The best restaurants in Hawick and Hermitage Scottish Borders Lowlands

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

This place is AMAZING. Their chicken wings are the best I've ever tasted. The staff are so courteous and friendly. Service was fast & efficient and the food was all cooked to perfection. Prices were very reasonable for the quality and quantity. I can really recommend them, and we will definitely be back.

Absolutely amazing food, staff 1st class and the decor is stunning. 100% recommend!!

Fantastic. 2.35 for 4 cookies is a bargain and they were delicious. Would highly recommend to anyone.

We had heard really good things about The Night Safe and decided to book a table for lunch, especially as Friday is always busy in Hawick. The welcome, the ambiance and the choices on the Light Bite menu were, all, amazing. It’s a good idea to discuss your choices with the staff who explained the multi cultural dishes, eloquently. We settled on 4 of the light bites (not quite as light as we expected, with very generous portions). We chose, Haggis Bon Bon’s, Panko prawns, Calamari and Bao Buns with chicken in a buffalo sauce. We shared, and, the Bao Buns with chicken were particularly good and we ordered another portion, to share. ALL of the dishes were absolutely delicious, beautifully presented and very much enjoyed. We’re really looking forward to our next visit.

Recent family evening meal , Fantastic .

Absolutely lovely food and nice staff

We had a fabulous meal here, I recommend the teriyaki chicken!!! Beautiful room out back full of fairy lights, great atmosphere. Great place to eat.

Lovely welcoming atmosphere, good food and service.

Had a number of great meals here, fabulous friendly staff that made us feel very welcome, great atmosphere with a lovely outdoor space to eat in summer. Can't fault it in any way, highly recommend for families or just for a drink as it has a nice bar area.

Really cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. I was just in by myself and had the iskender and sticky toffee pudding. Both very tasty and generous portions. Thank you :)

An accidental find when we’d missed lunch opening hours elsewhere. Needed something Coeliac-friendly, and DD did so much more! Could be in Prague, Krakow, or ….well, anywhere bookish and bohemian, DD is quirky but not kitsch. Coffee is good, mezze is great, and cake quality is very very good…and almost everything is gluten-fee (I could share a mezze platter with my gluten-loving g wife. All the cakes except one were gf). Slightly hidden away off the end of the High St, prices are decent, and its a peaceful space you could step into briefly or waste an afternoon in. Really liked the staff too! Perfect excuse for a wee trip from Edinburgh.

What a wee gem! Lovely, friendly and welcoming, food nice and hot, freshly prepared, a great little find!! Just travelling through sadly but would definitely come again if we are by this way!

Stopped in for some lunch today. Friendly service with a good and varied choice of menu. Offers half portions of meals if more suitable. Brilliant value. Hot and cold options available. Felt like the teapot was bottomless, think it was 3 cupfuls in total!
