The Wig in Aberdeen City

I went in and the place looked amazing it's a great atmosphere and the food is to die for especially the hand made burgers wow there chips are perfectly seasoned and full of flavour there homemade coleslaw is better then another Iv had I would deffo recommend this place if U want real food for the price, the staff was friendly and the music was fun can't wait to go back again soon I have tried to put 5 stars on food service and atmosphere but it's not saving my preference so I'm saying it here 5* food 5* service 5* atmosphere and I'm giving my own 5* for how kind and friendly the place is and it's also dog friendly

This was a fun place. We went for the free trivia, and we got nachoes for playing as well. Nice couches and fireplace. Host was great.

You won't get ignored in The Wig - a very friendly pub with a wide selection of spirits. A great place if you're looking for a rum!

Came for a few pints and some food, good beer selection both on tap and in fridges. Food was excellent, hot dog topped with buffalo chicken and hot sauce. Very generous portions. All in was excellent and would recommend.

I was very pleasantly surprised with the Wig we had it is on vouchers and decided to go in for a meal. And all I can say is their burgers are amazing and the service is some of the best I have had in a pub environment in Aberdeen. Would highly recommend it to anyone who loves burgers mac & cheese and fries to die for.

Just one round on way to an event. Friendly and relatively speedy service. Beer a bit flat if I'm honest, but found this in a few bars around the city on my visit. Biggest issue here for me was the music level. They must not expect anyone to have a conversation.

Lovely food, nice to see pub grub in Aberdeen that isn't from a chain! Recommend the bourbon beef nachos and bourbon beef burger.

Typical bar fare, friendly bar staff

Very great atmosphere. Food was delicious and of top quality. Staff are excellent and very friendly. I had the wig burger, my dad the Texan burger and my mum the mac and cheese. We all finished (genuinely big portions) and will defo be back!🤩

Very friendly, much appreciated ☺️

Went in for a couple of pints and something to eat before the Aberdeen game. We had lovely food, the Balmoral Mac and cheese, and Mexican burger. Neither of us could finish our plates, the portions were so generous. Will definitely be back👍

Such a friendly staff and a great pub to spend the evening! Especially when you like to watch live sports as well. I can totally recommend it 😎

Pretty good burger and chips and a decent pint to be found here at this centrally located pub.

Very enjoyable pub, good selection, great service and right across from taxi rank

Nice place to "hang out" ... we saw part of the os inauguration and had a good drink. Pleasant and committed staff. Also ate the next day and it was okay. It's just a shame that they play the music so loud and it drags the whole thing down a bit.

The Wig has always been a great little pub. Friendly staff, great food. Nice to see the rum selection is being built back up

What a great little bar, lovely bar person (possibly owner?), great craic but surprisingly quiet - tho it was early on a Thursday afternoon\ evening! This place should be jumping - rather than peeps visiting their (in my opinion dreadful) chain neighbour 😃! Give this place a go! We didn't eat here as we'd had lunch with friends before visiting, but the food looked lovely too!

Been in Aberdeen today thought I would call hear today one of the best places I've ever been for food

Great gaff when visiting mates in Aberdeen.... felt very Welcome!!! Thanks 😊

Fine atmosphere when it’s quiet

£3.60 a pint of Tennents to undercut pub on coener

Warm and friendly, they play live music and show sports on decent sized screens! Not sure if they serve food.

Cerveza más barata que en otros locales, variedad de bebidas. Música en directo

Nice wee bar to watch the football in, staff are very friendly and quick with your orders

👎🏻Venue: This was not good. The water wasn’t working properly in the toilets, it was dark, dingy and unclean, and absolutely no atmosphere. 🍻Food & Drink: Okay… no food was available (have since heard it’s currently closed - this doesn’t come as a shock). 🥸Clientele: Just us! The barman was helpful though so credit to them. 🌟Summary: Unfortunately this has been left to run down, and eventually close. A good location so we hope someone can do something to revive it.

Stopped here on our way home for a quick drink and was pleasantly surprised. The palace was cheap and cheerful, would happily return.

had 4 dirty glasses what a joke of a pub and the bar man tryed to pour the same drink into a new glass

Got my G&T served in a wine glass & my friend got brandy & diet coke in a small dumpy glass ...

Great city centre bar. Usually pretty busy. Wide diversity of clientele. Good selection of drinks with a very good rum collection. Recommended.

Despite the profile pic, this pub no longer serves food. However, I was aware of this already. Met my friend for a quiet midweek catch up. Welcomed straight away by the bar man, found comfy cleen quiet space at the back. Great juke box and James the barman kept the drinks flowing. Would highly reccomend here if you want to hear yourself think.

