Require Disabled Access?
Until 5pm, normal access to our Bistro is via our delightful garden entrance and through the Deli. However, this does involve some steps.

Wednesday & Thursday Closure
We currently close on Wednesdays and Thursdays, but now we can offer the facility of our new ‘Deli Cafe’.
Occupying our ‘gallery’ area overlooking the gardens, the Deli cafe offers delicious hot drinks, cakes, and small deli plates.

Our Pooch Policy!
DOG-FRIENDLY RESTAURANT IN ABERFELDY
As dog lovers and owners, it would be shame if we didn’t welcome dogs into our Deli & Bistro. However, we do strive to create a more intimate atmosphere for our evening diners. Therefore, we allow well-behaved dogs, kept on a lead, until 5pm, after which we prefer people only! Please still mention that you are bringing your dog when you book, even if you are well within the allotted time.
