The Highlander Cafe Bus

Had an amazing lunch today. The staff are always friendly and the service is great creating a very welcoming vibe. My second time here was by no accident and I'm sure there will be many more visits. The pork belly burger is delicious and so was the double decker cheeseburger. Would highly recommend every time.

We had driven up to Aberdeen on a customer delivery for the gallery and having a little spare time we did our usual trick of using Google to find a ‘cafe near me’. This fabulous bus was one of the offerings on the Google list and seeing as we love something different it was an obvious choice! The bus is fab! Bright red and hard to miss, parked right on the beachfront! It has an excellent menu and the prices are really reasonable! We’d had no lunch having been driving all day, so we opted for the 6oz steak burger with a side of fries, it was excellent! Really tasty and proper skin-on fries too! We had a coffee with milk and also a tea and the whole bill was just shy of £20 which we felt was good value! You can get anything to take-away but we sat in and upstairs there are stools with a window view, or train-style sets of 4 bus seats with a table. They even had seatbelts still attached! All inside seating is upstairs so there are the traditional bus stairs to get up but the handrail is good and strong! The views out to sea are fabulous. You can see the wind farm and all the big ships coming in to and leaving the port. The view along the coast is very pretty and the promenade walk stretches quite a distance. Today was sunny and bright with a nice breeze and there were plenty of people but it still didn’t feel busy. There are no toilets at the bus but if you walk along the road towards the lighthouse end then there is a big white building with good clean public toilets. We really enjoyed our short visit to this part of Aberdeen, it felt very relaxed and not rushed and that’s exactly what you need from a short break on a long road-trip! Thank you everybody! Great job!

So different ... yes, we had a coffee morning catch up on the bus. It was a Fun surrounding, great service, very polite professional staff. The food served was good. No toilet facility on the bus but they're situated closed to public toilets at the foot of Dee ( Fittie). It was a pleasant experience and very popular.
