The Inn at Heath Hill in Aberdeenshire

Was there with a large family group and it was completely faultless. Staff were excellent and seen to all our needs and the food was delicious

We went as a family of 4 - 2 had roast 2 various other meals. The roast beef melted in your mouth,it really is one of the best roast dinners I have had for years, the others were also really pleased with their meals and the waitresses are such nice girls. Highly recommend 😊

Anniversary meal. Turned up by chance and was accommodated for an evening meal. Staff friendly, food was good. Took home a pudding. Will go again!

Really enjoyable evening. Food was great, wine was great. The atmosphere is enjoyable. I like that the staff wear visors instead of masks so you can see their faces. Much better. Worth the short journey out of town.

Visited here on a whim and really enjoyed the wonderful food and the attentive, friendly service. Good Covid procedures too.

First time I've been here in a few years and it was really good. Turkey and trimmings followed my King prawn and sweet chilli dip and all were good. My friend had beef steak pie, broth and ice cream and he enjoyed his as well. Warm and friendly atmosphere. Would definitely go back.

Me and my family all went for a last minute meal to health hill and to say it was amazing is an understatement never had a meal nicer than that. i had the peppered steak strips and they was to die for. The staff also were amazing felt very welcome especially from the lovely girl with blonde hair and glasses, was so polite and her manners was amazing.

Having had many meals here over the years it remains one of the most consistent better places for a meal in the area. There is a good choice of dishes on the menu. Something to suit everyone. Always tasty. Never had a bad meal here. Service is very good and there is a nice atmosphere. Great value for money. If you want to fill your plate with a cheap mass produced microwaved meal then go to the likes of Weatherspoons. Personally I prefer proper food cooked in house and happy to pay a bit extra for it. Normally always busy which speaks for itself

Visited with friends and had such a great night. The food was excellent and the service exceptional. Two young waitresses (one of them the owner’s daughter we later found out) carried out their duties efficiently and with good humour.

Fabulous menu, and quality of food was brilliant. Service was super prompt, and friendly staff. Would definitely return.

This is a fantastic family run hotel, the rooms are lovely, the food is outstanding and the peace and quite is just serene You can tell it's good simply by the way all the locals come to eat here, the staff are so friendly nothing is to much trouble, recomend to anyone

Travelling around Scotland we called on some relatives living in Fraserburgh and they suggested we meet here for lunch and a natter. Good choice. The building is a good solid looking Aberdeenshire steading that has an ample sized dining space which was comfortingly full considering it was a Tuesday lunchtime and this is not on a main street. That meant the food had to be good. It was. Personally had the battered haddock and it was a good portion size, nice flaky fish and all the trimmings you would hope for. The menu is full of good simple cooking that comes in good portions at a reasonable price. One of my favourite things about the whole place was the sign I saw on the door on arrival. I

Booked table for 5 people 1800hrs 30th June, arrived 1755hrs. As you enter hotel you are met by a reception desk, lights on at desk no one in sight or sign with instructions. Enter through door to bar area, standing for 30 seconds girl approaches and says "yes" not welcome, may I help you or anything as you would expect. Explained that we had booked. Girl took us to a table in the conservatory and left, with us thinking she was away to collect some menus, no she left us there until 1810hrs. When she returned to ask if we wanted a drink, still no menus. Eventually the menus are brought at 1820 and drinks served at 1825hrs. Time now 1840hrs and a number of staff passing our table while we are all making it clear that we are ready for our order to be taken, but no not one of them took any notice. So we decide to leave and all 5 stand up at once and leave passing 2 members of staff on route and pass the bar with another two staff members, not one of them took any notice or asked if there was an issue, they just watched us walk out the door. Went to another local hotel and had a lovely meal and welcome. Haven't been to Heath Hill for a number of years and wont be returning. Having now shared our experience with a number of friends, it is apparent that this type of service is normal for here now. The owner would clearly have known we had an issue and had our number from our booking but chose just to ignore.

