The best restaurants in Banff and District Aberdeenshire North East Scotland

We are now regulars at the Seafield Arms as it is so good. It was my birthday and where else would we go for a special meal. This time, we tried the surf and turf block. We were not disappointed as the seafood and steak were cooked to perfection. As well as the fresh local vegatable selection. The hotel manager had to get up at 4am to get the lobster. That is dedication to perfection. Our friend had a sirloin steak, cooked to her satisfaction. Our daughter had the mac and cheese and was more than happy. The girls finished the meal with sticky toffee pudding and creme brulee. Yum Yum. The service was professional and very friendly. We have a concern, what will we have to eat the next time as it is all so good.

3 of us had the breakfasts and one had a toasted cheese and red onion sarnie, teas coffee and toast. Everything was very nice, bacon could have been cooked longer and broken/chipped tea pot should be replaced but thats just our opinion. We will definately be back.....yum!

1st time visiting since its on our doorstep and must say we was not disappointed!!! Lovely and cosy very bonnie however it is small and some tables bit close together. Wee hidden gem of banff! Located in the pharmacy above the post office side. I got soup and a panini ! Soup was delicious. Panini was chicken cheese and chorizo, the chorizo was abit too thick and chewy for me would prefer thin slices. I did request no tomato on my salad (2 out of 3 panini salad no tomato) however mine arrived with tomato so i couldnt eat the salad simple mistake made. Service was very friendly and decent size plates decent speed of service and decent prize cant go wrong! Will definitely be back. Didnt have room for dessert so need to come try!

By far and away the very best Beef Stew I have ever tasted. The decor might be a bit dated, but the food was excellent. The after-dinner coffee was drunk in the lounge, which was decorated in the style of a Scottish country house.

Crispy battered Haddock n Chips Yum Yum fat tum. Future golf trips will be using Freddies in Banff rather than Wetherspoons in Fraserburgh. I usually send an e-mail review of our golf trips including best and worst Golf Courses and best and worst food to all places we visit. Unfortunately I cant find Freddies e-mail to tell them they were voted the best.

Please ask for large curry sauce ( probably cost more ) as they give u a very small.pot like macdonalds for your meal sadly gone down hill in last while

Amazing food, friendly staff and dog friendly too! The first visit by my wife and I and it definitely will not be our last.

Have been here a few times. came across it by accident and it is an amazing wee cafe. Have tried coffee and scone ( amazing), baked potato ...very good... and all day breakfast which filled me up until bedtime!! xxx

Myself and my husband had lunch today.It was fantastic! The cafe is lovely Maltese themed and the staff are so welcoming and friendly. We both had a Maltese ciabatta followed by a Maltese almond cake and was just superb!its not just Maltese food there is a good selection of menu and breakfasts.Will definitely recommend and will revisit soon x

Great takeaway that does deliveries, food was always piping hot and prepared quickly, very central location.

Chicken Kebab was full of flavor. Best kebab in Banff, hands down.

Have ordered from here a few times while visiting the area. Last night ordered a Lasagne with another dish. The Lasagne was stone cold in the centre and not edible. Had to share the remaining meal which was OK. On complaining was told a refund was not possible although to be fair was offered an alternative - but it was too late for that. Personally I would not use in the future.

Had a lovely meal in a fantastic traditional pub with a lovely atmosphere. Food was exceptional & staff were very attentive. Highly recommended & will definitely be back. Thanks 😊

Great food. Massive portions of well cooked tasty food. Inside eating is more of an afterthought tho. More of a takeaway

We had the most amazing afternoon tea experience in the Bubble. We can't praise the Banff Springs highly enough. This was a mini 'hen party ' and so much thought had gone into making this so special for the bride to be. Beautifully decorated, Beth and her team looked after us so well. The quality of the food and drinks was outstanding. A lovely afternoon was had by all. Highly recommend! A big thank you to all involved!
