The best restaurants in Aberdeenshire North East Scotland

As part of Eat Out Aberdeenshire, we decided to go back to the Davron for lunch as it has been a while since we visited. Grey dreich day made much better by the warm welcome upon entry. Comprehensive menu for the Eat Out scheme. Decided on Cullen Skink and battered Haddock, chips and peas. Can honestly say the Cullen Skink was one of the best versions we have had, creamy and full of fish! Thoroughly enjoyed the haddock and chips, a great bargain at two courses for £15 each. Certainly a visit to the Davron made a grey day feel all the more brighter. Many thanks.

We arrived around 1.30pm on Hogmanay. I tentatively asked if they were still serving food after a very negative experience at the Bridge House Cafe just prior. Fear not, the Brown Sugar Cafe staff could not have been more welcoming, friendly and accommodating to our party of 7. We received exceptional service throughout our time there. The food was lovely and the coffee amazing - especially their amaretto lattes! We can't thank you enough for the positive experience we received that day - thank you! We will highly recommend and look forward to returning soon :)

We stayed for a weekend. Comfortable bed, very friendly service and a nice little pub with good food. Wonderful surroundings .

Lovely spot for brunch/lunch. Really colourful plates of food, lots of options and the coffee was great. Chai latte was spot on! Cakes and bakes were good - magic is really in the savoury dishes!

Best ice cream in Lincolnshire we love visiting here on the way back from the seaside it's lovely with lots of seating too

Food was absolutely beautiful and staff were super friendly

Lovely plump white crunchy battered fish.. And chips are great too.

Such a great spot to stop with kids. Not only do they have great coffee, and yummy food, they also have a beautiful view, and a play ground for children. It was just what our family needed on the long drive to Dingle. We are so happy we stumbled upon this gem.

Had a lovely stay. Room was clean and spacious. Great value for money with a lovely breakfast included. I stayed with my two children who are under 10. Our room was lovely and quiet. We slept well. I would recommend

So pleased this place was open during the quiet season. I've never passed without stopping off some some food. The staff are lovely and on my visit before this one, I was on the motorbike and I was experiencing the British summer.....sheltering from the torrential rain the time passed by quickly thanks to a friendly fella manning the gift shop and some nice food. This time I just made it in time for a full breakfast - very welcome after being blinded by low level morning sun all the way from Inverness then dodging the ice in minus 6 degrees C once I hit the ski roads. Bloody marvellous! proper sausage, the black pudding was really tasty and everything was hot. I managed to bag an extra fried egg after many apologies from the lady serving me that the chef had managed to burst my yolk twice so they put both on as an a sorry. I ordered a black coffee which was one of those espresso machine jobbies I really hate for their harshness but this was pretty god. I didn't realise they did cafetieres until the very well spoken gent on a nearby table asked for one! Next time then. Love this place, makes the dreadful quality of the roads seem worth it...in such a remote area it's a gem and the prices are good, too!

Beautiful takeaway for two on Saturday night. I recommend the Chicken Korma (mild and sweet) and Chicken Madras (fairly hot) with Naan bread and steamed rice. Lovely onion and mango chutney with papadams too.

Have been meaning to go here for sometime as we don’t live too far away. We were very impressed with the quality of food, I had a bacon cheeseburger and my wife had a tempura poke bowl. Both were delicious and cooked perfectly. Staff were friendly and the pub was cosy and traditional, just the way we like it. Price was also very reasonable. Would definitely return.

Wir wollten hier Tontaubenschießen und man hatte uns dieses Geschäft empfohlen. Als wir ankamen, waren nicht viele Autos vor Ort. Wir bekundeten unseren Wunsch, doch sollten wir uns erst mal setzen. Nachdem noch andere Menschen kamen, und sich auch bei uns hinsetzten, passierte lange nichts. Erneutes Nachfragen von unserer Seite, man solle noch warten. Am Ende kam ein geschwätziger Mann, der sich zuerst mit Leuten unterhielt, die nach uns gekommen waren, und als er sich endlich uns zuwandte, erklärte er, dass er keine Kapazitäten mehr hatte. Diese halbe Stunde Warten war vollkommen unnötige Zeitverschwendung. Guter Kundenservice ist definitiv anders.

Vino aquí para un almuerzo ligero a mitad de semana. Sopa para mi acompañante y una tostada y café para mí. La sopa estaba buena, así que "un poco delgada" (a mi compañera le gusta la sopa GRUESA). El Toasty and Latte era genial, y la mayor queja que podía tener era el brillante sol entrando por las grandes ventanas significaba que las persianas eran bastante bajas, estropeando una excelente vista. Sí, brillante sol en un diciembre de Aberdeen. Lo sé, fuimos bendecidos. El personal era encantador. Estaría muy feliz de volver.

Great place for a coffee. Fantastic setting, cosy and comfortable, friendly staff, great coffee and reasonably priced- highly recommend
