Laurie Arms Hotel in Dumfries & Galloway

Lovely traditional pub, good beers, brilliant pub good and lovely staff We visited with the children and they were allowed to play pool, was given colouring pencils and colouring books also Staff were also lovely!

This is a great pub with friendly and welcoming staff and locals. The home cooked food was excellent and the service superb. A variety of ales (cask and keg) and lagers are served in this Camera pub. We'll certainly be going again and would recommend this pub to anyone wanting a drink and/or a meal.

We decided to have dinner here one evening after a day in Dumfries as we were staying in a farmhouse nearby. The children were entertained with the bag of outdoor toys and a grassy area to play. We sat outside in the beer garden. Ordered the fish and chips and it came quickly. The best fish and chips I’ve had in a long time! So fresh and battered lightly and to perfection. Thoroughly enjoyed ! Our friends are coeliac and the GF choice was great! The really enjoyed the GF macaroni and GF risotto. Staff were helpful and friendly. We will be back when staying in the area again. Would love to try the Sunday lunch ! Massive thanks for a friendly, relaxed atmosphere and top notch food.

Brilliant Christmas Pub Quiz to round off the year! So good to see my local pub bursting at the seams with tables enjoying the special quiz. Staff coped well to accommodate on such a busy night, great food, served quickly! The pub quiz is always a highlight of each month! * we nearly called our team The Best Macaroni!

Our table of 8 was accommodated at short notice. There were games and books to occupy the children. The food including scallops with creamy sauce and pasta was delicious. Going to be returning.

Chicken Escalope was tasteless. There was very little breadcrumbs on it. The accompanying Greek salad was very small and again tasteless. Steak pie was OK. The menu is full of fancy things now. Lacking in pub basics. Dietay requirements were ignored. Top price for poor quality. Husband says gents toilet was disfraceful Avoid.

Booked here for Sunday night as we always head here when staying in this part of the country. We where soon seated in the restaurant and our order promptly taken. Drinks served and soon our food children’s giant pigs in blankets for our girls and two roast beef dinners for us which where really tasty. Everything was delightful and lovely and reasonable priced and always worth a visit when in the area. I am sure we will be back.

We called here for dinner last n the last night of our holiday in the area. It is a good local pub, but very welcoming of passing visitors. The food was really good and the welcome even better. I’d hav no reservations at all about returning.

Good local produce. Great value. Vegetables always very fresh which is great. Menu reduced over COVID but still good choice. Staff always really welcoming. Look forward to next visit.

We had a super meal here at the weekend (19/02). I enjoyed a delicious vegetable lasagne, while my husband enjoyed a chicken curry - popadoms were a real highlight ! Dog friendly too, so our pooch could join us, always appreciated. Reasonably priced food, drinks a tad pricy

Welcoming. Staff lovely. Traditional pub with roaring fire. Paradise. One step from bar room to rest of pub. Food is homemade. Quality ingredients. Haggis bites in whisky sauce are superb. Steak baguette sensational. Full of proper top notch steak. Lemon chicken excellent. A must visit. Parking outside and in their car park.

We have visited this great pub for the past 5 years on our holidays. The food is great, reasonably priced in fine surroundings. Open fire, very dog friendly, everything friendly. We visited in November this year, the fire was roaring, the landlady was from Kilmaurs! This is a pub not to be missed if you are in the area. First class.

Had a meal here with friends, great staff, fab landlady, lovely meal and lovely warm atmosphere (especially with the open fires!) Rebooked for another night… same again.. well worth a visit

Phoned late for a table of 8 with lady on the phone really accommodating. Arrived there & welcomed by friendly staff. Food was really good & decent choice of ales. Bill was very reasonable. If travelling to this area do not miss this pub.

The food is as good as it always was- outstanding salmon. The new beer garden with covered area is great. Love it. A great place to visit.

Had a really lovely meal this evening with my husband and kids. The staff were friendly and accommodating with the kids, the beer (Corncrake) was excellent, and there was plenty of choice on the menu. Katsu chicken and beef bourguignon were delicious as was the kids meatballs with tagliatelle. Good value too for great quality homecooked food.

Decided to stop here based on the trip advisor rating - so glad we did, as it was a great find! The pub was busy, but the landlady was able to find us a table in the restaurant. The food was great, especially the Katsu Curry!! The kids had a great meal too.You will not be disappointed!

Lovely traditional pub, serving good quality food and real ale. Landlady was very friendly and service was good, nice seating areas inside and out.

