Mrs Smith's at Haddo in Aberdeenshire

I love this place and the staff. My dog and I always receive a friendly welcome. The food is fresh and prepared on request and tasty. It is in a lovely setting.

Been many times this year usually have latte they make it with full fat milk which makes is lovely and creamy best coffee had for ages.

Coffe and cake for 4 for £20. Lovely brownies - found on the last day of our hols or we would have been back for a lite bite. Very friendly pair of ladies who run the cafe.

Great little cafe with delicious soup, scones and homebakes. Thoroughly recommend. Only a few indoor seats but outdoor tables ideal for those wanting a quick cuppa after a walk round the estate. Staff very helpful and friendly

First time visit to the cafe it was a nice day managed to sit out side was not too cold. They sell caber coffee which was superb. Service really good nothing to much trouble.

OMG the baguettes are amazing and well worth the few minute wait for them to be made and heated up. Staff super friendly and polite, plenty of seating. Highly recommend if your at Haddo for a day out or like us looking for something to eat after an amazing Segway tour round the estate.

Lovely cafe with undercover outdoor seating. Staff helpful and friendly. At closure time , staff came round with scones at no charge. Lovely coffee and pots of tea. Cheese and onion scones and fruit scones were tasty and delicious. Would recommend a visit especially when visiting Haddo House and country park.

I was visiting the geese etc at Haddo estate with my grandchildren yesterday - for the first time. Popped into Mrs Smith's for a light lunch. The staff were lovely and very efficient at taking the orders. the mushroom soup was delicious but the caramelised onion and cheese scones were so amazing that I bought another 2 to take home to Edinburgh. I spoke to the manager yesterday and said there and then how wonderful the food was and very reasonably priced too.

I called in to this little cafe after getting the munchies following a long walk in the park, and had a Hot beef baguette. It was very good, nicely caramelised with all the deep flavour of slow cooked meat. Friendly staff too, what more could be asked for.

Staff are always friendly and a lovely selection of cakes and treats! Haddo House is a great walk with the family and the kids love getting a treat at the end of it!

Are you breaking Tier 4 restrictions by selling food to people sitting outside at your own tables rather than takeaway? Is this not considered outdoors eating as you’ve provided the tables with lighting and shelters? I don’t see other cafes trading like this under Tier 4.

Go very often, lovely coffee and cake. Haddo grounds are a great place to walk. Recommend the NYC Bagette.

This great little cafe is full of friendly staff and good food!! Perfect for a post dog walk catch up and a scone!!

Staff were friendly and the coffee and cakes excellent. Most of the space was taken up by noisy young mothers, buggies and screaming babies, so not a relaxing experience However, this wasn't the worst part.....the nearest lavatory was at least a five minute walk away which for someone in their mid seventies is far from ideal.

Lovely little Bothy serving the most delicious coffee with locally made cakes and fudge. Drinking water and treats outside for your dog too. Outside seating for the summer days and cosy seating inside.

Had a really tasty NYC baguette today at Mrs Smiths...............Loads of pastrami, slices of Jarlsberg cheese, juicy dill cucumbers plus mustard served in a fresh, crusty baguette.......... whats not to like? I had a pot of Clipper tea to drink.......The staff were warm and welcoming... Thank you . The reason it only managed 4 stars was the muffin. It was dry.....the frosting was so synthetic it should have come with a health warning! Anyway an enjoyable lunch..........the daft dog and I will be back xx

DO NOT THINK THIS IS MRS SMITH'S ANYMORE After a stroll around the gardens, we popped into the small café next to the car park for an early lunch. Have to say there did not seem to be a welcoming feeling as previous visits As someone who has food allergies we saw that cheese was the only thing available for me until found out it was white. No suggestion of anything even toast was offered, so we left !! Last time we were there, I had egg sandwiches... a lady came from the kitchen when she heard I could not eat what was on offer and suggested the egg sandwich. It was not as if the café was busy, no one was in there, I am sure that they had bread and probably eggs so do wonder why that was not suggested

I am biased when it comes to this place as we come here every weekend to walk the dog. The owner knows us as we've been coming for 4 years and she always comes out and gives the dog a treat . We love the coffee, the soup and the scones with clotted cream and jam! Kids love the brownies and the icecream.

