The best restaurants in Mearns Aberdeenshire North East Scotland

We were among the first customers on the sunniest day in one of the North-east's bonniest villages. Staff were busy cleaning an already-sparkling restaurant, but everyone took the time to get us a great table at the window and our every request was listened to carefully and fulfilled perfectly. We had two different kinds of breakfast and - not that we were looking for this - could find no faults whatsoever. Well done that chef! I think breakfast is one of the most difficult tasks for a cook as so many things need to be just right. Well, they certainly were. My companion was impressed with the size of the teapot for one person. We've been here a couple of times in days gone by and it never disappoints.

The visit we had to here was lovely! Atmosphere was amazing. The servers and locals were very nice. The food and drink you could not fault. Definitely making this a fav spot

This is a perfect stop off on a coastal walk from St Cyrus to Inverbervie. We had coffee and my son chose a rocky road cake to refuel.

Really great choice. Service and food were great. My bacon and brie sandwich with chilli James served with crisps, salad and a wonderful coleslaw was just really tasty and filling. Toasted cheese and ham sandwich made to order looked great. Pea soup was really good. Just a great stop for a really posh sandwich lunch ( prices reflect that it's.more than just a sandwich shop - so that's fair).

Came here for Sunday lunch whilst visiting st Cyrus for the weekend after seeing the reviews of the Sunday roast. Waitress was friendly and the food arrived piping hot and the portions were huge! The roast beef was so good just melted in the mouth. The sticky toffee pudding and custard was so good aswell and all reasonably priced. Would recommended and will be back to try more of the menu when in the area.

Wonderful wee place, well worth a visit if you want to buy a delicious takeaway lobster or crab lunch. We bought small tubs of lobster salad, it was so tasty and fresh, and they were only £6 each. It was our favourite meal of our holiday. There are a couple of picnic tables outside, if you want to eat beside the small harbour. You can also order online for collection, they sell amazing seafood platters. They sell some nice gifts too. The Lobster Shop is not too far from St Cyrus Beach, if you are looking to buy a picnic.

Oh it was absolutely incredible seriously, the fillets are so tender and the chips are full of flavour. The staff are very helpful. Defo Scran It. Proper ding dang do. Only fault is the prices, but its still a defo scran it.

Great Sunday roast Aberdeenshire roast rump of beef Yorkshire pudding veg and roast potatoes also half roast chicken with skirlie Hugh portions. Home made apple pie and custard fantastic.

We came here for a meal to celebrate our engagement and had 3 courses each plus drinks. The food could not be faulted - compliments to the chef. Staff very friendly and great service. Lovely atmosphere. Will definitely be back!

Very nice place to visit , a good range of items in the shop.Cafe staff very friendly and chatty. Coffees and cake were served quickly, cake was very nice, coffees were excellent ,definitely will be back

Travelling between Inverurie and Haddington we have seen the sign but never managed to call here. Today that changed. Despite the very heavy rain we found this restaurant. Staff were welcoming, friendly and efficient. Our grandson had a cheese and haggis panini with salad. I had a brie with cranberry sandwich and salad. My wife had soup with oatcakes. All the food was nicely presented and of a very high standard. There is also a farm shop. This restaurant is a bit off the main Dundee/Aberdeen road but it is worth diverting.

This overnight was a quick stop for us as we got in after dark and left early the next morning. Our accommodation was an apartment across the street from the restaurant. It was very comfortable. The people were very friendly at check in and when we had any questions. The apartment was a nice, large space, a little dated but comfortable. Parking was right next to the building in the square. The bathroom was well lighted and had plenty of storage area for our personal products. There was a washing machine in the unit, but no electric dryer. They did provide a drying rack and had space heaters. Overall, it was a great value and stay!

It's a great spot for a cafe with wonderful views. Staff are helpful and attentive, the food is good. It's nae cheap but that's to be expected given the location.

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.

We stayed in lodge not far from this hotel and after reading that our host recommends this place for a meal we decided to give it a go in our last night.Food was delicious and portions were really generous. Thai green curry was outstanding, lots of flavour and nicely presented. All staff were super friendly and nice.
