Fittie Bar in Aberdeen City

I was only here on business and I had saw the owner Mandy Miller, take a much younger girl by the throat for no reason, then proceeded to pull on the girls hair, not something I was expecting to see from a 5 star reviewed establishment and somewhere that is supposedly highly recommended. This is not somewhere I would want to take any of my business for so much as even a coffee, and for any future business I have I will not be going there and I will be pointing everyone I know to elsewhere as well. I would highly Not recommend this establishment.

Estábamos en Aberdeen por los 50 años de mi hija y habíamos estado en la playa para ver los fuegos artificiales, yo, mis dos hijas y nieta nos detuvimos en el camino de regreso al Hotel Leonardo en el Fittie Bar. Tan pronto como entramos el personal era tan acogedor, que nos mostró a través de la zona trasera a una mesa libre, viniendo a tomar nuestro pedido en la mesa, diciendo a mi nieta de 23 años de edad la máquina de discos era gratis si quería seleccionar algo de música, dándonos tiros gratis y organizar un taxi para nosotros, increíble servicio, gracias!

food cold ,threw most of it out.

mince was actually disgusting, was mostly oil and stringy beef actually foul

Asked for irn bru and got coke, never got garlic bread with my macaroni cheese (which I didn’t eat as it was so stodgy) and the old school sponge cake was not old school sponge it seemed to have jam and coconut on it meaning I never ate it…

Food was really good, thank you

Hoy fuimos al footie bar después de escuchar buenos informes sobre la comida Estaba allí con mi esposa e hijo adulto. Teníamos el eglefino y patatas fritas con guisantes de jardín. Tomó un poco de tiempo, así que pedimos refrescos mientras esperábamos que la sirvienta era una dama extranjera y era muy buena en su trabajo. Cuando llegó la comida pensé que se veía un poco de color pálido en comparación con la masa dorada habitual que obtenemos en Aberdeen. Pero como ni mi esposa ni mi hijo dijeron nada, pensé que tal vez era solo yo siendo exigente, el pescado estaba muy fresco, literalmente cayendo a pedazos por el tenedor, lo que hizo que fuera muy difícil de comer, ya que no podía comer simplemente como normal, pero cuando ha sido mejor con una cuchara. La razón de esto fue que la batería estaba muy empapada y tan grasienta/aceitosa que tuve que usar mi servilleta para tratar de absorber el líquido aceitoso ¿Cuando la sirvienta vino y preguntó si todo estaba bien? Nunca dije nada, pero los otros dijeron que sí estaba bien, así que pensé que sí, soy yo siendo exigente. Así que después de pagar y volver al coche, ambos se volvieron hacia mí y me dijeron que era horrible que el pescado no estuviera sazonado y que el suyo también estuviera nadando en grasa o aceite. Fue un poco decepcionante ya que un encantador eglefino se cocinaron tan mal Todo lo demás fue bueno aparte de no conseguir los guisantes del jardín que ni siquiera noté hasta escribir esto. lo único que dejó de ser una estrella fue la muy buena camarera / camarera

I was able to enjoy a cool, freshly tapped beer in the Fittie Bar to bridge the waiting time back to the cruise ship. Service and price performance were good.

According to website and the sign outside it was supposed to be open, but was closed

There was nothing left to eat around 7 p.m. Then they moved on again.

Charming little pub on the harbor, friendly staff and customers.

Great service and a very unusual menu. I very much enjoyed my main dish.

Enjoyable afternoon, atmosphere was great, staff very attentive and friendly 😀

Needed the microwave as it was cold. Was first told 18.50/19.10 pm finally arrived at 19.44. Not usual Fittie Bar service, they usually very good.

Brilliant place great atmosphere staff excellent

Lovely food fish was delicious friendly staff nice old pub

Fantástico pescado con patatas fritas £ 12. 95 . Plato enorme lleno. Realmente disfrutado y realmente recomiendo. Mis amigos tenían a Scampi y el picadillo, Tattie y Skirley. Ninguna queja.