Welcoming pub with indoor and outdoor seating. Food excellent. Chicken Rice soup very good. Service excellent. A few small steps in pub. Parking outside.

Tasty meal full of flavour and all meal was roasting service was slow but it was busy it was worth the wait try to come back

Booked a table as had been recommended by our accomodation owners nearby. Warm welcome & Friendly service throughout and good Belhaven and merlot for pre-dinner drinks.Bruschetta and haggis bon bon to start , both quite canny although rather undressed limp rocket bit of a let down of a garnish with the haggis .We both plumped for the beef bourganoine and was very nice accompanied by mash and veg .£40.00 or so and enjoyed our dinner , good cooking .

We stopped by here on a rainy June evening for a hearty meal. The menu had good variety to choose from. We opted for the rabbit special and lamb. The food was tasty, classic Scottish fare, expertly cooked and seasoned. The lamb just melted in the mouth. Service was excellent , the waitress looked after us well and it's a lovely classic pub.

It was great to be back inside a proper pub, with a log fire in the bar too! The covid regulations are adhered to in an impressive and reassuring way. Current opening hours were clearly displayed outside, which is something other local places could learn from. I noticed a large covered area in the back garden and only wish it had been warm enough for us new pensioners to take advantage of, since a pint before our meal would have been great. We received a warm welcome for our 6.30pm booking and service was efficient. Ginger beer all round (!) and we dived straight into the main course. The beef bourguignon with cheddar mash and a good selection of veg was tasty and welcome as was the lamb shoulder. Finished with apple pie or sticky toffee pud and custard and we were out on the dot of 8pm. Only niggle was that the food wasn't piping hot but I'm beginning to think this is a custom in this part of Scotland. It is a pub I would return to if we come to the area on holiday again.

Lovely atmosphere despite tables separated for Covid distancing. Fire burning to keep the chill off, staff friendly, efficient and virus aware. Very tender roast beef for me, my wife enjoyed her sirloin steak.

We had a delicious meal here, there was lots of choice, the staff were helpful, it was very fairly priced and a one way system was in place because of covid

Laurie arms has it all - amazing food, great choice of drinks, super friendly staff and a cosy and relaxing atmosphere. If you go once you’ll be hooked ! We love visiting and can’t wait to go back

We regularly eat here and have found the food excellent and very fairly priced with a varied menu. The service is exemplary; I have peculiar dietary needs and these are always catered for. Usually we go to meet with other vintage/classic car owners but have also been for special occasions such as birthdays and anniversaries or when we have visitors including my vegan son. If we've been away and come home late and can't be bothered to cook, we call in and are always made very welcome.

We enjoyed a family meal here. There was plenty of choice. The service was quick and the food was very tasty. The pub was taking details for track & trace and was set out well for social distancing.

A family & dog friendly locals pub. Welcoming, friendly and accommodating staff. Excellent home-cooked food and a good range of options to choose from on the menu. COVID measures in place to reduce social contact. 👍

We visited this evening, whilst on holiday, with family. There was sanitiser available on arrival and a clear 1 way system, throughout the pub. Several other COVID measures, including antibacterial wipes and occupied/vacant signs in the toilets were welcome additions. All of the staff wore masks and were very pleasant and friendly. The service was most efficient and helpful, without being intrusive. A few prior reviews noted that the pace of service was an issue, however, we were offered drinks promptly after arriving and food was delivered without delay. The selection of food was plentiful, with something to suit every taste. We opted for starters including garlic mushrooms, smoked mackerel salad and soup of the day. The food was all piping hot, on arrival; aside from the salad, of course! We all thoroughly enjoyed this course and left nothing! Our mains followed promptly; including roast beef, haddock and chips, sea bass, macaroni and the steak burger. Portions were generous and again, we all enjoyed all of the food. Everything was fresh tasting and the dishes were evidently homemade. We were all quite full after the delicious food, but couldn’t resist the choice of desserts. We opted for Apple Charlotte and Panna Cotta. Once again, these were excellent and again, homemade. The meal, service and atmosphere were faultless and we would not hesitate to return, nor recommend the pub to others; it was thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish.

We were staying locally so the Laurie Arms was within easy we ate was really good and fantastic value for money. Definitely recommended and would go back.

Visited here , had booked because it was a birthday, ordered starters and mains , sat for an hour before the starters arrived , there were a lot of people who entered the bar area after us and all the food coming out of the kitchen was going to them , we had to comment to the waitress about the time the starters were taking . However when they did arrive they were delicious, no complaints, pity the same couldn’t be said of three of the six meals which were steaks , they were tough and grisly, I have cooked better steaks from ALDI .

