? Dishes then after receiving 2 dishes the 3rd 1 wld b a few minutes - bout 10 mins later they arrived think having been just cooked they wld b piping hot well no they were just warm - chicken breast burger was. Luke warm and not taste to it at all

As always, great vibe. Really decent prices. Served very quickly. Ace atmosphere

Convenient city centre Spoons, very busy when I visited but otherwise mostly a standard Spoons.

Breakfast today was shocking. Cold, uncooked items and coffee machine broken. Staff were nowhere to be seen and tables were unclean and plates everywhere. What’s going on? So much for the kitchen refurb. Come on, you can do better than this.

I've not been into a Spoons for years! This building is lovely, with huge ceilings with chandeliers glistening from the ornate gold ceiling! And it used to be a bank. Breakfast was really good, hot, fresh, and served with a smile and under £5! Great price for a full English. Drinks were really reasonable compared to other pubs!!

Excellent quality-price relationship.

Better Breakfast than Counting house Glasgow nice clean toilets as well

What can you say.... it's a spoons

A great full English breakfast with free tea/coffee, served in a very timely manner. Hot, fresh with a lovely, soft, fried egg! The best bit was the price, under £5

Place was good but prices were excellent

A lot of the food items were sold out

Classic spoons vibe amazing prices ..... 4 pints a wine and a jack and coke £20 .... incredible 🙌

Grand pub prices etc but I'm getting too auld fir the quarter mile hike fir a pee.

Ordered a Fiesta burger and they did not include the key ingredients that make it worthwhile, the guacamole, aubergine, and salsa. Just tell me if you don't have the ingredients.

The pizza was not done, the burgers small, over done, the bread dry, red onions a joke. And the chips soggy. And for this we waited for 45 minutes!!! Burger King and McDonald's are far better. This is no value for money.

A grand building with high ceilings, historic character and plenty of natural light. The breakfast is good for a Wetherspoons restaurant.

Food gets worse every time I go in. Less selection, worse quality and less quantity. Not going to eat here again, simply not worth it.

Went here with my husband for lunch and was in disbelief at how bad the scampi was. It looked undercooked, very pale and falling out of the whitish breadcrumbs. When we told the waitress this it turned out it was cooked in the oven and we weren't informed of this when we ordered. We were frustrated as we were looking forward to eating here for the first time because we have had scampi many times in the other Wetherspoons in Aberdeen and there has never been a problem.

Nipped in for some lunch when out shopping with bf normally our fav place to eat but they have now cut down most of the menu like they only do a chicken burger or pizza a few pasta dishes of a curry they cut they rest off the menu and don’t even service chips with meals anymore just baked potatoe need to find new place for cheap lunch

Dirty tables good food Compared to other weatherspoons the food was on a par so 5 stars for cheap food deals, glad I had the nappy bag with us though the table needed a good wipe down

Quick delivery when order online. Very interesting view of manager on food choice, lots of staff out of stock, but can choose something and it is high quality, very fresh rocket leaves with the eggs benedict and previous evenening baked potato with tuna very fresh salad, and by the way glad to see this option in the menu, as venues like Edinburgh and Manchester do not give this option any more and that took me to get meal in the other places. Thank you Archibald in Aberdeen, you impressed me today!!!

Very busy,having visited the other Wether spoons on Aberdeen ,we thought we'd give this one ago. My wife's fish was overcooked,the chips were so so. I had the 5 bean chilli. It was fine however the rice was hard . Saving grace the desserts were fabulous. Overall though disappointed.

Great location, nice interior. Service really struggled when busy.

Very good, staff were all excellent. Cannot fault the place. Edit to say I'm back again, excellent staff and hospitality again. Keep it up whoever the gaffer is. You've got great staff here.

Great spoons that always seems to be busy Beautiful wooden panels and details inside Look down at the beautiful mosaic floor at the entrance Had table service and staff where friendly though a bit rushed but the place was heaving

I liked this branch of Wetherspoons, it's in another renovated building, I really liked the way it's done. I wish I'd had time to stay longer. The space, there's one big room, with another longer room running along side it. There is a third room running off at right angles. They're all full of tables and most were occupied on a Thursday lunchtime. Service was quick, (breaded scampi snack) and a couple of lattes finished off what was too short a visit. A note about parking, this is a city centre 'spoons, so there's not much parking available. Not that I saw. Just a small amount of on street parking.

The disgusted facial expression of the waitress this afternoon, who cleared my plate with the left over fat from the steak on it, pretty much sums it up. And not even a word from her. Says it all really…

great place to meet up for a cheapish meal and drink

圣诞节当天上午去的，店里就两个店员，有几个像西部牛仔的老头在店里面喝酒🍺，不知道为啥，既然没有节日气氛，也回家和朋友聚会吧，出来没有一家店营业的，过了个啥年呀这

Myself and the wife dropped in by archies on Monday for a quick lunch couldnt believe we got two meals and two pints of juice for £22 unbelievable value, food was great and always a decent vibe in the place. See you again soon

City centre large spaced building. Loads of bar style seating but some tables. As expected with Wetherspoons, well priced, extensive selection of drinks and food. No tv or music. Busy but several friendly bar staff so no wait. Not upmarket but cannot be faulted.

Super décor, super bouffe, pour le prix

Staff are very helpful, food is good. Great place to go

Been here a few times when working in the area. You know what you are getting from a spoons. This particular one the building is amazing, it has so much character. The staff are a credit, polite and extremely helpful. The food for the price is value for money and definitely filled a hole. The real ale is kept well. There gets plenty of people in across all age groups. Well work a visit

Bestest breakfast fan Jorgie on shift

Breakfast for 4 thus morning. Delicious. I recommend the haggis roll. Hot drinks machine a bit dodgy and it was fixed immediately by a friendly and courteous staff member. Well done. Also beautiful surroundings.

Lovely meals great atmosphere keen prices

Amazing atmosphere, convenient location and great prices!
