Cafe At Aberdour Castle

This charming cafe offers both indoor and outdoor seating with wonderful views. They have a wide variety of cakes, coffees, and cream teas to choose from. The service is very friendly and efficient.

DO NOT visit here if you are a wheelchair user. Yes it’s a castle and I’m aware it’s old but it’s virtually impossible to get in the cafe if you use a wheelchair. There is a step in and steps once you’re inside. Both...would be accessible if a ramp was provided but it appears the folk in charge of this establishment don’t want the custom of disabled people. As I struggled to get in with my disabled father, a man who obviously worked in the cafe stayed inside the kitchen behind a closed door. I’m not suggesting he help me but a friendly word or acknowledgement would have gone a long way. Don’t bother with this place. Try the cafe in Shore Road as it’s accessible!

If you are lucky, you will be greeted by the wonderful aroma of freshly cooked cakes and gingerbread. One lady is in charge of the tearoom but she works really hard to provide soup, sandwiches and cakes for visitors. There is a small fridge which...holds a good range of Mackie's ice-cream. The actual tearoom is down a few steps and not very large. A huge dresser which I really covet dominated the room. Prices are very reasonable.

The serving area is via an open internal door next to the eating room if that makes any sense ? small room with a handful of tables and sturdy wooden chairs one larger table has a backed bench for seating ..perhaps better for a family. One slight minus is that there is not much scope for movement if perhaps you need more than one stick to get around and can't see you getting a double buggy inside. Hot chocolate recommended and the raspberry and white chocolate muffins left me so full that I did not need any evening meal this is a compliment not a complaint well a bit of toast much later in the evening. also numerous other appetising bakes to choose as well next time !

I had the gingerbread cake and an Earl Grey tea, so gooood! They also had other cakes and sandwiches.
