Jaffs Bar Restaurant - Aberdeenshire

My dining experience at this restaurant was extremely disappointing. The waitresses were inattentive, despite having only three tables to manage. They would disappear and then reappear, ignoring guests in the process. Dietary restrictions were not taken seriously, and overall, there was no redeeming quality to justify the long drive to dine here. I would not recommend this restaurant. Instead, choose establishments that prioritize customer service and do not treat patrons as if they are a nuisance.

I visited this restaurant on a rainy Saturday for lunch. I ordered the soup and sandwich combo, which was completely homemade and came with a choice of bread for the sandwich. The menu offers a good variety of meal options.

Sadly, the first time I’ve ever left a negative review. Visited recently with family. When we arrived we were pointed to our table and after sitting for 25 minutes, we didn’t even have a drink in front of us and still waiting for the kids menu. Only 2/3 other tables there. decided to get up and leave. Won’t be back.

The food was served cold and we had to request the waitress (who only returned to clear plates and bring the bill) to ask the chef. We were informed that the heat lamp was not working, and no alternative offer of hot food was made. It is disappointing that a hot meal was not provided, especially considering the standard. The fish goujons were cold and unappealing for both of us. With better communication and customer service, this restaurant has the potential to be a great dining spot.

Cold restaurant, half cooked dried up food, put back to the kitchen, to be told chef forgot sauce for one meal. Would take it off the bill!! Awful, second time there and first time wasn’t much better. Definitely will not be back
