Lovely bar, warm and friendly. I had the shredded chicken with sweet chilli sauce and it was amazing, I devoured it, very tasty. We had quite a few drinks and a jug of cocktail too. I was only £40 for my meal and lots of gin and wine the toilets were a bit messy, a towel was on the floor in one of the cubicles. However the outside space was nice, lit up, heaters and sofas too. Very friendly and welcoming and will definitely be back.

This is the place to be in Buckie, host lovely managed to find me a seat . Food exceeding expectations, everything else in village was junk food. Steak in stroganoff fantastic, a lot of meat , not just panned with veg. And the locals so friendly, sorry to the girls on the next table who I couldn’t over hear … yes it is the place to be 5* whisky choice great and not overly priced

Dog friendly we were in need of a decent cup of coffee and even though they had a private function due to start in 45 mins we got a delicious coffee and a bowl of water for Riley in the beer garden. Staff were polite and accommodating would recommend especially if you have a dog.

The wife and I have just had another fantastic meal here. I have to say, normally the food served at any place looks nothing like the advertised pictures, but here it absolutely does. Full of colour, full of flavour and fresh ingredients. Definitely our go to place for a meal. The best food in Moray by far.
