What ZarZar210684 doesn't like about At Loch Kinord:
After a 5 hour long drive, myself and my husband dined here for the convenience. I had the duck orange noodles, which was rather tough to cut through and even burnt as you will see from the pictures. My husband had the chicken and haggis mash for which he found there was not enough chicken and wasn't too fond of the haggis. View all feedback. What PFluffyworld likes about At Loch Kinord:
In these unusual times, the restaurant offers a limited menu with drinks and scones only, which is understandable given the situation. After a lovely walk around Loch Kinord, it was a very welcome treat. The restaurant has reassuring COVID safety measures in place and the staff are very friendly. The freshly made scone was delicious and we were able to enjoy it while sitting socially distanced in the garden. Overall,... View all feedback.

Nestled near Aboyne, this hotel-restaurant offers a unique blend of charm and mixed reviews. While the atmosphere can feel somber and service occasionally inattentive, the culinary experience shines through. Diners have praised the remarkably well-prepared dishes and extensive wine list, despite some challenges such as limited access and inconsistent menu offerings. The warm welcome after a long journey has left a lasting impression, complemented by delightful scones and hearty meals. With a few adjustments, this quaint establishment has the potential to elevate its reputation and become a must-visit destination for food enthusiasts and travelers alike.
