The Queen Vic in Aberdeen

Ah, The Queen Vic – it's one of those pubs that just hits the spot for a good night out in Aberdeen. From what I've gathered, the atmosphere is spot on, with a real sense of community that makes you feel right at home, whether you're catching up with friends or watching the footie on their big screens. The staff are absolute stars, always up for a chat and going the extra mile with things like drink samples, and it's fantastic that they welcome dogs, adding to that relaxed, inclusive feel. On the flip side, it does get busy at times, especially on weekends, so you might end up jostling for space, and while the drinks are spot on, the food side seems a bit of a mystery since not many have raved about it yet. Overall, it's a solid choice for anyone after a traditional pub experience – I'd say give it a go if you're in the area, as the positives far outweigh the minor niggles, and you'll likely leave with a smile.
