Dining at the Nith in Dumfries & Galloway

When visiting family in Dumfries, we always come here for more than one meal. On a rare occasion where there is an issue, you only have to say and it's sorted with politeness, friendliness and no fuss. That is rare as the food is great. Decent portion size, home cooked, well cooked and fresh. The service is fabulous too, again polite and friendly.

Went for a family members 80th birthday ( group of 22) staff were very attentive, great selection of food everyone enjoyed their meal.

My first visit here and hope I can return soon. I had the steak and haggis pie - amazing. Excellent portion suze and so much flavour. Staff were great, attentive and polite.

I cannot rate this hotel highly enough, I stayed with my daughter and our room was spotless and amazingly comfortable, the food was great and the family run atmosphere and warmth was super. The view from my bedroom window was quite frankly spectacular!!!!!

Had another fantastic family meal at the Nith Hotel, had many a good meal at the Nith Hotel over the years when we visit Family in the local area. The food is always of a very high standard and good quality, excellent value for money, and the the Hotel has fantastic views of the river and the surrounding countryside. Staff are always very friendly and welcoming and provide excellent service. I always look forward to visiting would recommend to anyone.

Our family were on holiday at Glencaple and we spent the day with them. They treated us to lunch at the Nith Hotel. It was excellent in every way - the location, the dining room, the staff and the food. My steak pie and sticky toffee pudding was exacly to my liking and watching my grandson consuming an excellent 16oz stake (which was perfectly cooked) was a great pleasure. We have a photo to prove how large and well cooked it was. All 6 plates were returned empty and would thoroughly recommend to anyone. I cannot comment on the prices - I was not paying !!

Went with the girlfriend to The Nith as I've never been before, and after today's lunch we will definitely be back! I had the macaroni cheese with crispy shredded chicken on top, and everything about it was really nice; good side salad, garlic bread and chips, Mac and cheese was cheesy funnily enough, and the chicken was a nice topping. My girlfriend had the sweet chilli chicken with rice and chips and she said it was one of the best meals out she's ever had! Will definitely be back, also staff were welcoming and friendly, plus the location of the main restaurant is nice and relaxed.

Excellent service and a varied menu. Home cooking, freshly prepared and with great, friendly service. Went back a 2nd night

Called for lunch today when visiting Glencaple for the first time. Extremely impressed both by the standards both of the service & welcome, & the superb quality of the meal. We will certainly be back!

The Hotel is situated in the lovely riverside village of Glencaple, 5 miles south of Dumfries, next to the River Nith and the views from the restaurant over the river and surrounding countryside are outstanding. The friendly staff are welcoming and efficient even when the quite large restaurant is busy. A wide ranging menu certainly meets our requirements and the food and its quality and quantity has always been very good or better.

Third time here for food and drinks. Absolutely fantastic food. Never been able to eat a 3 course always been too full, the portions are big. Everything has always been hot and presented nice. The staff are so Friendly and can’t do enough for you, they always have a smile for you and will stop and chat to you if you interact with them. perfect settings plenty of room in the restaurant and nice big tables. Value for money. We would recommend The Nith to everyone. Can’t wait to go back. Too busy eating the food to take photos of the dishes.

Staying in the Community Car Park in our motorhome. Wanted to have fish and chips, very nicely cooked indeed. Not soaked in oil, batter was very tasty and didn't feel like I had eaten a brick. Well cooked and compliments to the chef.

Fantastic food, amazing service and the menu has something for everyone! Looking forward to our next visit! Perfect setting on a lovely sunny spring day.

Booked for meal 7.30 on a Monday night, arrived at 7.20 and waited at entrance to be seated, young guy showed us to our table, only other table of 6 in. Girl taking there order right next to us. Other table of 4 arrived and were seated and order taken straight away. 7.45 still nobody been near us so we decided that they must not want or need our business, so we left. On way out young guy asked if everything had been alright ?.

