Bridge House Cafe in Aberdeenshire

Fantastic find in Ballater, service, food and cleanliness was great, dog 🐕 friendly as are most places in Ballater. Will certainly be back!!

Visited about a months ago and very happy with the food and service we had.

very poorly made and tasting soup and sandwich - quality has gone downhill since our last visit - left most of food and ordered more lunch in another cafe

Lovely breakfast, very tasty. The staff was very nice and helpful. Good atmosphere. Recommended, special on these cold January days.

Incredible, the owners are such lovely people and very helpful. Definitely made our stay in ballater welcoming. Will probably be back tomorrow morning 😁

Nicest people we have met! Food was amazing!!!!

I was absolutely astonished by the rudeness of the male staff member working today and to be honest it totally ruined our experience. I didn't realise the food on the menu was pre-made so asked for a baguette with 3 ingredients not realising it would be a problem. When the young girl at the til advised me that they didn't have what I asked for, I asked if it was possible to have it made it and she said no which is fine. I then asked what did they have available for vegetarians thinking that because they were pre-made they might not have everything available as it was getting later on in the day. She asked the gentleman making the food what was available for vegetarians and he walked away while mumbling something under his breath, went through the back, and then shouted through ITS ALL ON THE MENU in a disgruntled way. I was so taken aback. Talk about good customer service during the festive period wow. The poor girl at the til had to then apologise for his behaviour after seeing how I had not taken kindly to his rudeness. The food is fine. Nothing special. Very limited menu and very overpriced for what it is. Had my Dad not been extremely hungry I would have walked out after being spoken to like that. I am all for supporting local small business but there's absolutely no way I would return. The customer service was lacking throughout. Watching the female server interact with other customers she also appeared irked by the existence of people in the cafe. Perhaps if you don't like the general public your business shouldn't be based on providing a service to them!

We stayed in Birkhall for 5 days and managed two visits to the restaurant. On both occasions, we had a friendly welcome. Excellent service with great custom service. We felt the service was attentive. The food was excellent on both occasions, fresh local produce and well cooked. The coffee we ordered were hot and better made than Starbucks hit and miss. We will return to Ballater in 2024 and will certainly visit again. I don't leave reviews often at all but felt the service we received deserved one.

Nice place. There's not much to see, but pretty, and the people are friendly

One of the best places for breakfast in Aberdeenshire. We have been here many times and every time we throughly enjoy the food. Bacon rolls, pancake stack and soups are especially fantastic.

Stopped in for lunch food was excellent. Hade a haggis mozzarella and sweet chilli sauce with pea soup. Both very good. Kids had pancakes nice with strawberry and bacon both ate the lot.Would come again

Food, coffee and service always great and super dog friendly. Barkin brunch and dog friendly pancakes always a favourite when we visit.

Warm and friendly service together with great food, what's not to like! Super coffee too!

This morning, I went to the Bridge House Café and ordered a Haggis and Black pudding Sausage roll. I saw this written on the menu board. As I am a lover of both Haggis and Black pudding, I couldn't resist; I have to try it. It came with fried egg, tomatoes and a portion of baked beans. It was delicious and well-presented. The pastry was well-coloured and crispy. It was a feast for the eyes and taste buds; the taste jumped out. With a good cup of coffee, my morning couldn't be better and a pleasant start to the day. Kudos to the chef and the team. No doubt about it, Anthony; I'll be back soon.

Lovely lunch, good kids options and rather nice cakes

Overpriced, rude staff and average food

It is a great place to have some delicious food. Great shop next door also with lots of quality things gor sale.

The Full Scottish Breakfast we had this morning was very nice, very fresh tasting and well cooked. The staff were friendly and there’s a nice atmosphere. We will definitely return the next time we are in Ballater. Highly recommended.

Everything was great and importantly we could take our dog in.

