Great place for breakfast! Especially if you want a full Scottish! We discovered a new meat (to us) called Lorne Sausage... AKA Square Sausage - a square patty of beef sausage! It is very good!

On separate occasions I’ve had breakfast, lunch & even just coffee & cake. Always a nice warm welcome, staff are friendly & helpful, nothing is too much trouble. Always clean, sometimes you need to come back to get a table but that just shows how good they actually are. See you next time.

Moffat is full of lovely places to eat but Cafe Ariete was 'calling 'and did not dissapoint in any way. We had soup, toasties, baked potatoes, drinks etc and everything was 5* especially the presentation and the quality of the food. The service was top-notch. We even took home baked cakes home for later :-) I would recommend to anyone.

Been to this cafe a good few times over the years and it used the be great. However the prices are now absolutely ridiculous and it's just pure greed. £12 for 2 hot rolls to take away is madness. The guy who runs the cafe is also extremely rude and arrogant. Not welcoming, friendly or well mannered in the slightest! Won't go back here sadly.

We were greeted by a very friendly chap behind the counter as we entered and shown to a table. Lots of other customers which was a good sign. Wait staff very pleasant and food arrived promptly. We opted for home made soup of tatties n mushroom which was excellent. The options of a soup and half a sandwich or toasty was welcomed as we didn’t want to spoil our evening meal. Very nice atmosphere, clean establishment including the toilet would recommend. One minor fault was that the bacon baguette came with brie on it when not asked for but I’m putting this down to lost in translation ie English to Scottish !

We were passing through Moffat on our way to Gretna and as it was midday we decided to stop for lunch. To be honest our first choice was fully booked and we looked on TA and decided to try Cafe Ariete. We’re pleased we stopped here because despite, Covid restrictions, the staff were friendly and very helpful. Our window table was clean and comfortable and our choices from the ‘restricted’ menus proved to be filling and tasty. We both very much enjoyed the sweet potato and coconut soup, and we had this with a half sandwich served with a small side salad and a handful of potato crisps. To finish we had a couple of slices of cake ( Humingbird cake ! and cheesecake ). Tasty!!

My husband and I visited in October and had a lovely lunch. We had booked a table, due to Covid restrictions, and had been given the prime window seat; they also had a manual track and trace system, to make it easier for diners to check in. We hope to visit again, this Sunday, now that Moffat will again be in Tier 1 - hurrah! This little unpretentious cafe is an asset to the town ... and can’t understand why a 6 years old negative review is still headlining the Tripadvisor post which comes up under Google, when there are so many more recent positive reviews. Any way, we have never been disappointed in any visit to Ariete’s over the past few years. The homemade soup is always a great choice, and the range of sandwiches and toasties/paninis is amazing. Enjoy!

Looks like a great little café on the high street. Sadly the service wasn't very efficient. After sitting down and being handed a menu I waited 15 minutes to order. Sandwich should have come with crisps, no crisps. Asked if I wanted any dressing, asked for salt, salad dressing plonked down, salt never appeared. Waiting staff were young people who don't seem to have their finger on the pulse. Chees/ham toastie and Malteser cake delicious. Asked to pay the bill, never saw a bill just presented with a card machine. Service is letting this business down sadly.

We ate here for a quick lunch on a Saturday around 12 noon. Upon going inside we couldnt help but notice how noisy it was. However, we sat down as trip advisor ratings were good. Once we sat down we realised how crammed together the seats were and so much so we could clearly hear the person sitting behind us whole conversation...very loudly. I dont know if its the high ceilings or what but the sound is so amplified you can hardly have a conversation and we struggled so it was a case of eat and leave. The food choices was very good though. We had lentil and ham soup and i had a cheese and ham sandwich with mine and mum had a scone. All of it was very tasty. the soup was a bit thick for both our liking but this will be to some peoples liking so we cant complain as it was realy tasty. Ive never seen this before in a cafe but you get a small cup of croutons to put in the soup if you wish. Really nice touch. All in all the food was good but not good enough that i would return because the noise and crammed seating put us off.