We had set out to eat at the Boathouse but it was full so we tried the Nith. The servers were so friendly and helpful. A large group had just arrived so I was worried we would have a long wait but the food came quickly and was fine. The hotel seemed clean and the 'ladies' was spotless. There are lovely views from the restaurant just like the boathouse so we weren't disappointed at all.

The family and I visited the hotel for Sunday lunch and were present with a wide spread menu of dishes on the menu. There was the usual Roast for lunch plus bugers and fish dishes. The meals were served nice and hotel considering the variety of dishes we ordered. The service was very good. Social distancing was observed and all Covid19 protocols were also applied.

First dinner out since Lockdown ended, despite the restrictions; no alcohol with indoor meal and have to be finished by 8pm. Service, food and company amazing!

Visited the area with friends in our motorhomes, messaged via Facebook to book a table but they were full. I asked if they would let me know if they had a cancellation, which they duly did a couple of hours later. Staff were very good & friendly, food was very good. Couldn't fault anything.

Came out to the Nith for lunch with a friend to take advantage of the eat out scheme and I honestly wish we hadn’t bothered. The food was abysmal. The Brie wedges were clearly bought in frozen with a little side salad that so went it flooded my plate. They didn’t even dress the salad. Waited a decent amount of time for our mains which were two bacon and cheese burgers. This was the straw that broke the camels back. It was under seasoned, overcooked and over all just awful. The coleslaw was a watery mess which I assume was also bought in. Can’t fault the young girl that served us. She would have probably made a better attempt at cooking out food than the so called ‘ chef ‘. Ignore the 4+ star rating because they certainly are not!!!! Don’t waste your time or your money.

We were recommended to have a meal in this hotel and it didnt disappoint. Food was outstanding and qould definitely go again if in the area.

My son and I have been staying at The Nith annually for over ten years. We truly feel at home and are welcomed with a smile every year. The food is wonderful due to the top quality meat used and just melts in the mouth. The staff are lovely and can't do enough for you. I personally like the full Scottish breakfast served while looking at the wildlife on the River Nith as it flows past, toward Dumfries, through the picture windows of the restaurant.

While staying in Dumfries we decided to have a drive out. Found this place and the food was lovely. The steak pie was top notch.

Staying locally in holiday cottage and we have eaten here twice it was so nice! We had a range if food from highland chicken, chicken stroganoff, burgers, lasagna , sweet and sour and it was all beautifully cooked! The pudding were lovely too! Staff also very attentive and Polite!

Thought we would get a few salads tonight as no one could be bothered cooking...'just nip to the Nith' someone said. Sounds like a good idea. However an hour later we were just leaving with our steak salads! 1 HOUR! for steak salads! Got in....ready to tuck in and steak isn't cooked how we had ordered it! £40 wasted on uncooked food, an hour wait and 3 salads! If you think about 'nipping' here for take away food don't! Hardly worth the one star I gave.

Fabulous restaurant serving a wide variety of dishes to suit plenty of tastes. The service very good. Spacious rooms. Great views across the River Nith

I always enjoy my bar lunch here. Great service, lovely cooked food. I'd recommend The Nith for a bar lunch with a view. We like to sit at the left as you go in.

We visited twice as a family in a relatively short space of time and both visits were not great. The food was pretty bland on both occasions and the service poor. We won’t be back.

We hadn't booked but just walked in one evening. The menu had good choices but what I really fancied was fish and chips. I can't eat wheat so asked whether the fish could be fried with no batter or flour on it and they said it would be no problem. The fish was delicious. The chips were nice and the portion was large. Really enjoyed our meal here. Will visit again.

After a walk by the lovely scenic River Nith estuary we wanted an evening meal: the Nith Arms looked good, it’s right by the estuary. In daytime it has a great view over the estuary towards the mountains. By night it’s pitch black but the car park is well lit fortunately. The restaurant was very clean I must say but the meal I had was disappointing: I chose Chicken burger and chips, the chicken turned out to be undercooked and pink inside, I told the waitress and she brought me another one which was fair enough. It has an excellent Trip Advisor status so it’s a pity to have to give it a poor review: if you don’t have the chicken it’s a very nice place.

