Excellent find for lunch for a family of four. The food was excellent and the service efficient but not rushed. Highly recommend. And you must try the cakes!

Looked like a nice place, despite a rather abrupt “you can’t bring dogs in here” from one of the servers, we decided to give it a go. It was ok, save the soup, which was carrot, orange and coconut, sorry but singularly one of the worst things I have ever tasted!! Overall the service was a bit off and abrupt

Food was lovely but the service from one member of staff was shocking. The lady with grey hair was rude didn’t speak at all . Took our order and walked away and didn’t say a word, don’t think iv ever experienced this anywhere. Made us feel awkward or it was a bother to take our order. Not friendly or welcoming at all.

We went in here today after having visited the Abbey and to get out of the weather. The service from Vikki was friendly, attentive and totally welcoming. I can say the same applies to the other members of staff on duty today. I had the Scottish Steak Mince Burger which I have to say was both substantial and delicious 😋 My friend said the same about her meal too. Just a smashing place to go and I happily recommend

This was our second visit to this lovely cafe. You will find fantastic food with a Scottish twist and great hospitality. The salmon flatbread was delicious. Lots of lovely cakes as well as some Scottish themed gifts for sale. It was certainly busy but that speaks for itself. No surprise it seems to be a well known spot with the locals. If you are travelling on the A68 or visiting Jedburgh it is well worthy of a lunch or coffee stop.

This is a lovely place with great service (yes, it's busy - for a reason!) and good food. Definitely worth a detour. However it is really not great for gluten-free. There's usually a cake (very sweet and rather too much icing) and a traybake, but if you don't have a sweet tooth you are in trouble. They do offer gluten-free bread but it is really nasty and you get a much smaller portion (which also means much smaller sandwiches) for the same price. And three small oatcakes doesn't really cut it as a substitute for a roll with soup. They used to do far more gluten-free food but now it really isn't a place I (or my fellow coeliacs) would choose.

I run a group for adults with learning disabilities and we go out for lunch together a couple of times a month. We have visited Simply Scottish twice this year and they are always so welcoming and friendly to us! Some of the group members need a little extra time to read the menu or make a decision about what to order, as well as paying at the end, but the staff at Simply Scottish are very understanding and give everyone the time and help they need. The group told me they would recommend the cheese burgers and the biscoff traybake to others after our visit today. Thank you for the welcoming atmosphere and a very tasty lunch both times we have been in!

Came here for breakfast on the last day of our holiday as a family of 5. Friendly welcoming staff and a good choice of breakfast items on the menu. The drinks & food took a while to come but the place was really busy so understandable. Everything we had was delicious and tasted fresh and the biscoff latte was so good. We got some cakes to take away for later on and these were all delicious too, can highly recommend the apple & cinnamon cake it was amazing and all reasonably priced too. Would love to visit again and try out the lunch menu!

Attitude of staff is terrible. Told ‘no room at the inn’ on sight (booked tables). They were almost saved by a very polite gentleman who said we could have their table (he noticed too). Waitress took her annoyance out on him initially’have to wipe this table first’. Our first choice wasn’t available (?) We waited approximately 35 minutes - still no food. We left - staff need anti-discriminatory training.

What a gem of a find!!! In the rain we didn’t want to walk too far following our visit to Alnwick Castle. We decided to give this place a try and was not disappointed! The sandwich and flat bread that we ordered were very generous with filling/topping and very tasty. The walls were decorated with beautiful prints in frames very reasonably priced. Our very reasonably priced lunch turned into an expensive one as we bought a number of cards and two prints!!! The staff were very friendly and efficient.

Quiet traditional wee cafe, few old ladies having lunch. Lentil soup good & wholesome but cullen skink was, for me, far too creamy which made it quite heavy. Would have preferred the option of crunchy bread rather than a slice of soft pan loaf but at least bread was brown. £10 for two plates of soup, no drinks.

