The best restaurants in Lowlands

A small but perfectly formed cafe serving first class gluten free options for lunch. Delicious toasties and the home made (gf) lemon meringue pie is outstanding. Highly recommended.

Called in yesterday 24/03/25 after reading reviews. Staff were helpful and cheerful and the menu was great. We had home made soup, nachos, and goats cheese aubergine & pesto panini. This was all served to order and there was a little wait due to being busy. We didnt mind and it was worth it. We enjoyed sitting outside in the sun and it's very dog friendly Our dog enjoyed his treats too. Well done and thank you 😊

Brilliant customer service, staff very attentive!! Will definitely be back lovely end to my birthday day out!! Thanks so much

I have been there a few times with my friends. Good food and good price. I love Ramen there it's the best.

Great food and service, would recommend 👍

Very friendly staff and very helpful

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.

Best wee local pub. Great pool table and friendly staff, local family owned and run. Often a free buffet supplied and always great grub.

Great wee cafe in the centre of Dumfries and my go-to place for a morning coffee. More character than all the other "chain" establishments in town put together. Table service. Dog friendly. Lovely staff. What's not to like 👍
