Twelve miles north of Inverurie, at the foot of Bennachie, Morgan McVeigh’s is a large modern country food shop, and also offers all day sustenance from its 80-seater restaurant. The menu includes great breakfast options like French toast and a Scottish breakfast that offers free-range scrambled eggs and Scottish smoked salmon. Soup and sandwiches abound at lunchtime, or opt for something heartier like the lamb meatloaf or 6oz rib-eye steak in a ‘whopper’ roll. Scones and homebakes are available all day and there’s also a good children’s menu.
