I booked a table for 18.30 and arrived on time, we were shown to our table and at the next table was a couple along with their dog which I wasn’t very happy about. We waited about 10 minutes for our drinks as there was only two people at the bar serving and then waited nearly an hour for our meal. I was disappointed with the meal and it was served on a large plate which put me off, the roast beef was cut really thickly and filled the plate and I couldn’t see what else was with the roast beef, so therefore I didn’t enjoy it. They did take about £5.00 of for the wait, but i was so disappointed that I don’t think I will go back, as this isn’t the first I have been disappointed.

I ordered this :-Cod & Crispy Bacon Rarebit £10.95Grilled cod loin topped with crispy bacon and a smokycheese sauce made with Stilton and mature Cheddar cheese.Served on a bed of vegetable mash with garden peas,carrots and broccoli.The first thing I noticed is that the broccoli and carrots were from a frozen packet- lifeless, tasteless, plastic in texture and entirely unsatisfactory for any restaurant when the real thing can be bought locally for literally pennies and is so much better. Very poor and mostly inedible. The vegetable mash was of a suspicious nature suggesting something instant like Smash and if any cheese had been used in the sauce it was completely undetectable and the dish had not the slightest hint of a cheese taste. The 'sauce' seemed to have been absorbed into the veg mash as it had a slightly yellow tinge to it and no cheese of any kind could be detected anywhere on my plate. The cod was fairly good but any dish must have components which complement one another and this one was simply poor and very bad value for the not inconsiderable money charged. Two ladies with me ordered 'steak and salad' very clearly : when the meals arrived they had steak with chips and other things NOT ordered and the dishes were sent back for correction. Overall unsatisfactory.

We ate here last night. The food was good quality and plentiful. The staff are amazing, very helpful, friendly and well managed. What makes this venue outstanding is their approach to dogs. We were surprised to find a restaurant that allows dogs inside, but they also have their own designated seating area and the dogs have their own menu!! Amazing!! We had a fabulous meal in relaxed surroundings and will definitely recommend to everyone.

Average food. Really this written due too terrible customer service and attitude towards me and my friends while out for a meal. The guy serving us treat us like scum, we only asked for a straw . Actually turned his nose up at us. His service was about as nice as his shirt, absolutely shocking. Also they have a log fire and the chimney is clearly blocked as the whole room is filled with smoke. You can see the fog through the light. We asked about the fire and we were told it was fine and the young lady just walked away in a huff. I have asthma as do does my friend. Not good.on my way out they tried to make me pay for 2 drinks I didn't even order and said I'm not leaving till I paid for them, I left them the money and walked out then they came into the car park to shout and swear. Absolutely shocking. Overall it was as bad as it gets.

Outside fireside seats available at Lockards, take your own blanket and enjoy their covered area. Outdoor food and drinks available until 10pm. Limited seating so be sure to book in advance. Well worth it for their Malbec and gins, not to mention their prawns . Kids also given marshmallows to roast on the fire which they loved.

Stopped here for a bite to eat with my wife and 7 year old daughter.As expected there was a reduced menu as per the norm in restaurants all over Scotland at this time. I had the Halloumi fries and bacon & Cheese burger. My wife had Nachos and chicken burger and my daughter was happy to see chicken nuggets on the kids menu.Staff and service were excellent. Staff were super friendly and chatty asking us about our trip and camping experience. I could not fault the food at all. Waiting time was between 10/15mins as expected and it was perfectly cooked.To top it of my daughter cleared her plate which is frankly, a very rare occurrence.Will definitely be back here during our trip next year.

We live in the summerpark Estate in Dumfries and regularly attend Lockards for both drinks and dinner out as a family and with friends. The staff are fantastic, very attentive and friendly to both my husband and I and our children. We now know some of the staff by name and think very highly of Amy and Luke. We have never had a bad meal. The food is good proper pub grub and the setting is ideal. We went out tonight for a quick family meal due to being my husband and I 4th wedding anniversary and we received a wonderful surprise at the end of our meal. I would highly recommend going to lockards.

Went back on 1st Sept 2020 and the menu is dismal and not worth the prices, Burgers with un chew-able bits of either bone or grizzle in them and very dry and tasteless.I will not be going back unless I hear ratings that it has changed and the menu has been brought back to what it used to be.

One plate had to go back as wrong order. Ordered one dessert after mains but as this had not arrived by 14:45 asked for our bill.

