The best restaurants in Tweeddale East Scottish Borders Lowlands

Had breakfast here on a busy Thursday morning (just before mums group with 7! buggies). Excellent strong coffee and bacon rolls. Great friendly service

Outstanding quality of food and coffee. Proper artisan handmade products, some of the best I’ve tasted, the cookies are to die for and the owner was extremely friendly.

We stayed at Windlestraw for the last night of our summer roadtrip. It was amazing and the food of a level we were not expecting. It was a set menu, everyone gathered for canapes and pre-dinner drinks in the lovely garden room before going through to the elegant dining room. I failed at a task I usually much better at and only took a couple of photos as I was enjoying my meal too much but every course was presented as beautifully as the two I did remember to immortalise.

Great coffee and scones late in the day

Amazing coffee, fantastic service. Great way to start or end a cycle in the tweed valley.

Superb meal, excellent service, great staff

Great place to stay, very welcoming and friendly, would have no issue returning

Popular place for an Indian meal in Innerleithen. We really enjoyed what we had and it was a generous portion (for dinner the next day). Recommended

This place is awesome! Great food, good vibes! Big fire in front to dry off in front of when come down from tracks wet....happy days!

Another gorgeous experience at the Garden Cafe. The food was divine as always and the portions for the money are quite substantial. We had quiche, salad, cake and coffee. All were fabulous and the staff are lovely and so accommodating.

Best experience of my life. All staff were lovely and the food and drinks were exquisite. Thank you to the lord for the opportunity to come here!!

Having spent a happy day enjoying the Great Tapestry of Scotland in Galashiels, we went here for dinner. It was Monday and we were told the kitchen was closed. The proprietor offered to cook for us though, as his colleague had previously said they would be open. We all ordered fish and chips. We were not disappointed. The best fish and chips I have eaten in a long time. Great, friendly service service and a good wine list. I enjoyed a delicious Sauvignon with my meal. Highly recommended. We will go back.

welcoming hotel, great location, secure on-site car parking, great breakfast, great value for money, really friendly staff who couldn’t do enough for you, would definitely recommend + stay again

This was our second visit to Loulabelle's, the other being in 2023. Lots of delicious food plus friendly staff. We had lunch before visiting a nearby attraction, then nipped back for tea and a cake afterwards. Not cheap, but everything is delicious. The decorations include some great pictures.
