Pub in Aberdeen

“Nothing to complain except that the next table was a bit too loud but thank god they left earlier. ;) Reasonably priced quality pub grub. Nice deco and attentive service.”

“Enjoyed a couple of pints of Abbot Ale here. Nice friendly and comfortable pub!”

“Loved our visit to the Northern Bar in Aberdeen. Our server Sam made recommendations of food and drink that were thoroughly enjoyed. Clean pub, great atmosphere, food & drinks were affordable and tasty. We will be back!”

“My wife and myself hadn’t been in the Houff for several years due to working away we went in last night 19/09/2025 and it was the same great staff great food now we are back in town we will be a regular. Keep up the great work. Danny and Angie”

“We stayed for a weekend. Comfortable bed, very friendly service and a nice little pub with good food. Wonderful surroundings .”

“It's nice, rare that you can get two drinks for less than 10£ these days in Aberdeen. Had something for everyone if you know the right time of day/week to go.”

“WOW!!!! What a place. Best karaoke night I've had in ages. Best staff, Wendy and Kennedy treated us like royalty. Definitely would recommend for a night out and a quick pint. Jim is the best karaoke host, such a laugh and a flirt! You have to take a visit if you haven't before; the atmosphere and community are out of this world.”

“Had a boozy brunch. It was great, food was good and with a drinks included it's great value.”

“A lady fell off her chair and the lady behind the bar sat on the floor with her caring for her and making sure she was alright for ages. Was massively impressed by their care for their guest, what lovely people. I think this is a kind bar with warm lovely people.”

“Superb meal. Probably the best burger I've ever had, and a phenomenal range of beers, with abv ranging from 0.5% to an eye-popping 14.5%. My wife went for a selection of small plates and was equally impressed. The night we were in there was a DJ playing some great vinyl at a very conversation-friendly level. Staff were really chilled (in a good way) and genuinely friendly. The place feels like a real labour of love and hopefully it prospers for many years to come. If you appreciate good beer and/or soul food then we'd highly recommend it.”

“Friendly, local bar in inverurie. Great for a pint or whatever your tipple! Great bar staff and plenty on offer with numerous dart boards and pool tables. Go on a Saturday afternoon if you fancy a darts challenge. Very welcoming place to everybody”

“Nice social club recently refurbished. Friendly staff and good events, both in their main hall and bar area.”

“Rory & Ali delivered a brilliant experience from start to finish of our visit”

“Lovely local bar with friendly clientele”

“Best pub in Aberdeen - hands down. A great institution. Mu granda drank there 60 odd years ago, and my family and I have met many a friend there.”

“We enjoyed a lovely family meal here tonight, there were 15 of us. The service was very fast served by lovely staff. And our food was so nice, soup, main, and Haggis bon bons, and pudding, everyone really had a such great time. Big Compliments to the chef.”

“Very lovely place to go to. The new owners have really brought the dead bar back to life. It's fun looks amazing and the staff is super friendly (not the pretending as a lot do) always have my dog with me.”

“Lovely place I stumbled upon by chance whilst cycling through Aberdeen. Great coffee and food is decent. No complaints!”

“DJ'd here for the first time last month. Friendly staff and with the bar next to the dance floor, helped keep the party flowing. Check out videos from my weddings at this venue and others on my instagram.”

“Didn't have a room. Attended a function in the attached building. Strange set up being cash only for drinks. Bar was limited. Staff still learning ropes, but friendly enough. Food served looked very good although didn't have any as wasn't hungry.”

“The room could be done with a bigger telly... however the staff were amazing, couldn't do enough for you, especially Charlie and Ella, they made our stay feel very comfortable, a home away from home. Thanks to all the staff.”

“Absolutely perfect sunday lunch. Good sized portions everything cooked and seasoned perfectly. Tasty creme brule for pudding and tasty coffee to finish. Highly recommend, we will be back. Maybe for afternoon tea soon.”

“Stayed for 1 night as we took a drive along the coast Room was very clean and the mini bar was stocked. Comfy beds and nice bathroom. We had our wiener dog with us so he was given some water and attention from the friendly staff, we even stuck his bed under the table. Good to see some old school locals having a wee pint and chit chat at the bar, rarely get to see this now without folk staring at their phones all night. Food at the bar was superb, haggis neeps and tatties lovely, also mac n cheese and other bits and bobs. Great big car park Overall a great hotel which is well kept and not far from the beach etc Only point to add would be the room doors bang quite hard and you can hear every single one each time they close, I will bring my ear plugs on my next visit.”

“Love this pub. Great old school vibe and good Scottish beers on tap. Would recommend a pint or three when visiting Newmachar.”

“We had good portions shared just before closure time, better than in other places”

“Good bar, with a pool table, dart board and good drinks selection. Plenty of room around the venue.”
