Ma Camerons
The snug bar at the front of this popular city-centre pub is the oldest in Aberdeen, dating back 300 years, and the warren of adjoining rooms makes it one of the most cosy and atmospheric. Full of nooks and crannies - not to mention the rooftop beer garden (aka 'Aberdeen's best-kept secret') - it appeals to a mixed crowd, from mothers with pushchairs to live music fans, parties, real-ale drinkers and football supporters. Sitting in this friendly bar with your Belhaven Best, Schiehallion or Lia Fail feels like you're part of an ancient Aberdonian tradition, going back to the original Amelia 'Ma' Cameron who took over the business in 1937 and back further to its days as the Sow Croft Coaching Inn. Here you can meet friends, make new ones or tuck into the pub-food classics like generations before you.
