Upmarket Bar and Grill in a cellar of a very grand street.
Irish themed pub that promotes sport, live music and banter.
A food and sports bar downstairs, with exotic girls and pole dancing club upstairs.
Bar and event space with own-brand range of craft beers.
Restaurant and bar which is open to the public even though it is the club house of Newburgh golf club. Lovely after a walk on the nearby sand dunes to watch the seals.
Surprisingly large pub in Peterculter where darts is played. Handy stop and a trivial detour if cycling the Deeside railway line.
Pub on The Green, used to play darts, now closed.
Spacious, family-friendly pub-restaurant with cosy fireside area, smart restaurant, function room and a charming conservatory with views of old water-mill and garden. Unfortunately, the handpumps have been removed with the publican now desiring to run a restaurant and not a pub.
Traditional harbourside inn. Occasionally has one handpull, most recently reported October 2019.
Bingo, line dancing, and various community activities. Bar with no windows where pool and darts are played. Members only, but there has never been a problem getting signed in as a guest to play darts.
Oldmeldrum Golf Clubhous, just up from the Redgarth.
Milton On The Corner is primarily a restaurant owned by the team from Milton Brasserie in Deeside. Standing on a prominent corner of Beechgrove Terrace and Midstocket Road at the top end of the Rosemount area, this former Bank of Scotland premises was re-fitted and opened in early December 2017.
A stylish place to drink cocktails, but unappealing to the average CAMRA member.
Beer served in front bar but can be taken through to the lounge and also take upstairs to the hotel restaurant. Keg beer from Orkney replaces cask when there is insufficient trade. Over 1000 whiskies and 160 gins available.
Independent bar and lounge located in Portlethen.
Hotel with Diner, Front Room Restaurant, Lounge Bar with live music, Ballroom and Conference Facilities.
Sadly, no longer sells any real ale. A long standing outlet, it has undergone many changes of ownership and the ale quality had been declining in the last few years, possibly due to less people drinking there.
Parkvale Social Club is open for members and non members. Pool, Darts, Dominoes and jukebox. Function room available to hire. Bar upstairs and lounge downstairs. Bingo and live entertainment every weekend
Difficult to find estate pub hiding off a lane from the Balgownie Road. Look for Shri Bheema's Indian Restaurant next door. Darts played.

Golf clubhouse.
