Aberdeen Restaurant Weeks: around 80 eateries, two weeks
Aberdeen Restaurant Weeks returns from Monday 24 August to Sunday 6 September 2026, bringing around 80 restaurants, cafés and bars into a city-wide food festival. The event is listed at City Centre, Aberdeen, AB10, and is intended for visitors and locals.
VisitAberdeenshire lists the ticket category as “Standard” but does not state a monetary price. A “Book Now” option is available, although the source does not say whether advance booking is required for every participating venue or offer.
Around 80 places join the Aberdeen line-up
Participating eateries will provide exclusive menus, special offers and dining experiences during the festival. The mix of restaurants, cafés and bars means the programme is spread among separate hospitality businesses rather than centred on one festival site.
According to the organiser, some of the Granite City’s best-known and most-loved venues will participate for the first time. However, the supplied event listing does not identify individual businesses or describe their particular menus and deals. Diners will therefore need to consult the booking information before deciding which venue and offer suit them.
The format leaves several ways to approach the event: trying a venue for the first time, arranging a meal with friends or returning to an established Aberdeen favourite. What is available, how much it costs and when it can be booked will depend on the participating business.
How the listed dates and times should be read
VisitAberdeenshire describes the overall Restaurant Weeks run as 24 August to 6 September. A separate date panel in the supplied listing displays daily entries from Monday 24 August to Sunday 30 August, each marked at 12:00am, while the event description confirms the later 6 September finish.
Those midnight entries should be treated as listing times, not as evidence that every restaurant, café or bar opens or serves its festival menu at midnight. No individual service hours are provided, and participating businesses may have different availability during the event period.
What to confirm before choosing a venue
The source does not include the complete participating-venue list, exact menu prices, transport advice or accessibility details. It also does not specify whether every special offer is available throughout each venue’s normal opening hours.
The practical next step is to use VisitAberdeenshire’s listed “Book Now” option to check the chosen restaurant, café or bar, the menu or deal being offered, its exact price and the available dining times. Accessibility requirements and whether advance booking is necessary should also be confirmed with the relevant venue before travelling.
