Where Aberdeen
Gathers
Freshly cooked food, Aberdeen's largest rum collection, live sports, and quiz nights every Thursday and Sunday. Open from 12pm every day.
A proper pub.
Properly looked after.
After a £150,000 refurbishment in 2025, The Tilted Wig reopened with Aberdeen's longest restored wooden bar, William Morris-style wallpaper, Victorian floor tiles, and seating that makes you want to stay.
Adjacent to the Sheriff Court, the name is no coincidence. The atmosphere is cross-generational, warm, and genuinely welcoming.

Hot Wig Summer is coming to an end
