Leisure centre in Aberdeenshire

Took an hour to be served our food, and when we did get it, chips were over cooked, the cajun chicken was so spicy we couldn't eat it, had very little chicken in it, mostly was sauce, was as hot as a madras, kids burger bun was burnt, not good. Won't be coming back.

We had a lovely Sunday lunch, carvery with 3 different meats to choose from and a good selection of vegetables, great atmosphere. Looking forward to our next visit.

Had a good family meal here. Good food and good service and really good value. The restaurant was really busy which shows that the owners are doing something right.

First time I’ve been to the leisure centre when a band was playing, very well organised and managed. They had a bar set up which was well manned to save crowds forming. Can’t wait to see who they have coming next!

Went here with our family for lunch on the 30 December and there was a restricted menu. That didn't matter as there was still good choices and we all really enjoyed our meal. The service was very good and the prices were very reasonable.

Plenty choice on the menu but we went on a Thursday so we got a fish deal. Great menues to choose from. Lovely food and the fish is cooked in various ways. Would recommend as they also hold tribute nights, weddings ans funerals or funeral teas when requeated. Plenty of parking and wheelchair access. There is a bowling ally next door to the Centre.

Been coming to the leisure centre for food for a number of years coming at least once a month. But the last few times I have gone it’s been disappointing. I went last night for the mate date night and ordered a burger and chips while my girlfriend ordered scampi and chips both were ok but the chips we encountered a number of chips which were still solid. This will make me think twice about coming back to the leisure centre for food. It has certainly gone down hill in the past few years.

We come here often and have to say the menu and food have improved a lot, service and food are well above average for lunch

Visited with friends recently. extensive menu Fish, meat, chicken and vegetarian dishes on offer. realistic prices and beautifully presented...Staff were welcoming and very helpful, able to describe different dishes on menu if required. ( half portions available ) Very satisfying experience.

Went for a Sunday lunch. Soup was offered as Scotch Broth.....full of barley more like a pudding......counted the tablespoons of soup 4 tablespoons for £3.95...it was disgusting The main was passable but swimming in gravy....I later found out that the centre had new management....I won't be going back there soon

Lovely selection of seafood dishes - haddock, lemon sole, seacat (wolffish) and prawns served in a variety of ways. We had four of the choices in our group and all were delicious and excellent value. Also a decent choice of desserts which we enjoyed.

My wife and I went here on a Thursday evening for the fish night and it was very good. There was a choice of six fish dishes - I had the sea bream and my wife had the langoustines. Incredible value at £6 each. The quality was really good. The service was first class. Will definitely return.

Went for Sunday lunch good variety on the menu Brie and cranberry wedges were excellent ended up ordering another portion.. The fish was just perfect had it bread crumbed just perfect!! Reasonable price also.

Went up to Fraserburgh for the day and went for a pensioners lunch at The Leisure Centre. So clean in the restaurent, plenty of seating and not too close together. Better to go to the right as quieter . Left is the bowling area. Lovely meal, piping hot and tasty, very friendly and helpful staff. Clean toilets snd car parking if required. We were on a bus away day,

Arranged a baby shower for Sunday 16th July for 20 people. We all had a lovely time, the staff had everything ready for us. We got into the room early to do some decorating etc. We had picked the afternoon tea that included sandwiches, sausage rolls, scones with cream and jam, and small cakes etc. We had loads of tea and coffee to go around and everything was delicious! The staff called me a few days before to confirm numbers etc and just check our arrangements and so on. All in all we had a good afternoon. Would recommend the place as we were well looked after.

Was in on Sunday food was cold and undercooked will not be returning would not recommended this place to none

Fuimos al centro de ocio para sus 1 pescado el jueves por la noche en la calle. El servicio era muy amable y rápido. Los dos campos de pescado por £12 es una ganga. Tuve la lubina, que era delicioso. Deseando ver qué hay en el menú de pescado para la próxima semana!

Nothing much to say, food was ok, nothing startling for what we paid, waitress was ok, could have put a smile on her face, restaurant in need of some decoration, no character about the place,

It had been years since I last dined here. We visited on mothers day, we couldn't get a table at our usual 'go to' restaurants so thought we would try the Leisure Centre for a change. Service was efficient and the waiting staff were very...

Bonito lugar para un almuerzo con amigos, el servicio era bueno y la comida de buena calidad, fácil aparcamiento exterior es una ventaja también.

My friend and I joined 3 pensioners for lunch. We all had fish but we wanted salad and veg rather...

