It was a Sunday evening and the first restaurant we tried required bookings. The bartender recommended Badenoch’s. It is much larger than it appears on the outside and the staff was very helpful and friendly.
Our waitress checked with the kitchen about food issues (3 of us do not eat pork).
The drinks were tasty as my wife and daughters enjoyed the specialty drinks. We had a variety of plates-the Satay was juicy and tender, the fish and chips were flavourful, the sweet potato fries were really tasty. The only so-so dish was the onion rings, but the Venison burger was served hot and required no condiments. We would definitely come back while in Elgin!
Absolute beautiful food, everything was prestigious including the service and love to come back again
This place is great! I highly recommend anyone to go there! Atmosphere is great and the staff are really friendly and you can tell making the customers happy is their main priority. They have a wide variety of lovely drinks to suit everyone. The food was delicious and well presented as always. I look forward to returning here again.
Can’t fault the food, service or the staff. Best sit down meal I’ve had in Elgin for along time. Myself and 5 others ordered all of the small plates, and other dishes, all were superb. Friendly staff. The bill was extremely reasonable. All 6 off us will be returning.
Visited in the afternoon for a few drinks and a bit of food. The service was a little slow as the manager was on his own but his service was really good. Food was great only reason its 4 instead of 5 was one meal wasn’t correct first this but very quickly rectified
Good food and great service. The menu isn't massive but has enough selection to satisfy. The food was of a good quality and surprised me, all I expected was a pub grub meal and honestly the food is better than some local dedicated restaurants.
The food here is really good much better than 'pub grub' . My husband had the three small plates for £20. He said they were absolutely delicious. My haddock and chips we're perfectly cooked and probably the best I've had anywhere accompanied by creamy, minty peas and tasty tartare sauce. The staff were friendly and efficient. We would heartily recommend a visit.
Great food, staff were excellent greeting us on arrival and widhing us a great night on departure too. The drinks were good too. Brilliant location in the town centre.
Ordered food, came relatively quick. The presentation was top notch, even Gordon Ramsay has been real quiet since Baddies re-opened by the main man Nate and his partner Ashlyn. The staff members are all legends, very polite and knowledgeable about their job and what they are serving. The food was 11.5/10. Would comeback in a heartbeat.
What a gorgeous spot. Even on a quiet Monday, the place had people coming and going all evening. Popped in here, not expecting much but I must say the salt and chilli chips are next level. The Flirtini is delightful and the servers are attentive but friendly, no coldness or standoffishness. The setting is gorgeous too. Next time I'm here I'll be back.
One thing to note is possibly putting some vegan mains as one halloumi burger for a lactose intolerant person meant starters and sides instead of a main. Otherwise beautiful place
Very good food (we enjoyed a fish and chips and a 10 oz rump steak, with chips), very good wine (two large glasses of Italian Pinot grigio), a luxurious dram of a 15yr whisky and, last but not least, very good music at the correct volume to accompany the conversation. Total satisfaction is the result.

Great place to meet friends or a romantic tryst in one of the more intimate booths that are available .
Food is excellent and staff are friendly and helpful. Situated on the main St of Elgin not far from the town square.
Not the most obvious choice for a wedding meal venue but the staff were awesome!
No two years to plan a wedding here. It grew from 2 witnesses in a Registrars to a kilt wedding with 10 guests in under a fortnight. Everywhere was booked up for food but Badenoch's could make space for us and luckily all our bunch love street food so that's where we went.
We hadn't been there before or knew what to expect. The staff had dedicated an area and let us go in beforehand to decorate and leave the cake etc.
We were pleasantly surprised when the food came in cartons but it is billed as 'street food' so we could have guessed. It all added to the fun and uniqueness of the day.
Izzy was fab. She could see we were enjoying ourselves and extended our reservation time so we didn't have to rush. She was super attentive and friendly and became a memorable part of the celebrations.
Thanks again
Nice place for a drink. We sat in the garden which I think might be a bit of a work in progress but lots of space and tables. Food was OK, friendly, efficient service.
