The Auld Kirk in Ballater, Aberdeenshire, United Kingdom | Restaurant

Welcome to The Auld Kirk Restaurant, Ballater, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, United Kingdom. Sensitively converted in 1986 to a small hotel , The Auld KirkRestaurant, Ballater has built a reputation for good food, comfortable accommodation and a warm welcome that is the hallmark of Scottish hospitality.
A programme of refurbishment was commenced in 2006 and The Auld Kirk was re-launched as a ?Restaurant with Rooms? to more accurately describe the emphasis placed on the provision of fine local food and the scale and high standard of accommodation offered.
We are happy to discuss the individual needs of customers and, wherever possible, will tailor our services to satisfy your requirements.
At The Auld Kirk we take food seriously. We aim wherever possible to provide the best of fresh, local, seasonal produce cooked and presented with care.
We avoid prepared, processed and frozen food and therefore keep our menus relatively small. In addition to using the best of Scotland?s larder we are keen to use traditional Scottish recipes, giving them an appropriate contemporary twist. Whilst we are serious about our food, we believe that eating should be a pleasure. We are therefore happy to vary dishes (where it is possible) to suit the taste of our diners, we do not have a dress code in our restaurant and we will do our best to cater for customers with special dietary needs.