Very nice local pub, roaring fires, excellent selection of ales on offer. The service was friendly and not too fussy. We ate and had gammon and chips and the partridge special - nicely cooked and we'll presented large portions. My only gripe is using frozen chips, a pub like that should really be cooking their own.

Went here for dinner with family and friends and had a lovely, delicious meal. Loads of choice on the menu and there were clean plates all round. Nice and cosy inside as well sat beside the open fire and had a great chat with Sandra the owner who is a lovely, friendly lady. Look forward to another visit in the hopefully not too distant future.

Came here with my wife for lunch and we both had an excellent meal. My wife had the burger and I had the partridge. Both meals were well cooked and well presented and tasted great. We had sticky toffee pudding for dessert which was also great.The staff were friendly and polite.They had some good beers on and seem to rotate them regularly.I highly recommend this pub and would go back again.

We were on holiday nearby and went for dinner twice here. The food was great - the kids not only ate everything but asked for more! The staff were lovely, the open fire was amazing, and there were colouring books, toys and games. Will definitely come back next time we’re up that way!

We needed somewhere to eat early as we were on our way to the Cinema in Castle Douglas. They do food right through. We ate in the dining room, warmed through by a blazing log fire. The food was good, above usual pub standard, and our fussy needs were catered for happily. The three of us all agree, pork, gammon and my salmon were yummy and well cooked and presented. Win. Unfortunately we were in a rush so had to pass on deserts, but the landlady, knowing where we were going, said call back later and I'll sort puds! So we did, 10pm gone, and we sat in the public bar and devoured cheese cake and ice cremes. Hubs and friend played pool, I chatted with a local and enjoyed the music - two local farmers playing accordions who kindly played my request. It was a delightful evening and despite the distance we shall be back. Thank you so much.

Staying again in the area we visited the Laurie Arms for the first time on Tuesday evening. Having had to change to a Gluten Free diet four months ago for medical reasons, I was very impressed that this village pub was not phased by this. In fact their menu contains a good selection of GF options. Food was well cooked and presented . We returned this evening and were not disappointed. Many thanks, we will come and see you next time we are up.

we had a sunday lunch here back in august food excellent service from amy and sandra excellent nice rural village pub

We stopped here to catch up with some friends for dinner and sure glad of their choice. This is your typical country pub atmosphere with wonderful service from the moment we arrived. The meal itself was delicious and the portions just right. All up it was an excellent meal with excellent service. We would definitely dine here again.

Been to Laurie this evening. The steak and ale pie, chips n veg. Was scrumptious. The pub atmosphere was friendly and relaxed with a real fire burning in the corner. The service was quick and friendly.

We were a group of 5 including 3 vegetarians. We had lunch in the bar area. The menu was varied with a wide choice of dishes. We all had starters and a main course. For starters 4 of us had breaded mushrooms with garlic dip and one had nachos. All very tasty and filling. For mains two had battered haddock, one had scampi, one had chicken burger and one had steak and ale pie. We all had chips. The chips were home made, crispy on the outside and absolutely succulent inside. The portions were very generous and everyone was delighted with the food. A good choice of beers were available and Puce Moose and Raven Ale were chosen. Really good well kept beers. A fire was burning in the fireplace because even though it was just the end of summer it was a pretty miserable day outside but inside the pub was friendly,warm, welcoming and cosy - as it always is. We have eaten here on numerous occasions and have never been disappointed. Highly recommended

My friend and I popped in for lunch while travelling through. A lovely old traditional pub full of character. The coal fire was warm, the food was good (we basically made up what we wanted and the chef cooked it). Given free refills of coffee and chatted to the staff. Really lovely. Sea Bass was very fresh.

Had a really good meal and very friendly staff. Unfortunately we picked a night with a very large family group in so had quite a wait. Our meals were exactly as we expected so would return and recommend

First of all il start by saying possibly it was an off day for the chef or a change of chef because the majority of the reviews are excellent. A group of 9 of us visited on a Sunday, we were but 1 the only table in. Most ordered the roast beef, couple the burger and 1 the chicken. I ordered the steak pie. We waited nearly an hour but that was ok because at least you know your meal is being made fresh. My plate arrived steak pie, broccoli, carrots and chips. Sadly the only thing on my plate that was hot was the chips. The stew was tough and dry, hardly any gravy and the pastry was chook Never have I experienced tough pastry. The veg was rock solid and cold. I do like my veg with a bite but I don’t think it seen a minute in hot water. Roast beef was dry and the same about the veg. I believe the chicken was nice but same about the veg. Sadly below standard food for restaurant prices. Hopefully just an off day for Cook that day!

