A small, friendly basement bar situated in the heart of the city centre at the west end of Union Street and reopened on 1st October 2021 after a refurbishment following a long term closure during Covid pandemic. It is easy to find, look out for the Bandsman clock above the now, sadly, closed Bruce Millers music store.

The Howff now has the licence for the large, expansive formerly Draft Project at the rear, now renamed Motif and with a separate entrance next door and off .

Two handpumps were installed in November 2022 and ales vary between Landlord, Burnside and various other Scottish ales.

Information for this venue is provided by the Aberdeen Grampian & N Isles Branch of CAMRA
