The best restaurants in Scottish Borders Lowlands

Stayed next door for 1 night and spent most of the evening in the bar. Met a whole lot of great people both staff and customers. Good takeaway food that you can eat in the bar- amazing pizza. Will definitely be back guys. Jimmy, Lois and mad dog Jess

Excellent meals, I'm a regular and always enjoy my meals. The staff are really amazing.

Booked a table for six for an evening meal. The restaurant was not by any means busy, bur we had to wait about 45 minutes for the main courses to be served. Four of the group had fish and chips. The battered fish appeared overcooked and the batter was rubbery. The chips were nearly cold. One guest sent their meal back and the other three decided to plough on as it had been a long day and there had already been a long delay before getting the meal. I had ordered a Caesar salad which consisted mainly of Iceberg lettuce and a piece of fairly tough grilled chicken. The sixth guest had ordered a half portion of lasagna which in our opinion should have been described as a quarter portion. All in all a disgraceful meal on which we were offered a 15% discount which was grudgingly accepted.

Very nice, not cheap but worth the money (now and then😀).

Visited here for lunch as a family of 5 whilst visiting Galashiels, all the staff were friendly and welcoming. Good choice of food on the lunchtime menu and a couple of specials available too. Kids meals were a good size as were the adults and we really enjoyed all of our meals. The caramel coffee was amazing too. Would recommend if you’re in the area.

Lovely coaching in on the outskirts of Edinburgh. Steeped in History and the staff and setting fantastic. Food was five stars and very reasonably priced

Stayed for two nights with my wife and thoroughly enjoyed it. Stayed in the oak room which was lovely room. The bed was a little soft for my liking, (but as I’m not a complete wet wipe and it’s practically impossible to keep every different type of mattress, I managed) The room had a balcony which was a lovely place to stand in the morning and have a coffee. The breakfast (cheese and croissants, yoghurt, and cereal) was more than adequate and a nice light start to the day. We didn’t eat here the first night as we went to the Indian a few doors up, but enjoyed a few drinks in the bar, a lovely pint of Estrella, and my wife enjoyed sampling a few of the cocktails. The second night we ate in the bar, and must admit after reading some of the whinging reviews on here, I wasn’t expecting too much. I ordered the house burger and it was fantastic, not too big, the meat was delicious and came with a larger than average portion of fries. The bar had a good atmosphere., and the locals were very friendly. I read some of the reviews and honestly don’t know what some people are thinking sometimes. Most of the complaints seem like a “you problem” it’s a fantastic little hotel and would highly recommend staying here again.

Visited this takeaway as has good review on this site,ordered chicken fried rice,salt and pepper ribs and chicken curry with fried rice. In area I live the chicken curry just has onion in it but this had carrot and peas.ribs tender and tasty but chicken fried rice very pale and yellow looking asif fried in butter and not alot of chicken.wouldn’t return if in the area again

Excellent service considering there was a queue out the door. We were really happy with our takeaway meal, which we ate across the road on the seated area. I work in the food industry myself and it can be hard to work under pressure with customers waiting. The team that were working behind the counter were doing their absolute best. Also, their ice creams are as good as the fish n chips, 10 out of 10

We have just been today for a couple of drinks with our Grandson Lovely welcoming pub nice selection of beers to choose from. A really lovely friendly person behind the bar as well. Locals mainly in the pub all knew each other. If we are in area will be going again

Love this place. Food and service always spot on. The chef here is particularly good with salmon dishes. I had the salmon with dill sauce. Massive portion and cooked to perfection.

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!!

Super service and super coffee.... backdrop to the river was amazing

Stayed here for the night on 2nd November 2024 and what a lovely hotel for a reasonable price too! Mike ( the owner ) was such a lovely welcoming guy and very accommodating to me needing an earlier check in due to attending a wedding. The room was a lovely size and very clean! Hairdryer provided and a lovely selection of tea, coffee, hot chocolate and biscuits etc. very nice quiet location in Peebles too, not far of a walk to the main high street! Would definitely recommend!

The best black pudding I have ever tasted!! Great fish and chips too!!
