Rothesay Rooms

Rothesay Rooms-serving coffees and cakes, brunch, lunch and afternoon tea Wednesday to Sunday.

Rothesay Rooms is well worth a visit, whether you are here on holiday enjoying the many sights and activities in the area or simply passing through.

We are open Wednesday to Sunday 10am to 4pm for coffee and cake, brunch and lunch and a traditional Sunday roast during the colder months.  For that special treat we also serve traditional Afternoon Teas between 12pm and 2.30pm (24hour advance reservation required).

We offer a daily changing selection of home baked scones and cakes served with our Birkhall blend coffee by speciality roasters Roaring Stag of Ballater and uniquely hand blended award winning teas from Twist.

A Tribute To Scottish Flavours
We work closely with our suppliers across the whole farm to fork journey. Our chefs are closely connected to their local suppliers and farmers, sourcing the best in fresh, seasonal, Scottish produce.

Our menus include Glen Muick venison, Aberdeenshire Angus beef, Grampian Eggs, reliably sourced Scottish salmon and award winning speciality cheeses from the Scottish Highlands and Islands.

The Café is set within the Old Royal Station, with plenty of seating in a bright and airy relaxed atmosphere, with a replica of Queen Victoria’s royal carriage and the royal waiting room, beautifully decorated with wood panelling, period furniture and stained glass windows.