In summary, the worst breakfast I've ever ordered! Overpriced, stingy and luke warm. One egg, one tattie scone, one sausage, one slice of toast and half a raw tomato for ten quid (the photo tells the entire sad story). We both left still feeling hungry, which is the opposite of what you'd have hoped from a cooked breakfast - we ended up stopping at the Bothy in Braemar afterwards as we were still hungry (wish we'd went here for breakfast instead and can highly recommend here as an alternative to Bridge House!!). No beans or mushrooms, and excluding the toast that you'd expect as standard with any breakfast, there were only three and a half items on the plate! A pack of six tattie scones is 90p, box of six eggs £1.50, four pack of veggie lorne sausage is £2.25, six pack of tomatoes 85p and a loaf of bread £1.60 from the supermarket - so one egg, one tattie scone, one sausage, one slice of toast and half a tomato adds up to about £1.22. I know we're in an cost of living crisis but who is doing well out of this? Certainly not the customers of Bridge House Cafe! To top it off, it was luke warm. My friend also had one of their fancy hot chocolates - watery and tasteless. Ultimately, this place is all style and no substance. I, however, cannot fault the waiting staff who were the only saving grace as they were all lovely and this is clearly a management issue (if management say otherwise then it only highlights that management are the issue). You have to order at the till and so we had already paid by the time our food arrived, which is very sneaky of management as I would not have paid for this if I hadn't already! The staff were lovely and we didn't want to further ruin our experience by having to have an uncomfortable conversation with them about the management's decision to offer up such stingy portions for their breakfasts. I actually left feeling ashamed, knowing that so many tourists pass through Ballater and this pathetic breakfast is the impression visitors will have of a "full" Scottish veggie breakfast. Needless to say, we won't be back.

Nice cafe and food was nice enough, but not impressed with the service today. When I arrived, my friend had ordered tea, but they forgot milk, and I had to go and request some. Then I ordered my lunch and just realised after leaving that they forgot to bring the soup that I ordered. And we only got out dog ice cream because I asked for it as well. Not sure if they were having a bad day, but not the best.

No welcome on arrival, no soup, no pre-warning there was no soup, no second visit! Shame they don’t want repeat customers.

As there were 5 of us looking for breakfast we needed somewhere with larger tables. The full Scottish breakfast was one of the best we’ve had and the breakfast rolls were delicious. It was all served very quickly by friendly staff. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Perfect. Lovely staff taking orders and serving food.

Super coffee and homemade cake in a lovely airy café with pleasing artwork and decor. The attached shop is full of lovely items and well worth a good browse

What a great find. Firstly dog friendly, secondly a really warm welcome and thirdly great food and service. We had breakfast there during our short stay but couldn’t have asked for better. Thank you for looking after us .

What a great find! Firstly dog friendly, secondly a warm welcome and thirdly great food and value for money. Thanks for making us so welcome and looking after us.

Lovely place. Very dog friendly (homemade dog pancakes on menu). We had human version with bacon and syrup. Delicious.

Had today a lovely lunch at the Bridge House Cafe. Pancakes, a Chicken baguette and coffee. It was spot on, lovely and well presented. Staff was wonderful. Thank you Antony and the team. Will come back absolutely!

Ballater is a lovely small town to stroll around; all the usual upmarket gift stores, bookstores which offer something to read on holiday, and plenty of different games and puzzles should you be staying here and find the weather gets a bit wet and grey! And in the summer, you might come here for the Highland Games. If you are in town and looking for a place to eat during the day, Bridge House cafe has a lot to recommend it. Coffee and cake or sandwiches with either soup or salad, there is a range of options in every category. They were happy to prepare a gluten free sandwich for our daughter. We also appreciated the friendly and efficient service, and the pleasant indoor eating space with a bit of character, and an attached gift store (of course) which you walk through to get to the toilets. The big glass shopfront windows let in plenty of light and enable you to watch the world pass by.