We were looking for a special restaurant as a wrap up to our visit to the northern coast of Scotland and thank you to our wonderful hosts. This restaurant was the perfect place. We sat in the atrium with views across the rolling countryside. There were six of us and everyone was very satisfied with their meals. I had the roast beef special fresh vegetables and roasted potatoes. My sister choose the roast chicken stuffed with haggis with mashed potatoes and gravy plus vegetables. Both selections were very tasty. The after dinner coffees were nicely prepared. The driveway entrance was bordered by stone fences with “Hairy Coos” Scottish cattle in the pasture watching us as we drove in. This place was a favorite of our hosts.

This visit was to celebrate a birthday at one of our favourite restaurants where we have never been disappointed. Set in the country a family run and operated restaurant. Everyone is always made welcome where booking is advised to avoid disappointment, there is ample parking. As I love fish my favourite dish has to be Haddock Craig Ewan but there is always plenty other dishes to choose from.

Myself & my now hubby used to come here regularly when we were dating about 12/13yrs ago. So I took my hubby here a wee surprise today and was not let down. Food was fantastic and it was just what I had hoped it would be after all these years. All the food was fantastic (and I am really fussy!) but I have to give a special mention the battered Haddock, it was utterly sublime. Light, crispy and full of flavour. I think the picture says it all. Good Job guys.

Great restuarant and the food is lovely. The choice on menu is brilliant, Starters, Mains and Sweets and a brilliant list of drinks in the bar. A family run business and a very friendly restuarant..There is also a room that can be booked for a small private party and there are rooms to let, unsure how many there are.

Honestly just meh. Lovely decor and perfectly rustic building; however, unenthusiastic staff and long wait for food after ordering ruined it. That’s not to say the girls weren’t nice, they took orders and handed out food fine - I just saw no evidence of going the extra mile. Food itself was not the best standard, I ordered the steak burger and it tasted as if I had ordered a burger from McDonald’s. More hamburger than steak burger. Although I do love hamburgers; I expect a higher standard for £12. I was hopeful dessert would lift the experience, I mean who doesn’t love chocolate fudge cake? However when it arrived it was dry and almost tasted as though it was made yesterday (all the cream provided was needed). Overall it was alright and not a negative experience, but I won’t be rushing back.

Can never fault this place from very good food and drink too very friendly staff the portion sizes are massive and not too expensive

Had a lovely dinner here we were served quickly though the place was really busy. The meal itself excellent no complaints from our table the staff were friendly and accommodating Happy diners

A birthday party so nine of us went out for dinner .first visit for me.Amazing ambience with lots of character and things to look at. Nice cosy table, good service, fine food and good value .Everybody very happy. Helpful and attentive staff, plenty of car parking.

Had a lovely lunch here with a friend. We ate in the conservatory, did actually book a table, however it was quite quiet, but would rather book than be turned away. Decent menu and varied too. Very friendly staff. I had the scampi and my friend had the chicken curry and it was all delicious. We were going to have dessert but unfortunately we were too stuffed. Thoroughly enjoyable lunch. Surrounded by lovely countryside.

This is a busy restaurant, it's always best to book, yes, you might be lucky, just walk in and get a table, but why would you chance disappointment? The service is always good here, very attentive, and extrememly helpful. Menu is fairly varied, from steaks to curries, and everything in between there's defininely something to suit everyone, my own personal favourite is the chicken stroganoff. The restaurant is always busy with local people from nearby Fraserburgh, to me, if they can be bothered getting into their cars and driving out of town a few miles to eat, then that's a good enough sign for me to know it's worth dropping in by.

Very nice atmosphere and lovely food. We can't fault a meal yet. Good value for money and very nice b&b;.

Having not visited this restaurant for some time, we received a voucher at Christmastime and we took the opportunity to visit with our two Danish friends.

10 of went here for a meal, we couldn’t fault it in any way. The service was attentive, the menu was varied had something for everyone, and the meal was great from starters mains and sweets. Thoroughly enjoyed

Been here several times now, never had a bad experience. Food is always spot on, plenty of good choices and fine for a wee hearty meal.

December 2017 i visited Fraserburgh and was lodged at the Heath Hill. A pleasant reunion! A familiar surrounding was my first impression. Quiet area which guarantees a good sleep. Sometimes I hear the creaking of the wood but that is the authenticity of the hotel :). Had diner together with my hosts and enjoyed the delicious food. Very friendly hospitable staff. The hotel can use some modernisation but please, keep the authenticity! I enjoyed my stay!

