The Saltoun Inn

I had poached egg on toast followed by chocolate fudge cake with ice-cream! Enjoyed both. The atmosphere at the time of day was good and quiet! There was plenty of empty tables available! We were served quickly by friendly staff, yes will be back.

Moved to Fraserburgh in August but hadn't eaten out anywhere other than the Wimpy until today, when I visited to sample the Xmas Menu. The price was £19.50 for a two course meal or £22.95 for three courses, so not wildly over-priced in this economic climate. Had the Jingle Bell Beef Burger with brie cheese, cranberries and stuffing. The burger was cooked well, was a decent thickness and the toppings all worked well together. The chips were your big standard frozen fries, which was a shame really. Does no pub hand make chips anymore? Could have also done with a salad on the plate too in order to add some colour. Not disappointed with it, just constructive criticism. My second course was Xmas Pudding. I don't like brandy sauce so they were happy to serve it with cream for me. I like Xmas Pudding most of all the Xmas food so devoured it quickly. Again, one slight bit of constructive criticism is that the pudding would have looked less lonely on the serving plate if it had been served in a bowl instead. Taste is what matters most though! Drinkwise I had a Cruzcampo lager. Not had it before but would drink it again. Came in a very nice branded continental style pint glass. The Saltoun Inn itself is nice inside. Of course the festive decorations were still in situ and as it was busy there was a bit of wait for my first course. I don't mind that and understand it when it's busy. The staff were friendly and I would eat there again.

Visited for food as one of the few places open in Fraserburgh. Not sure what chain it was part of. Both ordered burgers, they did 't quite get the order right as I wanted salad and no coleslaw but was given coleslaw but no salad. Fortunately it didn't spoil the meal too much food served hot. Was tasty enough. Staff seemed friendly and most importanly it was reasonably priced.

We were aware that this establishment had changed hands from a chain to a family firm and were keen to see what it was like. It was quiet when we arrived and it is a locals pub with restaurant definitely but we were made to feel very welcome indeed by the two members of staff. The room was clean and the decor was lovely with everything we needed for our stay. Next, we decided to have our evening meal here and it was the right decision as the two burger meals we had were delicious, very reasonably priced and were so filling we had no room for dessert unfortunately. All in all a perfect stay!

Went here for lunch with my partner. It's very much a local pub for local people, so much so that they serve the locals before outsiders, no matter how long you have already been waiting. The food was ok, a panini is basically a crusty baguette, although it did taste ok. Prices are reasonable, too If you're ok with the staff prioritising the locals, then it's worth a visit.

We knew the hotel had very recently changed ownership to a family firm and their aim of quality at reasonable price is perfectly balanced. Our first stay and won't be last. The room was huge and very comfortable with all usual amenities. In the centre of town and parking is paid parking right outside. The dining experience was just as amazing. The dining room is nice and good atmosphere. The staff were friendly and attentive, with nothing a trouble. Then the food came ... wow the portions were plenty and quality was amazing.. the fresh Fraserburgh fish just crumbled. A credit to the new owners as they have only taken over in last 6 weeks but you would not notice it was 5 star.
