Ordered 10 pizzas for a party. They were delicious and everyone enjoyed them, delivered exactly on time and came piping hot with a couple of containers of complimentary chips. Great service thankyou.

I drove to collect my order. I was very disappointed to find that there were pen marks on the pita bread and it was all drenched in sauce. I called to ask if I could send the food back and get a replacement. However, they were unwilling to deliver to me in order to correct their mistakes. I asked if alternatively I could get a refund but I was told that I would have to bring back the food myself so they could ‘inspect’ it even when I offered to send photographs.

These guys are the only take away in Galashiels that seem to be able to offer consistency when it comes to take aways. Myself and my partner got sick of the sub par options available elsewhere in town. Save your money and go somewhere that can cook food everytime you order, they are also flexible and accommodating when asking for extra's.

Ordered before 10pm, order is marked as delivered and yet its 11.40pm and we have no food. Called you and no answer. I'm not angry,I'm just really disappointed. You guys have quite literally the best kebabs and took a gamble on ordering direct instead of JustEat and you've let us down.

We were on holiday staying in the next village, for 4 days, looking for good turkish/med food. Found this place and used them twice. The food is excellent, really good sized portions and great taste. Friendly staff and food ready in good time. We had 2 specials for £12 each not realising that each one would easily feed 2 people, they lasted us two days 😂 Next time we're up in Scotland we will be back. 👍👍

Rang up with an order for 7 people and the food was ready in less than 20 minutes. None of us had any complaints, the pizzas were very good and the kebabs were probably the best outside the North-East of England. Chips typical of a kebab/pizza place. Friendly and efficient staff. Will be back the next time we are in Galashiels.

Probably the best kebab I've had in my life so far. Went for the shish and chicken personally but Mrs had a sweet chilli chicken wrap and really enjoyed it too. Fast service but think we caught it when it was quiet. The man behind the counter was a top gent and allowed me to use the toilet even though there was nothing in the shop to say he had a customer toilet. If we ever end in Galashiels again we will definitely return.

Love this place. My new favourite chippy in gala. Grilled chicken anything is my favourite cos of the big chunks of chicken, the burger or the wrap both awesome. But the munchy box is great value for money and a good choice when a few of u wanna pick on a few things, its more than big enough for 2 adults and 2 kids, we always keep some left overs.

He comido aquí dos veces y en ambas ocasiones he disfrutado de la comida, el servicio y la comida. . No es de sorprender que Trumbull es muy conocido. La calidad de la comida que se sirve es como resultado de cuidadosa selección de los carniceros locales y otros productores. Luminoso y acogedor, el establecimiento ofrece servicio de catering en el lugar así como la venta de productos locales al público. El servicio es ofrecido por un personal joven y entusiasta, y nada es demasiado problema. Mi consejo, comer en Trumbull en Galasheils, es un corto viaje desde la estación de tren de fronteras.

this is a lovely space upstairs which has great old fashioned feel to it, appropriate lazy music and great atmosphere. Food is good but not great - had a pastrami sandwich which a twenty stone labourer would have been proud of - great big doorstepping wedges of bread with the brisket and pickles inside - too much bread though and felt bad leaving lots of it. the fresh soup was homemade butternut squash but again too thick and heavy but was to be fair piping hot. The one thing though that lets this place down I feel is the service. Once again I found myself standing at the top of the stairs waiting to be seated in an almost empty restaurant whilst no-one even acknowledged me. After a few minutes I eventually got a seat but then again when tying to get my bill to leave, the two waitress were more interested in chatting to each other rather than watching for activity at their tables. its always a poor sign of a restaurant if you pay your bill and your plates are still on the table at that point. Its a shame this could be a great destination if they looked at the small things now and worked on how to make them better.

We were first in the door and were seated and served quickly and had an excellent Sunday brunch I had the "Turnbull's breakfast " which was a good Scottish fry up not too big but not too small just right, my wife had "eggs Hebridean " two bits of black pudding on muffins topped with poached eggs and hollandaise sauce, cooked to perfection , that and some good strong coffee was the perfect lazy Sunday treat.

Called in here after spotting it walking round Galashiels and popped in for morning tea/coffee/toasted tea cakes. Good decision. The tea came in leaf form in a tea pot with strainer, the coffee with hot milk. The toasted tea cakes were delicious and came with butter and home made jam. Lovely friendly service, pleasant surroundings. Rather wished we were there at a time for lunch but will definitely go back next time we are in the area.

