North Pier Pocra Quay, Aberdeen, AB11 5DQ

With a stunning backdrop of views of the beach, fishing village and harbour, The Silver Darling is the place to be for seafood. No matter where your table is, your view will knock your socks off.

You can watch ships come into port, look out for dolphins and seals, and check out fishing boats bringing home the catch of the day – which could end up in The Silver Darling’s kitchen! It is one of a few restaurants to have been recommended in the Good Food Guide for more than 22 years.