I ordered the vegan haggis, neeps and tatties that came with onion chutney and parsnip crisps... phenomenal! Beautifully presented and tasted amazing. There was also a good selection of vegan cakes to tuck into after lunch but we were too full. My partner ordered the Gammon, egg and chips and enjoyed an Amber ale as he doesn't have to drive home. He has Type 1 Diabetes and the staff were happy to help him out by weighing the chips so he could calculate what insulin to take. Great overall service and atmosphere.

Popped in for a coffee and cake . No warm welcome despite only being 2 other customers in. Older assistant clearly wasn't in the mood for customer service as she banged around with a face like fizz. When she got round to taking our order, she managed it without so much as a word or a smile. My wife went up to pay and as she took her card out, the woman reached over with the card machine and tapped it on the card again without a word or even confirming my wife wished to pay contactless. She could learn much from the younger staff if they wish to have returning business. I would point out we have been a number of times before and always had good service. Maybe she was having a bad day but you don't bring bad days to work with you

On our first visit we had a dog, which was provided water and a couple of treats at one of the 3 or 4 outside tables.

I have visited Simply Scottish numerous times by myself and with friends and yet the customer service has never been top notch however staff still pleasant enough, having previously worked in hospitality myself I know the pressures of busy times however after being in simply looking for a takeaway coffee today I feel it is the last straw after previously been spoke to in a rude mannerism and giving it the benefit of the doubt. I was told there was “loads of orders and to take a seat” to which my response was ‘don’t worry I’m only looking for a takeaway coffee” to which the front of house member of staff responded with “ well I have loads of orders take a seat...” I left pretty much immediately after tell her that “I’ll just leave it thanks” i don’t appreciate being spoken to like that and not to mention has please and thank you ever been highlighted in this lady’s vocabulary?

This little cafe was an excellent choice for lunch. The staff were friendly and prompt with our order. The food was tasty and wholesome, and the tray bakes were something else. I would recommend stopping in for a bite if you're in the vacinity.

Late lunch, so not as busy as it has been when we have been earlier. However, we waited a while to be served. Once served, things ran much more smoothly. We chose Cullen Skink, which comes with either bread or oatcakes. The bread was chunky and fresh. The soup was extremely tasty. They were happy to provide iced tap water to accompany. Finished with coffees.

I had a chicken wrap and a toffee cake here, and they were absolutely fantastic, the wrap was huge and both were very tasty. The staff were very friendly. I would recommend this place.

Visited this establishment several times during our holiday in Jedburgh. Each time the food was very good and plenty of it. Good service at all times. Well worth a visit or two if in Jedburgh.

I would be lying if I said the food was bad. It wasnt bad, but very overpriced and average.

We were in Selkirk, looking for a few bits and pieces. It was lunchtime and we’d heard good things about this restaurant.we certainly weren’t disappointed, it exceeded our expectations.

Had lunch here with my best friend and daughter (2yrs old). The food was fantastic and portion size huge (which was excellent as we were very hungry). As we’re here for a week with family we may be back!

The day we were in Jedburgh, the eatery suggested by the lady at the chocolate shop was closed, so we popped into Simply Scottish instead. What a wise choice! The sandwiches were absolutely enormous, very tasty and beautifully presented. We would most certainly visit again if we were ever in the area.

Can't comment on the rooms as I was only in for lunch, but they have an exceptionally good menu with great choice of pies (game pie displayed with duck+haggis).

Room was very big although quite dated. Unfortunately the plughole in the bath was full of hairs and the cleanliness of the room in general wasn't great. The public areas have been renovated and are much better. The breakfast was basic but fine, the girls serving were very friendly. The receptionists on arrival and departure were a little brusque and not very welcoming. Excellent location in the square.

Group of 3 couple and. Great Dane warmly welcomed for dinner on Friday night and then back for drinks on Saturday to watch the F1 qualifier which the manager kindly out on one set of screens for us. Great food, brilliant atmosphere with lively banter and a good out door under cover and heated area for drink and music as well as sports on TV. Manager and his staff were excellent, calm despite being busy, welcoming and helpful. The manager deserves recognition for a well run but easy going establishment that we would highly recommend. We will be back on our next trip.

Great little cafe. Excellent bacon, sausage, and egg role for the price. Coffee was ok. Opens early.