Stopped for a drink only. Good selection of hot and cold at reasonable prices. Snack and food options looked good from what I saw been brought out and again, looked good value for money. Scones and cakes looked good, just a pity we had a good breakfast. Located next to car park.

After a long brisk walk around Haddo country park, there is nothing better than a coffee and cupcake at Mrs Smith’s You can even sit outside with the dog, where they also supply dog bowls and free dog biscuits Coffee is excellent, as are the cakes and scones

A lovely spot with good food,9 EXCELLENT coffee and really lovely staff catering for everyone.Great after a long walk round Haddo Estate.

We popped into here after visiting Haddo House. There is also a National Trust shop serving food. However, we went into here for the baguettes on offer and were not disappointed.There is seating outside and in. We had coffee and two freshly made warm baguettes that were full of ingredients. The staff were friendly and food was delicious.Based on our experience we would return and have no hesitation on recommending. Total cost £11.75, which we felt was good for what we had.

I had gone to Haddo House expecting to have a coffee in the tearoom attached to the House. I had no idea that there was another option, situated in a small building just across from the car park. I went in quite late in the afternoon, thinking it might be closing, but I was able to order a coffee and chose a strawberry cupcake to go with it. The coffee was very flavoursome and the cake hit the spot with a generous amount of icing on top and a juicy berry. The staff were polite and pleasant, and it all felt very relaxed. There are also tables outside, which would be fine when the heavy rain passed over. At a cost of £4.10 it was at the inexpensive end of the range for such things. I was very pleased with my experience.

Wow! Looked at the tearoom and was a poor selection so looked at mrs smiths and so glad we did. We had a cheese baguette and a roast beef baguette and they were both delicious and very reasonable. Much better selection than the actual tearoom in haddo.

Her var det koselig å sitte ut på benken etter en fin gåtur i parkanlegget til Haddo House. Det ble Kaffe/kaffelatte og is på oss på tur ut. Isen var veldig god ifølge våre minste is-spisere.

Two lovely special veggie bagette options. Tasty fillings, light bread, good value. Made a change from the usual offerings at many cafes. Staff very friendly.

I cannot fault this establishment. As a daily visitor to Haddo, I visit here regularly and have never been disappointed with anything I have ordered as all cooked/baked fresh. The staff are lovely and attentive and make great coffee and always greet me with a smile & chat, they are a credit to you Mrs Smith, especially on the cold winter mornings! Well done to this team for providing a great service.

Been here twice this month and found it pleasant enough for a quick snack. I enjoyed my second visit more as the Angus baguette had more well cooked beef in it and caramelised onion which they ran out of first time. The pulled pork and optional coleslaw was also filling and tasty. This is usually served in a brioche bun, but they had run out, so plain bap instead. Latte nice and well presented. A nice scone accompanied my soup with lurpak butter (my fav.butter). Surroundings basic, but o.k. for a pit stop. I would imagine noisy when full of kids. This place will be one of my regular stops as able to sit o/s with the dogs. I was not keen on the cup cakes as took a take away one and found it dry, despite eating same day. Also found prices reasonable.

We enjoyed coffee and cake while visiting Haddo House recently. This tearoom is one of two available on this site. It is quite basically furnished but very busy with couples and young families. The food was excellent but the hard surfaces amplified the chatter and we found the whole experience a bit noisy. Horses for courses and we will probably try the other tearoom on or next visit.

Great place to go when walking round Haddo grounds, good choice of coffees & teas as well as home bakes, soup and baguettes with range of fillings. I had a decaf soya latte, it was so good I had two with my meatball baguette 😋.

GIMME MORE, lemon drizzle is fabulous especially when in loaf form with the correct amount of sour to sweet ratio.. i accept (it was also sometimes gluten free!!)

He ido a la señora Smith con regularidad desde que abrió y simplemente se pone mejor. Mi favorito es normalmente la sopa y los rollos de tocino son excepcionales.

