Clashwhannon Public house in Dumfries & Galloway

Beautiful spot, the owner Dave is a nice geninue chap. We ate here a few times for tea and take away.. Highly recommend popping in..

Great wee place. Staff friendly . Had a pizza was lovely. Loaded with toppings. Drinks fair price . Will be back

I had roast beef yorkshire pudding followed by sticky toffee pudding again it was excellent the staff were also good and very helpful..

Hidden little gem. Great value tasty quality food. The mighty grill is great with everything you’d expect. Kids meals good size and drinks dairy prices too. We had the last of the nice weather sat outside for tea. Thanks for a lovely meal

Really friendly with decent ale and good home cooked food. You can also sit outside on the deck. Only down side is that parking can be a little tricky but that aside it’s well worth a visit. Unusual menu item is black pudding goujons served with local honey…delicious!

Have eaten here a few times, the real ale is always very well kept and served, and there is a good selection of dishes to choose from. Nothing too exotic on the menu when we were there, but if you're after a burger / lasagne / chicken enchiladas etc, they're all very tasty and good sized portions. It's child and dog friendly too. There's a large restaurant area at the back, but as we had the dog with us we ate in the bar area -- tbh, this was actually a bit more atmospheric, and we had a good chat with the owner (David) and very friendly serving staff. All in all highly recommended for an couple of quick pints or an evening meal, will definitely be back.

Brilliant meal, beautifully cooked. Went there last evening on the recommendation of a lady from Durham. Certainly lived up to the praise.

Thank you for the lovely service. From walking through the door. Think the young girl Amanda or mandy she was lovely. And the second lady was also lovely.food was great (thank you chef) good prices. Al in all would definitely recommend.

The first time we got take away deep fried Haggis and Chips and Fish and Chips. I had the Haggis and Chips because I had never had Haggis before. It was nice but the portions were huge. We came here the next day for dinner and we all had Haggis, mashed Potatoes and Swede. It was all very nice. We came here again tonight and had the same thing again but me and my Mum shared the Haggis, Mashed Potato and Swede because the portions were so big the last so I could fit in a sticky toffee pudding with Ice Cream which was nice. The servers were nice too. I would recommend the Haggis, Mashed Potatoes and Swede from here.

Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Service brilliant and food was cooked perfectly and was delicious. Portions are MAN sized!!

Like home from home. Campsite is lovely, well kept. Caravan was lovely and clean when we arrived, spacious and homely. Onsite pub does delicious food. Not had a single bad meal in the 5 years we have been coming. All the staff are so friendly and very welcoming and helpful. Got lovely views, great scenery. Can't recommend this place enough! Great system in place during the current circumstances. Can't wait for next year already.

Great place for a meal, friendly and casual. The staff (to my shame I failed to get her name) could not have done more for you. I would heartily recommend something which comes with the outstanding cream of whisky sauce, it was so good I was tempted to ask for it poured over the apple crumble too - only half joking lol. Could probably do with a few more vegetarian options, for those of that persuasion.

Really friendly pub. Good pub food well cooked. Very dog friendly! We are here a number of times while we stayed in Drummore. Various options from the menu tried and all very tasty. Member of CAMRA so good variety of ale available.

What a lovely little place. The food is exceptional, staff extremely friendly. Very reasonably priced for the quality. 👍

very friendly people. Food was excellent, steak pie highly recommended. Well worth a visit but advisable to book.

I was going to meet up with friends and family for dinner we had a great time here the food was delicious and the service was excellent and the staff very friendly and helpful and very very clean hope to be back with family

Been going to this great place for a few years now and must say the owners and staff are some of the friendliest people you will meet, the food and drink is great and always made to feel at home one thing I will say is they always remember our dogs Boycee & Barney, they love them too bitsPeter & Claire

Had a takeaway meal in May from here. I had curry which was adequate, I got takeaway fish and chips for my parents. Really terrible, batter awful, chips awful. Everything had been made much earlier and thrown back in to reheat it. The dark brown look of the batter was a giveaway. A definite no no with any hot food especially fish and chips. My parents could barely touch theirs. Almost overshadowed an otherwise great week for my mother. Fish and chips seem to be too hard to get right for many hotels so best pick something else if you are eating here would be my advice...