The food served in this pub is perhaps the best in Galloway, & the atmosphere is welcoming, friendly & what it should be in a great village pub. Because of that, get there early as it is popular. You will have excellent food, well prepared and presented.

We stopped in for a spot of Sunday lunch in June 2019. We both had the roast beef which was absolutely delicious. The dog was welcome and we both loved the old school feeling the bar. The service was very fast and friendly. We will definitely stop in again the next time we are passing.

We (myself, wife and son) were on holiday nearby and were recommend The Laurie Arms as a great place for some pub grub and a good pint . Correct on both counts, friendly staff and friendly locals, good choice of typical pub food: steak pie, various fish, burgers and specials. Cooked in good time and ample portions, enjoyed by all. Great beer and a lovely pub, thank you.

Sunday evening we Went with friends for a evening meal, we had not booked but that was not a problem. The Hotel is a friendly locals pub, with "real ales". the service was good, the food was good, and the price was good. if we had wished to go in the dining room for our meal that was not a problem, so we stayed in the bar area with the locals

Went Tuesday 16/04/2019 after reading about it online line so glad we did. Perfect one best pub meals I,ve had in dumgal ever .

A fantastic pub with a great atmosphere. You’re made to feel really welcome and at home in this pub. The early bird menu 5-6:30pm is fantastic value and the food was fantastic.

We happened on The Laurie Arms Hotel in Haugh of Urr, near Castle Douglas in Dumfries & Galloway on a slow afternoon drive. It was relatively quiet, but with lots of character and terrific friendly service. A spankingly enjoyable two hours and two good bottles of house white! We will return there!

Found this little place driving around. Was quite small for bar and 3 tables further round another game area and main dine area closed. Lady welcomed us in and take a seat. Only a few poaple in at bar but all chatty and happy. We sat near open huge fire giving a warm feeling in place. Our break in southerness but glad we had a drive around. We had menu and we both had hot chocolate. Hubby order burger meal and i had steak pie with mash. We waited a while and once we recieved food ,we both enjoyed our dinners. Too full for puddings a good selection. Overall a small pub but food was lovely and lady at bar was very nice.

Wonderful atmosphere, and friendly staff. Very good food & vg value for money. It’s the hub of the village for a reason. This place is well worth visiting

We just had a fabulous lunch there with my Dad and a couple of friends. Great food, friendly service, very welcoming. As it is Burns Night tonight there was haggis, neeps and tatties served with a peppery sauce on the menu,delicious.

Myself, husband and son ate here with my parents and it was beautiful. I had the turkey dinner and it was faultless. The bar was busy with locals having a few drinks, and the atmosphere was very cosy, with a big coal fire burning away. We all had a delicious meal and we will definitely be back!

We visited with friends on quiz night. The place was packed. The log fires were on. It just felt right. The food is good and the staff very welcoming and efficient. We will return

Just called in for a drink Saturday afternoon and to check out the menus. Good choice with vegan and vegetarian options. Really friendly landlady. Even the locals were lovely. It's definitely in my sat nav history for our next visit November. Can't personally review the food. Next time definitely.

The Turkey escalope with creamy mushroom sauce was perfect. So was the sausage and mash. Very welcoming pub. Staff very helpful. One step inside the pub.

My wife and I popped in for Sunday lunch along with our 6 Yr old son and Cavapoo Stan.

It’s no surprise to see the Laurie won Camra’s Best Pub in the Area for 2017, because the Ale is top notch, and that’s matched by first class service and quality food and menu, with plenty of choices for all kinds of diet and tastes. My Guinea Fowl was truly excellent and my wife also raved about the Steak Pie; our starter of Calf’s Liver pate was delicious too. It could definitely win prizes for the friendliest pub around too, with all the staff doing their best to make you feel welcome. A roaring log fire with plenty of room and games for kids makes it a great place to visit.

Despite being very busy service was quick and very efficient,food was above normal pub standard. Would definitely return but not on Friday night

Had a lovely family meal here. Very good selection and also a good kids menu. Can also make the adult menu plates smaller in to kids portions.

Not the quality it used to be. Not too long ago, you could obtain a decent meal here. I wonder if it has changed hands or the chef has moved on.

been here a lot ,good beer (real) good food ..and good company. bye staff and locals..it has a nice beer garden.and a fair size car park..

