The best restaurants in Scottish Borders Lowlands

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.

Lovely coffee and ham and mozzarella cheese toastie! Very pleasant staff and accommodating! Will definitely come again.

What an amazing cafe plenty of gluten free options to choose from all very tasty mocha coffee and they post out gluten free item in the post whoop whoop what a find

Wonderful hosts. Lovely food. We went for a meal with friends on Friday night and the food ( Lasagne and chilli chicken) were really tasty. Amazing puddings too. Sonny and Jocelyn are great hosts and can't do enough for their customers. Essential to book as they are not open every night. Great hotel for B&B too.

A good place to visit for a light lunch. One of the best homemade cheese and caramelised onion quiche's I have had for a long time. Good parking and easy access with a great view

Wow I am scone snob! My mum bought me on on recent visit to Peebles and wow it didn't even need butter! A fruit scone with plenty sultanas. Lovely!

This absolutely has to be the friendliest deli/coffee shop/wine bar in Peebles! Always the warmest welcome, excellent coffee,hot chocolate and home baking. Many of their cheeses and charcuterie items are local, and they keep a beautiful range of gift items to complement everything else.

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.

Becattelli's sells artisanal gelato to die for. Wonderful ice cream made with local ingredients, full of flavour and none of the nasty ultra processed fillers. Friendly and accomodating staff and delicious flavours to try. We love the 3 Hills Espresso Coffee flavour and Pistachio in particular, but you really cn't go wrong. I highly recommend this to anyone in Kelso or visiting.

Doesn't get any better. Scotch pies Rolls Macaroni cheese pies All bring back the memories of visiting my Nanny years ago. Best place ever!

We had very nise coffee and lemon drizzle cake - would go back again if we are in the area. Staff were nise and chatty and friendly.

The best breakfast roll in Galashiels! Friendly warm space and amazing food and coffee ! Definitely worth a visit ! Support local businesses