We eat here regularly when holidaying nearby. A traditional local pub with great hospitality and consistently good food. A varied menu, nothing fancy, just well cooked food, reasonably priced. The seafood enchilada is a firm favourite. Dogs are welcome in the bar but the dining room is more pleasant and spacious. I can highly recommend.

Whilst spending a couple of nights in Portpatrick the wife and I decided to take a wee trip to Drummore. As we approached the village we whizzed past the Clashwhannon, as it comes up on the road quite quickly, and - although a large enough building - it's easy to drive past. Once we'd passed it we saw signs for the 'Ship Inn', and so both needing the loo at this stage we continued to follow the signs.By the time we'd driven past the harbour and out towards a picnic spot parking place, we realised that we'd missed the Ship Inn. Either that or it'd sailed off somewhere! We U-turned and headed back the way we'd just come and this time didn't miss the Clashwhannon.It was a beautiful hot day so we chose to sit outside, but entered the restaurant area to order. This is a large and roomy pub restaurant, and the staff were welcoming and friendly.I ordered the liver and bacon casserole with mash, my wife the vegetarian curry.Both meals were delicious and plentiful, served hot and promptly, well cooked and well presented.One alcoholic drink and one large juice, two meals and less than £25. Result.Anytime we're next in the area, we'll return.

Stayed here for the third time in a row and it was another lovely stay.....caravan was immaculate with a brill sea view. Nice pub attached to it and the owners Louise and Martin are very welcoming

Ate and drank here twice in July. Food was nice (fish pie, scampi, hot beef bap) would’ve rated higher if chips hadn’t been the basic frozen type. Dogs allowed in to smaller bar only. Surprised that the beer wasn’t better as it’s in the Camra good beer guide (a bit hazy - shame).

Passing by so dropped in without looking at TA. No friendly welcome which wasn't a good start. Lady behind the bar gave the impression she wanted to be somewhere else. Steak pie had lots of tender steak and was a good portion with chips and peas and carrots. Ruined by the fact it was heavily salted. When i mentioned it to two staff after both asked if everything was OK, I was just told it was their most popular dish, like that made it alright!! Fish pie was excellent, again a good portion with chips, salad garnish and garlic bread. Personally, I would not return.

Went for a meal with my five sisters on the first evening of our stay in the area. Great home cooked food and ample portions. We all struggled to finish it. Friendly staff and locals who got us involved in their quiz night. We had a brilliant evening. Went back a few nights later and it was the same again. Would definitely recommend. Will go back when we next visit the area.

Great food friendly welcoming staff really good menu. It was great to find a dog Friendly pub that serves excellent food. Although one lady customer (and I use the word lady very loosely) slammed her drink on the bar and walked out when we brought our small terrier dog in.

Disappointing. Had first round of drinks. Considering the menu. Then a dog was allowed to run around inside the pub off a lead up to other people’s tables. Decided to finish up and leave quickly as I prefer not to have loose dogs running around especially if thinking of eating. Landlady managed to lose half her clientele and certainly the second round we were contemplating.

The cottage was everything we hoped it would be, very clean and well maintained.

I had the chicken with haggis and whisky sauce and it was delicious. There are not many options to eat out in Drummore, but you don't need many as here is great, I'd happily have eaten there every night if we had been staying longer!

We had takeaway meals twice from this restaurant whilst on holiday at nearby Port Logan in October this year and also when we stayed in the same location in March this year. The standard of the food is excellent and I can thoroughly recommend them.

We stayed here for a week and the service from Martin, Louise & all the staff was fab as always.

Three of us ate here last week. We tried highland chicken, chicken curry and steak pie. All meals were decent but nowt to write home about.

