Our second amazing visit to this lovely restaurant. This was to celebrate a 21st birthday and so it was a very special day and the restaurant did not disappoint. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, always so polite and helpful. Nothing seemed too much trouble and even my Coeliac requirements were looked after perfectly. Emma and the chefs even suggested some lovely tweaks to some dishes to make them suitable for coeliacs. The result was nothing short of stunning. Everything is presented beautifully and there was plenty of it too. All 3 of us ate everything and we couldn't stop smiling. A perfect day at this very special place. Oh, and I can honestly say the beef in my dish was extraordinarily good, I've never EVER had such beautiful beef in my 50+ years on this planet.

Decided to try this place out while in PortPatrick. Was really pleased we did. The food was great. The best in the area and we've tried a few places In the around the area. Really tasty and well presented. The prices were good too. Food was priced reasonable and so were the drinks including the selection of cocktails available. The staff were very friendly and pleasent. Service was fantastic. The best place in the area for eating out. Highly recommended 👌. Looking forward to returning.

Just had a great afternoon meal here. The food, wine and service were excellent. I would highly recomend. Two of us had the 3 course menu that proved to be amazing value and quality. My kids had burgers and the pimped up fries which were rated as the best they've ever had. The service was exceptional and very friendly. We'll be coming back.

Pre ordered Afternoon Tea for my wife and kids. We were offered a Sweet or Savory option, but as we had two adults, we opted for one of each. We were presented with an incredibly generous and vast selection of finger rolls, mini tapas style plates and sweet treats, all delicious. In addition, we were served by a kind, attentive host who humoured the kids and made sure we were topped up on tea! Price was £62 for 2 Adults and 3 kids.

Went for late Sunday lunch while staying in Portpatrick. Had 3 fabulous courses. Couldn't have been better. Started with bang bang chicken salad, tender chicken in a crispy spicy coating with a satay dressing and crisp salad leaves. Followed by a confit duck leg with creamed cabbage and bacon, little Parisienne style roast potatoes and pan juices. So delicious, couldn't fault it. Had to have a dessert and wasn't disappointed with lemon posset served with a wee slice of lemon drizzle cake, black pepper meringue pieces and a raspberry sauce. Fabulous 3 courses. Would be there at least once a week if I lived in the area. Don't miss out if you're staying within 50 miles!

Finally got to visit The Old Colfin Creamery yesterday.Beautiful surroundings for a start, not far outside Portpatrick. Inside the restaurant, beautiful as well.A lovely welcome from Emma, I really enjoyed my lunch here yesterday.I had the Goats Cheese with golden sultana & walnut terrine and beetroot purée and herb salad for my starter. Followed by the Colfin Steak Burger for my main. The burger was just perfect, as were the fries and onion rings. Both courses were so tasty. Perfect size portions.If you’re ever in Galloway or even in the south-west of the country, definitely worth a visit.

The staff are top class from arrival until we leave, very attentive without being pushy - hope you know what i mean by this - Food has been excellent every time. Small menu which we think means prepared and cooked by the chief. All in all a excellent small restaurant. Next time we are in the area we will be visiting again without a doubt.

This is fine dining of the highest order, all in an old creamery in the beautiful Galloway countryside near Portpatrick. My dining partner and I selected from the Two Plus a Coo set menu - excellent value for money at £20 pp for 2 courses or £25 pp for 3 courses (plus tea/coffee). I can only say that the three courses I had - Hot Smoked Salmon Salad, Roast Rump of Lamb and Chocolate Mousse were absolutely perfectly cooked and delicious - the lamb and the chocolate mousse in particular were exceptional. Value for money is also excellent. I would be back like a shot if I lived nearer. I was pleased to hear they are recovering following lockdown and hope very much they go from strength to strength.

We have tried most of the restaurants and cafes in the Stranraer/Rhins area, and to be fair the standard is not bad. Some better than others of course, but a lot better than it was 10-15 years ago.For some reason, whenever we have been passing the Colfin Creamery (which I loved when it was the smokehouse several years ago) it was either closed or about to close. So this time we decided to actually book a table and do the job properly. In fact "do the job properly" is a very good choice of words, as this is exactly what they do!Excellent food served in delightful ambiance. Friendly but efficient. Will definitely be back!

Neither of us knew anything about this restaurant but decided to try it based on other reviews. So glad we did! We were given a very nice welcome and seated by the log burner after requesting a cosy seat. No rush to make our choices and all questions answered fully by our friendly but professional host . I normally eat out hoping for even one thing I really fancy (okay so I’m choosy) but here I was spoiled for choice in starters and mains. Both my friend and I chose very different things so a bit of swapping ensued and we both liked everything! Sadly no space left for deserts but excellent tea and coffee finished off a great experience. Lovely food presentation, ambience and cloakrooms added to the attractive modern styling.Excellent in all aspects. Definitely worth the pleasant drive.

