We’re thrilled to share some exciting news: The Murly Tuck was recently awarded a Highly Commended in the North-East of Scotland Casual Dining of the Year 2025 category! 🎉 This recognition means the world to us, and we owe it all to our customers, community, and dedicated team.

What the award means to us
Being “Highly Commended” is a nod that what we’ve built in Tarves — a cosy, welcoming café with good food and friendly service — is being noticed beyond our local corner. It encourages us to keep improving, to experiment, and to care even more about every detail.

Thanks to you — our community
This isn’t just our win — it’s yours. Every time you choose to stop by, bring a friend, leave a kind review, or share your Tuesday lunch break with us, you help make The Murly Tuck more than just a café. We’re deeply grateful for your support.

What we’re working on next
We’re inspired to use this momentum. Expect a few new menu items later this year, seasonal drink specials, and maybe even some local pop-up events (bake-offs? live music afternoons?) — more on that soon.


From the bottom of our hearts — thank you. We can’t wait to pour you your next cuppa, serve your next homemade scone, and continue growing with you.

📞 If you’d like to reserve a table, give us a call — we’d love to see you soon.
