Platform 22

Platform 22 is a family run pottery gallery, featuring our own pottery by ceramicist Emma Pattullo and a licenced coffee house in the pretty Deeside village of Torphins. Recently we have become a micro-brewery making small batches of real ales, which are available both in house or buy to enjoy at home later! Every Wednesday from 10am to 2pm in the Platform 22 forecourt we host Torphins Market. Scotland's only weekly outdoor farmers market that runs throughout the year, promoting local business, local produce and local enterprises too. Wherever your journey takes you pull in at Platform 22 and discover the "Heart of Deeside".

My first visit to this delightful little café, even though it has apparently been there for 14 years! Lovely welcome, excellent coffee and home-made plum and cinnamon scone made for a welcome rest halfway through my bike ride. coffee and home-made plum and cinnamon scone made for a welcome rest halfway through my bike ride.

Glen Garioch Distillery

Reviewed By AEMSpain - Vejer de la Frontera, Spain

My father and I enjoyed the most fantastic visit with Glen Garioch on their new Founders Tour. It covered history, fine whisky, beautiful views and gourmet food. We were taken to several unique viewpoints, in the Glen Garioch mini bus, to learn about the landscape and special aspects of Oldmeldrum and the founders of GG which contribute to making Glen Garioch so unique. At each stop we enjoyed a nip of something special along side a tasty gourmet delight of the area. The tour included a delicious tasting lunch at Meldrum House Hotel of dishes prepared using Glen Garioch and accompanied by the same. This tour is a true example of how you learn about the history and culture of an area through it's food and drink. I will happily repeat this tour one day. Highly recommended.