Well I decided on Saturday evening to pop down to the local inn for a snack and few drinks not been in for a bit this place is good village atmosphere and popular with everyone so warm welcome from Becca who supplied the drinks and my main course I opted for could have fed 2people verry filling and very tasty food was prepared by owner Sandra a local family owned pub excellent

Visited for dinner during a stay in nearby Castle Douglas. Staff very friendly & dogs allowed in bar area, where the full food menu is available. All the food is homemade & is pretty tasty (would recommend the steak pie) Good choice of beer too.

Wir hatten nur im Pub des Hotels gegessen. Das Essen war o.k. - weder besonders gut, noch besonders schlecht. Steak pie und Rissotto mit Wildpilzen. Wie im UK üblich fehlte es an Gewürzen. Wenn man das bei der Bewertung berücksichtigt, war es eigentlich gut. Der Service war gut und freundlich. Die Einrichtung ist rustikal. Parkplätze und Tische zum Sitzen draußen sind vorhanden.

This local inn was able to accommodate a group of 8 and a dog at very short notice.The varied menu provided a good range of choice for everyone in the group. The teenagers especially enjoyed the burgers with added haggis. The locally raised roast lamb was delicious.There's a variety of craft beers and lagers on offer. We were welcomed warmly and nothing was too much trouble. Definitely one to return to when we're next in the area.

During a visit to New Galloway over Easter we were looking for somewhere dog friendly, having read the reviews for Laurie Arms we took a drive over to give it a go. We weren’t disappointed; a roaring fire, friendly locals and hearty comfort food.

Small country hotel pub with good fresh food. A good selection of beers with the guest beers changing as supplies run out.

This is a proper traditional pub serving excellent, freshly prepared food in both a restaurant and bar-meal format. The menu may be limited but it is well presented, of generous proportions and served with care. The facilities may be a little tired, but the locals are very friendly and the conversation flows.

My wife and I along with our oldest daughter came here for lunch, from start to finish was a brilliant atmosphere and very friendly welcome and nothing was a trouble. Food was exceptional and fresh could not recommend enough. We will definitely be back over and over again. This is a must to visit.

Visited here many times & the food & real ale as always been very good. We visited on Sunday night and the pub was buzzing with people. The main lady there is always very pleasant & the young girls that work behind the bar. We...

This pub has a great atmosphere. There were 8 of us and we all had a delicious meal - the chef even managed to make something off menu for my vegetarian wife. The children loved the deserts, particularly the Rob Roy Sundae. The beers were...

We had this place recommended by our B&B; host, and we are so pleased about that. It was warm and friendly. Warm partly because there was a log fire burning and partly because the staff were very friendly. The menu was changed each day (we...

Managed to end up here by good fortune and a little luck, as we had originally planned to eat out in Palnackie, alas the chef had gone to a wedding. Anyhow, we arrived and sat in a very traditional bar area, very quiet for 7pm on a Saturday night but this is not necessarily a bad thing. We shared a started, some nachos which were excellent and we both enjoyed the main courses of steak and pork. The staff were attentive but not obtrusive and seemed relieved to be quiet as it has been a busy season. It has been several years since we had been to the Laurie Arms, but would not hesitate to return fairly soon.

Was visiting nearby Threave Castle when we cleaned to check serving food. Most helpful on a Sunday afternoon with great choice of hearty meals and a fine selection of drinks. Welcoming for children with great selection of toys and games ans we even had a dog in tow. Highly recommended and most friendly Thank you

Called in for a light lunch with a beer, both very satisfactory. No pretentions, pleasant service. Dogs welcome.

food was good and not to expensive the staff are friendly in the place and a handy place for a...

The staff were friendly and helpful, the resteraunt was very dated and dull and the food was quite poor. The children's meal was very small and the burgers were bland and boring. The starters were very small and tasteless. Was a real dissapoitment sadly.

20 years after we visited the Laurie Arms and after reading the reviews decided on a return visit for my husband's birthday. We were very disappointed. The welcome was ok, but I certainly have received better. The place looks a little tired and in need of some modernisation as we recognised the stuffed fish in it's case from our last visit. The two waitresses who arrived shortly after us were pleasant but there was lots of whispering at the bar as they went around their tasks of cleaning the cutlery, which was slightly off putting. We both ordered pate for starters and expected a slice or a small dish of pate, but what arrived was a dollop on the plate, unattractive to say the least although it tasted ok. My husbands steak was over cooked and at £23 we expected much better. My scampi was fine but the peas and chips were bland. The extra portion of onion rings were plentiful but not nice in appearance or taste. We have since learned that the business has been up for sale for the last year and perhaps the owners have lost interest. Unfortunately not the birthday celebration we planned.

