Staff were very friendly. Food was delicious. Only disappointing part was a loud party next to us so difficult to have a conversation at times but overall a very pleasant meal

Excellent food. Pity they were half way through a menu change. Would have preferred the customers to have been spread out a bit more through the restaurant instead of all put together in a corner near the window as there were plenty tables available

The Venue was very quiet for a Saturday night, but I have nothing bad to say, the quality of the food and portion size flwas fantastic. We had 3 courses but weren't uncomfortably full. Value was good. I don't mind paying a higher price if the quality is good. Certainly be back.

Decent food, decent experience and decent staff. There's a dead tree in the middle of the restaurant. It's a bit quiet but okay. Price is alright, although they add the tip on automatically to the bill, which I don't like. My steak was so so good and flavourful, the haggis Poutine was pretty good.

They aren’t very accommodating No half portions of the Sunday roasts for kids Won’t provide a bit of both meats on the Sunday roasts High service charge automatically added to bill without being advertised Menu doesn’t state easily what is vegan/GF so you need to work two menus if you are intolerant to both

Excellent food, price and service. Unfortunately we were sat among a couple of loud nousy groups. A quieter table for 2 on the other side would have suited us much more as there was availability there.

Great food and helpful service. Temperature a little cool, and quite noisy at times with a large party sitting just behind us. We'll be back, perhaps when the weather is a little warmer and will aim to be more selective on the seating, if need be.

Food was very pub-grub esque. Not what I expected for the price point and the reviews I’d read regarding good lunch spots in Aberdeen. Staff were attentive but for the love of all that is holy, try on the heating ❄️

Food as always was fantastic but experience was dulled by slow wait time and having to pay for sides for mains that used to come with accompaniments included in the price. We were at the restaurant for 2 hours and in this time had 2 courses which is excessive and although the wait staff were nice they kept forgetting when we asked for things. Really disappointed as this was one of our favourite restaurants.

Delicious food, attentive friendly staff. Restaurant week deal is fantastic value for money. One tip - if you want a pudding don’t choose a snack before your starter as the portions are huge. Will definitely be back.
