Stopped in for some lunch today. Friendly service with a good and varied choice of menu. Offers half portions of meals if more suitable. Brilliant value. Hot and cold options available. Felt like the teapot was bottomless, think it was 3 cupfuls in total!

Visited with son, he had an Americano, I had a flat white to drink, both were very enjoyable. To eat, he had a roll and sausage followed by chocolate sponge (which was very very good!)and I had stovies followed by cherry and marzipan scone. Food was very tasty, as always. Service was quick and friendly, everything was piping hot Incredibly reasonably priced too.

This cafe obviously attracts a large local clientele. However, my coffee was probably the worst I have had for over 20 years. My Americano with milk turned into a boiled milk extremely weak coffee. The slice we had was very good and the staff are pleasant.

I visited today after going for a run with my husband. The cafe was nice and clean, with lovely wipeable tablecloths. We chose large cappuccinos, and they were large, a really good size and we shared a fruit scone, which was lovely! Homemade, lots of fruit and really fresh. We could have had the scone of the day which, was orange, or one of a huge selection of chocolatey tray bakes. We shared the scone and without asking, we’re brought a second plate, so thoughtful. Hawick is quite a small town so it seemed that everyone else in the cafe knew each other, there was lots of happy banter. A real find!

Stumbled across this little cafe on a day trip to Hawick. We had Mac and cheese (the best I have ever tasted) some soup and a baked potato. Everything home made and couldn’t fault it at all. Staff are lovely and so welcoming. Bought some home made baked cakes too and can’t wait to try them later. The fact this is a charity just tops it all off- would recommend.

We had a lovely lunch in the Almond Tree today, came across it purely by chance on a visit to Hawick. The cafe had a super atmosphere, warm, welcoming and inclusive, and the service and food were both great. Love the ethos behind the cafe, great to see young people gaining skills and proving themselves to be highly employable. Those who manage The Almond Tree and those who volunteer there should all be proud of themselves, its a really inspiring place and project. And definitely check out the traybakes!

This is a not for profit community cafe, a ray of hope in an otherwise drab town. It offers employment to those who might otherwise struggle. The food and service were fine. The only meant to be constructive comment is that the supervising staff need to allow vulnerable staff a chance to get on with things that, make mistakes, learn from them and grow in confidence.

I visited your café at lunchtime today(12pm - 12.45pm), normally I go for a late breakfast (between 10.20 am and 1045 am and have a toasted teacake) but today I had the Soup and Pudding special which was Carrot and Coriander soup which was hot and delicious, (I didn't eat the roll it came with), along with the pudding of Apple Crumble (again I swapped the custard with cream), once the Apple Crumble came, I delved into it to discover it was overcooked or something, I could not taste the apples, just crumble. I am usually a fan of your puddings but today it wasn't for me sorry. I will be back as I like visiting your café when i'm along the street myself.

Tuesday 17 April I arrived in Hawick by bus from Kelso just as the shower turned a little heavier so when I saw The Almond Tree on the opposite side of the street I hurried across and entered. It is a pleasant café and I was the only male at that time, early afternoon. I ordered a bowl of Sweet Potato and Parsnip Soup which was delicious and warmed me so that, when the rain had ceased, I could continue my search for the remnants of the old Edinburgh-Carlisle railway line through the town-- and I found what I looked for !

Not only do I think this place has great food, it's an amazing concept for those who lack experience in the work industry. All the staff are friendly and you can tell they all try their hardest.

Reasonable food which is just as well as the service was really slow. Only one person taking a tables order then putting the order through to the kitchen before doing the same for the next table, then the next one. Not what you would expect.

A weekend away in the Scottish Borders led to us unexpectedly finding this wonderful restaurant in the Yarrow Valley today. It was one of the best Sunday roasts we’ve had in years (delicious local beef and pork) and a seriously tempting menu focussed around local ingredients by Bryn Jones. The honey cake for dessert by @she.likesbaking was also incredible and I’ve only just realised that Oxana Jones is not only a wonderful front-of-house host, but also an extremely talented baker. Thank you to your team, it was a memorable lunch and we’ll definitely be back for one of your tasting menus and an overnight stay.

Great little spot with friendly staff and good home cooked food. Opted for the bigger breakfast and was impressed with the quality of the ingredients. Great vibe in the seating area and very handy as close to town centre. Decent value for money and set us up for the day.

Booked a table for Easter Sunday thinking it would be busy but it was surprisingly quiet. The staff were very welcoming and accommodating (jokingly wanted to steal our Easter eggs). The food was sensational and they didn't skimp on the portions. The mussel dish that arrived as one of the starters took two people to eat.