Subjective? Perhaps but we were not alone in our experience today. My daughter met the mother of a family of six - eating by the window - in the Ladies who, bemoaning the cleanliness of the bathrooms, shared our thoughts on both the food and service. We did follow the lunchtime rush, admittedly, but there were no baked potatoes and little choice of vegetarian paninis. However, it was the attitude of the older woman which irked. My son is gluten-free and, eventually, it was agreed that they would make him up a panini/toastie. Happy to wait - but not that long - two paninis were brought (£9.95 each) on plates filled with non-descript crisps and the most basic of salads. The gluten-free one? Whoops! They made a mistake - after 15 minutes - and would make one up! Five minutes later, the same plate of cheap crisps and salad arrived with a tiny toasted sandwich - the END of the loaf? Filling? Apologies for pieces of chicken and bacon! To serve up THAT at a cost of £8! Aware of our feelings, it was clear that our table was avoided ... In summary? A bad day? Perhaps but the cost of mediocre food and service is prohibitive. Remember, we were not alone in our experience.

Great food and atmosphere. When they say they are dog friendly they really mean it, bowl of water and a cup of treats! Still nice, a few items off the menu but that was just bad luck on our part.

Visited 15th July.. utter disappointment Service was terrible, the person who served us didn’t put the order in, nothing was coming.. I asked her and blankly was told I never ordered anything, she asked to see my receipt, I showed on my banking app I paid £20 to be told she never served us despite being the only people in the cafe to have come in. Eventually the manager comes over, we explain. He apologies gets the order. However I had protest when he explains a Turkey panini will be 10.95.. not value for money at all, he did refunds for the difference of a normal panini but even at 7:95 it was expensive. I had an empire biscuit it was too soft and crumbled to bits and was too sweet. We were not greeted even with a hello when we arrived. The server looked bored, wasn’t listening clearly and didn’t even bother to order and proceeded to deny serving us to our faces. We did not enjoy the experience at all and should have gone to the one further up but we gave this one a go. Understand mistakes are made but to deny serving and argue I didn’t order and ask for my receipt I can only hope it’s a one of and not a regular occurrence.

We visited the bridge cafe for a random stop off. We were well attended to by Jenny and her staff. Professional and courteous even in the face of un ending criticism from my darling mother in law. The lack of maple syrup was made good through copious lashings of ice cream and good humour! If we ever happen to be back in town we will be sure to call again……if we are allowed back in

Absolutely awful! £50 for baguettes and soup for 4. Extremely over priced. It’s actually cheaper to eat at balmoral castle!

The costumer service was beyond any expectations. People were friend a d helpful at all time. The food was delicious and the had some special outside the usual cafe food. The price was also excellent… Honesly speaking, I will be back pretty soon …

So stelle ich ,ihr ein kleines Café/Teehaus vor. Klein, schön, gemütlich eingerichtet, Blumen an den Fenstern und auf den Tischen, total herzig, sagen wir in der Schweiz. 😍 leckeren Tee, Crêpes und Milchshake, alles zu empfehlen. freundliches Personal, die alles frisch zubereiten, ein kleines Juwel im Herzen von Stirling.

Lovely place , clean and efficient and actually have a sign at the door telling you to order at the counter! Well organised, lovely menu and dog friendly.

We came to the bridge house for lunch. Both had Panini’s and coffee. Very good coffee. The cafe is fig friendly and the staff friendly. I made a mistake and put salt in my coffee , even though I offered to pay for another cup the owner wouldn’t hear of it and sent over a replacement. Thank you for your kindness

Amazing food, very tasty, great value. Lovely friendly staff. Good atmosphere. Had a lovely fresh strawberry tart🍓 & coffee ☕️

Cafe clean good choice of food and drinks, a bit expensive for what you get.

I got the tuna mayo and cream of tomato soup with an americano. Food was good. Service was superb and the place was clean and enjoyable. Servers were very caring and warm. I had a great time. Thanks for your kindness.

Stopped for a light lunch and a latte. The coffee was great, the flat bread sandwich was delicious, it came with a fresh salad and tortilla chips, very generous serving, it actually can feed 2 people, staff very friendly. The shop is not really on the main square so people can miss it, this cafe is definitely worth visiting, no loud music etc, table arranged within good distance. The sandwich was very fresh and so was the salad, unlike some places where you get a pinch of some withered salad. Keep up the good food and service Bridge House Cafe and may you long prosper. The food was worth the money.