The pub is part of the Caravan park I believe but is open to all. We were staying nearby and had decided to have a night off from cooking. There is easy parking next to the pub. We had a fish and chips and a hunters chicken both of which were cooked well and, the hunters chicken especially, was a very generous portion. Drinks are averagely priced and they have several guest ales. The night before we travelled home we decided to visit again. This time we had a beef lasagne and a chicken lasagne, again cooked well and were very tasty. We treated ourselves to dessert and both had the homemade rhubarb crumble which was delicious. The staff were friendly and helpful and we would return if in the area.

Having just returned from Drummore from a weekend of a variety of fishing exploits in the local area, i can’t express enough gratitude to the owners of the pub and caravan site for their hospitality! We had a great time and were well looked after in terms of facilities, views and of course the lovely food and drink! The locals are a brilliant bunch and we enjoyed a dram or two with them on Saturday night! An excellent end to our weekend! Thank you to everyone we met and we look forward to coming down again next year and I will certainly be looking to come again with my family and other friends! Brilliant place for goid honest food, drink and hospitality! Thanks again!!

Where do I start. This place is just totally amazing. Martin, Louise and I think Vanessa do a totally amazing job. I have been visiting the mull of Galloway for well over 10 years. Food and drinks from this little treasure of a place are just brilliant. I can't wait for next year already and only came back today

Superb food and drink. The staff are amazing. Always made to feel very welcome. The attached campsite had some very nice caravans to rent. A super place to be.

This place was homely place to visit, and also allows dogs. Quaint bar and larger restaurant. Clean and tidy. Food was stupendous. 5* service and quality food. Outside eating.this place all you require for pub grub or table serviced meal. Highly recommended

Lovely friendly pub which serves up real ale and is a member of CAMRA so ale drinkers will not be disappointed

We had a great Sunday Lunch - we both had lamb and Sticky Ginger pudding with custard. The lamb was delicious, served with a yorkshire pudding and fresh vegetables and gravy. All well cooked and really tasty. The ginger pudding and custard was yummy - empty plates all round. We revisited for a meal in the early evening. I had the steak pie, served with chips and veg & gravy. The pie was delicious, and a huge portion (I gave some to hubby)

Great food and beer. Good home cooked food and a good menu. Clash Mighty Grill was a very tasty meal. You need a big appetite!

We had smoked local mussels in garlic butter, then beer-battered, locally caught paddock. Both were excellent. Louise, proprietess, was cooking and every plate sent through from the kitchen looked similarly good and in huge portions. Highly recommend. Prices very reasonable indeed, and wide range of real ales including guest ales changed regularly. Very popular, and deservedly so. Favourite with locals too, as was clear from chatter in the cost, traditional bar, while tables outside were bathed in brilliant sunshine. A good place in an enviable location on the coast.

We visited the clash for Sunday lunch as it is a dog friendly establishment, we were not disappointed.

We called in for Sunday lunch beer was excellent food was good and filling we were made to feel welcome Landlord cared for his cask ale well, there was only one on today but it was good would have stayed for a few more but A is recovering from pneumonia and had to rest will call again if/ when we come back up here.

The place was busy with locals when we arrived, which is always a good sign. The food was tasty and the portions were generous. The staff were all helpful and friendly.

We visited the pub several times while staying in one of the caravans. All food we had was tasty and freshly cooked. The fish pie was exceptional and Sunday dinner was lovely too.

Excellent food and also Sunday lunches. The Cullen Skink and Fish pie we had one day couldn't be bettered. They also have local bottled ales for those who like that. Its a CAMRA pub as well.

A friendly pub, though not as cosy as the picture suggests. The scampi, breaded, was fine. This is an area with few eateries so this is probably one of the best. The music and decor probably hasn't been touched since the 80s (and the choice on the menu also reflected that) and there is a smell of old carpet as soon as you walk in. Reasonably busy on a bank holiday weekend. The do offer three beers in third pint glasses, which pleased my husband!

