Me and my friends call Stonehaven ''the village''...
and every Sunday we always go to the village for our soup! It is a tradition that has not been broken for the last two years and I do not see something like that happening in the near future.
The Marine Hotel, is the place that we go every weekend, to have a salmon skink. The best and most tasty soup that I have ever had in my life. Creamy, and tasty, it is being served in a fresh bread bowl and it comes down your throat easily. In combination with chips (that you need to tell them to be well done, as they are quite chunky and some times they come raw in the middle) and a portion of garlic bread, your tummy will be full and you will be pleased...I guarantee for that!
Friends have told me that the risotto is also really good. Prices are very good, and the boys that run the place are the kindest of all. What I also really enjoy is that they take their time when you ask for the bill, so that you can actually get some more time to enjoy your time there. The decoration is warm and cosy, and it has a fireplace that during the winter is on, making our stay there a wonderful experience on the cold and wet days of Aberdeenshire. read more
