The Clachan Grill

A warm welcome in Royal Deeside

Located in Royal Deeside the Clachan Grill occupies a converted steading in the centre of Ballater, providing a tranquil and comfortable dining atmosphere right along the River Dee. With pristine views, cosy dining, and quality Scottish fare we’ve proven a hit with locals and visitors, alike. Our bar area, now home to our sister operation Angus & Ale, offers the same inviting style as our restaurant – a wonderfully warm setting to enjoy more casual dining and great craic with friends and family (dogs are very welcome in the bar too!).

As one of the CranberryCo clan, we pride ourselves on serving only the finest locally and sustainably sourced produce. Our Head Chef has carefully designed the Clachan Grill’s menu to reflect the diverse ingredients Scotland has on offer, drawing inspiration from Scottish classics, while elevating them to the level of a modern Grill.

Having been renovated after the flooding of Storm Frank our wee restaurant provides a cosy and unique environment to try some modernised Scottish Classics, with a side of Highland hospitality.