We are regulars at The Nith but will have to consider other venues from now on. Firstly we ordered s starter of spicy chicken wings and 4 arrived for the pricely sum of £5. Then we had a roast beef dinner which was tough and a turkey dinner. The portion sizes were very very poor for the asking price and we left hungry and disappointed. Come on The Nith, time to pull up your socks and offer good value for money and better quality food.

The Nith Hotel is a well placed eating place. We have enjoyed two excellent meals there so far. The Gammon steaks and Sirloin Steak on Saturday evening were beautiful, then this evening, The Steak Pie and Highland Chicken meals were absolutely gorgeous! The meals were presented very wholesome and hot. Portion sizes were excellent, plenty to eat and very, very tasty. The staff are very helpful and friendly and judging by the standard of the meals, the chef and assisting staf are of the highest standard. I wholeheartedly recommend The Nith Hotel as a top eating place. Many, many thanks!!

Went for a steak. Had a starter which wasnt quite the standard we expected. Steak A bit overcooked for my taste but still tasty. Staff are lovely. Would definately go back but will have dessert instead of starter next time.

We enjoyed the sites and meal our large family shared here. A fairly diverse menu, with some items suitable for vegetarians, we all ate extremely well. With exception of the lovely older lady at the bar, all the waiting staff seemed to be extraordinarily young and unskilled. Chatting together rather than tending tables, cell phones visible and in use, serving from left and right, armpits in patrons' faces, scraping food on plates together to carry more plates, ... all very low-brow. The caliber of food and location (with a beautiful ship at port too) should warrant better representation by staff. More etiquette training required: it matters.

I have always liked the food at The Nith - there's a wide range and it's cooked well. But I've always felt it was a bit dowdy and for that reason I tried to avoid going. But now it's been decorated and they've bought new chairs. I now choose to go there! Well done to the management.

A very pleasant traditional and friendly hotel in an excellent location overlooking the river Nith. Such a pleasure to enjoy this ardent atmosphere and relax in respite enjoying worthy sustenance and super service thanks for a lovely lunch.

The hotel is located about 5 miles from Dumfries with views over the River Nith to Criffel - it’s a peaceful setting - and the décor is very traditional.

We were staying in the area so decided to have a meal in the Nith Hotel and weren’t disappointed ! We were seated at a lovely table overlooking the river, the service was very good and the gammon steaks we ordered were absolutely huge very well cooked and nicely presented ! And the puddings we’re home made and out of this world ! All in all an excellent meal in a lovely location ! Well recommended

We enjoyed a well cooked traditional style meal in a well presented dining room. Service was efficient and the staff very pleasant. We would eat here again if in the area.

Lovely hearty food, pleasant staff and just a nice experience. The dining room has a fine view of the river and beyond and this place is obviously popular with locals.

Been many times, been decorated and freshened up since last visit. Ordered my young children their meal to come so not huge wait. They had huge portions even for children - they made good job of it. We did however wait longer than expected for our meals as wasn't overly busy and seemed to be plenty waiting staff. Worth the wait though. Couldn't manage a pudding as get plenty for what you pay for.

Please refer to our earlier review, which covers the detail regarding food, drink and service. We hadn't been to the Nith Hotel for a long time now and I can only say that it didn't disappoint.

Ate here with friends nice location but food just average. Steaks weren't the best. Steak pie really bland starters not worth the money.

We live in Dumfries, so The Nith is in our neighbourhood. When we want a meal out, their food always appeals but I'm afraid the surroundings are uninspiring. Unless we get a table by the window, it feels somewhat depressing as the decor and furnishings are reminiscent of 30 years ago.

We stayed in Glencaple village, although not residents, the Hotel was very welcoming. The dogs were allowed in the public bar and the staff were brilliant and helpful. We used the restaurant a few times and were not disappointed. They also did weekday specials (Large...

restaurant does take away good food good price the service was really good and nice pint while we waited for...

We were exploring the area Unfortunately we forgot the time and needed something to eat at very short notice and...