After our disastrous Friday night meal in another venue we tried Lockard's Farm local to where we were staying. On arrival we were shown to our table and the drinks order was taken immediately and arrived within a few minutes. We ordered our starters and mains and the former was brought to our table within five minutes and were delicious. My wife and I had tomato soup and my son had the nachos. Our waitress Georgie In think her name was was both efficient and did her job with precision.Our mains were brought within five minutes of our starters plates being taken away And we all had the sirloin steak cooked the way we all wanted followed by our desserts of two Apple Pies and Custard and Sticky toffee Pudding and in all honesty I could not find fault on any of our two visits I must admit I am rather puzzled by some other negative reviews for this establishment as we found none of the faults that are there.Perhaps it is the fact that you will never satisfy all the people all of the time

Went in today for lunch! The food was lovely, however the service was poor. We had wanted to order dessert but after sitting for fifteen minutes and being ignored by the passing staff, we gave up waiting. The staff were chatting loudly behind the bar without a care for customers. Very disappointed as had been looking forward to dessert and had picked a smaller main so that I could have a sweet afterwards.

Lockards Farm is one of my regular places for a meal and I'm pleased to say that their Hobgoblin Gold is back on tap which in itself is good enough reason for a visit!The food is always good and well prepared and the prices are reasonable. If you love a good old fashioned pudding then I highly recommend the jam roly poly.It's a good spot for families too, but if you want a table away from the kids then ask for a table on the car park side of the restaurant.

Ordered Haggis neeps and patties with mushroom sauce. Firstly it came with peppercorn sauce which I specifically told them not to put on. When 2nd meal came out the haggis was cold and turnip??? Had a vague taste of turnip but had been luquidised with milk so was a form of baby food mush... disgusting. They put us at a table next to emergency doors which had a notice on saying "use front door" the whole time e I was there kids were running in and out screaming I was frozen. NEVER BE BACK.

A very disappointing meal. We had one of the specials but it had very little meat and tasted like microwave reheats. We asked for glasses for the table water but had to request more as they were extremely dirty - layers of filth on the insides which took some rubbing to remove. The new ones were exactly the same... we were regulars but won’t be going again. It seemed much better when it had a manager before.

Went out for a family meal and upon arriving we were shown to our seat. Our drink order got took straight away but had to wait 20 mins for our food order being took. The girl who served us looked as though she was trying to avoid everything possible to serve us. We ordered the two way chicken burger which on paper sounded great, however when it arrived it was caked in Philadelphia cheese. NOWHERE on the menu did it state this. This could be harmful to pregnant women (im not) but im not a huge lover of the stuff. I ended up leaving most of it as we couldnt find a member of staff anywhere. The fries were cold also. Pudding was delicious though. Went upto the bar to pay for our food & 3 members of staff were standing watching the football and discussing their weekend plans. Took 5 minutes before anyone even acknowledged me. Would maybe try it again but not in a hurry to return.

Well what can I say about lunch. The starter was onion rings, they were burnt and barely edible. Left almost all of them. Then the chicken dinner came with chips. Chips were very hard could not put the fork in them. Left them on the plate. The chicken was very dry if it wasn't for the gravy the chicken would not have been eaten. The dessert was nice. The staff were very nice and sorted out the payment. It will be a long time before we go back to Lockards.

Called in Sunday eve (party of 4) told only seat available was a dirty table near toilets in kids play area. Asked to sit in bar was told that they were reserved for drinkers only even though there was loads of empty tables and tumble weed blowing around the place. Table was wiped over so we sat down ....floor was filthy with left over food from the day. Sat next to a family with 2 excited young girls so again went to bar and asked if we could sit in bar area. Again told rudely no ....went back to table and we decided to leave waitress came over to take drink orders and when I told her we were leaving as didn't want to sit near toilets and in kids area she actually told me "whatever" gave her a piece of my mind even though was angry I kept my cool and didn't swear got attitude off her big time.

From the outside, the building is very nice to look at, beautifully presented. Lots of seating area, and parking isn’t a problem. Looked a nice place to stop for a bite to eat. We felt The food was overpriced and not a great choice on offer, however we did ask if they do baked potatoes, the girl said on a Sunday they don’t usually put those and the sandwich menus out. The nachos were absolutely anything but, the cheese, in places straight from the fridge, and at other bits over melted, to the extent of actually being like rubber. The nachos were cold, just out the packet, most definitely not been in any oven. I complained and returned them, they took them off the bill, as they were untouched, only tipped onto the plate. The meal we had was the fish and chips, it was less than half a fish, and the tail end, was chewy, not flaky as you would expect, over cooked. The burger was the only thing that looked appealing. The drinks had far too much ice added. The surroundings are very pleasant, would be nice for a drink. Wouldn’t go back for food. Maybe we just went on a bad day. The gluten free menu I was given was limited, not the best choices. There doesn’t appear to be a staff dress code, they were all in jeans/ casual attire, not sure I liked that. It’s nice to know who’s who in an establishment.

I visited Lockards for the last time yesterday, the staff just don't care about their customers! I had to approach them to serve me whilst they chatted to each other on 2 separate occasions but what really annoyed me was that I heard the staff talking about a customer in a derogatory manner in the middle of the resturant. This resturant really needs a manager on the floor to make sure their customers are treated better.

