What Scottish Traveller doesn't like about Laird's Kitchen:
Elderly person who served us had an utterly bizarre attitude which was off putting and we won’t return. The lady came over to us and said absolutely nothing no hello, no how are you, not even “what would you like?”, nothing! She walked over to our table and basically just looked at us. Me and my partner looked at each other a bit confused yet reeled off our tea/cake order anyway. The whole experience was very off put... View all feedback. What User likes about Laird's Kitchen:
we were here for a week for the birthday of hubby. absolutely loved it total setback for us away from each and all (including technology). great walks. we love Scotland and everything it has to offer. we will definitely book here in the future and take time to look around the castle View all feedback.

Nestled within the historic foundations of Delgatie Castle, the tearoom offers a unique dining experience steeped in charm and history. Patrons delight in the cozy atmosphere, complete with antique decor and home-baked goods. While the quality of the food—ranging from homemade soups to delicious cakes—receives appreciation, the service varies significantly. Some guests highlight unfriendly staff interactions, overshadowing the otherwise pleasant ambiance. However, many visitors recommend the tearoom for its value and inviting setting, making it a noteworthy stop for those exploring Aberdeenshire's heritage, especially for families seeking a memorable outing. Overall, it’s an intriguing blend of flavors and history.

We had a wonderful lunch. Everything was freshly prepared, and that was definitely testing. An absolute rapist to go here.
