Come for the food.
Stay for everything else.

Aberdeen's most storied corner just got a lot more interesting.

There's a reason this place is called Hammerman's. The craftsmen who gave the venue its name — goldsmiths, blacksmiths, silversmiths, clockmakers — built Golden Square itself in the early 1800s. The streets that surround us are named after their trade: Crown Street, Silver Street, Diamond Lane, Ruby Place. This neighbourhood has been shaped by people who took their craft seriously.

We feel that. Whether it's the way Matthew and the kitchen team approach a plate of food, or the care the bar team put into every cocktail, Hammerman's is one of Aberdeen's most exciting new restaurants and cocktail bars — a place where things are done properly. Come as you are, stay as long as you like, and leave with a reason to come back.

Small plates. Big flavours.
Seconds are encouraged.

Our kitchen team's menu is rooted in Scotland and not afraid to have fun with it. Haggis Pakora. Whisky-Glazed Pork Belly Bites. Shetland Mussels with nduja cream. Slow-Braised Venison Pie. Seasonal sharing plates built from local produce. And the best deal in Aberdeen:

Whether you're looking for the best places to eat in Aberdeen or a cocktail bar with food worth talking about — you've found it.

Cocktails worth talking about.

The Hammerfall. The Silver Hammer. These drinks were made for this place — and for people who appreciate a glass that's been thought about. Our bar team craft every cocktail from scratch, and the wine list has been chosen with the same care. Pull up a stool. Order something you haven't tried before. You're in good hands.