Absolute insider tip...!!!! You have to experience the landlady alone...

this place isn't good using old food,steak is nearly off,no gravy,old chips that have been reheated,absolutely horrible never again will I be back at this place

Rarely give reviews but feel I have to this time. Just stopped for a pint and didn’t have a lot of time.Staff on duty did not seem happy and sorry to say they were pretty rude e.g. stare at you in the face and don’t say a word when you bring back your empties and say thanks after your one pint that you’ve downed to quickly because the staff are getting angry with each other and the job. May not have been a typical afternoon but it was our experience.

Gran comida y personal muy amable. He estado aquí un par de veces y nunca deja de impresionarme. Siempre garantizó una cálida bienvenida amable y buenas bromas.

A bit out of the way but we had a lovely meal and would certainly go back.

Despite only dropping in for a drink, would strongly advise having lunch or dinner here if required. Menu looked good but the key is the atmosphere. The staff were excellent and the place has so much character. A must when in Aberdeen.

So eine nette Überraschung mitten im Hafen von Aberdeen! Personal und Stammkundschaft freundlich und aufgeschlossen mit vielen Tipps für die Umgebung und das Essen sah auch super aus!

Lovely lunch with my Sis, a regular for us 😊

Was really disappointed this time with my order, food was all spilled out of the paper container into the plastic carrier bag, it was cold too.

Order was missing garlic bread and salad that is advertised as coming with macaroni cheese. Odd things to forget given they come as standard. Not great paying for food not received. Otherwise food was good.

Ordered mushroom starter,however my second last mushroom was scampi! Told waitress who was actually very nice-All she said was “ oh how random” and went off to the kitchen to find out why.so during main course had to why that had happened to be told “the scampi must came out of the bag!”Now l didn’t expect any money to be off the bill as let’s face it l did eat all the mushrooms but an apology would have been quite nice. Good job lm not a vegetarian!

We have ate in at the Fittie Bar a few timed and have always been impressed. Unfortunately this was not the case with our delivery order. No salad or garlic bread with the mac & cheese as it states on the menu. The home made steak pie would ha e been good apart from the many pieces of steak that had burnt bits on it. We had ordered prawn cocktail but as it was in with the hot food it was hot. The chicken fillets, chips and coleslaw was great though.

Absolutely my taste. Funny beer taps

We found the bar by chance. Practically in the middle of the harbor area. A conscious path to get there is worthwhile. Google helps. Super nice staff and very good food at a good price. Atmosphere very homely and mostly visited by locals. Addendum: I ate fish and chips 6 or 7 times in 14 days in Scotland. Here it was breaded and it was the best of all. Above all, enough tartar sauce.

Best local bar in Aberdeen. Terrific atmosphere and very friendly staff and locals.

A typical Scottish pub, with a very nice atmosphere and friendly staff. The haggis are delicious (it was my first experience)!

What a surprise this was, had the macaroni and homemade foccacia!! Best foccacia ever, this place is tucked away but what a find, dont often get to eat out but will definately use it for a take out, beats everything else around by far.

Great wee pub, really liked the atmosphere

Best bar food in Aberdeen. Huge portions for price, cooked fresh & hot, and different specials every day is great too. ĪFriendly staff and relaxed atmosphere.

Very beautiful period frontage, we love

A quirky (very) old pub which I can understand wouldn't be to everyone's taste, but we thoroughly enjoyed our visit and the food was among the best we've had in any Aberdeen pub for a good few years. Bring an appetite with you… we definitely will on next visit 👍👍

Great bar in Aberdeen with cozy ambience and good service. Went for lunch before ending our visit. Fish and chips is authentic and tasty. Curry rice was ok, supposed to come with a papadom however due to short staffed it wasn't served. We were compensated with free beer which I thought was definitely awesome and responsible!

