The best restaurants in Lowlands

Delicious,, bit pricey though. But nice place for a special occasion

We stopped here for an afternoon cup of tea and cake , both of which were extremely nice . The staff here were friendly, and we were made to feel very welcome.

We just sneaked in before they finished serving. We were so hungry and an authentic lasagne, with delicious garlic bread was just what I needed! The atmosphere was great with beautiful smells, bikes hanging on the wall and a nice chat with the owner. Franco... Grazier mille!

I was staying overnight in the area and Heathers was recommended. Had Cullen Skink for lunch which was really good. For Dinner I decided on the steak. Asked for it to be cooked "Rare to Medium" and it was spot on. Eccellent value at just under £30 including a pint of Moretti

So glad we found The Caddy Mann to have dinner on the last day of our holiday in The Borders - what a great find ! Delish food ! The game pudding is so tasty and hubby enjoyed his steak which was a good size and cooked nicely. The staff were friendly , and although the surroundings aren't luxurious , the most important thing for us is the food - and it's excellent !! Thank you Ross and team !

Currently sitting here now .. service is brilliant young girl is lovely and helpful...food is absolutely lovely here is defo recommend here...not here staying so can't comment on rooms or hotel part ..all staff are really friendly aswell x

Great menu with a lot of choice. Some of our family are vegans and had a lot to choose from. Staff were friendly. Food was tasty. Would recommend.

Well 3 meals were perfect, wine lush service excellent but my meal was like it had a bowel of sugar in it don’t know if it was supposed to be sweet , meal in question was la dolce vita pollo , I didn’t complain because the other 3 people said there food was amazing

The food was great best I’ve tasted in a while. Not recommended for people with disabilities. Very difficult to get to restaurant and toilet facilities not good. View from restaurant fantastic. Service was top class

We have been going to the Cafe Royale for over 3 years now on a monthly basis, it was recommended to us when we moved from England by our Solicitor in Glasgow. She remembered it from being taken by her grandfather and said it was the best Fish shop in the world. She is, was and always will be 100% correct!!! We've lived and visited countless places across the globe and though there are plenty of fish and chip shops closer to us, they've all let us down for one reason or another. Cafe Royale has been consistently the best for over 3 years for us and we've simply stopped going elsewhere. Please keep on doing what you do guys..

Everything you could want in your local Hotel/Restaurant Cosy and inviting Dining Room, excellent food, good quality and generous portions. Welcoming, friendly staff. A well kept cellar, beer is always top notch. We are lucky to have The Thistle on our doorstep….highly recommend.

Delicious soup, sandwiches and freshly baked cakes. Cheerful staff who helped with choices and comfortable seating area for a family Thank you

Great food , fast service, friendly staff and the views where amazing

Take away pizza was cold and really lacking in flavour. Toppings were sparse and there was very little sauce and cheese. Really pretty disappointing

A traditional, lovely café located in the heart of Moffat. My wife and I stopped off here en route home from a spa break in Dumfries. The sun was shining and the place was buzzing. We ordered two Lattes and she had an Egg Butty. It cost £13.10 in total - the Coffee was great. Sitting in there, it definitely felt that the place had been recently decorated - everything seemed fresh. The staff were friendly and we’d have no hesitation in popping our heads in again. The business ties in nicely to Moffat and what it has to offer.
