Evening,

Not one to leave things to the last minute...

Had wanted to book the Olive Tree private room on Queens Road for a retirement deal next Monday - it must be next Monday (03rd) at around 1900-1930.

However, an hour after i called for prices it would seem i was too slow and they'd booked it out. Balls.

So there will be 20-30 people on whom i would spend £25-30/head (excluding drinks) and would ideally like the privacy of a room, but this is by no means essential.

Was hoping for somewhere close to Queens Road for closeness to hotels and workplace.

Help me out!!!

Try Zen Oriental on Crown Terrace.
Food is excellent and they have an area off the main dining room about that size.

Tell Joe that Des from OSL sent you and you will be well looked after!

so good you said it twice!

I think that sounds fantastic, but might not fit in with other people's taste unfortunately. Plus the old bd is a terrible racist, so only a matter of time before he says something unfortunate in front of HR / the GM.

The Foyer on Crown Street or Stage Door on North Silver Street.

Best restaurant by FAR is Eat on the Green in Udny Green - well worth the visit but Closed on Mondays frown

is the Foyer good? i stay on Crown Street, pass it most days, but never thought of going in.

Think we've sorted something out with "The Square" which i thought was nice enough last time i was there.. Not able to use their private room though as it only holds 14, but they've arranged an area for us to take over.

Been to the Foyer a few times and always good, certainly worth a try. Stage Door prob better IMO. The Square looks nice n cosy. To be honest can't see past Eat on the Green now that I've moved out of the city. Comparable to some of the great restaurants in London. Craig Wilson the Chef/Owner has won loads of awards for his cullinary skills. N

well that sounds like one for me and the girlfriend then, rather than me and a bunch of folk from work.

La Bamba is an option if Mexican food is acceptable. I've also been to the Stage Door with groups of 20 or more and couldn't really fault them.

a wee bit further away but the olive grove in Grandholme village (same lot i believe, similar menu as well) have a private room upstairs which will seat your numbers.

Otherwise i would have said olive tree as well, will be there Sat night for a 40th bash. Not been for ages.

really? you don't say!!

Will have a look in to Simpsons Hotel, some of the folk coming up will be staying there so can see what they'd do. Cuisine needs to be British(ish).

Atholl Hotel gets my vote good food and room just the right size for 20-30 people.

For simple good Food, try the Filling Station on Union Street, good simple food, good service, tends to be busy though.

I hope you're joking! That's next to my work and it is 'dubious' to say the least!