One of the best takeaways we’ve had in a long time, was quick, still very hot, portion size amazing! And tastes very good, would definitely recommend!

Wow 🤩….food was amazing & portion size was fantastic!! Will definitely be a regular customer!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lovely tasting food, fast delivery, big portions, was hot

Was kept updated regularly when driver left, when he was near. Food was delicious and it was hot, only small issue there was no coleslaw with my chicken fillets like it says on the menu. I would deffo order again from here. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great food! Fresh and arrived hot!!

Chips and garlic bread were really good. Pasta in the mac n cheese was pretty overcooked and stodgy and the sauce was bland and grainy. I would however come back and try something else as I believe in supporting local rather than bigger chains x

I highly recommend, tasty, fresh and well-presented dishes

Delivery kept being updated. First night bound to be busy so understandable. Excellent door hot when delivered. Definitely order again.

Really nice traditional bar, with excellent home cooked food. Service was friendly and quick. Dog friendly pub too! 😀

Thoroughly enjoyed our first visit. Will definitely be back

It was very cold inside food took a very long time to come out an hour for our starters a further half hour for mains and food was not very hot but food was very tasty when it did eventually come out

Good Service is, of the don't Hit you. Funny guys, everythings is fine. Good pub Good food

Thanks to Mandy and staff for a superb Christmas meal last night. Everything was spot on!

Ein sehr alter Pub am Hafen etwas abseits der City. Absolut einheimisch da kommen die Hafenarbeiter mit ihren Arbeitskleidung rein trinken ein Bier und Whisky und gehen wieder...Die Speisekarte klein und einfach . Wir hatten dort gegessen ist wie bei "Muttern"und war total super lecker. Das Ambiente so wie man sich ein Hafenpub vorstellt mit vielen Fotos, das Personal absolut freundlich. Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Abend dor.

Excellent food. And a warm welcome..

Fantastic time and they had NA beer.

This is one of our favourite places to eat in Aberdeen. After a walk along the promenade and through the old village of Footdee (locally known as Fittie), there is nothing finer than to stop off at Fittie Bar for a glass of something nice and lunch. The food is consistently excellent and the banter from the proprietor creates a great atmosphere.

Went today for the first time after hearing so many good things and never disappointed. Great old fashioned pub food cooked fresh .service was good too . Will definitely be back .

The last time I visited the Fittie Bar was in 1997 whilst working for Halliburton which also still has a facility near the bar. It’s lost none of its quirkiness and has numerous artefacts relating to those of us who work at sea. Bar staff and locals were all very welcoming some of whom probably socialised there the previous time I enjoyed the atmosphere of the Fittie Bar. Look forward to coming into port in the near future and visiting once again. Braw Aye

Amazing little bar with really friendly staff. 10/10 for me.

Great bevs, great staff, lovely atmosphere. Will be back.

Had a lovely meal with my wife and daughter. Had a little bit of a wait but was well worth it. Very pleasant staff will be back again.

Hidden gem , beautiful pint , home made tasty food and great service… try for yourself you won’t be disappointed 👍🏻

Nice local bar with simple yet good bar food!

Food and service was perfect as usual 👌 😋

Little gem of a place. Bar staff very friendly and welcoming, food was excellent. The fish and chips portion was huge!!. Highly recommended.

Food was amazing best fish and chips I've had in years massive portions good value for money

Small place but great atmosphere. Very friendly people. Small local pub with karaoke!

What a cracking little bar had a great night here couple of weeks ago host was very pleasant and good sense of humour beer well chilled and food was amazing for the price will 100% be back next time I'm in Aberdeen 👍

👍🏻Venue: A friendly locals’ pub set in the heart of a traditional fishing village on the outskirts of Aberdeen. 🍻Food & Drink: Good selection on draught and bottled, and although we didn’t eat here, the food looked excellent. 🥸Clientele: Mainly a friendly bunch of locals. Children are welcome. 🌟Summary: This is definitely a pub to visit if you are in Aberdeen. It’s only a 10 minute walk from the centre, and worth it

Closed at 8:30pm on July 10th. Hours say open until midnight. Group of 14. We went elsewhere. We won't be back.

