The Mustard Seed Cafe in Aberdeenshire

Nice place to stop for lunch or a coffee pleasant friendly staff good quality in the food very enjoyable stop over parking close by

Absolutely fabulous find - purely by chance driving past Very clean and simple - food first class Served by the ladies who were totally on top of their game Had coffees, panini and coffees followed by bakes Highly recommended. Parking at the door for those that need it Great to see small place so busy

Food absolutely delicious and very attentive service even though it was so busy. A fabulous choice on the menu but SO many specials to choose from too! And cleaning was thorough in between each seating. Kudos to the chefs - the beef with whisky and haggis pate was delicious as was the monkfish - and to every member of staff we encountered who were so pleasant and made the evening really enjoyable.

Visited here for the first time, won't be the last! Lovely friendly welcome from the ladies, showing us all the lovely homemade cakes and scones. Also told us that they make pancakes to order, couldn't resist and wasn't disappointed! Lovely place and lovely waitresses! Will definitely be back!

Had a late lunch here with my wife. She had soup and a sandwich. Broccoli/Stilton and egg mayonnaise. Both were fresh and delicious. I had a toasted sandwich and asked for bacon & brie which wasn’t a combination on the menu but they obliged no problem. It is served with a small optional salad. The salad was slightly odd as it contained the usual salad veg but also included kiwi, pineapple, apple and grapes. Odd, but it worked well and the coleslaw was great. The home bakes looked mouth watering. We both had carrot cake. It was moist and perfectly spiced. The service was swift and friendly. This is a lovely place to have a light lunch or a news and a coffee. We will certainly be back.

A surprising and great find place alongside the local church in New Deer. The cafe is run on behalf of the church and is staffed by local ladies who provide a very warm and helpful welcome and provide homemade delicious food. We had lovely homemade cock-a-leekie soup(made in the traditional way with prunes) and a large hunk of very fresh bread along with a fruity scone and a pancake in the best Scottish tradition. I wish we lived nearer. The only drawback is that it is a bit out of the way but if you happen to be in the area, it is well worth seeking out for a light lunch.
