I don’t tend to seek coffee outside of Aberdeen unless it is near a hiking route, which therefore needs to take into consideration weekend opening times. Alas, important business took me to Inverurie and left me careless for a couple of hours – time which I knew I wouldn’t struggle filling.

Third Circle Coffee
Following the very enjoyable visit to the nearby Fearless Coffee, I took a long walk before reaching Third Circle Coffee – my original destination on that particular cafe exploration of Rosemount… The minimalistic decor gave off a hipster vibe (which tends to correlate with good barista skills, but I have not done a study on that!), albeit the strangely intense techno-style music* chinked that perception somewhat.
Fearless Coffee
I decided on a longer circuit around Rosemount and surrounding shopping areas; and so, my chosen route took in another cafe I had never heard of, mere 250 yards from my prime destination, called Fearless Coffee – and here is where I went first.
Mozart Concierge (Flowers and Coffee)
When an Instagram reel featuring Mozart popped up on my “For you” feed, I hit “Save” instantly. I then retrieved the video on my next trip to the Capital, but only after I actually spotted someone walking down Piccadilly with a flowery 2-cup holder, which triggered my memory.
Moossh Cafe
I liked the presentation when it was served not long after – an earthenware mug and pretty latte art in rich chocolatey concoction. But the visuals were misleading!
Ride Coffee House
This place has popped up in a few conversations with Aberdeen(shire) people that have become aware of A Black Spot; they would ask if I had been yet – suggesting it was worth a visit.
