The best restaurants in North East Scotland

Colin and Maggie are so welcoming at the Station Hotel. There is a great atmosphere in the place and it is very busy, the hub of the village. We had an evening meal which was excellent. Great choice on the menu, huge portions and everything came out piping hot. Great value for money too. Highly recommend and only wish it was in my hometown.

Great food with a good variety and all bases covered between more creative sandwiches and your 'basics' like ham and cheese. Fantastic coffee, freidnly staff and a lovely setting being in an old bank (with vault still in place!) Highly recommend!

This restaurant/hotel was closed for a while and this was our first chance to visit since it reopened. The service was excellent as was the food. Good restaurants seem to be few and far between nowadays. All we get are national brands, so its good to see an independent offering a great night out.

Ubicado en el corazón del centro de la ciudad de Aberdeen, Emesa es el mejor lugar para disfrutar de una comida mediterránea rápida pero deliciosa y original. La envoltura de falafel se cocina en el acto y es absolutamente deliciosa y las hojas de parra son divinas Los precios son muy razonables y el personal es muy amable y amable. Definitivamente deberías visitar!

Cafe noir was just amazing! I walked in with a kind welcome from the staff! Very friendly and quick with the order. The food was delicious. 5/5 experience!

My new favourite local! I’ve been visiting many locally owned coffee shops in Aberdeen and I have finally found my go-to. Not only is the coffee amazing (whilst being reasonably priced), the owner is by far the most welcoming and hospitable person I have ever met! Too top it all off it doesn’t close at 5/6 like most coffee shops in town.

The cakes were so beautiful and tasty. I've never tasted cakes so nice and their hot drink selection is amazing. They should expand and get a bigger place!

You need to find your way through a chemist's shop and then upstairs - but it is worth it! We stopped for the soup and sandwich deal; a bowl of hot home-made soup, thick with lentils and chunks of bacon and a chicken mayo sandwich stuffed full and with salad and crisps. Delicious and a bargain.

Best pub in Aberdeen , super friendly staff and the drinks are fantastic. Great selection to choose from wether it’s whisky or a nice Guinness.

Stopped by for lunch as was working nearby and colleagues had recommended for breakfast before. Ordered the double cheeseburger to keep it basic for a first visit. I cannot oversell this place and its owners. Without a doubt the best burger I've ever tasted, and I've had a few. I will go out of my way to grab lunch from here again. And I want to try breakfast from them too now. Unbelievably good quality

Last order of the day served by a chatty, polite and ever helpful Mel. A pie which was great, pastry was firm and tasty, with a chicken and skirlie filling that was mmm. Also had a fresh made salad sandwich, best bread I've had. I'll be back.

Visited Betty's a few times since moving to Blackburn last year. We love this place! Great pub grub food, always tasty food and decent portions. The Sunday roast is honestly the best I've ever had from a restaurant - meat and trimmings cooked to perfection! The staff are always lovely too!

The best cakes and coffee in Aberdeen. Great service :) Perfect taste and consistency of cheesecake and delicious coffee.

We dropped in for lunch and were pleasantly surprised. The gentleman who served us was very friendly and keen to ensure we got exactly what we wanted. The food was delivered reasonably quickly and was fresh, hot, and tasty. I also had a friendly chat with the gent when paying the bill, and he told me how I could get in touch with Jimmy Buchan, one of my heroes. This was really appreciated as I met up with Jimmy, which was fantastic. .....thanks heaps.
