“Old fashioned”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012

I would let you know something about this beautiful place: a warm atmosphere is the first course at The Old Mill!
Tartans , fireplace and a Viking influence welcomes you ...aperitifs? Why not! The owner prepared us a good " Rob Roy"( not in menù ...); many tipical startes waited for us but I choosed a fantastic "Scullen Skink", the most delicious I ever had (price vs quality ...OK!! ).
Continuing I had a Scottish grilled meat , rich in quantity and variety(Haggis,pork rib,sausages,...) ...with a large side of tatties.
Two pints of Amber beer for enjoying better the dinner! Coffe at the end.
The bill was £33,5 each.
Be advised there are many differents options as fish,meat,soups at the "Old" as junior menù for children.
So, what are you waiting for?

“Amazing!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 August 2010

person found this review helpful

I really had to write a review to praise the staff at the Old Mill Inn on the amazing service that we received both in the run-up, on our wedding day, and after, in May 2010.

Vic is outstanding. He can't do enough for you, is unbelievably well organised, and does everything he can to ensure that your day goes without a hitch (other than the important one that you're there for!)

I really can't praise this venue highly enough. The food was outstanding, all of the staff were so friendly, the whole day ran like clockwork, and we are still, three months later, receiving very positive comments on the day.

I could write a novel on all of the services provided and how delighted I am, but the easiest way to sum it up is to say that there was no area at all of the entire day that the Old Mill Inn could be faulted on - without doubt, the staff were by far the most professional, helpful, accommodating and numerous more positive adjectives (!) of all the suppliers I spoke with regarding our wedding (and there were lots!)

I am so delighted that we chose the Old Mill Inn for our wedding - we have so many very happy memories to look back on, and could not have chosen a better venue.

Thank you so much to Vic and all the staff!

“Great Food - Good Atmosphere”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2010

Surprised to find no recent reviews of this Hotel. We didn't actually stay here but came for an evening meal. Athough there was a wedding reception taking place, the entourage, guests etc were in a totally separate part of the hotel so we didn't feel as if we were intruding. The food choice on the menu was First Class ... we both started with the filo wrapped black pudding & apple ensemble which was la substantial & tasty starter. My partner went on to have a well done steak with all the trimmings which was well presented and very well received . I chose the salmon teryaki on a noodle base & this dish was totally mouth watering. The pudding was a delight as the Old Mill would appear to be one of very few hotels who know how to make Scottish "Cranachan" properly .... just the right blend of raspberries, cream, oatmeal etc set off with a nice chunk of home made shortbread. We asked for 2 coffees and were peased to be given a well sized cafitiere between us & accompanied by home made Scottish tablet. All in all a faultless meal, great service & very reasonable prices ..... we've already booked for next weekend (Valentine's!). We are well used to eating out in Aberdeen & Inverness & the Old Mill Inn is well up on our list of favourite places ... defintely worth venturing out of the City Centre & we both it was much better than some of the most expensive restaurants in Aberdeen City

“Wedding at Old Mill Inn”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 May 2007

person found this review helpful

We got married at the Old Mill Inn on the 16th June 2006. We want to let you know what a fantastic day they provided for us, and seeing that there is nowhere on there official site we just thought we would write on here. They cannot do enough for you, the food is fantastic, myself and my husband Gary would recommend anyone to hold there wedding here, the package deals are worth every penny. Staff were very friendly and we would just like to say a big thank you to Victor who kept everything running like clockwork. The rooms were perfect although the only problem we found was that we had both sets of parents either side of our room, big mistake. Thank you again for our wonderful day and please stay here when you can.

“Good...as usual”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 March 2007

I stayed at The Old Mill again this week and can report that normal service prevails...ie. clean, comfortable room, good food and compared with central Aberdeen hotels, very good value.
The Old Mill is approximately 6 miles from the city and is in a very pleasant rural position next to the River Dee.
I shall stay there again next time I am in Aberdeen.