A mí y a mi familia o incluso a mi pareja y visitar el nith todo el tiempo es nuestro sitio favorito para comer en Dumfries! Increíble comida sabrosa, nunca tuvimos un plato mal! Un gran servicio y un ambiente encantador. Recomiendo encarecidamente a la gente todo el tiempo! Deeeeelicious.

Fui con mi familia 8 para pasar un agradable día de salida tomó la reserva a corto plazo. . . Buena comida, servicio fabuloso en general un gran lugar para comer

Hace años que visitamos el hotel, que da al río Nith en el pequeño pueblo de Glencaple a unas 5 millas de Dumfries, pero nos paramos para almorzar recientemente tras descubrir la tienda Café & Frente Caerlaverock estaba cerrado debido a los daños causados por incendios.

Since the moment you come in we could feel warm welcome from all the staff. Food was excellent, cooked to order and very hot and tasty. Back garden quite nice and well looked after. Thank you for a great time.

roast beef and all the trimmings. perfectly cooked beef and vegetables. nothing to fault- big plate full too! friendly staff- very reasonable price

Great Food, good value for money. Attentive staff. Lovely to relax and look over the estuary. Extensive menu and specials board.

We were with dog so asked to sit in the public bar to eat and this we did. Bar was filled with men whose language was choice... made us cringe even though we do admit to the odd expletive.Food was good service was excellent and staff great... could have eaten outdoors but was a tad cool for that.

Been eating here for years finally had enough, that's the last four times we've been, our dining experience has been ruined by badly behaved children, the place has no standards of behaviour, we even changed and sat downstairs rather than the restaurant upstairs but nope still kids climbing all over seats and screaming. Four of us went we all have grown up kids and grandchildren and are not in any way anti children but the place has just got ridiculous.If you want a nice relaxing night out do not go near,

Never a bad meal here cater for Gluten free was struggling for Gluten Free sweet but made me a banana split other than that just ice cream... Always advisable to book as always busy Food all fresh and tasty

Both the bar and restaurant share a bar-type menu, with a wide range of extremely well prepared meals. Service is speedy and friendly. We had dinner here 3 times, and would happily have been back again if we had been staying for longer in this area.

Family table booked for 8, staff and service met very ones requirements. Food good value although decor could do with updating.

We ate at the Nith every day whilst staying in Glencaple. The staff are just amazing and so helpful. The service was second to none on every visit weather it was lunch or evening service. The food was all of such a high standard and such good value for money. We tried several different meals off the lovely menu. From Starters to Mains and desserts they were all faultless. I will miss this lovely place and will be my first port of call when in the area again. Wished it was my local although the waistline would suffer!!

excellent food and service,. Location has a very nice atmosphire, and the Nith river has a serene quality to it. enjoyed the walks along the banks, and the little shops in Glencaple. People in the town were very friendly

Hearty portions of 'pub' food. Excellent steaks, as they proprietors also own the local butchers. Working locally for a week, saw us become 'regulars' for about 5 nights. Didn't bore of the menu either.

The food at the Nith Hotel is excellent, and we weren't surprised to see the restaurant filling-up with non-residents. Triy the "steak special" - a 16oz steak for £10.95 - for real value. Bear in mind that it's thin-cut, so it won't come rare... The Seabass with vegetable stir-fry was a really good choice - though you can assume the fish is farmed somewhere in the Med - but no different to anywhere else. The roasted Duck Breast with plum sauce was good too. Starters are around a fiver, mains £10 - 15. Only disappointment was the Haggis with Whisky sauce: I really couldn't detect the whisky...I sould have ordered a shot from the bar and poured it on.. A hot peppercorn sauce would have been better. One point to remember - the restaurant is up a flight of stairs from reception and there is NO LIFT

5 of us ate here and enjoyed every dish large helpings of fish and chips !!! Gluten free no problem but NO sweet !!!!

