Old Blackfriars

A child friendly pub serving food with Sky TV and a garden in Aberdeen.

In the cobbled pedestrian area outside Old Blackfriars, they used to hold public executions. It was where people rose up with a cry of 'Bon accord' and saw the end of Aberdeen Castle in 1308. Over the road, the Tollbooth has been the site of civic administration since 1398. That's why the moment you enter this atmospheric pub, it's like stepping back in time. With its two levels, low-beamed ceiling and ecclesiastical fittings such as stained glass and church pews, it makes you feel as if you're sitting alongside several centuries of drinkers. Loved by locals, families, shoppers, real ale drinkers, tourists and, allegedly a ghost or two, Old Blackfriars is a must-see destination - and then a must-see-some-more.

Drink % Brewery
Dark Island 4.6 Orkney Brewery

Dark Island is an iconic beer: a standard-bearer for traditional Scottish ales. In cask, this beer has twice won CAMRA’s Champion Beer of Scotland

Tasting Notes: Exhibiting a ripe fruity chocolate nose, Dark island is balanced by flavours of dark chocolate, dried fruits, figs and nuts.

Deuchars IPA 3.8 Caledonian Brewery

Distinctive and long on refreshment. Solid gold in colour, remarkably aromatic, hints of fresh citrus, distinctive light malt and fresh floral flavours, refreshing zesty citric hop, for a mouth-watering finish.

Tasting Notes: Distinctively radiant, deliciously refreshing, Deuchars is a fabulous balance of malt and hops. Discerning beer drinkers consider this to be the benchmark in quality cask beer and for those new to cask, it's the perfect introduction.

Jarl 3.8 Fyne Ales

Light and golden colour with a strong citrus and hop aroma. Citrus and grassy hop flavours dominate the palate with a light and refreshing dry finish. A superbly drinkable beer.

Tasting Notes: Citrus, refreshing, dry
