I enjoyed my recent visit to this traditional pub. It has an impressive interior with an 'island bar' (a bar in the centre of the pub) which provides a good focal point to the pub and a good pint. The bar also has a good selection of whisky, and if you are a tourist they even give you a menu explaining all the whisky they serve.
Upstairs is the restaurant area which is small and relaxed, offering good hearty, homemade style food. I ate there with a mate at New Year and we were served by two attractive waitresses. When the steak pie I had ordered arrived though it was cold. This lead my mate to comment ‘waitresses hot, the food not!’ However as soon as I complained, the meal was immediately replaced with a hot one.
Apart from the initial cold pie the service was fine, and the now hot pie tasted good.

The waitresses were indeed attractive and friendly and one of them was a Kiwi! (from Lumsden, so if you visit the Abbotsford please be nice to her!)