The food was quite nice but the beef was not the best of quality. It was a bit difficult to digest, as it was last time we had it. Soup was very good. Unfortunately the slow service let the Nith down yet again. There is one senior waitress who is run off her feet trying to look after everyone and she does a good job but there are several younger waitresses who don't seem to do very much. They spend their time laying tables for future customers instead of attending to diners who are waiting for their plates to be cleared or for the next course. There is sometimes too much talking to be heard in the kitchen instead of all appropriate staff out attending to diners. Slow service lets this place down very badly indeed.

Just returned from a bithday meal for 6 and all are absolutely stuffed. Although the decor is a bit antiquated the food is excellent. It pub food but very good, reasonably priced and big portions. (16oz rump steak £10.95) The meal we had was excellent and so was the service! Will definetly be back.

A wonderful lunch the steaks were superb ,excellent service and most helpful staff made this a most enjoyable visit

If you want a good meal, then look no further than the Nith Hotel.We have been eating here regularly for over 10 years and, I can honestly say that we have NEVER, EVER had a bad meal.Everything is cooked freshly to order and is delicious. I cannot recommend the steaks highly enough! They just melt in the mouth, and taste just how you would want them to taste.If you don't believe me, try it yourself. Go on, do the taste test yourself and don't forget to write up your experience yourself.

While the decor is a little old fashioned, that is part of the charm and it is a comfortable light dining room with lovely views across the estuary. Very pleasant staff and an extensive menu of simple meals all cooked to a good standard. Can recommend the sea bass with prawns.

an excellent hotel to enjoy meals anytime in the afternoon or in the evening in a peacefull relaxing atmosphere surrounded by superb views over the river nith flowing to the Solway estuary . meals are well priced decent sized portions and using local produced products , cannot fault this place friendly staff always and used many times over the years by the family on average once a month .you will not be disappointed cannot rated the accommodation as I haven't stayed . stay local so use it for dinning out only . 10/10

I visited the Nith Hotel tonight on the way home from my day trip to Morecambe for High tea and I really enjoyed it, when you go to the Nith for High tea, the high tea package consists of a main meal of your choice, I had the gammon steak served with a fried egg with chip and peas which I absolutely enjoyed along with bread and butter and a selection of cakes of scones, the cakes are delicious I think the scones have been microwaved, but apart from that I really enjoyed my high tea. Plus the place is clean, the staff are friendly and the welcome is warm

Ate at the Nith when visiting family up in Dumfries. Been here a number of times and the food here as always been very good and the service matches. The food is very tradtional but it is a firm favorite when we visit the area.Will definitely be back in a few months!

Visited the restaurant at The Nith when my wife and I were staying in the village of Glencaple with her brother who is a local resident. The welcome was friendly and we were taken to a pleasant table in the comfortable, warm but slightly dated dining room.For starters we enjoyed freshly prepared and flavoursome options including crostini and breaded camembert, which we followed with well cooked and pleasantly presented main courses served on warmed plates. The main courses included breaded haddock for me and steak pies for my wife and brother in law. The vegetables served with the meals were nicely cooked and served hot. We did not order dessert but the menu options looked tempting. Overall the meals were of a most acceptable standard. and I would certainly recommend the restaurant for both local residents and visitors.

The food here is fantastic. Decor a tad dated and wi-fi is shaky if non-existent, but you can't get better food anywhere.

Waitress was lovely however the food was very disappointing. We ordered the special/deal steak at 9.99 with chips, peas and onion rings. The steak was very unappealing and dry. It appeared to be a cheap bit of frying steak which took up most of the plate. No gravy or sauce. Wish we had paid more for something more substantial. Wouldnt rush back

When you are in Dumfries and looking for somewhere you can have an enjoyable lunch then the place that I am about to review is the place for you and that place is The Nith Hotel located in Glencaple near Dumfries.I visited The Nith today for my lunch and I really enjoyed their lunch time package which consists of three courses of your choice. I had the gammon and egg served with garden peas and chips which was absolutely delicious and which I enjoyed followed by hot chocolate fudge cake which is absolutely to die for both of which I would recommend.Other reasons for recommending this place are that :-1. The place is clean2. The welcome is warm3. The staff are friendlyI would recommend this place

Went here with a friend for a lunch, and ended up having 3 courses, plenty of choice and the main of highland chicken was the best I've had at a restaurant. I'll definitely go here again & recommend to family/friends.

