The best restaurants serving British food in Ellon and District Aberdeenshire North East Scotland

Best breakfast (rosti, peppers, parmesan, eggs..) on holiday to Aberdeenshire and surrounds. Refreshingly original menu with great coffee to boot!

I love this place and the staff. My dog and I always receive a friendly welcome. The food is fresh and prepared on request and tasty. It is in a lovely setting.

Wow …. let down by the restaurant today ! Had booked for a special lunch for a visiting family member for something nice! Service was poor at best and food …. Of our several choices nothing was left and this was before 4pm on a sunday…. After 15 mins (and a fairly empty restaurant) i had to ask someone to take our drinks ….. then after another 15mins had to ask someone to take our food order (of which several members of staff had walked past several times!) - in the end we left and went to a close pub - at least they were happy to serve and had options available …

Another great meal, great service. Highly recommend the New Inn

Good things : This cafe is in a great location and offers plenty of seating outside which is ideal for those with dogs. Not so good things : The coffee was ok although pricey for the size of cup. Cakes were nice enough, but had too much buttercream icing. Bad things : The layout of the tables inside is a bit congested. The volume and choice of music appears to be for the benefit of the staff because we, and those around us at other tables, to raise our voices to have a conversation.

This is becoming very much a favourite for us. We have started phoning the day before to reserve produce to collect the next day. We have a quick once round the shop to see if there is any new products to add to our order consisting of 1/2 lb steak pies for my father in law who just loves them, 1 lb steak pies for ourself along with apple crumbles, scones, short bread to a total of £78, worth every penny. Then we go into the restaurant for lunch. Both of us are soup lovers so we settled for potato and leek to start, then my wife ordered a g f ham and cheese toastie, I opted for a cheese and onion toastie with coleslaw on the side. To wash it down the wife had a cappucino, I settled for a diet irn bru. We were both well satisfied set up for the rest of the day. A worthwhile trip. Would recommend to anyone and will definitely be back.

Stayed for 2 nights and enjoyed it very much. Room was not huge but comfortable. Staff very helpful. Food and service all good value for the price. Will return.
