Nestled just before Aboyne, John's Kitchen, affectionately known as the White Cottage, is a delightful gem serving a variety of home-cooked meals. Guests rave about the exceptional fish and chips, notably the double-fried, crispy chips and succulent fish. The warm and welcoming ambiance, coupled with attentive service from John and his team, enhances every visit. Diners appreciate the beautifully presented dishes and the inviting atmosphere, making it perfect for both casual lunches and special celebrations. With homemade ice creams and a diverse menu, this charming spot promises a memorable dining experience that keeps patrons coming back for more.
