About Old Blackfriars

A lively city-centre spot in Aberdeen that works well for a mixed-age group — the sort of place where a toddler and an older child can both find something they'll eat, thanks to a kids' menu and gluten-free options. High chairs are on hand, so you don't need to bring your own seating solution, and step-free access means you can get a buggy in without a fight at the door. There's outdoor seating too, useful when little ones need a bit more room. It's noisy in a friendly way, which is forgiving if your children aren't quiet — and booking ahead is worth it.