Hidden gem of place to eat and drink. One of the best fish and chips I had in Scotland. We also ordered scampi, soup and sandwiches. All come in generous portions. Cozy atmosphere with very friendly host! Will wanna return whenever I return to Aberdeen!

Great wee traditional pub nice pint food looked great too

Had a meal here with friends. The staff were really friendly the atmosphere was great. The meals were perfect as was the beer. The dogs were made welcome too.

Great atmosphere and lovely staff! Food was great!

Love the authentic cozy feeling in the pub. We were welcomed like we knew the staff for several years already. One beer turned into plenty, loads of fun and laughter. Amazing food. Absolutely coming back to Aberdeen and to this Pub. You made our stay in Aberdeen superb❤️🍷

Informeel, goede prijs kwaliteit

Beat fish and chips we’ve ever had. Saw another review say this was the whitest piece of fish they’ve seen and I have to say that’s true. Quaint little bar to top notch service. Would highly recommend if you stopping for lunch in Aberdeen.

Good food 😋 great atmosphere looks like a old man pub out side 😀 but in side spot on 🍻😋

The food was lovely, staff very attentive. Mandy and staff did my hubby's memorial day good xx..

Friendliest staff I've ever met in a pub,service was exceptional,food was great home cooked. Very very pet friendly, gave our dog food as well. Highly recommended.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🐕🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🐕🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Really good place to visit, very friendly, good food

If you're in the fittie of Aberdeen area and looking for a authentic Scottish experience, you'll find one here! Pubs like this used to be common, some would argue pillars of our communities. Great to see one still functioning.

Celebrated my bday with my family there! Délicious food, honest prices and great atmosphere. The girls did everything in their power to make us feel comfortable. It was a lovely evening. Thank you very much

Took.some friends to visit this iconic bar. Excellent food generous helping. Two children in the party who were well catered for by the waitress she was excellent. If you haven't visited I urge you to go.

Comfy place in unexpected region.

Fantastic meal and plenty of it

First class service and meal was lovely

Great bar , fabulous atmosphere

Fittie Bar is brilliant, staff are fantastic and you always get a warm welcome and a laugh. I was told the beer is very good as well..:)

Proper little dockside pub full of people that work in the O&G industry first time ive been in and its been there for years! Nice pint on tenant's aswel and serve food but i was in about 8/9pm.

Had a Christmas meal with my colleagues on Friday night at the Fittie Bar,excellent food and excellent service from the staff.Well done to all concerned!!

In for Christmas tea and bingo night, can only say " BRILLIANT " had a super meal with really friendly staff, Catherine- thank you. We were a party of 4 who had a great night out for Christmas. Many thanks to you all.

Lovely little local bar with friendly helpful staff

Mandy was so nice, the second oldest Pub

Friendly staff. Great atmosphere Food excellent. Had fish and chips. The whitest fish I've ever had. Think it must have been swimming around in the sea an hour before Very reasonable priced. Will be back x

Lovely place food good and Mandy is a wonderful person ,nothing is too much bother.

We found this place when we were wandering around the docks. Stopped in for a pint and had such a warm welcome from the lady behind the bar. We went back a couple of days later for some of the best fish and chips ever. And the locals in the bar were so friendly to us Americans! Get off the tourist route and have a good beer and fish!

Good pub meal at a good price.Nice local friendly pub😀maybe a bit hidden in back street but well worth the effort. Interesting Old fishing community worth a look only a short walk away .The pub is named after this community (fittie).

Food was excellent quality and portions were generous. Real good price. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming to everyone that came through the door. Fully recommend this little gen in Aberdeen