Tucked away just outside the village of Memsie, Aberdeenshire, The Inn at Heath Hill is a must visit.

I stay at the Inn for three or four days each year when up working in Fraserburgh. Staff are very friendly and prices reasonable. I can honestly say that the food in the restaurant has never disappointed.

Popped in past on the way home a great treat.

We revisited Heath Hill on Saturday 20th January 2018. The restaurant was very busy and we expected a long wait,...

Christmas catch up. Great place good food pleasant staff had a thoroughly enjoyable evening no complaints from us

We like it here, nice if small menu, always fresh and hot and service is always good and a decent...

My husband and I visited here last week and were very disappointed with our meals. I had meat combo, the...

We ate here tonight and it was my first visit as I’m not from the area. The first thing I noticed was that all the staff were young which can mean they don’t know about good service. To be fair they all worked hard and were friendly and running around serving and the restaurant was busy. But they lacked the finery of good service.

I ate here on a Friday night about 5:30pm. The restaurant wasn’t very busy so I didn’t need to book at that time. The restaurant has a traditional and family-friendly vibe. I had the steak pie which was absolutely delicious. The beef was really tender and tasted nice. The pastry was light and fluffy, whilst the vegetables tasted nice and fresh . It also came with a side portion of chips which were tasty also. I also had one drink and the final bill was under £15 which was good value. The menu was also very varied as there were non-traditional items also like chicken curry and a chicken/chorizo pasta available. The service was good and I was checked on during my meal. Overall I would recommend this restaurant to other people who like traditional home-cooked food in a family atmosphere, and I will definitelt eat here again soon as the food is so fine.

Amazing food and at a great affordable price the food is of high quality and freshly made. All the food contemplates each other in a magnificent way would highly recommend

Family meal for 10 adults & 3 children... Menu was very good hard to decide what to have smoked haddock goujons for a starter are a must even the youngest child was eating them!! Children's menu very good also they all got something they liked. Staff very friendly and we didn't have a long wait in between courses very reasonably priced also..

This gem in the countryside serves the most outstanding food with matching outstanding customer service. Nothing is too much trouble. If in the area make a booking even if not staying at the hotel itself.

Went here for lunch for a change and it was good a good selection on the menu friendly staff, and the food was presented well.

First visit to the Inn at Heath Hill and will certainly return. Busy restaurant with great meal and a fine menu of good food. Staff all very pleasant right from top to bottom. Location very nice and great value for money. My only disappointment is taking so long to visit. Do not make the same mistake. Phone up and book a table as a busy place. See you soon.

Stayed here on various occasions over the last year with work.Excellent rooms and food is excellent also fast and friendly service.

Despite asking for a table in the conservatory we were put into a back room with a loud birthday party beside us. Not great for a mothers day lunch. We had not been told at the time of booking that it was a mothers day special fixed meal, probably would not have come if know this. The menu had a good selection on it but choices were very bland and old fashioned - prawn cocktail. haddock mornay! The starters arrived and they were reasonable - the Cullen skink was bland. Main courses arrived with soggy veg. 2 of us had ordered the chicken with a stroganoff sauce. The sauce was none existent but it was the chicken that had been cooked cooked and cooked again my dad had to spit it out and I could barely swallow. When mentioned to the staff they immediately took the plates away and we reordered the haddock mornay, The menu had stated that the sauce had white wine through it so I thought it would be a light sauce , nope it was like cheap packet cheese sauce, I scraped it off . The fish was barely warm but was tasty unlike the veg that was overcooked. The desserts were tasty, best part of the meal. No offer of coffee/tea. Possibly expected too much on a mothers day in a small town. May go back to give it another try

Nice place with great atmosphere. Service was quick and we didn't have long to wait to place our order or get our food . Maybe I'm old fashioned but I prefer my food on a plate both my starter and main course were served on a lump of wood . My starter of chicken pieces was enjoyable my main course of a burger was nice but def not the best I've ever had . My wife had chicken stroganoff which she said was bland and tasteless . The bill for five of us was very reasonable but we won't be hurrying back !