Me and friend on a camping fishing trip so set up camp at the Clashwannon caravan site, not a bad price for having toilets and showers nearby plus an electric hook up ,and almost on the beach ,good beer and great food

The restaurant is easy to find, just off the main road to Drummore. Very pleasant atmosphere with a nice country pub feel. They have a good selection of beers available. There is a great selection on the menu. I had the Haggis burger which I can definitely recommend, the rest of the family all enjoyed their meals too

Descubrir esta joya poco tarde en nuestra estancia en Drummore. Pub CAMRA con un par de opciones que conseguí un poco enganchados en el brew, pero había otras opciones.

Outside seating where you can have your dog. Lovely food in good size portions. Friendly staff and great service. Would recommend. :-)

Gran comida abundante y acogedor mucho para elegir. Tenía un plato de pollo y haggis, deliciosa. Sin duda volveremos. También permiten perros, lo cual es una ventaja.

Precios razonables, buena comida y servicio. Sin duda volvería si en la zona, y lo recomendaría a amigos y familiares.

This is a fabulous pub that lets dogs come in with you when you eat in the pub - there is a separate dining room where dogs cannot go - been here twice whilst on holiday and the food was proper home cooked meals - nothing to fault

My wife is in a wheelchair and access is straight forward,we were on holiday and ate here every evening bar one out of 6 days, Licencees Louise and Martin are very friendly, we enjoyed all our meals and there is a varied specials board also the Sunday lunch roast is very good,we have a Labrador dog who was made welcome,there is a variety of fine cask ales, what more is there to say apart from we will be returning to enjoy again.

Recently visited the clash for lunch it was enjoyed by us all and we're made very welcome by the owner loise we would highly recommend it.

Enjoyed a few visits here over the week.Warm and friendly welcome. Loads of information given re things to do and see in the area. Quickly became included in conversation with the locals. Good food available at reasonable prices.

Good selection menu plus specials board. Service pleasant and speedy. Food tasty and plenty of it. Good value

our last night in Drummore was spent here. the service was prompt and friendly, the food was Delicious and the pub atmosphere was buzzing. You can see why people go back here !! The menu was varied and tantalising ,,, the starters were run of the mill but tasty. The mains were different ,,, I had the seafood pancake and it was scrumptious my friend had the chicken Balmoral ,, which was very moist and both were beautifully presented. would I go back ? ,,, if I was passing !!

This was our 5th visit here over a 3 year period on holidays. The staff are freindly the food is great. You are allowed to tske dogs into the bar side which is a real bonus for us having a dog. Defo give this place a try great selectoin of beers food and specials

The Clashwhannon always has a great pub food menu and an excellent selection of beers including regular guest draft beers and ales. If you are visiting Drummore make sure you stop here for a bite to eat and a refreshing drink

I've been here a few times and it never disappoints, the food is really good and friendly service, add well kept beers to this and it's a perfect pub!

We had a couple of meals here. Service is slow so be prepared to be patient but when food comes it's worth the wait, portion size good and quality excellent . The people who were serving on both occasions we were there were very friendly.

Visited for the first time after years of driving by and was pleasantly surprised. Food isn't fancy but great value pub food. If your after a friendly pub meal then this is a great stop. Prices pretty good.

Family owned and run. Staff are all locals, so you can get the local gossip,or their version of it, as well as general news. The Bar staff are used to Cheeky Farmers, so City Boys get short shift if they are out of order, all done in the best possible taste. If you can't laugh at yourself, you will have to adapt, and you will get good humoured assistance with adapting.There is a frequent changing selection of guest ales at the Bar.The restaurant uses a lot of local produce, which is freshly cooked to order. They do have a few specialty meals. Do not order Jumbo Cod unless you are really hungry. The fillet of fish will be hanging over the edges of the plate, and it is not a wee plate!!!!Vegetarian options are good and Kids (Senior Citizen) Portions are available as well as tasty treat meals to tempt the kids.A great welcome in a friendly pub at reasonable prices and excellent quality.