Wow! It's been pre-Covid since I have been in and so how it has changed. No lager except for Heineken and Boretti. Near £5 for pint of Morreti. I was only one in. It was a Wednesday mid-afternoon. One staff and no complaints with staff. This must be one of the many hundreds of pubs across from Scotland that will be shutting in the coming months.

I really liked it. Relaxed atmosphere, background music, friendly staff.

Another place I was glad to still open. Didn't stay too long as I felt out a bit of place, I mean old 😅. The TWIG or Tilted Wig as I used to know it is still a good place, just not my thing any more. Can't complain about the service or cleanliness. If non-intrusive loud music is your thing you'll enjoy it.

Busy bar...good area of the town centre, not too busy

Open late not too busy. Good price, location and staff.

Not bad got chased up near 10 pm for closing time

Nice relaxed pub. Decent pint. Plenty comfy seats further through towards the far end or prop up on the chairs next to the window.

Visited with a group of friends for a few drinks and food. I was informed that the kitchen would close at 6pm and that there was a limited menu but didn’t realise how limited. The only choices were pizza or Chilli. We ordered three pizzas and a couple portions of chips. The pizza came out after 25 minutes and was cold and reminded me of the cheap £2 Asda own frozen pizzas which We paid £6 each for. I returned the pizza and it took another 30 minutes to come out again. Second time pizza was almost burnt ! Needless to say we won’t be rushing back. So disappointing as pre lockdown this was one of our favourite places to eat as had a fantastic menu.

Yeah I'd go back for sure its good to see these smaller pubs still open since the whole 'covid' carry on. Didnt try the food.

Overcharged, staff couldn't make drinks, martini and lemonade 🤔or brandy and ginger😢 they also complained about customers, won't recommend or be going back.

A late afternoon pint just to kill some time, nice cozy atmosphere, great music, not too busy, all in all it was great.

Was in at 4 pm drinks okay did not have crisps in stock and as for curly fries which was on menu but didn't have not much more I can say.

A great wee bar in the heart of Aberdeen , really good selection of beers on tap

Friendly staff and great bunch of locals, really made me feel at home since moving up

Friendly host "vinnie' nice bar for drinks and some lovely locals to chat with, no food at moment. Seating area outside in central position. Definitely return

Great food and drink and great service too. Chatty bar staff happy to help with drinks choices. Also available 241 deals on burgers, hotdogs and loaded fries is an added bonus for cost

Good food and a nice atmosphere. It has recently had a bit of a refresh.

Best place in Aberdeen for a few drinks. Good crowd and atmosphere

Decent clean bar with good selection of food and drinks.

Delicious burgers and hotdog, highly recommend! Especially with the deals! Service was great as well!

The specialty burgers are enormous! Great spot for lunch and a nice causal atmosphere.

Visited on Sunday for food and drinks with friends. Lovely friendly atmosphere, food was delicious with healthy portion sizes. Juke box was free which I think added an extra enjoyment to the evening. Highly recommend and will be visiting again very soon.

Enjoyed the casual atmosphere with friendly staff.

I went here with my fiancee for food. The menu was a good size with an option to make your own burger choosing from different options. I had one of their special burgers. In it had beef, chicken, bacon, black pudding, haggis and salad. It was a MASSIVE burger that beat me as I couldn't finish it. The portion size of our plates where large and the staff where great. A good selection a beer. When you come here definitely have a burger.

Small but always a fun place. Was there for a party.

Can must go on a Tuesday or Wednesday

Dark and dingy in the best possible way

On Thursdays it's the place to be. Great raft of musicians for the regular open mic

Amazing burgers and variety, unbelievable value on a Tuesday £5!!! The selection is second to none and portions would satisfy even the hungriest Texan

The best burgers in Aberdeen. End of debate. Plenty to chose from. Ive had them all and the scotsman is unbeatable.

Nice little bar but the owner needs to remind the "regulars" it is actually not their bar, unless of course, the corner is reserved for them. I've been visiting this place on and off for a couple of years. One particular guy, tall, wears a wooly hat sometimes, was mouthing about one of your punters the moment he left. Not very wise if you want to attract more customers and could be clearly heard the other end of the bar.

Food was good 👍. Became a bit noisey.

Used my spree book and got 2 4 1 on a meal so was good value and good serice

Thank you for the mutilater and hugh grant. Loved the music, it's nice you can add tips through card.

Very quiet compared to about 15 years ago.

Good night of open mic. Spoiled some by lady behind the bar being somewhat hostile in clearing the bar (though we perhaps lingered over long!

Cocktails cost £3.75 Monday - Thursday and thankfully not an overwhelming selection. Food selection was basic but good. if you wanted a burger you had a massive toppings selection like macaroni cheese, slow cooked shredded pork and many more all served with fries and slaw. Staff were helpful in places to go, eat etc. Worth a visit.

