Balmoral Castle - Speisekarte

The restaurant served food worthy of a Queen's castle. Very good and not overpriced. Something for everyone on a varied menu.

Although we arrived late in the day, the cafe still had some fresh entries available which were delicious. It was affordable and clean. Great place to grab a bite to eat while visiting Balmoral.

Balmoral castle is well worth the drive. It is clear why the Queen goes here to get off the grid. The estate is magnificent and the castle is nice without being too opulent. Don’t miss the river walk and if you love dogs check out the pet cemetery.

The venison cottage pie was divine not salty but very tasty. It was recommended to us by our ranger and he was right.Braised carrots were great and you had a choice of three vegetables (one or all three)Later that day the afternoon scones with jam and cream were brilliant

Fortunately we had the opportunity to stay in one of the cottages on the estate. There are many wonderful hikes throughout the grounds and plenty of activities for the whole family, especially those with dogs.The staff treated us like family and we were so sad to leave. We are really hoping to come back again someday.

The grounds of the castle are beautiful. The audio tour guide gives you some interesting snippets about the history of the grounds and various buildings and locations such as the garden. Given that the castle itself is used by the royals, you're not permitted access to the castle itself bar one room the ballroom. The grounds outside the castle permit for some extended walking and you can easily spend close to half a day here if you did want to walk a little further.

For sure you would expect high standards at this premier residence and you get them. Well organised from booking on-line some thought given to Blue Badge Holders and a excellent visit. The Gardens are well laid out and the Walks superb and the Pavilion worth the visit. The Food service was slow but not impossible and a very good range in the Gift shops. The Place is reeking of History from the times of Queen Victoria and the mind boggles at circa 190 years of Heads of State and Prime Ministers visits to this place. For sure a humbling but enjoyable experience

If you would love to see the real Scotland then go to Balmoral and stay in one of the cottages. Don’t just see the castle and gardens. You can actually stay on one of the cottages when the royals are not in residence. Stay in the royal hunting lodge and see the red deer in the field in front of the cottage. The cafe is great food, for local flavor try the cottage pie. Desserts are excellent. Look at the gift shop to take something home from Balmoral. The staff are very friendly. Take a ranger safari tour to see more of the Balmoral castle property. Guided walks with the rangers show you the stone cairn memorials.

Went for our first lunch at the Balmoral Castle restaurant today friends had been and said that the food was nice but the venue was really 'posh canteen ' and they 're not wrong! A little more styling in the interior could transform it into less of a cafe style place although it was very pleasant on a sunny warm day.The service is superb and the staff have clearly been trained very well other Aberdeenshire restaurants should take note! Nando, our waiter, was friendly and attentive and really very pleasant. The food was really lovely and well cooked but I felt like the chef needed to think about presentation John Torode would have pulled him up! The broad bean fritters with beetroot humous we...