Was at Heathhill on Saturday with friends. Had a lovely meal. Nice surroundings. Staff lovely very helpful and attentive. Food was excellent.

Always have a nice meal and enjoy sitting in the conservatory (though it can be warmer on a winter's evening to be inside). Menu always offers something worth trying.

Visited on a Monday night for my birthday , was quite busy , had a good selection on menu and was hard to choose ,food was lovely and a good size portions. Will be back

Great meal, lovely friendly waitresses. Nice and cosy .. Amazing food, cooked to perfection. Lots of good choice for a fussy eater like me. Would thoroughly recommend.

In the area on October break, went to eat at another pub a few miles away only to doscover it had stopped serving food for the end of the season. The owners recommended Heath Hill, so we drove across. What a lovely surprise. We had a really enjoyable meal and our waitress was lovely, very friendly and helpful. The menu is good, with everything from fish 'n' chips to a roast dinner. We had children with us and it was a lovely, spacious, family friendly place to eat. Would go back if ever up that way again.

Once again another fantastic meal great ingredients great taste served by fantastic well mannered staff we have dinned here on numerous occasions & always look forward to the next time

Iv been here a few times sometimes the food is just perfect and then the next time it's not so good. I think it depends what time you go in and if it's busy or not

As always we called to confirm that the establishment is dog friendly. To be told no, no dogs allowed. Just pleased that we didn't make the drive as the information on trip advisor said that it is dog friendly.

Haben das Restaurant per Zufall gefunden. Haben ein sehr gutes Mittagessen genossen bei einer schönen Umgebung.Die Einrichtung ist mit alten Gegenständen sehr idyllisch.

A country inn with excellent food, friendly and efficient service, and a lovely setting. Traditional Scottish and European food prepared well.

I have dined here a lot of times over the years, Heath hill is one of my favourite restaurants in the area- Portion sizes are spot on and there is something for every taste on the menu. The menu seems to focus on traditional food and having sampled several meals here the one thing in common they all have is that they are consistently very good quality and represent really good value for money.There is a nice relaxed ambience within, the restaurant is set away from the road therefore is a very quiet place to dine in. I particularly like the farmhouse type theme decor- it definitely fits with the location. Service is very efficient, from the lovely lady whom took payment from me asking if everything was to our liking to the young waiting staff who acted immediately on any request any of my family had. Clearly attentiveness features highly here.Highly recommended.

Went here for lunch today and had a great time. plenty of choice on the menu and a couple of specials. Well priced too and decent portions. Staff friendly too. Have been here several times and would definitely go back again

My husband and family decided to book the restaurant for a surprise birthday treat for myself. After having given order waitress returned and I was told that the chef "refused" to cook sirloin as not on Sunday lunch menu. Broth luke warm, Soggy batter on fish, inedible. Apple pie appeared to be microwaved. Steak pie dry and tasteless. Family really disappointed that a birthday treat was such a let down.

We went here to celebrate my mother in laws 50th birthday for a meal and it was lovely. the atmosphere was nice and cozy and the staff were very welcoming. They even allowed us to bring in our own cake for her and took it though so we could all sing happy birthday. they then served our cake with their ice cream which was just lovely as i know some places would be a bit funny serving you something that didn't come from their kitchen. But they were overall extremely accommodating and I cant wait to return.

Went here at 8 pm on a Sunday evening for dinner. The restaurant was busy and we were seated beside the bar so we asked to move to the conservatory. The conservatory was much quieter but with only the car park for a view.The meal was OK. The menu is unadventurous but with plenty choice and the food was cooked well enough. Just not very exciting or well presented. The staff were polite and efficient. After our main course we asked for 10 minutes before we decided on dessert or coffee but were told that the kitchen closed at 9pm. As another reviewer ha mentioned, there's not a great deal of choice in the area but we won't be rushing back.