Wasn't too impressed overall from the service or the meal. I ordered a well done steak, it had obviously been pre cooked earlier in the day and warmed up. Staff didn't bother returning to table to ask how meal was until clearing plates away. Was difficult getting a drinks order taken by the staff also, when the drinks finally arrived there was some missing from the order. I understand it's a busy time for pubs etc, our table had been booked well in advance so the staff were aware of the numbers for that night. Much better service from other pubs in Dumfries.

Great food and service as always, good choice on menu, friendly and attentive staff. Very reasonably priced in a lovely area of Dumfries.

Good honest pub grub at reasonable prices. Pleasant, friendly, helpful staff completed the experience.

Two meals on successive nights: so good the first night that we had to go back! Loved the Highland Chicken with its very tasty haggis filling, as well as the superb local Solway salmon (wild-caught, unlike the great majority of salmon served in restaurants here).

This restaurant has a brilliant view overlooking the river Nith.Very busy restaurant when we went in at around 6.30pm. We were shown to our seats and given the menus with the food for the day specials.The menu adequate but not too exciting! ... having said that the food that was served was very good and well presented...and plenty of it!Desserts were also good, but don't go for the Banoffee Pie as the base is hard and tasteless. The décor is getting a bit tired and dated. The service is a bit slow and not over enthusiastic.Prices average.

Excellent meal and excellent value for money. Friendly staff also made it a very pleasant experience. The Hotel has a superb view over the river Nith.

Have been here before for lunch but first time for dinner at night, Visited with friends from Australia and the service was excellent and staff very attentive even though the restaurant was very busy. We all had different dishes and each one was well received in fact our friends were delighted at the excellent quality of the food. They also remarked that the tables are well spaced apart which is not always the case. The view from the restaurant is an added bonus Well worth a visit and will be back soon

The Nith Hotel in Glencaple, Dumfries has been around for more years than I remember and in the same family.Have been there countless number of times and never had a bad meal. The food is always good, prices fairly average and service always first class

A pub with a restaurant attached. An extensive menu. The food was very good and most reasonably priced. Couldn't fault it.

The Nith is a warm welcoming family run hotel. Great food and service, never been disappointed! Very reasonably priced and the standard of food is always of a high quality. Great views of the river all year round. Would highly recommend to anyone.

When you are in Dumfries and want a delicious high tea then the place that I am about to review is the place for you and that place is the Nith Hotel which is located in Glencaple which is located just west of Dumfries.I visited this hotel today for high tea and had a great experience, the high tea package consists of a delicious main meal of your choice of which I chose the gammon steak with a fried egg which was delicious and I would highly recommend, bread and butter with butter from Lockerbie creamery which is delicious too, scones with butter and jam which I enjoyed and cakes which are enjoyable.Other reasons that I like this place are that the place is clean and inviting, the staff are friendly especially our waitress tonight and the welcome is warm.I would recommend this place

The Hotel has a warm, comfortable and inviting atmosphere, During winter months the large open fire offers a welcoming sight. The main menu is varied and extensive as is the special menu which is often changed with various choices. The meals are cooked as they are ordered and not left on a hot plate in the kitchen to be served as and when.There is also a varied drinks menu.Highly recommended.

My friend and I went for a meal tonight. The main meals were lovely and no complaints. We both ordered the "Homemade rice pudding topped with caramelised pears". The order wasn't rang upto the kitchen so it never came, we had to remind the staff. It eventually came and was cold and the rice was uncooked. We sent it back and when it returned it was hot but still uncooked. We returned the dessert a second time and we were offered an alternative. Also the pears were cold, tinned and not caramelised. Overall dessert was a big let down. When paying the bill separately one of us was charged full price where as my friend got a free pudding. Was very disappointed that I had to pay for the dessert. However, I have to say that the bar man was very good and apologetic for the poor dessert just a shame I had to pay for it.