Mid morning Brunch here in this vibrant cafe was a wonderful. As a stranger to the town it felt that I had arrived in 'city hall' for it was full and one only had to sit and within the hour you would know of all the local news and 'chat'. Great atmosphere, added to which the choice of dishes from small to full Brunch were good added to which everything was cheerfully managed by helpful and cheery staff. Always learnt that if a venue is full of locals then look no further. Go on indulge yourselves but leave some room for a slice of homemade cake. Enjoy!

Popped in here for lunch and found a little gem! (And I don't mean a small lettuce!) The main waitress was superb - acknowledging everyone coming into the cafe so that even though it was busy, you knew you were going to be served soon. Unfortunately, this is a rare talent!! She took the orders and was ably assisted by junior staff who brought the food - which, incidentally, was lovely! I had soup and half a toasted baguette (Bacon, Brie and redcurrant jelly) The soup was hearty homemade mushroom and was truly delicious - as was the baguette. Sister-in-law had a ham baguette. Both served with salad garnish - for which we were offered dressing! We had wonderful coffee and the most delicious lemon drizzle cake - superb. Can't rate highly enough - simple but wonderful food with the best service. Thoroughly recommend.

1 mile east of the M74 on the scenic route to Edinburgh, Moffat is a lovely traditional town for a stop. Cafe Ariete is a traditional cafe with a difference. Their home made soups are delicious and gluten free. They have gluten free bread so the sandwiches and toasties are available to the GF customer. Their jacket potatoes and salads are tasty and filling. Great breakfasts.

Stopped in with mum en route to Glasgow. Lovely little cafe and nice interior. Got a warm welcome from the staff and our lunch was lovely. Would definitely recommend!

We were at Moffat early on a Sunday, and the cafe was bustling. Lots of customers having cooked breakfasts. Service was prompt and friendly. We had a coffee which was good and just needed a small bite so ordered toast with butter + jam. It’s great when places offer small, quick snacks. It was a wee bit chilly when the main door was open but otherwise a good coffee stop and good value.

I have long used Moffat as my preferred location for M74 service stops. It's friendly, it's not a noisy packed service station. It has soul...

A lovely cafe, with great staff. The food was delicious at a great price. I had a roll n sausage with a potato scone and tomato sauce. Amazing. My daughter had cheese n toast, done on a grill, not on a toasty machine, just like you make at home.

Stopped here for a late lunch (note: kitchen closes at 3pm). Comprehensive menu of family favorites. Three homemade soups on offer (all vegan!) and a big choice of baked potatoes, sandwiches etc. very friendly staff and a relaxed atmosphere. Our new goto in Moffat when we need to stop!

Visited the Frothy this morning for the first & very last time as the cafe is closing. Whilst the cafe was comfortable the coffee wasn’t the best ever tasted and we were stunned at the price! Compared to other coffee houses close by it was surprising; could this be a reason they are not finding it profitable?

Went for breakfast & the place was pretty quiet. Disappointed with portion size. Ordered 2 x breakfast & 2 x cup of teas which came to £25.75. Gave feedback to member of staff & they were not interested. Won’t be back.

I go here regularly for a carvery as it is one of the best I have been to. I am a very fussy eater and to find a carvery that serves chicken as an option is surprising difficult. The three meats to choose from are usually chicken, beef and gammon/ham. The veg/side options usually include cauliflower cheese, broccoli, carrots, Yorkshire pudding, cocktail sausages and stuffing, but the roast tatties are my favourite part of the meal! You are limited to going up to fill your plate only once but I usually leave feeling very full. Sometimes I have soup as a starter as well depending on what kind it is. I highly recommend giving the carvery a go for anyone who is a fan of a good roast!

This cafe served the worst scone I have ever had / didn't have. (and that's saying something as I'm in my 70s and have had a few in my time. You could build a house with a few of them. Inedible expensive rubbish. It came in a paper bag, no plate and a wooden disposable knife which struggled to cut it. The coffee was served in a paper cup. But was drinkable. Cost over £13 for two coffees and two inedible scones. I am disgusted and will definitely won't be back

Friendly, relaxed, flexible and fun. Nick was a brilliant teacher and good company. Took Mother for some quality time together and she was immediately put at ease and we both had a lovely time. Will definitely go again. If you want quality experiences with friends and family AND you want to learn some great life skills to boot then book your place!