Very disappointing! Must be a change of owners! They must be new to catering! We have visited here before, and have always been happy with the food and service. Today however it was like a very bad comedy show. We ordered soups, cappuccinos and water. The coffees come immediately and had to be drunk before going cold. 15 minutes later I went up to ask about the soups and was told they were sending items out in order. 2/3 minutes later the soups appeared. Bland, almost flavourless with cold stodgy pieces of baguette. We won’t make the mistake of visiting this place again!!

Great place for lunch, soups, panini's, salad bowls etc. You can take your dog which is great for me as a dog owner. There is a gallery and art shop, it has some great local/Scottish art and crafts for sale. Coffee is good and they have a good selection of sweet treats

Second time back and somewhat frosty reception from the staff. Having been for vegan cakes before, weren't any available when we visited. Ordered a oat mocha (great!) and oat cappuccino but the cappuccino was tiny - more like london flat white size, if that. Might try a different cafe in Ballater next time

Lovely atmosphere, kind staff, delicious food. Well recommended.

My fiancé and I found ourselves in Ballatar today, chilled by the cold wintery weather and hungry for some warming food and a welcoming atmosphere. Realising we'd stopped right outside the Bridge House Cafe, in we went. They evidently have a great host of offerings - the plates in front of other diners dealt me food-envy before we reached the counter. After a lot of belly-rumbling angst simplicity won the day. A haggis, cheese and chutney toastie for me and a coronation chicken toastie for my partner...we both had (excellent!) homemade tomato soup on the side...plus another classic cheese and ham toastie to share. All was top-notch but I'll give special recommendation for the haggis toastie. Really hit the spot and, clearly, high quality haggis. Coffees were also pretty perfect (we had a latte and a flat white) and there's a heap of non-dairy milk options, too. Will definitely be back. A few hours have passed so I'm getting hungry again...!

Lovely food and friendly staff would definitely recommend

A little gem in Ballater, the food was excellent and the staff were very endearing and kind. I asked to buy some extra bread for the soup and they insisted there was no charge. The surroundings are really well done with a farmhouse kitchen chic thing going on. There is also a really nice shop attached. We will definitely be back.

Quick stop for a cuppa , Turkish Delight Hot Chocolate came recommended Absolute heaven in Jar ( served in mason jar) with cream of course !! Deliciously chocolatey and tasted just like a turkish delight chocolate bar So if you are visiting soon don't forget...

Great cafe, amazing food would highly Recommend the Turkish delight hot chocolate, friendly staff and amazing customer service

It is vey handy that this cafe is dog friendly. It even has two or three products for dogs to eat ( chicken pancake, ice cream etc). The menu is a bit limited. It could do with some more options. The side salad is by made of a variety of green leaves, coleslaw and something similar to a cold ratatouille. Sorry to say that this kinda cold ratatouille has aubergines which are too hard to eat as in not well cooked. That’s a no. Everything else is good.

Lovely cafe in the heart of the village, served up a lovely bridge house breakfast quiche on the specials. Really enjoyed the mixed flavours throughout, will definitely return when we next visit

Lovely food, great coffee, and a superb location ... And best of all, your doggo is welcome

Not the first time we have been here but rest assured it was the last!! Waited 20 + mins for a latte and a mocha (which arrived a further 5 mins later! and after that long wait the drinks were like warm! Self service for...

Not as good as it used to be unfortunately. We always go here for brunch when visiting but this time (2023) then menu has changed, there are less brunch options, all the sweet options have gone and the full breakfast it smaller and a bit less interesting than previous visits. It was nice enough, just not as good as it used to be food wise. Coffee and hot chocolate were nice though. Overall still a good cafe but we miss the old menu and table service.

Good soup and nice, warm cafe. My main issue was the cakes on display looked very dry. I had a blondie which was dry. They also didn't have salmon, tuna or cheese, which cuts down the menu options quite a lot.

Gift shop is excellent. The cafe is... Very average. The staff genuinely made us feel like we were intruding at about 1pm.