Visited The Old Colfin Creamery after it was recommended by a friend. Great recommendation. We initially went for lunch. Excellent food and very professional service. I got the steak pie which I would heartily recommend. My partner got the garlic chilli chicken which she loved. Sides off home made onion rings were soooo addictive, beautiful with a garlic mayonnaise dip and the sweet potato fries were excellent. We shared a sweet. Deep fried brownies - absolutely devine. I now get cravings for them, served with a butterscotch sauce, all the sweets looked lovely. We saw that a lot of the other diners were eating the afternoon tea. You have to book 24 hrs in advance. So we did. Returned two days later for the afternoon tea. Defo recommend this, it was excellent. A great venue, very helpful, professional & friendly staff. Excellent food. We will be back

Encouraged by reviews, and seeking somewhere different to eat on our second night visiting Portpatrick, we chose The Old Colfin Creamery. I remembered the building well from its days as a creamery and it was great to see it put to such excellent new uses. Meal was delicious and service excellent. Only problem was the size of the portions! Excellent if you're hungry, as we were, but avoid if you can't do justice to the high quality of food!

I am skeptical of all 5-star reviews so when we were in Portpatrick a couple of weeks ago we stopped in for a light lunch. 3 of us shared a plate of nachos, not your typical southern Californian standard, but the chef's own take with home-made tortilla chips, and all the better for it. With this excellent start we booked for dinner. Liver pate is a standard but again the chef distinguished it by leaving it with some texture, and accompanied by a delicious chutney and crusty bread. We followed this with sea bass, pork and vegetable tempurs, all excellently cooked and presented. Finished by sharing an Eton Mess which again was made unique by the tartness of the coulis.

My husband and I ate here recently, and were really impressed. The food was delicious, there was a great choice on the menu, the restaurant was very nicely presented and had a lovely atmosphere, and the staff were brilliant. We both had main courses and desserts. My husband is part-dog, so basically eats anything happily, but I have tonnes of dietary issues and eating out is something that can be quite tricky. The Old Colfin Creamery caters for many issues, unprompted, and will also cater for everything if they get advance warning. It's still surprisingly uncommon for restaurants to go to this trouble in cities never mind more isolated rural spots so this was great to find out and we will definitely be eating here whenever we can. Lisa took our booking and served us, and she was great, despite my husband being deliberately annoying after finding out they both hailed from the same area. I felt apologetic enough on his behalf to buy the £9.50 bottle of wine from Morrisons that she recommended, and it was delicious. I drank it all. Craig didn't get any Lisa.

This was my second visit and once again it was thoroughly enjoyable. Very pleasant surroundings, much thought has gone into the decor with the milk churns being used as table stands, the creamery theme continues with the miniature milk bottle brought with my coffee. Crockery and cutlery are of a high spec giving an overall feeling of quality. The owner and staff are efficient and friendly and seem to enjoy their work judging by the amount of laughter they shared. There is an excellent choice for every course and the wine list is impressive for a fairly small establishment. The steak and ale pie was superb, the portion just right with four accompanying veg.

Make the trip out to this amazing restaurant and you will not be disappointed. The quality and presentation of the food is outstanding. Freshly prepared, bursting with flavour and a fresh quirkinesses that will take your breath away. The pickled veggies were divine and oh so complimented the fish cakes. Then I spotted two ladies delighting in an afternoon tea ... WOW ... now I’ve had many afternoon teas but this one far outshone some 5 star hotels ... but you have to book as each little delicacy is prepared especially for you, none of this mass prepared stuff with sad sandwiches here .. it’s the real deal! You can choose from savoury or sweet ... certainly be back next time in the area. The staff are so welcoming and can’t do enough to make sure everything is perfect for you. Thank you ladies!

I recently had afternoon tea which the staff prepared specially for a gluten free diet. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and cannot praise the staff enough for the time and effort they made.

This was my first visit to The Old Colfin and won't be my last. Three of my party had afternoon tea (with dietary requirements) and this wasn't an issue. Afternoon tea is exceptional value at only £16! Far superior to many high class hotels who charge nearly double! My dad ordered off the main menu and thoroughly enjoyed his meal, his only complaint was that there was too much food ! Staff were so pleasant, nothing was too much trouble. Great food and excellent value for money!!!

This is a very special place. For a special occasion or for an informal gathering you will be made to feel very welcome here. The food is creative and innovative and there is plenty of choice for vegetarians and vegans. I sometimes struggle for variety with large menus but this perfect select menu is a great. Great service - a real treat

Family of four booked at short notice and they produced a lovely meal.One member of family is a vegan and they were able to provide a meal with no advance notice.They said with more notice they could provide a wider choice of meals for vegans.

We had been looking forward to our Christmas meal here for a long time and were not disappointed. We were immediately made to feel welcome by one of the owners Emma who quickly had us seated and relaxed.

We visited this place for the first time on 1st December 2018, it was perfect!! The fact that it's a small place makes it what it is, it's so lovely, friendly, food was perfect!

Anyone know what has happened to this company? It had rave reviews, I had friends who had ordered from them but poof they now cease to exist. No media explanation. Web site closed with no message. Very odd as they seemed to be doing a roaring trade.

Lovely to see this smashing little cafe open and busy we have been several times before and are never disappointed. This time chose the margarita pizza with loaded wedges, fresh and tasty . Such a friendly welcome and delicious food we will be back very soon.

Had lovely takeaway here on Wednesday whilst staying in Stranraer. It was delicious. I had tofu and vegetable curry with egg fried rice. My partner had chicken chow mein. We asked for delivery to our airbnb. I put the phone down at 530pm and at 540pm the delivery driver was knocking at our door. We would definitely order from there again.