On arrival we were directed to the restaurant, the staff were polite. The restaurant includes an area inside a large conservatory, it was light, spacious, comfortable and welcoming. The lady that served us was polite and helpful. We were a family group of four and between us we had two different starters and four different main courses, three desserts and two liqueur coffees. Two of had the home made pate starter, this was excellent. Two of us had the prawn cocktail starter, but this was a little watery towards the end. Of the main courses the Chicken curry was really good, but the Ploughman's lunch was disappointing. There were three cheeses, cheddar, brie and stilton, all were fine, there was a selection of small fruits, strawberry, grapes, slices of apple and kiwi fruit all were fine as was the pickle. The roll was a little on the small side for a ploughman's and the salad was disappointing. Onion, whether fresh or pickled, is essential, a key ingredient in what should be a plain rustic meal, was sadly lacking, the salad consisted of a couple of pieces of tomato, a slice of cucumber and mixed leaves and some pieces of chopped peppers, what onion there was, was too finely chopped and lost in the mixed leaves , which didn't seem too fresh. The roast meal, the beef was well cooked, a little too well cooked, not a hint of pink, not what was expected and the roast potatoes we believe were deep fried, not baked.The lasagna was dry and there was a little black on the top as if slightly burnt. The liqueur coffees were both lacking sufficient demerara sugar and were more bitter, rather than sweet and the cream didn't seem right. None of these faults were show stoppers, and we didn't think that they were bad enough to complain about, but we had higher expectations and ended up a little disappointed. This was more like pub grub, not a hotel restaurant. On another day, none of this may have occurred, and we wont say that we wont return, but we just wont be in a hurry.

Good choice on the menu and pleasant ambience. Although one main dish was missed from the order - it appeared before too long.Enjoyable food and settng

Had a fantastic meal here, the service was great and the food was really delicious, what I loved most was the desserts as they were really tasty and just the right size, the different flavour of the cheesecake was fantastic as it was different from the bog standard ones you normally get. The wine list was nicely varied too

We turned up late for lunch on a boiling hot day when we were not prepared to leave the dogs in the car even with the windows open and were taken in like family. A table was laid up outside and every thing we wanted was immediately attended to with such a friendly and pleasant attitude that it was clear that they really treat everyone like that all the time. We had a very pleasant meal and a break in the middle of 6 hours of driving and felt immensely cheered with the human spirit as well as rested.

4 of us had a Father's Day Celebration Meal at this restaurant. Great selection of local food superbly and simply cooked. Super, friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere. Very reasonable prices too.

I was here earlier this week with a work colleague, and we were looking for a nice quiet hotel and restaurant. This fitted the bill entirely, with well appointed rooms, unpretentious, free wifi, a great and busy restaurant on the Sunday night, and very friendly service. It's well signposted too, and only a vyer short drive to Fraseburgh.

Came across this place whilst driving around the East coast . The hotels restaurant has a conservatory attached with plenty comfortable seating . We had a 2 course set lunch for £12.95 there was plenty to choose from . Our soup was served piping hot as was our main dishes which were pies with plenty fresh veg and potatoes . The staff were friendly and the service was excellent . Plenty parking on site and well worth a visit .

Went here for lunch on a Saturday afternoon a few weeks back.Even though it was Valentine's we got a table without reservation, it was actually pretty quiet but they were clearly gearing up for a busy day, setting tables etc but this didn't affect the good service we recieved.Good simple selection of family favourites on the menu and we both opted for the beef steak pie which was lovely, tender and delicous. No complaints about our meal whatsoever and reasonably priced.

I stayed three nights in this family run hotel whilst on business, The cheerful staff, good food and well stocked br made my stay one of the most plesant of all the many hotels I havestayed in over many yea3s. Thnks to all, prticularly Charlie for great hotel periene.

Really nice fresh cooked food with a nice varied menu. The staff are nice and friendly better to book at weekends as it can be very busy.

We were here for lunch recently.The adults had a burger and a chicken burger. Each was accompanied by chips, a small salad, coleslaw and a sauce. Each was £5.99. This was very good and good value at the price.The children had braised beef and chicken in gravy. Each was accompanied by chips and beans or peas. Each was £4.99. This was again very good and good value at the price.The conservatory setting has a pleasant, open feel. This has recently been tastefully refurbished.The staff were friendly and efficient and good with the children.

kind and friendly waitress prompt service excellent choice of meals on the menu waitress very attentive will definately go back there in the near future

We eat here quite alot since the old owners have taken the restaurant back over. The menu is really great with specials available daily. They have a lovely conservatory and a lounge area for seating. The lounge has old farm house feel whilst the conservatory is more modern. The staff are really friendly and helpful and if you have any special requirements the chefs are always happy to help. It is very busy at the weekend so I would advise you to book

Had several family meals at Heath Hill and always been pleased, good service, nice friendly staff, good variety on the menu and lovely quality food. Will definitely return again.