A great little cafe in the centre of Ballater. Very friendly staff. Delicious food. We absolutely will come again next time we are passing through...

Lovely warm feeling as you enter as a result of decor and lighting. Food was as you might expect although staff were very accommodating as we asked for something not entirely on the menu.

Just ordered a bacon, brie and cranberry panini. There was ONE slice of bacon in the whole panini and hardly any brie. Absolutely disgusting considering the prices they charge for their food! Avoid this place.

Initially thought this was a tourist trap. Inside I found helpful staff and the basic food request was served with interesting salad and garnish. Which became a meal rather than a snack. I wonder if any of the royal family visited here!

Superb coffee. Great place for a quick bite to eat.

I'm a coeliac. A what? Listening skills to be improved. Ordered soup of the day, potato and leek, got lentil. Whilst they had gluten free bread it was rank. There's loads of options for people who have coeliac disease just takes a bit of effort....

Visited just after 3.30 on Thursday afternoon. There were only 4 other tables occupied and 3 staff members working front of house. Yet it took 22 minutes from taking the order (1 Americano and 1 mocha) to delivering them to the table. Even in the...

Absolutely lovely lunch. Quiche was brilliant. Very busy (always a good sign), but the staff were first class. Would definitely recommend.

So sad to leave a bad review as myself and my family used to absolutely love this place! We ordered a Full cooked breakfast & a tomato soup with a panini. We asked for the breakfast without beans and it came ( after waiting a very long time ) and was smothered in beans, I ordered a tomato soup but was given a potato and leek, Soup was then changed over and honestly the soup wasn’t great really lacked flavour. Staff were rude apart from the man who served us at the till who seemed to be the owner, not sure? Menu was very very limited compared to last year which is disappointing as the menu used to be amazing!! One of the members of staff actually took our dogs water bowl and gave it to another table without asking which we felt was incredibly rude. Also very overpriced for what we received, i don’t generally leave reviews but i really hope you take it as constructive criticism as we used to absolutely love this place and would come for breakfast / lunch everytime we stay in ballater! Hopefully you can get this sorted and we would love to pay a visit on our next trip up to ballater!

The staff (who were little more than children) didn't know what a regular coffee was. I had to break down the process of putting some coffee in a cup and putting some milk in a separate jug. On top of the coffee, we had tea for two and a plain scone which came to nearly £12. Watching a young lad shuffling across the floor with trays of food and drink slopping over the tray was reminiscent of Mrs Overall from Acorn Antiques. I'm sure that the staff would be more than capable if someone bothered to train them the basics. It's a shame that because it's Ballater, some businesses think they get a free pass to run their business poorly.

Great food but we didn't like the coffee. Very bitter.

Probably the worst cooked breakfast we have ever had ? Luke warm- eneamic toast - no beans - no mushroom - cost was over a tenner ! If your going to cook a meal - put your heart and soul into it - otherwise don’t...

Absolutely shocking prices! Customer service not that great either, no menus as limited food and drink available due to waiting on a delivery. Ordered 2 bacon rolls, 1 egg and 1 sausage, 2 teas, 2 coffees. £32.80. And no tomato or brown sauce available either. Definitely won’t be back at those prices😱 absolutely ridiculous!! Not surprised the review tab is gone.

£7.50 for a cheese and tomato filled croissant is ridiculous. A few pounds more and I could have had a cooked full Scottish breakfast.

Large well presented portions, but no flexibility, tuna available in sandwiches, but not on baked potato

A cosy cafe with very nice gluten free chocolate tart, decent coffee, and a surprise gift shop next door!

