Characters Cafe - Aberdeen City

We popped in for breakfast and we are so glad that we did! The owners were so kind, personable and great chat. Very welcoming and were genuinely interested in both of us. We can't fault the food either, and the coffee was the best we've had in recent memory! All for extremely reasonable prices too. Lovely wee place tucked away from the busy city centre, well worth the 10 minute walk to the quay. Whenever we come back to Aberdeen we shall definitely be coming back to visit :

Superb coffee and choice of cakes and food. Immaculate place and the owners are really friendly. Highly recommend the place

I recently visited this restaurant for the first time and I will definitely be returning. The coffee was tasty and the homemade baked goods were gorgeous. I also enjoyed their selection of craft gifts. The staff were very friendly and welcoming.

We were wandering down to explore Footdee and then along the esplanade, wishing we'd had a coffee first, when we came upon this lovely wee coffee house. The folk were very friendly, the coffee excellent, as was the lunch. There was a good choice of freshly made food too. Would definitely return if back in Aberdeen.

The owners pour their hearts and passion into ensuring customers have a warm and welcoming experience. They offer homemade scones, a daily soup special, and a wide selection of sandwiches and paninis that are a step above what you typically find in a chain coffee shop. The cozy atmosphere makes it feel like a home away from home, the perfect spot to relax by the harbor.
