I love that they have a full vegan menu, makes such a difference when eating out locally. Food is good, overall the place is really affordable and staff are all really friendly. Only downside is that it's a popular place and can get a bit noisy when having a conversation over dinner, a minor inconvenience really!
My battered fish was lovely and had that creamy quality you get when it has been cooked perfectly. My wife enjoyed a lasagne.
Always visit when up staying with my parents. It's a highlight of my stay. Lovely staff that are always up for a news. Always busy and would definitely recommend booking. Food fantastic and all the family go away vowing they don't need to eat for a week. Favourite eatery in Ellon.
We needed somewhere for dinner after a long day out exploring Scotland as tourists and luck put us in the vicinity of Ellon, where our family have long touted The New Inn as one of the best places to get Haddock and I surely was not disappointed. We called ahead to make sure the kitchens were open on the 2nd and the staff could not have been nicer both by phone and in person. My wife had the Sunday roast beef special and it was plentiful and cooked perfectly. We will certainly make it a regular stop when we're able to visit the area again in the future!
Simply excellent meal , huge variety on the menu , great service from the young staff and really tasty food which was very reasonably priced , We went on the mothers day weekend and the restaurant was packed which is always good to see , I had the steak fajitas and they were sensational .We live in the area and now wonder why its taken so long to come to the Cornkist but now it will be a regular visit
Another great old eating place from my past. Very enjoyable lunch, excellent steak and ale pie. Wonderful service and attention from the staff, one even said she recognised me even though I'd left the NE 40 years ago. Well worth a visit for anyone looking for an eatery on the road. Highly recommended.
Pleasant, friendly atmosphere. Great food choice on the menu. Tasty, well cooked food. Good service.
Another great meal at The Cornkist! Great to see the place busy and doing well. We had an early (6 pm) Saturday evening meal here as later times were fully booked. Great service and friendly helpful staff. Fish & Chips all round, but I had the butter baked instead of the breaded or battered options. Very nice, the haddock was cooked perfectly.
I'd recommend the Cornkist to everyone, but book ahead - they really are busy, but can cope. Great spot. Remember to check out the fish shop over the road if you can!
I always love the service here. I felt very special as the waiter was courteous and made such an effort to ensure we knew he would serve us shortly and, most importantly, he did.
Service excellent as usual, food was very nice, bit noisy as there was a 21st birthday celebration lunch on the Thursday we were there.