Went here for a family meal...... The food was lovely and well worth the drive.... Everything well priced

Mi esposa y yo tomamos té aquí y nos encantó. Ambos tuvimos el abadejo craigewan y estuvo muy bien y no hubo ningún problema para cambiar el puré de patatas. El servicio era bueno y el personal era muy amable.

Great locally sourced food and comfortable surroundings. Bowling was cheap, £10 for 4 of us for an hour. Well worth a visit.

Restaurant staff need to spend more time working rather than talking about other peoples personal lives in public and spreading rumours as its unprofessional and bang out of order!

We had a very pleasant lunch here with attentive staff and authentic local food. I had the Cullen Skink, yummy.

Food is fresh and well prepared. Service is excellent and friendly. Dining room is comfortable and nicely decorated. Good value for money.

have visited the indoor bowling club many times this year and staff at centre always pleasant and polite, have eaten at Restaurant many times and meals been excellent, bar staff very pleasant and always smiling .

Took our daughter and 2 grandsons. A great experience. Aids for small children to place the ball and roll it. We had a lovely lunch and the kids loved it. Staff all helpful. A great experience for 3 generations.

06/12//15 Sunday.Went 3 of us carvery had no booking got table straight away.Had lovely broth starter nice n thick, with a hot bread butter.Carvery was excellant ,everything homemade nothing out of a packet.Impressed with the yorkshire pudding.Service excellant.Promt and quick no waitingI would highly recommendAt a good reasonable priceLeft a tip and walked out feeling happy and fullWill defo go back.

We ate in the bowling section and the 5 of us had lovely meals. The pizza was especially lovely and the stroganoff special was lovely.

I was here for a family meal on a Sunday teatime. The menu was limited due to Sunday carvery. I had chicken strips for a starter. These were very crispy, borderline burnt! I had carver for the main which was of average quality. The meat from the carver was very good though. We waited approx 15 minutes to have our order taken for pudding, and after 25 mins of waiting for tea or coffee, I had to request a staff member to provide the refreshments. Staff in the meantime were standing chatting to each other in an alcove near the kitchen. It's most likely that I will not visit here again.

Booked a table of 2 at 430 on a Friday evening and was surprised to get a table available at 5. Arrived to a queue of people already and we were one of four other tables. Drink order taken quickly and arrived then food order taken. I ordered the apple and black pudding starter and omgosh amazing! So so good and sweet. Good size too and my wife had the Brie wedges. Cranberry sauce was good. I ordered the haddock craigewan and wife ordered the jack Daniels chicken. Wife said the sauce was really good and the cheese. Chicken was also lovely and soft. I enjoyed mine but there was way too many prawns. I ordered the Eton mess and strawberry ice cream for dessert. It was tasty but the cream was far too thick and the meringue was crushed into teeny pieces so I couldn't taste it which was a real shame. Overall I'd visit again even just for that Apple starter! The decor reminded me of a care home though but still foods good and service is great

Senior specials at lunchtime offer a soup & sweet for £4.25 or choice of 3 main courses for £5. Very good value & quality.High tea was lovely & priced at £11.95.Children's menu was also available.Staff were friendly & aimed to please.

There are not a lot of options in the Fraserburgh area but the Leisure Centre has a broad menu and decent food at reasonable prices. It can accommodate small and large groups and has ample parking on site.

A good place if you like fish and chips, or want to take the kids for a burger. The food is reasonable with good sized portions, and the staff are very polite and friendly. While the menu is quite extensive for meat-eaters, vegetarians are limited to baked potatoes or sandwiches. There is one main meal vegetarian option, which always seem to be veggie korma. It is good value for a lot of people, but vegetarians might want to try somewhere that has a little more imagination in it's menu.

To start with it took about 5mins for us to get seated. When we did get served, we weren't informed of the specials for the day, we only noticed the board as we walked in by accident. The waitress did not seem to interested in us. When we got our drinks, there was no ice in them. When my food arrived, I had the lasagne, my friend ordered chips and a sandwich. My lasagne was burnt, clearly had been in a microwave, tasted bland, so I did not eat it. My friends chips did not arrive until after we had eaten our meal. Not at any point was I asked if my meal was fine until the end. When I did finally get to comment on it, the waitress tried to convince me to order something else. When we came to pay for our food, the waitress then (another one) just pointed to the cash register, rather than say what my bill was. I would not recommend people to go here for lunch, staff seem uninterested, and the food most clearly comes from a microwave.

My wife and I go there most Sundays for our Lunch and we have found it to be a good and friendly place to go.

Was there for a Sunday carvery with my friends and in my opinion it is the best carvery in the area! Great food, brilliant service and excellent food!

