The best restaurants in Lowlands

We were greeted in a most welcoming manner on entering. We ordered two toasted ciabatta with amazing fillings. Both absolutely delicious and the apple and home baked cinnamon cake and the chocolate brownie were exceptional. Best my wife has ever had! This family business of over 23 years is well worth a visit and is extremely friendly. Top marks from us 👏👏👏👏

Wonderful welcome , amazing choice on menu , taste sensations , everyone happy with their choices. Would definitely recommend. We had a lovely time. Thankyou so much for looking after us

My husband and I had an evening meal at The Smithy with a couple of friends on Saturday evening. The meal was excellent, as was the welcome and the service. The menu was imaginative and the atmosphere was very good. We would certainly eat there again if in the area and would thoroughly recommend it.

Just stopped off in passing for a coffee and scone. Excellent. Not one of the oversized scones that you often find nowadays. Very friendly and welcoming. Nice selection of gifts available too many of which are locally made. Will definitely be back.

Staff very friendly offered vegetarian option for breakfast and it was fantastic more than I could eat and even my husband struggled

Wow, fabulous food and made to feel most welcome. Dog friendly, Harris just loved David the co-owner. The Sunday beef roast was just the best we have ever had, a must. The food was so good we booked for the Italian night later in the week. The lasagna is to die for. Sticky toffee pudding with salted caramel ice cream was stunning. Best book of your going as you may be disappointed if you turn up, tables fill fast. Jason, Lesley and Harris.

Great food-both veggie and non veggie. Really reasonable-and the service was lovely. Dog friendly and if you’re in the area-it’s a must visit!

Very nice food and very friendly

Great welcome, varied menu, superb food which is very well presented, very nice atmosphere and environment and excellent dessert and coffee to finish a beautiful meal!

We have eaten here on a few occasions now and have never been disappointed with the food or service regardless of meal chosen and with nice cheerful staff and prices it is a great stop off on the way to the N Ireland ferries or back towards Dumfries, We would recommend this eatery without hesitation.

Lovely cafe with excellent food and service. The breakfast wraps were delicious, both veggie and meaty! Lovely coffees, too.

Burnt offerings for breakfast and it’s extorcianate won’t be back ever and when asked how was your breakfast told her terrible to be told oh sorry about that not good enough.

Delicious freshly made food in a quirky church conversion. Fantastic - build your own pizza, for meat lovers or vegans. Nachos were fab. Open till 8 as an alternative to the pub menus. Also does takeaway. It was minus one outside but cosy inside. Not licensed but no corkage fee so you can bring alcohol in. Helpful staff. Fab.

You know when your wife takes a photograph of the room key and sends it to you with a caption "Please can I come here again" you know it's a success. Great find by my wife for out wedding anniversary and visit to Glasgow. Great location, fabulous food...
