We’re delighted to share that The Murly Tuck is taking part in this year’s Aberdeenshire Restaurant Week, a two-week celebration of the region’s amazing food scene. From 3 to 16 November 2025, cafés and restaurants across Aberdeenshire will showcase the very best of local hospitality with specially-priced set menus — and we can’t wait for you to join us.
What is Aberdeenshire Restaurant Week?
Organised by VisitAberdeenshire, this annual event shines a spotlight on the region’s delicious local produce and independent eateries. The goal is to encourage people to eat out locally, discover hidden gems, and enjoy fantastic value while supporting small businesses during the quieter autumn months.
It’s a great opportunity to try somewhere new, or revisit a favourite — and this year’s edition promises even more variety, from elegant dining rooms to cosy village cafés like ours in Tarves.