Very friendly staff, food in pub excellent, caravan was spotless, our was at the road,but beds really comfortable so fell asleep no problems

I arrived at 'The Clash' a bit late but the kitchen staff kindly prepared me a scampi meal that was very tasty and nicely presented too. Everybody I spoke too rated the food highly - a pity I was too late to sample more of their menu. I will be returning to Drummore and will definitely eat and drink here again.

Stopped for bite to eat en route to mull of Galloway. Pub was very quiet but staff very pleasing. Chilli and rice and sausage eggs and chips. Big platefulls and tasty.

Stopped for dinner at this pub on my first night at the Mull of Galloway. Found a friendly host and great pub meal. I had the fish and chips which included a large slab of haddock and ample potatoes. A satisfying meal.

Highly recommend lovely people nothing too much trouble Enjoyable comfortable we were there for new year eve In the afternoon and then in the evening to see in the new year great fun.

We ate here on a rainy and cold November night, but we received a warm and friendly welcome from both the staff and locals. The food was freshly cooked and delicious, and there was plenty of it! There was a lovely atmosphere in the bar even though there wasn't many people in there. Our dog was welcome in the bar area, which was very comfortable - the restaurant looked very nice too, but we were very happy where we were. Will definitely be back!

Finished off the season at the Mull of Galloway with a dinner for all involved. Food was very good - I had lasagne followed by sticky toffee pudding and ice cream. Good helpings and piping hot.

Visited the Clash for a meal one evening and now keep returning! The crispy chili beef is fabulous! There is an extensive menu with so many choices. Portions are very large but just managed to finish it. The staff are lovely and welcoming too - highly recommended.

We ate here a couple of nights ago. The nicest steak pie I have ever had. Absolutely crammed with juicy tender steak. Highly recommend this place. Going back tonight. Nice homely pub atmosphere. Friendly staff.

Have had a fabulous week here at The Clashwannon, caravan was perfect, weather was perfect, 2 days out fishing with Andy and Ian from "Onyer Marks", each day a different type of fishing, with good results., the fishing from the beach was spoilt by the fish "being away on holiday"!!!!!! The food has been absolutely first class, very tasty and good sized portions. Don't want to go home tomorrow. Would recommend "The Clash" to anyone, the Hosts are really welcoming, will be booking again for next year for certain. Pete Thompson :)

This place is quite something!! The food is beyond words...really beautiful food. The crispy chilli beef is superb. We are here for a week and are looking forward to working our way through the menu. Great staff...wonderfully friendly, great prices too. Would prefer to come back here over our usual holiday destination. Keep up the good work guys...we'll be back again!!

Been visiting the area now for last 3 years, every year we go back the the clash as its one of the most friendliest family run parks I've ever visited, from polite staff to the friendly locals, i am looking at buying a van on sites its that good, well worth a visit.

Recently visited the area and the Clashwhannon was recommended by the B&B we stayed at. How right they were. The food quality, for a pub, was exceptional and there was a great choice. The price was good too, at only £9.95 for a main meal and a generous portion at that. There was a good atmosphere with plenty of custom despite being September and the main holiday period having ended. To be highly recommended.

One of the best places to eat in the area. It might be part of a caravan site but the restaurant accepts visitors

Solo traveller staying in local B&B. Clashwhannon Public House was recommended and didn't disappoint. Arrived around 8.15 pm. Serve until 9 pm summer months and 8.30 winter months (check first). Really friendly atmosphere. I felt welcomed. Mix of tourists and locals. It was just going dark and had a power cut but only lasted a few minutes. Ordered steak pie, gravy, chip and veg and was outstanding and the best I had ever had. Around £11. All the staff were friendly and helpful. FREE WIFI.Would definitely go again. Just around the corner from the famous most southerly lighthouse etc.

good selection of beers and spirits and excellent food pool tables and fishing magazines to read as well

