Flora's Shop & Restaurant in Aberdeenshire

Popped in one morning for a beverage with a friend. Flora's is situated on the road between Westhill and Banchory so it is sort of out of the way but a lovely tearoom with a nice ambiance. There is a small shop with a range of handmade gifts and crafts. There was a good selection of tray bakes and scones and we were served by a friendly welcoming server. The restaurant and toilets were clean. Overall a relaxing place to have morning tea or coffee.

Flora’s have just started doing afternoon tea and it is amazing. They’ve always done delicious tray bakes and cakes so I knew this would be good and it exceeded expectations. I think you have to book the following day and let them know the sandwiches you want. Absolutely flawless - the sandwiches were very good, cakes divine and service was excellent. Great value for money £16.50. This surpasses many afternoon teas I have had in the past. Can’t say enough good things, I would go back again and again.

We nipped in past for a quick lunch, unfortunately we found the pricing on the board wasn't that clear, for example you pay an extra £2 for salad and crisps with a sandwich...for me that's too much. Even though we felt it was overpriced the food was ok, however even though I pass here every week I wont be rushing back.

I came here Friday lunchtime. The service was good. The food was delicious. The price was £4.90 for soup. It’s located on the back road between Westhill and Banchory… ideal for a stop if you’re on the road driving/cycling. I would highly recommend.

The food here is great, it’s such a nice little place to come to. We had the loveliest server Fin, very friendly and welcoming, made our visit even better Thank you Floras!

We love to stop here for lunch or coffee and cake when out on our bikes. A real find as the food is top quality with the best sausage rolls in the area. The cakes are delicious too. There is always a friendly welcome and great service.

Have started coming back here since the lock down obvious missed Doreen and family but the lovely girl who here now is so helpful and as my mum is infirm she always takes our nice food and drink out to he car for us the food is delicious and still being made so welcome.

Second time I’ve been to Floras this month during bike ride.. Great choice of toasties and paninis. Home bakes and sausage rolls delicious. Really friendly staff and toilet spotless. Will definitely be a regular stop now!

Flora's was once a cyclists stop of choice. Great selection of cakes, big menu served all day. NO LONGER THE CASE. Food service stops strictly at 2:30. A matter of clock watching rather than customer service and availability of staff. Another customer was served their 'meal' as we arrived. I say meal but toasty barely counts as a cooked meal in my book. A real disappointing experience. Can't see it lasting- the old one was here for ever.

I've been a regular visitor to Flora's with my mum over the years who lived locally and we always enjoyed their Scottish dishes available from their menu. Their dishes are both tasty and having good portion size.

Visited here many a time and had a family pre xmas get together in December where we were all fed and watered to our pleasing . Support / use Floras to keep this quaint stop off, providing the service with a smile from an extensive menu . Keep up the good work Floras.

Stopped here for a late bite to eat. Not the friendliest of places. Had soup and a toastie but the soup was to salty and had to return it. Didn't seem to pleased when we said what was wrong with it. Asked for a glass of water and was charged 30pence. Soup and toastie was over £11 bit over priced. Used to be a busy cafe but only another of couple of people in.

Visited Floras for the first time yesterday to have a catch up coffee with a friend. Disappointed that only tea or filter coffee is offered - no latte, cappuccino or decaf. Selection of scones, tray bakes and cakes available - which were all OK. Felt a bit like a cross between a transport cafe and your grannies dining room with lots of nick nacks on shelves. Staff were pleasant. Been but won’t be going back.

Overpriced and disappointing! Ping ping food and at £10 or more a go! Quite dismal and dreary atmosphere in cafe although staff quite friendly. But food reheated from frozen and really pasta doesn't do well reheated... soapy. If the meals had been around a fiver and the place had been less dull and dreary I might have been more forgiving but no I won't return. Too dear and food reheated from frozen. Sorry folks, I will move on down the road for fresher food and better surroundings!😃

Fantastic fresh food. Friendly staff and very welcoming. A very good selection on the menu and delicious array of biscuits and cakes on offer.

Stopped by for breakfast wasn’t my cup of tea. Everything seemed deep fried. However the cakes looked amazing. I will stop by for lunch as the menu looked appealing. Was during the weeks and was very quiet. however always looks busy when I pass.

Myself and my family have tried to support this local business over the years as the food is very good and reasonably priced. Therefore very disappointed today by the service I received today from the male server. I ordered a take out of 2 rolls...

Lovely friendly welcome. The service was excellent and the food was delicious! We all had salads as it was a hot day outside and they excelled our expectations. My mother had a smaller sized portion and she still didn't manage to finish it all! We...

I have driven past Flora's many times on the way from Garlogie to Banchory and have always been tempted to visit. Visited last week for the first time and I was very disappointing. This place is run down and looking very sorry for itself. You...

We stopped for a cup of tea and cake on our way to Banchory, to give this cafe another chance, after feeling unwelcome by the staff a few years ago. As it was our first visit here we werent sure where to go or to...

We have been here a few times recently because the food is quite good, although portions of potatoes and chips are a bit small. The sevice is ok, and the atmosphere is ok as well. Overall not the best place around but quite good though.

This place is a little treasure tucked away in the country with a great vide and amazing food, wether you stop off for tea and scones or a full blown meal you will not be disappointed!

Decent home cooking at restaurant standard, main meals and puds. Most couples buying one pud for two people they were so large. Tray bakes and cakes for afternoon tea. Parking outside, some tables outside. Under £10 pound for main course and drink, under £5 for...