We visited for an Anniversary lunch for 11, we had a great food and service, I come here for a treat and the midweek steak deal for £9.99 is great value. The staff are always polite and quick at serving.

5 of us went for a steak. Only £9.99 but it should have been edible. Two were okay, two were a little grisly, one was inedible. We were told that one would be free, when it came to pay we were charged half. Poor barmaid was left in a predicament, it wasn't her fault!!!!!. We as a group have been regular visitors, but never again. Sure it will be their loss.

When you are in Dumfries and want a really enjoyable lunch in relaxing warm surroundings then the place that I am about to review is the place for you and that place is the Nith Hotel Dumfries.I visited this pub today and had a really delicious lunch of Salmon, Lemon and dill fishcake which is delicious and served with sweet chilli sauce which had a kick to it which I enjoyed and 8oz Gammon Steak with a fried egg served with hips and garden peas which I also enjoyed, plus the staff are friendly, the place is clean and the welcome is warm.I would recommend this place

Will go back again, thoroughly enjoyed our meals, very pleasant and relaxing atmosphere. Would highly reccomend Nith for a lovely meal

When I go out with my wife and kids we always come here. The food on this occasion was yhe same as always excellent. The Nith is always consistently really good and the kids are always welcome. It is also very good value for money.

I was here tonight with my husband and I ordered the beef burger with haggis. The burger was burned and I told the waitress I couldn't eat it. She informed me she would tell the chef. On paying the bill I again said about the burger to be told again that she would tell the chef. Needless to say I had to pay full price. If they want customers to come back discretion always errs in favour if I only had to pay half the cost but to pay the full price is unsatisfactory to say the least.

The Nith has the best food in Dumfries and has extremely reasonable prices with specials and always friendly and helpful staff. The decor is a bit dated and it's a bit of a drive out from Dumfries but always worth it for the amazing food.

We recently chose to eat here after reading other reviews on Trip Advisor and on the recommendation of a work colleague and were not disappointed. It was a busy Saturday night when we arrived but we were seated and served very quickly (we had booked our table which I would advise). I expected to have to wait for our food but again it arrived quickly and the food was excellent. Although it was busy, it was easy to have a conversation without the whole place hearing what you are saying, the tables are well spaced out and all staff were efficient friendly and helpful. Will return soon and cannot recommend it highly enough. Well done all!

When you are in Dumfries and want a lovely high tea then the place that I am about to review is the place for you and that place is the Nith Hotel in Glencaple just outside Dumfries.I visited there for High tea tonight and I enjoyed my meal of Gammon steak served with chips, peas and a fried egg which I really enjoyed followed by scones and cake.Other reasons that I like this place are that the welcome is warm, the staff are friendly, the place is clean and the food is delicious and plentiful with some specials thrown in as well.So the next time you are in Glencaple make the Nith Hotel your first stop for high tea.

My wife and I stopped at Glencaple Quay en route to Caerlaverock Castle. I checked the menu at the Nith Hotel and was impressed. We returned slightly early for their 5 p.m. opening and sat outside with the most wonderful views over the Solway estuary. We ordered their 16oz. rump steak meal and were delighted with the quality. We have lived in Argentina for years where beef is fabulous and we would have been happy to match this with meals we 've eaten there. At £9.99 this is simply great value for money. Desert was equally copious and tasty. The rest of the menu looks terrific and I'm sure we will return even though we don't live nearby . Service was very friendly and there were many happy customers being seated even though this was early on a Tuesday. Faultless!!

Been to this restaurant many times and decided to take my sister and brother in law when they came up for visit in May, and it didn't disappoint again. Food served piping hot,well presented and absolutely delicious. Service was perfect and all the staff were extremely polite and very helpful. I recommend this place to everyone!!

We went to the north hotel for my wife's 60th what a great night we had they were very helpfully and the food was beautifully and well presented with 26 of us was surprised how quick the food arrived everyone there said how good the meals were and said they would definitely go back for food and drink a big thank you to to every one at the north hotel
