Wow, am I glad we chose this place to grab lunch. It was dark and raining, flood warnings everywhere, we were some of the only foolish people to be out!
It was their out door fairy lights that won the decision for me if I'm honest. Not knowing the town at all it was a case of a lucky guess with where to eat, and I'm so glad we did.
The place was deserted! The staff seemed delighted to have something to do. Not the businesses fault...as I mentioned...flood warnings! Actually the next day Banchory was closed :o
Now, I grew up on the coast, and I think this might be the best fish and chips I've ever had! My goodness! The thick batter was just out of this world, and the handout chips, while sparse, where utter perfection.
The deserts were also remarkable. Although I think the blueberry cheesecake won, on taste and decoration. Blueberry sorbet! A new thing I now need in my life on a more regular basis.
The staff were delightful, chatty and helpful. The decor was quite upmarket with some wonderful prints of highland cows and deer on the walls.
I am so pleased we stopped off here before heading home, I can't recommend it enough :D read more
