The best restaurants serving British food in North East Scotland

Good proximity to the town and the bus station. Room was clean. Doona on bed was super hot. No ac or fan, too noisy with window open. Great breakfast.

Come here quite often but last twice a bit disappointed this time drinks came first and had to wait ages for sandwiches ,so coffee was done by the time it came on the plus the bread was much better this time didn’t taste stain

Been here many times coffee and sausage rolls were lovely only complaint I have there was very little left not much choice at 2pm

👌A very wonderful hotel with a very wonderful location in the middle of the city, close to everything.

This is one of the best places for an evening meal in Ballater. At times, it is best to book because they are so popular with locals and visitors alike. Fish, seafood, meat and chicken are all beautifully cooked and the service is quick and friendly. Fiona and Fergie go the extra mile to be helpful. Nothing is too much trouble and the food is always delightful.

Incredibly rude staff. Spoke to customers horribly. Appear angry to walk a few steps to deliver drinks because of the inconvience. For an unfriendly visit I recommend.

I have eaten here a few times over the years, but unfortunately this will be my last visit. We booked ahead and were fortunate to get a window table with a lovely view of the cliffs and harbour. The staff were friendly and efficient and our order was taken promptly. The menu has a good selection and I decided on fish and chips. The prices are possibly a little higher than I have encountered elsewhere and this wouldn't be an issue if you felt you were getting value for money, but I don't think is the case. My meal was tasty enough but more care with presentation would definitely make the diner feel they were getting a meal that matched the cost.

If you're looking for a solid fish and chips after an exhausting morning schlepping around stone circles, derelict castles, remote waterfalls, and glacial rock formations, then I'd thoroughly recommend this friendly and warm inn. Succulent haddock and crispy batter, perfect fodder to fill you up before your afternoon nap at the Airbnb.

Update 28th April 2023. Ive just eaten what was one of the worst fish suppers ever. Dripping in fat to the point i now need to get a bottle of coca cola to break the fat down. 12.50 for a large fish supper! Only thing large was the amount of chips. The fish looked as though it was anorexic. I will never be back. Shame as it once was really good but alas times have changed and the quality is no longer there.

Excellent roadside venue, friendly efficient staff, good quality coffee, excellent variety of cakes and scones, well stocked shop to browse through.

Very busy but lovely staff and quick service once we were seated. Lovely bacon rolls and side order of chips, really nice lattes

Swung by the drive through and ordered a buffalo chicken wrap and hunters chicken wrap. Both were delicious, loads of flavour and great quality. The chips portion was huge. Came to around £17 which is not bad for the quality and portion size. We could have shared one between two of us really. Recommend the drive through over going in to eat as this would have cost £16.95 per wrap if eating inside, which is way overpriced. We went in for some cheesecake too and honestly, the best cheesecake I’ve ever had (tablet / white chocolate raspberry). The have a fantastic menu including a breakfast menu. Some thought has really gone into it and the food is excellent so I do highly recommend for a drive through.

Fantastic food expertly prepared and served. The venison was to die for . Our favourite place to eat in ellon........ ..

Staff seemed disinterested. Food was below average .whats with cheese on the menu and plastic rubber in the food, The coffee was straight oot o trough....worst fluid i have had in decades.

Fui aquí con mi amiga y mi hija. Sólo otro cliente (alrededor de las 12 pm del viernes). Sin embargo, la comida era deliciosa y se sirve tostado y rápido servicio amable! ¡Muy impresionado! !
