RossP Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 Can't believe no-ones mentioned the Howff yet. Wee downstairs place next to Bruce MillersSome of the best food in aberdeen, excellent background music (think Alice in Chains was on last time I was there), massive screen for football, lovely decor, friendly staff - with one girl who was stunning, not sure if she works there any more though.And Tilted Wig is a close second, with very similar reasons as the Howff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paranoid Android Posted November 18, 2005 Report Share Posted November 18, 2005 Upstair's at O'neils is 4 on Fridays and 5 on Saturdays. Half Price for students. It does usually seem to only get busy for the last couple of hours though. It's definitely my favourite club in aberdeen. Dancing on tables is always fun.I also support Kilau as a good coffee shop and the globe and the howff as good pubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tranny Danny .5 song Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 as long as it serves drink...I agree, the Howff`s a really good pub if you just want to go for a blether and a dram with a mate or two, Estaminet`s good like that aswell, perfect for a sunday hair of the dog.For live music, I used to enjoy sitting at the bottom bar of O`Donohues at about 5 having a pint and watching whatever acoustic players they`ve got on at the time. smashing.