We had taken the Borders Railway train from Edinburgh and had Sunday lunch in Galashiels. Turnbulls was open and provided a wide range of food choices: main meals, snacks, light bites, brunch and an extensive menu for children. The restaurant on the first floor was bright and airy with a view over the High Street. Our food was cooked to order and as we had arrived after a large party there was a wait before we got it but we were in no hurry. I chose Eggs Benedict and it was lovely. The service was first class: friendly and efficient.. Prices seemed very reasonable

Went out for a lunch with friends one of which had a baby. After being shown to our table we were left for 20 minutes before a drinks order was even taken! I shall point out that at the time there was only two other occupied tables of which there was 4 persons at each. Not exactly rushed off their feet.When our order was taken we also placed our food order. Our drinks only took a couple of minutes however, each of us ordered either a toastie or a sandwich we had to wait 30 minutes for these!It wasn't until my friends wee one needed changing did we discover there were no changing amenities for this to happen! Out came a mussling cloth and on the floor the wee one went.The service felt begrudeged to add on top 2 coffees and one sandwich and salad was charged around £12. I did query and was told that it was indeed correct.

I have visited here maybe 6 or 7 times since it opened. Service is usually pretty slow but always worth the wait as the food is delicious! However my experience today (10th Oct) was terrible! I ordered a single macchiato which had foam piled up like a Mr whippy ice cream. I had to scoop most of the foam away before being able to drink it and the espresso itself was burnt. We then waited 15 minutes after being served our drinks for our food order to be taken. My starter came out fairly quickly but it was only bruchetta. We then waited over an hour for our main course to be served! Two tables who came in after us were served before us. One of which was a table of 3 and the other a table of 5? I have had macaroni from you before and it definetely wasn't of the same high standard as my previous visit. It was very dry! Disappointed. Especially after the wait. If the service had been great it maybe wouldn't of been so bad! I appreciate it was a Saturday afternoon and it was very busy but (Tom I think I heard him being called) was doing ALL the work. And 3 young girls were literally standing leaning on the bar doing nothing. Preparing the odd drink here and there. Tables were left uncleared. Nobody was checking on our food. Nobody offered us more drinks or checked the Coffee was ok. A couple of other things that concerned me were the blue cloth the young girl used to wipe the steam arm was then used to wipe down the surfaces and then used to wipe the steam arm again! Then to add to that when dishes came from through the back one was obviously a little dirty and the SAME blue cloth was then used to wipe the cup out which was then put on the shelf. The girl kept using that blue cloth to wipe surfaces on the bar over and over and then using it on the steam arm. I appreciate the girls were just young but they were just ignoring your customers. They were not seating people when they came up. They weren't serving food. They weren't taking any food orders. They didn't check on how things were. They didn't prepare bills the poor man was doing this all himself! And it was a full cafe! Maybe they were in training or you had someone off sick but for 3 of them to be stood doing nothing the whole hour and a half we were there was ridiculous. Not sure I will be back after the 1. The poor service. 2. The long wait. 3. The unhygienic cloths on the steam arm making my coffee!

Had been looking forward to my visit made specifically to try this place out. Noone else in except the numerous staff all talking away happily to each other. After looking at menu which looked fabulous I went up to order as none of staff looked vaguely interested in taking my order. No sit down we will come to you. I sat and waited and the place started to fill. 3 other tables came in and someone came from behind the counter to clear dirty dishes that had been on a table when I went in. Finally someone came to serve me and I commented on my wait to which I was given a story about the coffee machine not working which was why staff were chatting. Hmmmmn really. Then as of course luck would have it they were out of the very thing I was there to have. I will give them another chance another day as the menu was interesting but the service was shockingly bad especially if they then are having to tell people no coffee! Zero recognition of interaction with customers and I speak as someone with a long hospitality career. Great location great menu but lacking in customer connection.

Late afternoon cuppa and cake. Nice choice of cake, can recommend gluten free carrot and empire biscuits. Pleasant helpful staff. Clean and bright, tastefully furnished . Looks like a nice lunch menu, reasonably priced. Will definately be back

A great find. Friendly service and delicious generously filled toasted club sandwiches. Super coffee too. Would definitely return if we revisit this area in the future.