We went bowling and then decide to eat in the eat in the bowling area. I would say its the worst meal I have ever had. The burger buns were toasted until they were so crispy that they crumbled to pieces as soon as you picked them up. The burgers themselves were very dry and the special sauce was disgusting, it tasted off. My husband got about a dozen thin fries while my grandson got double the amount. Although we will go back to the bowling we certainly won't be eating here again.

Lovely bowling club and serious bowling to watch. meals served very promptly kind and thoughtful staff. Popular with locals

Have had meals here loads of times and usually very good, however went in for a high tea and it was awful. poor service, forgetful waitresses that had to be reminded to bring stuff eg not enough chips/veg for 3 people, amongst other stuff. Chips weren't properly cooked, Plate of fancies has diminished to 6 small squares of biscuit for 3 people. No scones/ pancakes.Portion sizes small in comparison of what you used to get. Will not be back, very disappointing. No wonder the place looked empty compared to what it usually was!!!

We went for Coffee after nature walk near ness river. The coffee, soup and snacks were really very good, tasty and worth a visit. Service was very good and prompt

amazing good staff and goood food everbude sud go there good bolling aswell the staff are frendly and helpfull

had a meal here on tuesday night, the food was 1st classservice was great ,will be back for sure,, delish

A bit of a let down compared to our last visit. The over priced high tea had very small portions and wasn't to the standard we have came to expect from this establishmentioned. There was limited fancies on a small plate. No pancakes, no scones no butter or jam. overall the mealing was fine but not as good as we expected

it is a good place to grab a reasonable priced well cooked lunch. Its in a leisure centre where you can view indoor bowling while you are waiting. Our group had fish and chips and Lasagne. The fish was large, very fresh and tasty and those with Lasagne had a old portion too. They do senior specials, which may account for the demographics of those there.Service was exceptionally quick and good too. It was pretty busy for a midweek lunch time and we would definitely return.

We have been a few times to the Sunday carvery, at lunchtime and early evening. This is very good vale for money at £12.50 for three courses plus tea/coffee. There is a choice of three meats at the carvery, typically beef, turkey and gammon. There is a wide choice of fresh vegetables, Yorkshire pudding, stuffing and gravy. The children's meals are also very good, especially the haddock goujons and chicken fillets.

After hearing good reports about the carvery we decided to go for it this evening- best decision of the weekend! Great food, fresh and hot, generous portions, pleasant staff and really good value for money. You need to go for your Sunday dinner, you will not be disappointed :)

after visiting the carvery on sunday i will deffinetly be going back as the service was brilliant and the food was amazing! the chicken soup was one of the best ive had in a long time, at a brilliant price of £12.50 for 3 course and you come out stuffed, thanks again to the staff there who are always smiling and hardworking, will deffinetly be back

this restaurant was good when last owners had it.since then it has went downhill.tonight meal was ok but i asked for apple crumble and waited 10 minutes nothing came.waitress apologised when she saw we were leaving and said she forgot to write it down.the toast we asked for before the meal, arrived after the meal after we asked for it.it was frozen toast toasted which waitress insisted it was fresh bread everyday and not frozen.it was bone hard.the high tea meal had gone up £2.05 since last year and we got less fancy pieces than usual.the fancy pieces were soft and chilled.felt like we got other peoples left overs for pieces.very poor service considering the amount of people in.we wont be back.

A lovely warm welcome from the staff on arrival.We opted for the high tea, which is real good value at £11,Everything was fresh cooked, with the breaded haddock tasting like it had just been delivered off the boat at Fraserburgh harbour.Good sized portions, along with your toast and tea. The big surprise was the cakes arriving, which were lovely.

We went as a family of 5 (all adults) for the Sunday carvery lunch. We got 3 courses, starter, choice of 3 meats for our main plus all the trimmings and a trio of desserts all for £12.95. Really great value for money and it was not cheap cuts of meat either. Would really recommend this. Its a shame they don't advertise this more as it really fantastic. I would advise to book ahead as it is very busy.

Good price for family ticket (2 adults 3 kids). Nice changing area, great showers and a fine pool. Separate toddlers pool. Main pool had the shallow end roped off for the kids to play on mats etc. Left the other part of the pool to enjoy. Flume kept them busy. Good sized Sauna and Steam room. Worth thinking about when on holiday.

My family and I always enjoy a trip to the lesuire centre.Whether it's the main restaurant or the diner at the 10-pin bowling.Food is always high-quality. The staff are quite young but I've always found them to be polite and helpful.Ideal for a afternoon out with the kids, romantic meal for two, or for a family celebration.

