The Flying Stag

Such a warm and cozy setting, along with a beautiful stag-adorned bar. The food was delicious and service was outstanding, attentive, and cheerful. It was a great first night meal during our stay at the Fife Arms celebrating our anniversary. Despite being from the USA we felt right at home. I wish we lived close enough to make it a regular stop at any time. Looking forward to the day we can return.

I had a drink at lunchtime, and then in the evening, I returned with my wife and our dog for dinner. It was great that at the end of our week in Braemar that we finally got to see inside the Fife Arms and The Flying Stag. Staff are friendly, polite, but not pushy. Hope you have a good year.

We’re visited the Flying Stag during the Braemar Gathering time. They were busy so a reservation was recommended. We were seated on your upper level in nice bog throne like chairs, very comfortable. The staff and manager were friendly and helpful. I am on the Keto diet and did not want to be a pain and wondered if they could accommodate me. They sure did. I had the steak sandwich without the bread… salad instead of fries and a lovely portion of spinach. It was may partners birthday so a piece of cake and candle magically appeared. Loved the wine and beer and everything. Thank you for a great experience.

Ate here last night, service was fab and the food was great. Partner got the fish and chips which looked decent and I had the rarebit to start and the beetroot. Both super tasty, beetroot salad isn’t huge if you’re really hungry though! 😁 None the less, lovely food, would happily come back. Staff were great too!

Superb hotel... Well worth a visit, lovely atmosphere, didn't feel rushed to leave, and Berties whiskey bar is an absolute must....

Braemar brilliance. Imagine the best pub grub in Scotland wrapped by a historic and intensely homely hotel where the warm smell of burning logs hits you when you enter. Scandi minimalist this place ain't - it's like a sledgehammer of Scottishness. Dark gloomyness, open fires, random yet coherent pictures scatter the walls. Tasteful tartan and Gillies everywhere. Beautiful, in good taste, yet properly functionally furnished to face the elements. Like a 50s landrover. We love this place. Many others love it too so booking is mandatory. You will not be disappointed.

Best haggis I’ve had in Scotland. Also tried the fried chicken as an appetizer, and my wife had the fish and chips. Everything was amazing. Highly recommend!

Great spot for a reasonably priced lunch. Wonderful decor and even better service. I had the Haggis, Neeps and Tatties and my wife had the fish and chips. Both were delicious. Dont be afraid of the Haggis; it's delicious!
