Castleton Farm Shop And Cafe

We visited the Cafe for coffee and cake today, the place was packed which is usually a good sign! We ordered 2 cappuccinos, a banoffee pie and lemon meringue pie. When cappuccinos arrived, the waitress spilt one all over the saucer and no replacement was offered, a napkin was presented for us to wipe it up! They were watered down white coffees with no foam! The banoffee pie, well where do I start. The toffee sauce was only around the outside of the pastry and the case was mainly empty give or take a few small slices of banana. The lemon meringue pie had barely any lemon sauce again an empty case and very dry. Overall very poor and that’s not the first bad experience we have had here. There i...

This once great cafe has unfortunately taken a nose dive. Price increases are now so steep that the quality of food and service no longer aligns. The scale of operation has also meant that the level of service has fallen significantly. Examples being waiting 40 mins to order ice creams, going to desk to order and then being told its table service! 40 mins is not good table service. The long waits for service are now consistent over several visits. Every visit it gets a little bit more disappointing and we must surely be close to our last visit.

Travelling between Inverurie and Haddington we have seen the sign but never managed to call here. Today that changed. Despite the very heavy rain we found this restaurant. Staff were welcoming, friendly and efficient. Our grandson had a cheese and haggis panini with salad. I had a brie with cranberry sandwich and salad. My wife had soup with oatcakes. All the food was nicely presented and of a very high standard. There is also a farm shop. This restaurant is a bit off the main Dundee/Aberdeen road but it is worth diverting.

During our journey to Aberdeen, we decided to stop at this restaurant to charge our car and grab a meal. I highly recommend this place for several reasons. The staff was friendly and helpful, the service was fast, the food arrived promptly and was incredibly tasty. The Cullen Skink soup was fantastic, and the sausages and mash were deemed the best meal my partner had tasted in a while (and we were on holiday, eating out frequently). Additionally, the prices were reasonable for the quality of food we received.