Fantastic fresh fish in the bowling alley, served with lovely chips and salad, everything very fresh, batter was melt in the mouth and amazing! a tad pricey at £9.50 a throw though, service and staff also excellent. we will certainly go back!

good paninins at the bowling alley which they will serve quickly.food is fine. only draw back sometimes no staff are available for bookings at bar and bowling alley.

was a lovely high tea. the rest. was lovely as were the waitresses being very attentive to all our questions. what I disliked is really quite petty - beware the crème brulee was cold. was like cold lumpy custard.

I enjoyed the food very much, my partner also enjoyed his sea food platter. Friendly staff and nice environment - will be returning in the future

Had lunch this week with a friend and it was lovely, I had lasagne followed by sticky toffee pudding and it was very nice, went with my partner for the valentine menu and was very pleased, we got a red rose which was a lovely extra touch, very nice set menu we thoroughly enjoyed our meal, great service as well.

Been here for a meal a few times now with friends and no complaintsCertainly recommend it to others

Good food at reasonable price staff friendly and helpful one of our favourite lunch time places. Eat there a couple of times in a month

my friends and i eat here a couple of times a month and the staff are so friendly, and helpful, nothing is too much trouble for them. the food is very good for price and there's plenty to choose from. we have visited with two small, energetic boys, and the staff are amazing suiting their needs too. we have also visited as four very chatty females who were allowed to sit as long as we wanted after our meal, not hurried out because the waitresses were wanting home. i would recommend making an evening of it with a meal and then pop through to visit the very friendly staff at the tenpin bowling alley for a quick game or two to work off the pudding!

When I went here with my family I was served good food but the food was cold and creasy but happy staff and a happy family will never go wrong

I attended the Leisure Centre in April with my girlfriend and her grandparents who live in the area.We ordered our drinks which were reasonable and I had a nice clean pint.On ordering we had some complimentary toast and butter which was good to nibble on while the food arrived very promptly. I had the stir fry beef, which was very much like crispy beef which you would get from a chinese takeaway. But with far better quality! It was very saucy and the beef was excellent. It is easy to go cheap with beef, however, the chewiness always shows through.The others had lasagne and steak and ale pie which all looked great!Good service, good food, good beer, and all very prompt. The bill came to 50quid for 4 meals and drinks. Ideal!

Everything was excellent, from the perfectly pleasant staff to the exceptional meal served. Fantastic value for money we had the 3 course carvery which was £12.50, an extremely low price for the food we received. The chef serving was a treat to behold and very pleasant to talk to and he was very generous with the cuts of meat too. I honestly couldn't fault a single thing. My table is booked for Mothering Sunday and I hope to receive the same amazing service and food then too. Well done to all!!

What a pity how this eatery has gone down hill - it was amongst the best eateries in the NE but over the past 9 months everything about this place has declined - used to serve one of the best Sea Food Platters in the NE but now its just edible again due to the poor quality batter

myself and a friend recently dined at the leisure centre on a Thursday evening. We had a high tea which had a great selection of "home-cooked" food. I had the chicken fillets which was a treat and my friend had a breaded haddock and said it was the best haddock she had eaten in a long time! Great! The restaurant was relatively busy and the service we received was of good standard. The waiting staff were very polite and attentive! After our meal we had coffee along with scones,pancakes and some home bakes which was great after having had a lovely meal! At only £10 each it was great value for money! Will definitely be returning!

Wasn't at all sure what to expect as any time I've eaten where tenpin bowling is the main feature, chicken nuggets and burgers have been the fare. On entering, the staff were immediately helpful and pleasant. They showed us to our seats which were arranged in long rows a bit like the cookhouse in my army days but I'm not saying it was an issue because it wasn't. Everything was clean and tidy. We ordered a bottle of Merlot, which for £10 was decent enough. None of us had starters but all had mains. My wife and I had seafood platters. The portions were large, the food was basic but tasty and no issues at all. Our two hosts had the lemon sole and chicken ecosse respectively. The lemon sole was actually 2 fish and decent ones at that! I'm not too sure about the chicken ecosse, it didn't do it for me but there were no complaints. We all had alcohol based coffees. The waitress wasn't sure how to make them but because she was honest about it and gave it a good go, it was fine. A nice calypso coffee for me and Tia Maria's for the others. We all went tenpin bowling under the same roof afterwards. No problems with the lanes, decent enough bar and music going all the time. I'd go back.

