One of the best decisions I made in Aberdeen was deciding to stop here to kill some time waiting for friends. A very friendly and welcoming bunch, and Scott the barman was hospitable and amazing. You won't regret stopping here for a bit of Scottish cultural immersion and great chat with the locals. (Also the fish and chips next door was fantastic, and I don't often like fish).

Lovely wee place serving fish and chips etc. from adjoining fish takeawaý. Excellent idea combining the two places. Nice to be able to sit in and have a drink. Lovely girl serving and as we were visitors to the area she pointed us in the right direction with regard to buses etc. Great help to us

AVOID AT ALL COSTS Bar very basic, Glasses filthy. I had bottled beer so it was ok but my colleague had draft larger followed by gut rot! Myself and my colleague were walked through the kitchen to get to our accommodation which after seeing the kitchen put us off wanting to eat there. We were then shown to the £75.00 a night accommodation which was disgusting! The room had no ensuite which is fair enough but we weren't expecting to have to share a bathroom with the landlady and her entire family, the toilet looked like it had never seen a bottle of bleach, it was pure filth. The bath was black with grime and to be fair I wouldn't of even bathed my dog in it let alone use it myself. We did suffer 1 out of the original 6 nights booked to be woken by the landlords coming in shouting after 1am which seeing's we were up early for work was totally inconsiderate. We felt totally robbed at having to pay £75.00 for what i can say was an experience never to be repeated!

Great pub with equality decent food. Relaxed atmosphere with class pub quizzes, poker and folk music held through the week that combined with very reasonable prices with pints as low as 3.99 (Tennents), it's definitely an establishment I'd recommend.

I thought it was a brilliant idea, so joined the queue and wanted to give everything in my wallet to support this cause. - over £85 just for a coffee. But I was refused! The girl packing food bags said ‘they were closed to customers during handouts’ I tried to say I wanted to support them, but no. I was turned away. Ok. I run a Charity. (SC050679), and know good funding streams, and am an elected councillor, so I will wait till they fail, then do better. Big Mistake.

I have been multiple times when I holiday in Aberdeen. On almost every occasion, the food has been delicious and incredible (but very pricey). However losing one star because on my last visit my salads were swimming in oil, I had to pour off about half a teacupful of oil. Everything still tasted greasy. I assume someone else made the salads that day and had screwed it up. The postings about dirty cutlery and dirty floors and tables that need wiping and clearing are correct. The staff could be a LOT more active and attentive to these important details rather than stand around absently as they often seem to do.
