Went for dinner with my family, The food was of poor standard, only 4 out of 14 people enjoyed there meals, 2 meals could not be eaten as tasteless(these meals were taken off the bill), i would suggest the Jolly gets a new chef as i could have cooked better myself and i am not a trained chef, Such as shame as its a lovely building and the atmosphere was nice the food did not match this, i wont be back unless they change chef

Since the new managment took over its a great place to go for a nice pub lunch and a cold beer with friends and family, it has a friendly and welcoming atmosphere definately would recommend.

First time visiting here the place itself looks a little run down but it had a good atmosphere, drinks are reasonably priced, the staff were friendly and welcoming and the food was quite honestly the best pub meal we have had in a long long time all home cooked and absolutely delicious for a good price, definitely worth a visit if in the area

One of my favourite places to eat (and drink 😁) the food is amazing. lovely atmosphere, great staff and so welcoming for the kids. Put on brilliant family fun days in the beer garden through the summer months and live singers some weekends which is fab . Defo worth a visit if you haven't been. All my family love it here.

Was really looking forward to going for dinner. Arrived and was seated offered a drink waited 5/10mins for it then waited a further 30 before they took our order then had to wait a further 30 for food. When it arrived they didn't bring the sauce for the steak she went to get it only to come back to say sorry we don't have the ingredients to make it. Ate the food which was ok. Won't be returning

This was a gem of a place that Google reviews brought us to. The pizzas were home made 👌, the burgers and chips were great 👌 and the fish&chips was awesome. The fish could hold a door open it was that big lol👌. And the price was really fair. £66 and 4 of us was fed and water and we had to be rolled out the door

Service was lovely, but the server didn't take anything on board and forgot to bring things we asked for. Food was very small portions for pub grub and bit salty, which we highlighted and brushed off by our server, no apologies or offer to replace.. but other than that, it was decent enough for a family dinner. Probably won't go back considering we travelled over an hour for mediocre food.

Great pub grub. We have been multiple times and it has never failed to impress. The Jolly has a traditional pub menu plus a few other dishes to suit a variety of tastes. Our party of 10 had a variety of things from the menu and enjoyed them all. Portions were large & the food was well presented. Staff were friendly and helpful without being intrusive. Prices were reasonable. The building is all on one level and has a variety of types of tables, with the majority suitable for wheelchair users. Circulation space for wheelchairs is good at most tables & we were allowed to choose where we sat. There is a disabled toilet but access to it from an electric wheelchair is slightly tight. However, staff were more than willing to help with doors etc.

Visited whilst on holiday in Dumfries. It is a lovely pub on a housing estate, we were welcomed as soon as we walked in and told we could sit were we wanted. The food was great and tasty, we were served in a timely manner and it seems popular with locals which is a good sign. I would recommend meals we all enjoyed what we had and everything was piping hot

Went today as they have started doing a Carvery on a Sunday, and as far as I can find out only place in Dumfries and for miles around that does . I found this place on Friday so glad I did we had excellent lunch on Friday (review on Facebook page) but I love a Sunday Carvery well I wasn’t disappointed not one little bit . A choice of three meats have one or all three I went with the Roast Ham it was superb, wife had Lamb we each got three good slices. The rest help yourself including the Yorkshire puddings why other places limit u to one when after the meat that is the second most important thing on your plate, wow they were good , lovely mash potatoes and roast potatoes, a carrot and turnip mash , beautiful and I mean beautiful roast parsnips there was a third veg cauliflower cheese homemade it was bang on . Pity no Stuffing but other meats were lamb , and beef so I suppose if it was chicken, pork or Turkey then maybe but was so worth the trip . Staff were lovely especially the young lassie who moved us to a quiet table ( wasn’t noisy place but we were sat next to table of 8 and my wife is hard of hearing only reason) note to landlord get the message out about your Carvery and how good your food is and how polite your staff are. Thank you

Fantastic food cooked from scratch , great attention to details around my allergies. Had gluten and dairy free fish and chips which was a real treat the batter was superb , my husband had the ultimate jolly bad boy burger with halloumi fries which he thoroughly enjoyed. Staff could not have been more helpful. Not the most impressive of locations but truly impressive food.

As we approached we were a little out off by it's location but tbh once there it was as good as the reviews, friendly staff and great food in a nice clean environment. Easy flat access with everything on one floor makes it good for those with limited movement and a wide range of options for those of us with food limitations.

Lovely friendly staff, reasonable prices. Shame I did not enjoy my food. I forgot that I did not enjoy the chips last time, not many of them, to many bad bits, over cooked and hard. Chicken was also overcooked. The roast dinner was good. Also we noticed an over charge. There was 3 of us and we were charged for 4 starters when 2 were ordered.

The staff were friendly and helpful, service was quick and the prices are fair. It's well laid out with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating (both covered and uncovered) The original plan was to have a drink and leave but after 2 hours we decided to get fooor and more drinks. Extremely welcoming and would highly recomend to anyone traveling to the area!
