Called in for lunch after a walk around old Aberdeen and Seaton park. The place was immaculate. There was a good selection of drinks and food. Our waitress Leah was great friendly and helpful. We had crispy cauliflower bites, the mini grill which wasn’t mini and onion rings. The food came out quickly and we’ll presented.
I am not exaggerating when I say I was disappointed after visiting 7 to 8 restaurants from Google search and local recommendations in the Highlands just in search of traditional haggis all the way to Aberdeen and finally my wish of eating traditional "haggis neeps and tatties" finally came true at Brig O'Don. This place is a hidden gem. The place is huge and spacious, quiet ambience, clean and the staff is very friendly and respectful.
Yayyy!!! Being a foodie, I love traditional cuisine, I can now say my trip to Scotland was complete. 😎😍

Very happy with our visit tonight. Our complements to the chef, the food was all amazing and our server Hamish was absolutely fantastic. Very professional, friendly, and great with our kids. Hamish went above and beyond to provide us top quality service from start to finish. Great selection on both the kids and adults menu and all reasonable priced. If your looking for somewhere to have great food, a lovely atmosphere, professional service and affordable prices then I highly recommend Brig O'Don.
My kids said they give it a 10 Out of 10 👍😊
We are looking forward to coming back for another family meal out.
Many thanks
Great menu, though service can be a bit confusing.
We loved the diversity of the menu and each loved what we chose to eat - and it was such a relaxed environment that we stayed for coffee and dessert!
The only slight confusion is between table service vs going up to the bar to order. The latter definitely worked, but they 'd have to update their attentiveness if taking table service seriously.
Really impressed with the service here. When we arrived we were shown to our table and asked what we would like to drink straight away. Drinks came quick then ordered our meal which was also out quick and delicious. Veronica was our waitress and she was excellent. Very attentive, lovely happy personality and made sure our drinks were topped up. Thoroughly enjoyed our meal.
Excellent food and great staff. Loved the burger and steak ciabatta.
Place looks better than you imagined from the outside.
Busy place as we had to book ahead.
Quite spacious, and very polite staffs.
Though starters took time to arrive, but the meal in general was amazing.
We enjoyed staying at Al and Carols hotel. They are new owners but were great hosts that were welcoming and wanting to please guests. We also ate there and the food was delicious. Would definitely stay there again when next in Aberdeen.
First time visiting Brig O’Don to try their Sunday roast! The waitress who served me (I’m sorry I forgot her name) was really nice, polite and attentive as she took some time and effort to give me some options for specific drinks and alternatives available. I tried the lamb shank part of the Sunday roast, it was really lovely! The lamb was really tender and the other parts of the dish was cooked really well and they were very generous with their gravy. The environment and deco in the pub was really nice and suits the Christmas vibe at the moment. My only feedback would be that the drinks menu was slightly dirty and it was not clean. Definitely worth visiting!!!
In many ways typical of it's genre - a family eatery. Good menu and tasty food at a reasonable price in pleasant surroundings.
Where it really proved itself on a positive basis was the staff. We had a disabled member of our group who is very conscious of their verbal communications problems. The staff had lots of time for them, the table waiter in particular could not have been more patient and empathic to their needs.
GREAT hospitality! Though they actually didn’t have room for me, which was fine, they found a way to get me a table. Food service came with recommendations on which steak to order, thanks! The steak wasn’t really warm, but since I ordered it “bleu”, that’s acceptable. Tasted very good though. Thank you guys for an amazing dinner! Even though it was clearly a busy night, you still made me feel welcome and served me great food. Thanks 😊
Ended up eating here 2 nights in a row on our holiday as it was difficult to find somewhere for a party of 11.
They couldn't have been more accommodating and friendly. The food was all perfect and came out really quickly even though there was a lot of us.
We can't thank the team enough.
Due to personal circumstances I had to book to eat out on Xmas Day for the first time. The Brig is the closest pub to me so made sense to go there. No need to drive so for once I could have a couple of drinks.
The menu was made up of four courses. After eating and enjoying the first two courses, there was a slight disappointment in that there was no regular cream available to go with my choice of Xmas Pudding. I've never been a fan of brandy sauce and the other options given did not appeal, so I decided to go without. In fairness, I was pretty full after eating the main so every cloud etc.
At the time of my booking it was fairly quiet, though was starting to get busier when I left. I get anxious in places that are too busy so was glad to leave when I did. That's not a slight on the Brig O'Don. The food was lovely, the staff very friendly - I finally put (masked) faces to names - and I spent a pleasant few minutes chatting about football with one staff member.
The visit helped make a difficult day a little more bearable. There was also an incredible gesture made by Brandon when I booked that I am eternally grateful for. Such kindness towards a stranger shows there are still decent people in the world.
Fish and chips are delicious. The fried haddock is massive and it can be shared for 2 people if you're not really hungry. The hot chocolate tastes really classic, worth a try.
Very friendly and welcoming staff, food was great. It is also dog friendly. Highly recommend.
Had a really lovely meal here last weekend, food was cooked well and we were served really quick. Decent price, well worth it. Last time we came here a few years back the food wasnt great so glad we gave it another go,