Try to come here at least once everytime we visit. Great food great portions great price great staff.....to sum up simply great. Definitley recommend

Excellent food, good beer. Small caravan site close to the sea. Proprietors very friendly and helful

We liked the food and the people running the pub. AS they also run the caravan park it was nice to be made so welcome

Had a lovely meal and the service was fantastic too, nothing was to much trouble. Free wi-fi for my daughters iphone which helps keep them amused. We regularly stay with our touring caravan at New England Bay and have eaten here many times. Keep up the excellent work

great meal as usual from the clash didnt turn up till just before 9 and the kitchens had allready been cleaned but martin sorted the four of us out with some lovely meals and i even managed to get the last steak pie lol great pub and meals thanks jeff

Food was good and service friendly.We had been cycling all day so had large appetites which were well catered for!

Great food extremely hearty portions to suit healthy appetites. Good selection of real ales, very welcoming and friendly atmosphere.

Outstanding quality and service provided for a touring party of 18. The owners made us feel most welcome and went out of their way to ensure we were all extremely well looked after.

Like everything disliked nothing food is geart the staff and geart to amenities and location is geart it's not that far to the mull of golloway drummore is a nice little village

We had a very good meal - generous portions and well-served and presented. The staff were friendly and you couldn't really go wrong here.

We went for high tea on Mother's Day . I had a very small portion of lasagne served with a few frozen chips and a piece of soggy garlic bread. It was edible but not something I'd order again. My other half had the haddock and chips served with mushy peas and a slice of bread and butter, we weren't sure if the fish was fresh or frozen but it was in a very crispy coating and tasted okay. This was followed by a cake stand with homemade cakes and scones, those we tried were nice, but not enough to make up for the meal. At £8.95 it wasn't an expensive meal.

This is our second visit to the Clashwhannon (the first middle of last year) and we landed in without a booking on what was obviously a busy mothering Sunday for them.We were still accomodated in the bar area for our late afternoon meal and opted to go with the 'High Tea' which was excellent value. Staff and locals friendly and we would use again.

Can get a bit noisy and cliquey at times when there is a big group of anglers in residence... but generally a friendly bar with better-than-average quality pub food. Definitely worth a visit!

Known locally as the Clash. Good food and good company. Standard pub food, such as meat pies, fish and chips, etc. Used to be the Creamery in Drummore.

The food here was first rate, great hospitality. Although a number of the items that were on the menu, were not, if you catch my drift. The Haggis was devine!!!

Awful. Staff (owner?) rude and more interested in gossiping and chatting to locals then serving anyone. Waited for ages decided to head to Portpatrick instead. Avoid.

I would like to thank manger and staff for the very good food we had today very friendly food very good would recommend it for Sunday lunch sweet and sour chicken lovely,we used to live in Drummore. Thanks Louise and staff A 1.

Finding the landlady dragging on a fag at the front door was not an encouraging welcome and the news that they had run out of real ale was not a good sign. Once we distracted the staff from their electric gadgets we were able to order. The starter - a mixed fry-up platter - was good enough to raise false hopes, but then came the main courses. Leek and chicken pudding in suet pastry sounded delicious but the pastry container had the appearance and consistency of an old flower pot, the chips were disappointing and the peas were actually OK. As for the 'home made' chicken korma, it had come from a strange home. Glutinous and devoid of vegetables, it was served with tired chips and chappati. What a waste of money. So how do we account for the other Tripadvisor ratings? Are there two pubs with this name in Drummore? What an astonishing range of opinions. Perhaps there is only a chef on duty for part of the week, in which case, choose your day carefully..

Fantastic little pub, wonderful menu choices, well priced and value for money, I highly recommend the Crispy Beef in Honey and Ginger.

Just ate here today food very good large portions especially the kids portions you must try the home-made steak pie massive chunks of steak and suet pastry absolutely lovely The atmosphere is very relaxed and the owners are very friendly must try if you are in the area