Went for girls lunch with 3 friends and it was fine. Plates of food were quite big but very nice. Service great. Had to change glasses as they were dirty and had lipstick on them but girl was very attentive and polite. They even presented us with our birthday teacakes with candles and sang happy birthday to my friend. I had put these in the day before. Would defo recommend and return.

Excellent food, service, beer and also dog friendly #SonnyTheStaffie

I have been here so many times for lunch and the burgers never fail to disappoint. The fact i can use my Taste Card here for buy one get one free on mains makes it even better.

Large platefulls of food not terribly clean place.

Good food, lovely staff. Can get a little cramped when it's busy, but what bar can't?! Decently priced food and drink too.

The friendliest bar staff in Aberdeen and dog friendly.

Hardly changed since 80s apart from name

Brilliant service, very friendly bar staff and even managed to cater for our last minute food request. The food was amazing as well ordered all the starters and they all tasted awesome! Will definitely be back.

Visiting Aberdeen and arranged to meet friends for a bite to eat in a 'dog friendly' bar! The Wig was suggested! Arrived just before 7.30pm there were 2 people sitting at a table and 1 at the bar ordering food. The waitress seemed to have a problem with the till and went for help. Another gentleman appeared from the back to help and at this point he looked at us and muttered something to her. She took the diners order and we asked for a table for 4 to be told the kitchen was now closed. 730pm on a Wednesday night 3 diners and a couple supporting the bar. With the recent oil crash i think they should be taking as many covers as possible. With this level of customer service I think they will be lucky to see the year out ! Went to 'The Illicit Still' over the road and spent over a ton on food and drinks with 1st class customer service and a bowl of water for the well behaved Seamus!

Beer selection is mainstream. Nothing fancy but decent pub

Great little pub with plenty of choice of drinks but lots of ales! I really like this pub because it can go from a chilled night one night to having punk bands playing and filling up half the pub on a different day. There isn't massive room when bands are playing but makes for a better experience.

Found this pub on the Meerkat 2 for 1 meals app. Not the smartest of looking places but friendly staff and good food. Cocktails were on offer they were excellent.

Pub avec télés. Bonne pale ale. Ambiance calme (entre 20&21h un mardi), fréquenté par les locaux qui viennent descendre quelques bières ou manger. Je me suis laissé tenter par un burger, le Balmoral, avec du haggis. Il était bon. Bien accompagné d’une salade fraîche (on m’a demandé si je voulais une salade ou des frites). Le truc que je n’ai pas compris, c’est l’addition... j’ai pris une pinte à presque 5 £ et l’ai payée, puis une seconde en mangeant avec le burger à 11£, et j’ai payé moins de 10£... cool.

Nice pub with a decent atmosphere. Plenty of tvs if you are interested in watching sporting events.

Great sports bar as the many screens are big; a bit sparse but sofas, it has sofas...

Top quality, having eaten there a handful of times now I've always been more than happy with the whole dining experience from the friendly staff to the tasty food. I highly recommend eating there.

Other than Brewdog this is my fave place to go in Aberdeen (admittedly only been twice ;p) - great people, beers etc and sponsors of the lovely Granite City Brawlers (roller derby team).

I enjoy this pub. Simply so. Decent selection of Ales that cover a wide spectrum. It's one of my go-to places in Aberdeen. Great staff, top service, and their Hot-Dogs are huge and delicious. Great assortment of Rum, Gin and Alco-pops. Nice!

When I go to Aberdeen football matches, friends enjoy heading here for pre-match food and drinks. Nestled on the edge of the city centre, its a much better option for a beer than Simpsons across the road. Good staff, pleasant settings and all round good bar to visit. Certainly be back as the food look amazing!

Best burgers in town - on Tuesdays only for £5!!!

Nice selection of food & drinks. Sports played to.

Great range if rum and a quiz on a sunday.

Great food. Really enjoyed my time here.

I was literally standing at the bus stop outside. Never went in.

Great burger menu with a massive selection of options including DIY with a long list of toppings. If you're looking for elegance you won't find it here but if you want great pub food at a good price, served by nice people then you can't do better.

Jenny was very polite and friendly and although new at the job had an obvious work ethic. Excellent customer service skills The chilli beef fries were delicious too

Love this place. Very friendly bar staff, lovely drinks selection and great food.

Amazing bar. Loads of rums and great food. Try the burgers! Accommodating staff and great location.

Football (and the other non-football sports) on loads of screens, pretty good beer and the food is awesome. Good pub

Very good live music on thursday. THX

Very welcoming pub with warm atmosphere & lovely staff. Had an excellent huge burger that was absolutely delicious. Good choices in menu including scumpious vedgetarian options. A great pub that would make a brilliant local.

Minging toilets should be condemned I wouldn't let my dog have a pish in their
