Lorne Bar in Aberdeen

Ah, let's chat about the Lorne Bar – or is it The Scottish Embassy now? From what I've gathered from the reviews, it's one of those unpretentious pubs that just gets it right for a laid-back evening. The staff stand out as absolute gems; they're chatty and make you feel like a regular from the get-go, which is always a treat. Pair that with a cosy atmosphere where you can actually hear yourself think over a pint, and you've got a solid spot for nattering with friends. The prices are fair too, especially for a decent beer or ale, and it's smack in the middle of things near the stations and shops, making it super convenient for a quick stop. On the downside, though, there haven't been many fresh reviews lately, so it might not be buzzing with energy like some trendier places. It does have that locals-only feel, which is lovely if you fancy a traditional vibe, but could come across as a bit quiet if you're hoping for a lively night. All in all, if you're after a reliable, no-fuss pub for a relaxed catch-up, I'd say give it a go – just keep an eye out for that name change!
