Price Range £10–20

Beach Tree Cafe sits right on 2 Beach Blvd in Aberdeen, offering an inviting spot that blends a casual café atmosphere with views that catch the seaside breeze. It's a place where locals and visitors alike seem to come for relaxed breakfasts and light lunches, especially on days when the sun encourages sitting outside.

The café's outdoor seating area is a highlight on warmer mornings, making it ideal for a slow start with a good coffee—both cappuccinos and lattes receive solid nods from regulars. Inside, the vibe remains laid-back and friendly, with staff who pay attention to creating a smooth, accommodating experience. The kind of spot where you might drop by with family for a weekend brunch or meet a friend mid-morning for a chat over an avocado toast or something a bit heartier like the full Scottish breakfast.

The menu balances classics with a few specialty items that resonate with local tastes and comfort food cravings: chicken and waffles sit alongside staple eggs Benedict with salmon, while pancake stacks—both traditional and with twists like Biscoff—give a nod to those with a sweeter palate. There's a thoughtful selection for kids too, from simple cheese burgers to vegan options, which makes this a practical choice for families.

Meals here are not rush jobs; the staff's attentiveness means service moves briskly without feeling hurried. On quieter days or early mornings, this café offers a nice pause, where you might catch a glimpse of the harbour or watch the neighbourhood slowly come to life.

While the interiors show signs of wear—particularly the restrooms—this doesn’t detract much from the overall experience if you’re here for fresh, honest food paired with well-made hot drinks. The community feel is genuine, with moments of individual attention, like accommodating special requests or seating arrangements, that underline a service-first approach.

Best for: Breakfast or lunch focused visits, especially if you want a seaside breeze during your meal. Families, casual catch-ups, and those wanting to enjoy a varied menu with a good coffee will find Beach Tree Cafe a practical choice.

Best time to visit: Mornings to early afternoons on dry, sunny days when the outdoor seating livens the atmosphere.

Sat outside for breakfast on a lovely day. Staff were super kind and service was quick. Prices were slightly more expensive than I would expect to pay but to be fair, I got the biggest and tastiest breakfast roll so can't complain. Coffees were delicious! Thank you

Hubby had the small breakfast and he said the sausage was tasty. I had the beetroot & goats cheese on sourdough which was excellent. Toilets could have done with a bit of a freshen up.

I believe we were greeted by the manager who was exceptional - so pleasant and accommodating, she was able to put the lunch order earlier than was stated on the menu, instead of table for 2 she gave us a table for 4 to let us sit side by side. I know this won't always happen but she did what she could! The food was absolutely exceptional (had a steak sandwich), the peppercorn sauce was the best I've ever had, nice thick slices of sourdough with plentiful filling. Homemade bakes as well! I was so elated from the whole experience that I can't wait to be back. Truly 10/10, very memorable. Worth the price you're paying but if you're up for high standard, this is where you'll find it! Thanks beach tree

Wonderful lunch at the Beech Tree Cafe. The waitresses were quick and helpful and the food was perfect. I had the smashed cheese burger and fries, my wife had grilled halloumi with roasted peppers and avacado on sourdough. Extra thanks to the kitchen as this wasn't on menu that day but they did it as a special for my wife on her birthday

My kids loved the waffle (fresh and nice). They provided the drinks before the food for a wee while which wasn't the best. We needed Falafel wrap but they said it's for the lunchtime (I wouldn't have Falafel for lunch myself :)) Generally speaking it was a very good experience and the team was nice and welcoming Thanks!

Well, first of May i say that the staff are truly amazing . The high standard of the food served in the Beach Tree Cafe is second to none, 7 star in my opinion. What makes this place my most favourite place when eating out is the warm welcome and the amazing tasting food, not bland or tasteless, truly amazing tastes. I would highly recommend this place to eat for anyone visiting Aberdeen, down by the beach boulevard. The menu has so many different options to choose from, from different times of the day so you will never get board of dining at the Beach Tree Cafe. Dine in or Out it's all good.
