Situated around half a mile from the village across the busy A944, this pub was built in 2000. It has a large, rustic-style interior with plenty of nooks and crannies providing some privacy if preferred. Much of the pub is setup for meals, but a large area between the main entrance and the bar is reserved for drinking

The three Guest ales are generally from Scottish micros .

Very popular with families and an extensive food menu is available all day. Opens earlier than alcohol serving times for breakfasts.

The Premier Inn next door provides the accommodation for travellers.

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