Had a lovely meal with a good selection of real ales on tap.Food was excellent and the staff were friendly.Pub also has a pool table and two dart boards.Well worth a visit but suggest booking a table

Our family (11 No) descended on this restaurant unannounced, we were made very welcome and the service was fantastic, meals were also first class, we loved the surroundings, will come again

We dined here twice during our 5 days in Castle Douglas and we loved everything about it. We had two vegetarians in our party, and they recommended the gnocchi, which was perfectly cooked with a very tasty sauce. The fish and chips were light and perfectly cooked, and the side vegetables were not overcooked. They have a good selection of ciders - we especially enjoyed the cider on tap, and the strawberry pomegranate cider.The owner is friendly and welcoming, and even put us in the fancy dining room, which was officially closed, when the bar was full. You MUST try the sticky toffee pudding - the butterscotch sauce on it is to die for!

An excellent meal with friendly and competent service. Real ales on tap and a varied menu. Service was prompt.

Called in early for the £6 specials.Very nice.The roast beef was excellent so was the sausage and mash.Friendly service.A very nice place.

Disappointed after reading good reviews. Desserts and fish pie lovely the rest not so good. Restaurant prices for sitting in bar and having bar food. Burger tasteless and in cheapest white bun (£10). Prawn cocktail consisted of shrimps tossed in Marie Rose sauce on top of leaves (£6). Left 2 out of 3 vegetables that came with fish pie - not everyone likes pickled cabbage and courgettes! Staff very friendly but unfortunately would not go back based on this experience.

My wife and I ate here twice during our weeks holiday in Castle Douglas. It is a very good country pub, nice log fires and very friendly and welcoming staff.Menu choice was very good - regular menu supplemented by a wide choice of chef's daily specials. Food is cooked and presented very well. No issues with any of the dishes ordered. Very tasty.Homemade puds to follow mains were good too!! (Yummy!)Pricing was reasonable for both food and drinks.

Real Ale pub with lots of awards. Excellent for hospitality. Got offered 3 tastes before selected favourite. We had already eaten by the time we encountered this gem. Food looked good and other eating patrons ate up and complimented the food.Will certainly try this establishment next time we're in the area for food.

Good food,real ales and withing easy walking distance of self-catering cottage.Even provides take-away menu.Bus stop nearby.

Visited on Sunday evening. I can honestly say it's the best meal out I've had in a long while. I ordered the lambs liver which was perfectly cooked so easy to get it wrong, complimented with fresh vegetables including red cabbage, a nice touch. Delicious and all for a very modest sum.

Homley village pub with traditional real ales on offer. Friendly bar staff. The food is very good too. Would definitely recommend. Reasonable food prices. It's also nice to sit in front of a roaring fire.

Arrived here on Saturday night to stay in our van on the car park. It's a lovely old worldy pub and the landlady was very pleasant. There is a variety of games - we played darts, pool, scrabble, chess. The cider was lovely and the landlady was nice enough to give us some hot water for our water bottles before we went to bed. Great little pub. Look forward to visiting again in the future :)

Friendly owners and staff serving excellent food efficiently. We visit here often and have enjoyed family celebrations on at least three occasions.

had our evening meal here in the bar beside lovely log fire, owner Barbara very friendly and welcoming. great food too

We were recommended this pub by the man whose house we rented (Larch House). We booked by phone but was running late on our way up from Cheshire, Sandra was fine when we rang to let her know. 7 of us ate in the bar as we had our dog with us, wide menu choice, good sized portions, lovely homemade steak n ale pies with lots of fresh veg, tasty good quality burgers, chicken & chorizo skewers, good pint of bitter, they even boxed up desserts to take away as we were too full to eat them. Nice quaint homely pub with ample parking and friendly welcome.

Called in at lunchtime. Great old fashioned Pub, excellent selection of drinks and some good hand pulled beers. Had a lovely lunch, all food is freshly prepared and really nice. Desserts also very good.

I have been three times to The Laurie Arms for meals and found the food to be excellent.If you are holidaying or visiting Castle Douglas or Dalbeattie area be sure to give this place a visit.Being only a short drive from the A75 why not break your journey for a meal---you won't be disappointed !!

Fabulous food, great surroundings, warm and welcoming. Well worth the diversion. Would highly recommend. All of our meals were fantastic, even the kids burgers were fresh and tasty..!