I have been to the Leisure centre on many occasions, visiting family in Fraserburgh 2 or 3 time a year. It's a favourit of my elderly mum, who likes the half portions of traditional grub.Las time there was on my birthday in August and my mum was keen to treat me.I ordered a surf n turf ... the most exensive dish on the menu!this is Aberdeenshire so the beef is the best in the country and this is Fraserburgh, the top fishing fleet in the country....I looked forward to my birthday treatHowever...Really scrawny sirloin ...very poor quality, worse than you get in any HarvesterAnd as for the "tail-on prawns"....they didnt have any so provided a separate dish of deep-fried "scampi".....nothing fresh about this...straight from the freezer and not the quality end!So, despite the potential of the best beef and the best seafood combined ...the result was VERY disappointing. C'mon Leisure Centre...you really can do better than this for £16Cant imagine any local fishermen or farmers would be impressed!

place was busy last night, food was served quickly considering restaurant was fully booked.staff were friendly.fish was slightly undercooked with batter and toffee was a bit sweet on pudding.food not as good as last owners chefs but overall good for a night out for entertainment and eating out venue

Yip nice meal had by all,seven in group and all had good meal ,even better I was not paying this time ,the young guns on the service are good ,polite ,very helpfull. Will be back

Went for meal in September to celebrate our anniversary . We were very disappointed with our meal.spoiled our evening. Wrote a message to manager on their Facebook page and they still haven't had the decency to reply to it. We won't be back.

Very well presented food followed by delicious scones and cakes at the High Tea Service.Crispy fish and chips, tasty steak pie and a delicious black pudding tower with apple rings. The homemade scones were scrumptious and the cakes pretty and tasty.Couthy service from a Broch loon and good value!

This was my first visit to the Leisure Centre and must say I was delighted with the high tea. The battered fish was just so fresh and scrumptious and the cream scones and fancies were great too.One gripe was the coffee wasn't strong enough for me but overall a bargain at £10. The laddie serving us was very attentive and immaculately dressed. Well worth a visit.

We've had both high tea and the restaurant evening meal recently and have visited 3 or 4 times in the last few years. They obviously don't pay a top chef or spend too much on staff training but the prices are good, and the food is fine and plentiful. Please don't ask us 4 times before we ordered if we wanted a drink from the bar! Fish as you could expect is always excellent, and I had gammon which also was of a high standard. This place is used by the locals and we always go when we are in the town. We visit occasionally from home 40 miles away. It's difficult to say why I like this place but it does seem to be more than the sum of its parts. Please get rid of the boy racers from the car park. They are open 7 days.

The worst high tea I've ever had.Microwaved food, not enough chips, frozen veg, scones hard must have been a few days old, and the "fancy cakes", well what can I say, a saucer with two rather old looking Mr Kippling's.

A good basic high tea. This was a meal in a group of about 20. The service was good and the meal was up to my expectations

Went for Saturday lunch and welcomed into restaurant by helpful staff. Extensive menu with many and varied starters, main courses and desserts. Really good service and quick delivery of drinks and food.The battered haddock was excellent and the baked potato with tuna and spring onion with salad and coleslaw was very good. Large portions.Very reasonably priced with entire bill at £12.00We will return for an evening meal soon.

We went for a meal on bank holiday Monday expecting the centre to be chock a block to our suprise it was fairly quiet, we were shown to our seats by a very courteous youn man who took our drinks order, wer wer a few minutes when he returned and asked if we were ready to order, this we did and he returned with our food in less than 5 minutes, I had lemon sole which I have to say was a generous portion and cooked to perfection, my wife had the chicken salad which again was a generous portion, we followed with a cheescake sweet along with our drinks the bill came to £23 superb

there steak with pepercorn sauce is lovely but..steak pie - pastry was doughy, tatties were black.. minging

Had evening meal with friends this week (12/03/13) and every1s plate was clean when finished.We all had a steak which was cooked to our liking. Plate was full and nicely presented.All had a dessert as well which was yummy.Have been going to the leisure centre for a few year and have always enjoyed the food.In my opinion it's nothing fancy, just plain, typical standard British fare.

had a good meal. service was good also, plesent staff had not to wait long for food would have liked copy of speicals in with menu missed on the way in on board, girl left menus on table when taken to seat but did not tell us them. they were busy but looked to cope no problem

Was there last Saturday (6th Jan) for a family get together at the bowling alley. Decided not to eat in Strikers, but to have a high tea instead. Service was excellent, didn't have to wait long for anything and really enjoyed our meal.Very reasonable, toast, main courser, tea/coffee and cakes for about 10 pounds each for me and the wife.
