Where to Eat in Aberlour: The Best Restaurants and Bars
Aberlour (Scottish Gaelic: Obar Lobhair), is the name of a town in Moray, Scotland, 12 miles (20 km) south of Elgin on the road to Grantown. A burn (stream), the Lour burn is a tributary of the River Spey, and the surrounding parish, are both named Aberlour, but the name is most commonly used in reference to the village which straddles the stream and flanks the Spey – although the full name of the village is Charlestown of Aberlour.

Myself and my partner stopped in Dufftown and found this little place near the Clock Tower. The menu looked really tasty and we were greeted very warmly by both a female waitress and the chef/owner. Really friendly staff on a quiet Friday lunchtime but it was quite nice that we had lots of attention. We had the mixed seafood platter to start which was delicious, and the homemade pie and calzone which were really tasty and so fresh. Anyone in the area should stop by!

We had worked up an appetite after a walking whisky tour and were rewarded by delicious, well presented food. Particularly enjoyed the haggis, neeps and tatties despite myself! Service was attentive and efficient.

I like the Chippie Cafe feel & Fresh Chippie Aroma of this place reminds me of a good Ol' Chippie Shoppe -- The Haggis Bites were a surprise, absolutely delightful.
The Fish & Chips were great, it was very fresh and perfectly prepared. Overall a good Cafe experience, I would return to try it again. Service was timely and friendly, I definitely recommend this as a great Fish & Chip experience.

We stopped at the malt barn for lunch based on a recommendation by our tour guide. The food was really good. Freshly hot smoked salmon and venison carpaccio were excellent choices. Staff was friendly and attentive. Highly recommendable!

We were passing and nipped in for a couple of rolls for lunch. The place looked very clean, the cakes looked good and the two girls serving were very pleasant. However all we wanted were two ham salad rolls to carry out. What we got were two rolls, one piece of boiled ham on each, a small amount of bland lettuce and a slice of tomato, plus some crisps on the side (we said no to the coleslaw) but at £4 a turn it was not value for money! A bottle of coke and a piece of lemon cake and it came to over £12. Think a price review is required.

Started with a couple of whiskey flights including one of Japanese whiskies. The bar manager was quite informative and interesting. He took much time to talk with us. We stayed for dinner afterwards which was quite good. Fish and chips was excellent and a huge portion. I would recommend

A group of five adults, we were delivered here by our guide while touring Speyside Distilleries. So glad we had the time and this is the location he uses. The food was amazingly good and served promptly. We tried the house burger- the Mash Tun, the chicken on baguette with red pesto & cheese, the beef and aged Cheddar on a baguette and the brie tart with beetroot. All were exceptional and very flavourful. Great value for your money, great staff...just an all round good place to eat that should not to be missed.