In the middle of nowhere, this place is worth the drive. Good food with friendly service and not too expensive for what you get. I have been here several times and it doesn't disappoint.

Nice homely feel about the place but never very warm and often you have to sit with your jacket on till your body gets used to the cold atmosphere - Have eaten in this restaurant many times but they cannot seem to get the food just right the old hit or miss scenario - would not eat fish here - food is very seldom ever served hot and the chef does not know what a rare steak is - but as there is so little choice in the NE I keep returning so it can’t be that bad

Came with my Husband on a very rare meal out together. After reading other reviews, we did not know what expect, some were not very complimentary to say the least. However, we must of been to a totally different restaurant. The staff was attentive, the service was excellent and the food was fantastic!!!!!! We had a really good night and are definitely coming back and next time taking the family with us. Thank you all at Heath Hill for a very enjoyable evening.

We went with friends on Saturday night and were looking forward to the evening. The starters were nothing great and prawns came right out the freezer with some salad nothing special. For mains 3 of us ordered fillet and I ordered sirloin steak. The steaks were cooked to our liking, but unfortunately the vegetable served were horrible and certainly not what would be served with steak. it was a mixture of sprouts, carrots, turnip cabbage and runner beans, all mixed up in a bowl, just horrible. The sweets were okay but again not home made and right out the freezer. You should be ashamed of yourselves taking lazy we expected fresh fresh ingredients. We even witnessed one of the bar man sneezing into his hanky and the proceeded to serve drinks without washing his hands., we will definitely not be returning as poor hygiene standards were witnessed and food was not what you would expect when paying large amount of money for such poor quality.give this place a miss there are far better restaurants in the area

just travelled 600 miles with family of four, had really good meal.. varied menu.......staff very pleasant and helpfull. would visit again.

We went to the Heathhill on Saturday 20th July,basically on the spur of the moment. We called at about 4pm to book a table and had originally asked for a table at 5pm, we were told that they could accomodate us at 6.15pm. Anyway we didnt think anything more about the timings, just assumed they would be busy. We arrived at 6pm and were seated immediately. The first thing that struck us was why were we asked to come at 6.15pm when so many tables were empty.Anyway that aside our drinks order was taken quickly, unfortunately i nearly ended up wearing my drink as it was spilled all over the table. That aside it was cleaned up quickly and new cutlery was given.Our starters and main courses were ordered and have to say both my wife and I really enjoyed our meals. Good sized portions and cooked to perfection. We were asked if we wanted a suite and we somehow managed to squeeze them in. All in all bill came to £57 which included several drinks, which we thought was very reasonable.We will definately go back at some point.Given the nice weather at the weekend it would have been great to sit outside, not sure if the Heathhill does this, but it is in such a country setting it would be something worht considering for the future, i would have really enjoyed this as we dont normally get the opportunity in Aberdeenshire to sit outside, but with the fantasitc weather at the moment, it would have went down a treat.

We went for Sunday lunch with our 3 children. Very limited menu at lunches although we didn't mind. The children fish was very greasy and I had to remove the batter and request clean plates. The roast beef and pork were basic with poor side veg. The sweets were bought in and again very basic. My biggest concern though was that an extra 20% was added on to our total bill for v a t. It certainly was not obvious on the menu that this was not included in the advertised price. This place could have so much potential, there is certainly a need of a decent family restaurant in the area. I would love to see honest home cooked food here, and then we might return.