Muy recomendado después de caminar durante un poco o para escapar de la fría, es muy acogedor por dentro y la gente es muy amable y hablador. También se sirven bebidas calientes, con opción de lactosa (leche de soja), que era muy servicial! También era muy simpático con los niños como los chicos pudieron disfrutar de algunos bizcochos y zumo.

Mis amigos y yo asistí a la sala de té para un almuerzo. Entramos en la cafetería con la atmósfera increíble que nos invitó a pedir nuestra comida. Yo tenía el rollo de tocino que era absolutamente sublime el rollo era fresca junto con el tocino cocinados a la perfección. Sin embargo, mis amigos todos pedimos la sopa del día (Lentejas) el servicio de distribución de la comida fue genial! Mis amigos disfrutaron de la sopa sopa y describir el 'fuera de este mundo", lo cual me hizo pensar que debería de pedir la sopa. De todos modos, ya que nuestra comida no demolió todos nos llena, por lo que cuando al mostrador y pedimos una bañera de helado por Mackies enjambre. Esa fue la manera perfecta de terminar de nuestro almuerzo y luego perfecto disfrutar de nuestra última ola de altas en el recinto haddo. En general, recomendaría este lugar si estás luchando para elegir un lugar para tomar un té y café y un tentempié con azúcar! ! De todos modos, mis amigos y yo volveremos, Gracias por el día espectacular!

Llamado a aquí para un café rápido antes de nuestro paseo por el país. No podía resistir la bandeja de hornear Chocolate Oreo, una pieza para compartir, delicioso. 2 Grandes Americanos con leche caliente en un lado y una buena porción de tamaño de bandeja de hornear. Gran relación calidad-precio, una ubicación excelente, servido por el amable separadas. WiFi gratuito via BT Openzone. Altamente recomendado.

Fuimos después de pasear al perro alrededor del terreno de Haddo. Era cálido y amable, la comida (sándwiches, etc) es panini a un precio razonable y de buena calidad. La elección de bizcochos es increíble. Un gran lugar para ir si tienes niños, ya que es espacioso y cómodo, pero el mobiliario es de madera sólida y sensata, y el suelo de barro y botas permite derrame. No hay instalaciones de aseo en el edificio pero hay cerca. También hay asientos en el exterior para aquellos que desean disfrutar de cualquier días o para llevar sus perros junto con agua para los perros

Excelente sopa y sándwiches a precios muy razonables y el servicio muy amable. También tiene una buena variedad de tartas y bollos. Entorno encantador en el campo aberdeenshire.

Es un sitio Haddo especial para mí, su proximidad a Tarves donde crecí y tengo recuerdos muy gratos de huevos de pascua, escuela de visitas y paseos por la naturaleza. Ahora parece que su partida de esa manera para mi hijo de 2 años como ella recibe emocionado el segundo gire a conducir. Tan pronto como el parque quiere visitas Mrs Smith no importa a qué hora del día.

Hemos estado aquí un par de veces en su mayoría para el almuerzo. Tienen una opción super de varios bocadillos y ensaladas. Es bueno para los niños y las bolsas de comida son una buena relación calidad-precio. Si tienes habitación después de comer la bizcochos también son deliciosos.

Visited today and we both had latte. Absolutely lovely coffees. The service was first class and the price very reasonable. If visiting Haddo House or just the lovely grounds this is a great place to visit.

Been here a few times now. The coffee is very good and the service is excellent. The cupcakes however look good but do have a taste and texture of made the day before!!

Each visit here brings a smile to my face. Friendly and genuine staff making more and more home bakes which are delightful with a superb hot chocolate before walking our dog round the beautiful lake. Keep up the evolution and you will get to 5 stars.

Another visit and another great meal, friendly staff, good coffee and a lovely salad! My wee one likes the lunch packs and at £3.50 so do I!

My friend and I, along with our young kiddies, have been coming here weekly for over 2 years, rain wind or shine! More child friendly than the NTS cafe, cheaper prices and the food is better too! The coffee is lovely, home made soup beautiful no matter what kind, and omg the cakes!! Honestly the best cupcakes, with a great selection on offer. The staff in here are absolutely lovely, nothing is too much trouble for them. We are treated like royalty in this place, Mrs Smith and her team of ladies are always smiling and making our day! A fabulous cafe, which is also open all year round :)

We love haddo. But not sure about Mrs S's. Nice food choice we thought, well priced, but beef in beef and stilton salad was tasteless. Didnt like big bench rather than individual tables. Had a feeling of being in a kid's nursery school. And the welcome was a bit stoney. It will be back to the main cafe for us next time. But perhaps we are traditionalists. Sorry.

