How it started ## Our story The Atrium opened in June 2023, the second Aberdeen restaurant the Clark family run, alongside Hammerman's on Golden Square. Good Scottish produce, distinct flavours from all around the world, and a Scottish fusion you won't find anywhere else in the city. The room is where the name comes from. It's one large space under a pitched glass roof, with white glazing bars overhead, a lantern chandelier hanging beneath them and a bar built from whisky barrel staves with copper taps at the pumps. It suits a Tuesday dinner for two and a christening lunch for forty. Since opening it's become somewhere Aberdeen books by default: Sunday roasts, birthdays, anniversaries, first dates. It currently stands at 4.3 from 302 Google reviews, and we're well aware that only lasts as long as the cooking does. Chapel Street, Aberdeen ## This is why we do it We built The Atrium to do one thing well. Take good Scottish produce, give it flavours you weren't expecting, and put it in front of you in a room you don't want to leave. Everything else follows from that.