Went for a meal at heath hill, we were sat in what only can be described as the main route through the restaurant, we had the waitresses bump in to us as they were passing and had their butt in our faces as they were taking the order from the tables at either side of us, we asked the waitress if we could move to a table beside the window that came free, she went to ask the boss and the next thing we knew the couple at the table next to us were being moved to the table we requested! We had to wait 20 minutes for our order to be taken, We had to wait a further 35 minutes for our starters, and it seemed to me that if you were a local or a regular you got preferential treatment.. new folks trying the place for the first time.... forget it, food was 'ok' at best, they didn't hang around when it came to dishing out the bill though! The service spoiled a special night out and we definitely will not be back, nor will we recommend it to our friends.

We really enjoyed our meal at Heath Hill last Saturday night. We had a table in the conservatory which was great, the service was excellent as was the food. It was very busy and had a good buzz about it. We would definately return and recommend to our friends.

we visited this restaurant for the first time 2 months ago and it was brilliant! went this week and it was a complete let-down!starter of garlic mushrooms was fine...mains were shocking..partner had beef steak pie and most of it was watery gravy with little beef and 2 tiny new potatoes on the plate!..had to ask for veg and what came was frozen carrot discs and green beans (yuk!)..last time we visited we had a huge selection of veg-mashed neeps, brocolli,cauliflower, peas..heaps of tatties and plenty chips!sweets were poor...tiny piece of cheesecake (which just looked like a bought one-not home made!) and the sticky toffee pudding tasted just like a ginger sponge with the tiniest dribble of toffee sauce on top-not moist at all...no dates in it...just bland and tastless..probably the worst sticky toffee pudding i have eaten!hopefully the chef was just having an off night but for what we paid (not cheap!)...doubt will be back...an utter shame as we had raved about this place to our friends when we visited last! :(

Fantastic food, great service and all for a reasonable price. The place was very busy and we could see why. Slow to get served our starter but there were 3 very large table in so could understand the wait. Hot plates for hot food always a good sign and we were not disapointed. Well done

On a previous visit my mother had the best beef stroganoff she's ever tasted in her life, so she recommended that we try it. Unknown to her, the Inn has changed ownership in the last few weeks. She was looking forward to having the stroganoff again, but it is now a totally different menu and now serves typical pub grub. In fairness the food is well cooked. I had an ice cream cup cake as dessert and it was made by a local firm and it was the highlight of the meal.The cosy bar had a wood burning stove and looked very inviting, but that wasn't set up for eating food. The restaurant is beyond the bar in a huge garden room/ conservatory. When we visited it was a freezing cold day and the restaurant only had two other diners, so it was absolutely glacial. I was worried that my elderly mother would find it too cold, but she was swathed in so many layers of cashmere that she was OK. I think they should consider serving food in the bar for the colder part of the year.

This restaurant serves simple, hearty food, in generous quantities. My Scottish soup was amazing, and my fish was excellent. My wife also enjoyed her meal very much. Service was extremely friendly. Nice atmosphere, decent pricing. Would definitely go back.

Went on a Saturday night as a table of four and it was fully booked. After initially sitting at a window table, we were then asked to move, as it had been reserved for someone else? Then after a discussion, they changed their minds. We ordered four mains; the men both had smoked haddock and black pudding in a white wine sauce; the sauce had no taste whatsoever and was just a white sauce. One of the females has Pork with black pudding in a Stilton sauce; again, the sauce had no taste whatsoever and was just a white sauce. The dish was cold and had to go back to the kitchen.On to the sweets and we ordered two sticky toffee puddings; both were cold and had to go back to the kitchen. Then they were returned and we were left with no cutlery. Had to go to the counter to ask for spoons!. When we settled the bill, we told the manager about the problems we had with our food, but he replied that he would let the chef know! No apology, no discount, no free bottle of wine. Nothing.The food overall was pretty tasteless and half of it was cold. Three of our 6 meals had to go back to the kitchen for heating; basic mistakes. Mistakes can be forgiven but without even an apology, I'm afraid we won't be returning; back to Pitsligo Arms methinks....

We had our second visit to this establishment last night and once again we were very impressed by the warm welcome given and by the quality of the food. Fraserburgh itself is sadly lacking in pleasant places to eat but having discovered this inn, we will make it a destination every time we are in the area. Food is fresh and tasty - and plentiful! All in all, a very good experience.

Good food, great atmosphere and not out of the way in price. Very pleasant setting
