About Contour Cafe
Contour Cafe sits on The Green in Aberdeen's old town, a courtyard space set back from the main street. Seating mixes indoor tables with a limited outdoor area, and the mixed styles have accommodated a party of six. The menu runs from a Full Breakfast and BLT to a Haloumi wrap and pancakes with bacon, with veggie and vegan choices alongside. Coffee includes matcha as well as the regular option. Service is walk-in, and dogs are welcome on site. The cafe stands near the street art and graffiti found around the city.

Customer Review Summary
Breakfast leads at Contour Cafe, where reviewers single out the Full Breakfast for its huge portion and flavourful bacon and sausages, and one calls the pancakes and bacon the best in town. Close behind are the sandwiches, with a BLT described as one of the better ones a reviewer had in a long time and a grilled Haloumi wrap served with fresh salad. Others mention a Matcha coffee, cake, and a wide menu with plenty of veggie and vegan choice. Staff come up repeatedly as friendly, welcoming, and helpful, and one reviewer notes service was very fast even while people streamed in and out. The space is described as small, with a mix of indoor seating and limited outdoor space, though it handled a party of 6. One reviewer found the decor unsure of what it wanted to be, with a mix of seating styles inside. Another praises the cafe for being clean, with no dirty plates piling up on tables.

“Stopped in for breakfast while visiting Aberdeen and ordered the Full Breakfast. The portion size was huge—far more than I could finish! I had to leave some behind, which is something I rarely do. Everything was delicious and full of flavour, especially the bacon and sausages. A hearty, well-cooked breakfast with excellent taste. Thank you!”

“Lovely friendly and helpful staff, a great choice of savoury and sweet options with drinks to match, it's a smallish cafe with a mixture of indoor and limited outdoor space but catered well for our party of 6.”
