The Stag

The Stag is situated at 6 Crown Street just off Union Street, and a short walk from the Music Hall. Welcome to The Stag.
(741)

It was formerly the Star and Garter, the ‘Auld Starry’ as it was affectionately known in days gone by. Indeed it was once acknowledged to be the posties’ pub because of its proximity to the old Crown Street Post Office. Catering for groups of up to sixty people and boasting a great selection of lagers, ales, fine wines and whiskies, The Stag is the place to be if you’re looking for a good time. Wi

th several large HD screens, it’s the perfect venue for watching live sport. The Stag is owned by the same team as McGinty’s Meal an' Ale, another popular Aberdeen bar situated at the top of Union Street and Holburn Junction. So if you’re looking for a good-time pub, then the hunt is over.