I have been here a number of times since my last review as Haddo House is one of my favourite places to take my little girl. My last visit stood out from these times however.As I am on a special diet at the moment I am finding it hard to eat out and avoid carb heavy meals. Usually I enjoy sampling the delicious fresh soup and sandwiches (and cakes) on offer at Mrs Smith's. But this time was different and I opted for a salad of the daily specials board. The salad was clean and crisp, the dressing was tasty and the olives, mozzarella and sun dried tomatoes were to die for. The portion was good too and it kept me fuelled as I chased my wee one around the park.As normal the staff were friendly and the restaurant was spotlessly clean. Great work, see you next weekend!

Visited here on advice of Trip Advisor, well worth the visit.After a long journey rolls and sausages and great coffee were much appreciated. Nice atmosphere and environment and very friendly chatty staff.

Having had my fill of NTS cafes (after a while they do become like a middle class Subway), Mrs Smith's at Haddo was located on the edge of the country park and just before the entrance at Haddo House, so the family and I decided to try it out. We were in a rush as only had 30 mins before our allotted tour, however, the staff were brilliant, swift and friendly and delivered our 4 bespoke baguettes in a matter of minutes. With nearly 20 fillings, you had the freedom to put your own set of fillings in a still warm baguette. I opted for avocado, bacon, chicken and lettuce - all the fillings were super fresh and it cost £4. Washed down with a little bit of fizzy vimtosat on the benches outside, we were suitably sated before our Georgian tour. There was a host of homemade cakes on offer as well as hot drinks and even some duck food to feed the little quacks in the country park. Simple, fresh and honest food.

Great little cafe located on the doorstep of Haddo house next to the car park. Offers a variety of sandwiches to order or a small selection already made up in the fridge, delicious coffee and hot drinks and a simply amazing selection of home bakes.Staff are friendly and the prices are keen.The cafe is tastefully decorated with nice furniture, locally made gifts and art on show and additionally offering bird seed for sale to feed the ducks with.

Had delicious cappucino and excellent cake here after a wee walk round the country park. Excellent friendly service and very good value. All made locally. Outside seating brilliant if you have the dog! Perfect post walk place to stop, (or even without a walk!). Highly recommended

Not been to Haddo for a few years, we decided to have a stroll around the grounds and went in to the NTS café..and then after looking at the Menu walked out(another story).I thought the little shop next to the car park sold drinks so popped in there and was amazed to see a few gifts, tables and chairs and a menu !!The staff are so friendly.We ordered and the wait was not long, the food I would recommend to everyone.If it had been slightly warmer we would have sat outside and eaten whilst watching for squirrels.My hubby had a Bacon Sandwich and it was overflowing with bacon which pleased him !! Now for the tea taste results ....lovely big pot for 2 and oodles of milk supplied...the tea was Twinning's and that a good one for the water there....strong enough for me !!!!

Had just finished a walk round the beautiful park and popped in here for a coffee. 2 lattes and very nice too. Reasonably priced and very large. Service excellent. Will definitely be back and possibly sample some more of the delights displayed on the menu.

What a little gem of a place, between fine cakes and bacon rolls you can't go far wrong here. After walking out of the main cafe at Haddo we have used Mrs Smiths ever since and have never been disappointed. Keep up the good work.

Amazing cakes, great hot drinks, wonderful people serving and good prices! I will purposely go out my way to grab a cupcake here when I can.

Lovely cakes, coffee, sandwiches and hot rolls. Gorgeous gifts too. Perfect after a walk around the country park.

I have been frequenting Mrs Smiths all summer and into the Autumn as a regular dog-walker - great coffee, great scones, SUPERB sausage and bacon rolls, lovely dog biscuits (the free ones and the ones for sale) and the staff are pretty awesome as well!!
