The village has many facilities including a primary school (with about 250 pupils attending each year), a large park with play area, a car dealer, a hairdressers, two tennis courts, a bowling green and a doctor's surgery. There are also a variety of shops in Torphins including a charity shop, a
Scotmid store, a beauty salon, a Chinese and Thai takeaway and a chemist. There is a
Church of Scotland church, which is part of the
Mid Deeside United Churches alongside those in
Kincardine O'Neil and
Lumphanan. Torphins also has its own Town Hall - the Learney Hall. It also has a
public house/
Indian restaurant, the Learney Arms Indian, which was originally part of a hotel. The hotel and pub was closed in 2015 with plans to turn the building into a residential dwelling, despite local objection. The pub was later reopened in 2016 but the hotel remained closed. The pub closed again briefly before being converted into an Indian restaurant and bar. The hotel no longer exists being converted into a private dwelling house and renamed The Gatsby. Torphins was home to a
War Memorial Maternity
Hospital. As a result, many
notable people from Deeside have been born in Torphins. The building, however, has recently become a GP clinic, and no longer offers maternity facilities.
Walkers Shortbread was founded in the village by Joseph Walker in 1898. There is a 9-hole
golf course located about a mile outside of Torphins. ==Public transport==