Having fought successfully through Covid with friendly staff in medical grade PPE, they have changed their menu and format. Gone are the lovely burgers, pancakes, waffles, milkshakes, sundaes etc. along with the friendly staff taking orders at tables. Now there is just a counter at the back where you order from the limited menu. Staff said it was not under new ownership but they had just made changes. We tried the chicken bacon Caesar wraps with salad and tortilla crisps but were very disappointed. Wraps themselves were OK but not sure what they had put on the salad. Seemed like a little lettuce with a lot of potato salad and what suspect might have been Couscous but it was not on the menu. We didn’t like whatever it was. Whilst we were not affected, there was no information regarding allergies. Food was brought to table but whilst they were not busy, nobody came back to ask if everything was OK. With just Cokes to drink, £35 for three people did not seem great value either and we won’t be returning to what used to be one of our favourite restaurants

A very friendly place with good quality food well presented and served in a very friendly atmosphere.

The food we got was pretty nice and most of us enjoyed what we got, however they got one of our orders wrong and the soup wasn't very nice considering the high price point. Two of us had smoothies which were very nice but quote...

Great place for a snack and coffee

Great place to sit and chill, it has the usual cafe fare, there are plenty of tables without it feeling cramped there is a shop next door (accessible through the cafe without going outside) which stocks a miriad of products, some great gifts to take home. Toilets are available to the rear of the shop. The servers were polite, prompt and well presented.

I enjoyed the food that i got.. I was stunned at the price however. We ordered the following; 3 rolls and sausage (two with potato scone) 3 teas It cost us just over £27.. Absolutley shocking prices for something so simple. When I was in they had ran out of sausage after 11.30am for other customers. The two of them just left. In hindsight I wish I had done the same. I could of went to another local cafe that had reasonable prices.

Lovely place. Cosy. Reasonably priced. Perfect portions and most importantly, phenomenal food. This was clearly the best food we had during our 6 day holiday in Scotland. The taste is just perfect, no matter what you order. Our group of 8, including elderlies and kids, were all equally satisfied and happy with the food, ambience and service at this place. The staff is ever smiling and accomodated our preferences. We ordered the following and everything was just yum yum.. Mushroom soup Parsnip soup Mushroom and cheese toastie Falafel sandwich Chicken coronation sandwich Nutella croissant Onion and tomato quiche Falafel bowl

The place looked lovely, but their hours changed. They are now open 10-4:30 Friday - Sunday.

What a shame. Travelled 65 miles to get breakfast as I loved the last time I was there. What a waste.

Had 2 light lunches. Great food, coffee and service. Well spaced tables and dog friendly. We'd enjoyed eating here once before and are likely to return.

Excellent coffee and cake and dog friendly. Smiling staff, good menu, will go again.

Very friendly coffee house. Excellent service and food . Have a little shop next door . We'll worth a look .

Great place for coffee in Ballater.

Lovely place. Good service, clean and cheerful 😊

We were passing through Ballater and fancied a spot of lunch. The window display enticed us in, it has such a homely feel to it and the staff were very friendly. I enjoyed a tuna and cheese toastie with homemade soup. So comforting and tasty!...

I visited the cafe with family for breakfast. My cooked Scottish breakfast was probably the best I've had in many years. Carefully wrought scrambled eggs, butchers square sausage, the tattie scones tasted home made. The haggis and blackpudding were astounding, and all washed down with...

Visited here as we went into the shop next to it and the cafe looked lovely inside. Took a while to get all of our drinks but can appreciate there were 6 of us.. Ordered a smoothie bowl which was very disappointing. The texture was...

Delicious food and drinks and a cozy atmosphere, especially when the fire is on.

Disappointed with our recent visit. Waited about 15 minutes outside for a table as the menu looked great. Cafe looks lovely, decor nice and it was clean. Unfortunately service wasn't particularly great or friendly, 2 meals came out then it was another 5/10 minutes until...

The Scottish hospitality industry is not noted for its customer service or friendliness. The norm is to treat customers with contempt. This place breaks that mould.

Had the best Scottish breakfast here and gorgeous pancakes! Lovely interior, good food and we were served quickly. Really lovely place would definitely return.

Lovely quiet cafe in the middle of Ballater. Visited for brunch and we both enjoyed a Scottish breakfast - which was cooked perfectly, and we greedily shared pancakes on the side (using pancake week as an excuse!). Fast service and friendly faces. Really enjoyed our...

Much needed place for light lunch in Ballater, good food and staff