Just took my parents here for an evening meal we arrived and were quickly shown to a table, drinks and food order taken quickly so far so good, food arrived my dad had gammon very salty, the chips were Luke warm, mum had a pie again with Luke warm chips, I had beef lasagne which was piping hot, but for pub grub not to bad, we then sat with dirty plates in front of us, we decided we would all have a dessert, after sitting for 20 minutes starring at said plates, being completely ignored we decided to pay up and leave, not once were we asked if everything was ok because I think they knew the answer, we are here on holiday an area we frequent regularly but sorry we won't be calling again anytime soon, much nicer places to eat in the area

On holiday and came across this pub restaurant really lovely find. Huge food choice on the menu something to suit everyone. They have a family area for the kids and they also have tables set aside for customers with dogs which I love as we have a dog. Staff were very friendly and table service is offered. Good value for money and fast service. Would definitely reccomend.

Awful from start to finish, friendly enough staff, but that was all this place had going for them! Food terrible!! Hard sausages, half a pie with no meat, lack of gravy, just awful!

We visited this pub twice when on holiday we would have gone 3 times but they had problem with the gas and could only offer a limited menu which didnt suit us at the time. However the twice we went we enjoyed they food very much, it is not expensive and food come on hot plates too which is always a bonus. Good choice of menu and they also have a separate menu for Gluten Free food which is great also sell gluten free beer much to my husband's delight. Overall well worth a visit

My family like this place but I have never been that keen and it is all down to seating. Food good and well priced. Service very good. However you can't select to sit where you want and on each of the 7 or so occasions we have gone we have been seated at the same table or area. This table has uncomfortable small seats compared to most of the other tables and one of the seat pads had had gravy spilled on it and I refused to sit on it however as there was only three of us at a four table that was fine. The table is to the right of the bar - not in the first area, but next along. However standards are slipping and you should not be expected to sit on a very dirty seat. Hardly anyone is ever seated at the two semi circle areas to the left of the front door next the bar and no one is ever allowed through to the further area (unless it is very busy). Whilst there I saw a party of four adults over 60 being seated in the children's area, which I would have refused. Dirty door glass on the way in - a wrong first impression.

We went to this pub twice in one week because the food was really tasty and very good value. The special lunch menu had a selection of standard priced meals at a bargain price. The service was quick and the presentation of the food was better than pubs charging considerably more.

Visited Saturday 15 June. Pleasantly surprised by how nice this place was. I had the peanut satay chicken burger and fries and it was excellent. My husband ha d the ham, eggs and chips and enjoyed it. Only downsides was the ham portion was a bit skimpy for the price charged.

Popped in for Sunday lunch while staying at lodges close by. Seating arrangements good and staff friendly. Seated quickly and menus given. Waitress dishing out our drinks while another one was taking our food order was very rude and awkward. Plenty of choices on the menu and food was nice enough. We had looked at breakfast menu as a possibility for the next day but unimpressed. Waitress got confused when we were paying and inputted the wrong amount in card machine. Wasted time trying to sort this. Decent prices for the food and service received.

A little apprehensive visiting this due to mixed reviews however we can say that we thoroughly enjoyed the food. Staff were very accommodating and friendly but the menu is a little confusing but this is a minor observation.

Visited lockards farm on the 4th of June, greeted at the door and shown to our table by a friendly member of staff. Had our order taken quickly but waited rather a long time for the food to come. When it eventually came must admit I wasn’t too impressed. The cheese on the potato skins was like rubber, the chicken was burnt and dry, forgot some of the order so had to ask at the bar for it to be sent to the table. Manager rectified the situation quickly and professionally and offered all 4 of us free deserts. Service from the staff was above average but unfortunately on this visit the food let them down.

I last reviewed this place 3 and a half years ago. Since my daughter came along and given the proximity to our home we have paid 2 or 3 visits. I can't say any of these have gone 100% smoothly. Dishes continue to be served with elements missing, my daughter's fish fingers were grey when served, lengthy waits etc. However, on my most recent visit on St. Patrick's day my parents who were visiting asked to try it out. I was reluctant but relented. The place was quite busy. A waitress explained there was no space in the family area and no high chairs available at that moment but was able to show us to a table in the mean time. I explained the situation to my parents as we made our way to the table and said that we could get a high chair when available. The waitress then interrupted and said she couldn't guarantee that and that my daughter probably wouldn't get a high chair. I asked her how/where my child was expected to eat, given we would be paying for her meal, but she was not interested in helping in any way. We left and went to the infinitely nicer restaurant The Swan. That was the absolute last straw for me. We will not be back. Do yourself a favour and eat at any one of the much superior restaurants in Dumfries!
