Soul Bar, Aberdeen
The Soul Bar in Aberdeen is an award-winning venue located on Union Street in the former Church of Scotland’s Langstane Kirk. Acquired in 2005 by PBDevco, the 145-year-old B-listed building was transformed into a stylish restaurant and late-night bar, while preserving its rich historical architecture. The original stained-glass windows and classic church features blend seamlessly with modern opulence and lighting, creating a unique and memorable atmosphere.
Soul's 200-seater restaurant serves fresh, local, and seasonal dishes daily from 12 pm to 9 pm, making it an inviting spot for lunch, dinner, or drinks. The extensive drink selection includes a variety of deluxe spirits, wines, local beers, soft drinks, and award-winning cocktails.
During the day and early evenings, a laid-back vibe is set with relaxed playlists that gradually shift to funky house tunes. The atmosphere is lively and energetic, especially on Friday and Saturday nights when live performances by house musician Paul Black and resident DJ Liam Gall keep the crowd entertained until the early hours. Soul Bar is a central social hub in Aberdeen, perfect for casual meetups or vibrant weekend nights out.
