Best Pizza & Kebab House in Dumfries & Galloway

We eat at The Pheasant quite often, despite it being a 30 mins drive from home. Great homemade Italian food using local produce. Indulgent puddings. Pity it’s closed between November and March

This italian restaurant is just off the high street and upstairs. We received a warm welcome and were quickly seated, the menu is quite comprehensive with lots of choice. The food was excellent, well cooked, well presented and good portions size. The staff were really nice, friendly and professional. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable. If you are in the area I would heartily recommend a visit to this restaurant for its quality food, friendly relaxed atmosphere and great value for money.

5/11/25 My friend found a good rating on Tripadvisor, so we decided to take the ride for lunch after attending church at the Dumfries Baptist Church. It's a lovely restaurant filled with many American memorabilia. The service was superb, especially our last server(can't recall his name), but he was very attentive and very friendly. He actually took the time to stop and chat. We both ordered the lamb dinner with Yorkshire pudding, potatoes, herbed sausage stuffing, and mixed fresh veggies. All was delicious. The only complaint was that the lamb was a bit dry and tough. Other than that everything was perfect! We topped the meal off with sharing a hot fudge sundae with crushed Reeses peanut butter cups! It was a great way to finish the meal and well worth the trip!

Great place with really nice food and super attentive staff in their ex-Police station. Really enjoyed our meal.

Pizza EXPRESS?!? No express about it! Went here for lunch while at Caledonia Retail Outlet. Staff member serving the tables was very polite, cheery & friendly - off to a good start...or so we thought. Time waiting for food after placing our order (1 half & half pizza + 1 portion of mozarella sticks) was around 45 mins. When the food eventually arrived the pizza was luke warm & over cooked - the pepperoni was dried out & when eating parts of the pizza it was like crunching on a bag of crisps. My husbands half of the pizza was slightly better as it had slightly more topping on it. Definitely wasn't worth the wait! We were going to order the golden chocolate caramel dough balls to take out but didn't want to wait/waste another 45 mins of the afternoon so didn't bother. Had eaten here before but following this experience, I don't recommend this Pizza "Express" & won't be returning.
