 Poster: A snowHead
|
I'll be traveling up to Aviemore by sleeper this coming Friday, arriving at 7:40am on Saturday morning. We were planning on getting breakfast at the Coffee Pot in Aviemore before heading out for a day on the hill. However, the phone number seems to be out of action. Does anyone know if the Coffee Pot is still trading, or if not, an alternative cafe that is open by 8am on Saturday morning? We've a big day planning so a decent warm breakfast would be nice, but needs to be early.
Thanks!

sorry, just occurred to me you are probably climbers/walkers, rather than skiers....

Don't recall the coffee pot. Best we found were the cafes in active sports (from station head left towards the youth hostel), and mountain cafe (from station head right and go past most of the town and It's on the left)

andy, thanks. Unfortunately the Mountain Cafe doesn't open till 8:30am and the Active Sports one till 9:00am. We really need somewhere that's open by 8:00am for it to be a goer. Currently looking like sleeper shortbread supplemented by cereal bar!

Call up a couple of B&Bs and see if they'll just do &B?

There are a few others in Aviemore itself that you could try.
Coffee Corner - in the same row of shops as Nevisport on the corner nearest the Cairngorm hotel.
Skiing Doo - I'm sure I've had a bacon roll here in the past but don't know if they will open early enough for you.
Cafe Bleu? - Think that is what it is called - next to Ellis Brigham on the main street.
If you phoned the Cairngorm hotel, I'm sure you could get a breakfast there - pretty good as I recall. Bonus is that it is almost over the road from the train station.
Lastly, if you are headed up the hill, depending on your mode of transport, you could always stop at the Glenmore campsite cafe for a real monster of a meal.

Nick_H, that's brilliant, thanks very much. Caingorm hotel are going to do us a Highland breakfast for £9.50 pp and they serve from 7:30am. And couldn't be better for the train station. Perfect!
