The best restaurants in South West Scotland

First visit and won't be last. Lovely comfortable restaurant, friendly attentive staff and fabulous menu. Food was outstanding and portions are massive. They even offer for you to take any food you can't manage home in a box. Highly recommended

Excellent restaurant, fish but not only. Very expensive, around £50 if you get a main course, a beer and a dessert. Elegant and refined furnishings, with lots of wood, but without being pretentious. The staff is very friendly, but it's a little difficult to understand when they speak. A little noisy when full. I ate here twice, and everything was really very good, both the meat and the fish. The ice cream is awesome! Bottom line: highly recommended!

Christmas meal with friends on Thursday all food excellent and staff friendly and helpful.

Anya was amazing! Such lovely service from start to finish! She noticed when we came in we had elderly grandparents with us so allowed us to choose where was most comfortable to sit for them and she also checked on us during our meal to make sure we were enjoying our food, anya was really patient when we were ordering our food which was very appreciated - such a lovely woman made our experience a lovely one thank you so much again!

Good choice of menu Lovely food presented well Have to praise waiter Iain. Lovely guy very friendly. Was Perfect choice for us for family birthday celebration.

The food was really good and the portion sizes were the best I’ve seen in a long time. The staff were super friendly and helpful.

Delicious starters followed by pink roast beef. Speedy staff. I think an open log fire would add to the ambiance, especially with cold weather coming up. Every country pub should have one!

Great service all round from check in to check out. Was shown up to my room at check in and explained everything, restaurant staff for friendly and chatty and food was amazing.

Amazing food. Our little daughter with celiac disease, loved it.

We kept getting told to give this place a try and how the food was amazing. Finally tried it out and wow absolutely top class. Food and service delivered the right way. Staff were so attentive and made us feel welcome. Will definitely be back 11/10.

We came here for my 40th last night and couldn't of wished for a better evening. We had the 3 course menu, both chose the Scallops, strawberry ketchup, rose, smoked caviar as our starter, Deer, pommes Anna, blood orange, oyster mushroom, sauce Grand Veneur was the main my partner chose, I had Duck, raspberry, rabbit, date, pommes, for desert my partner chose the Selection of 6 Scottish & French cheese, calvados & fruit chutney, rosemary salted digestives, grapes, I opted for the Blood orange parfait, pastel de nata, cranberry sorbet, cinnamon, poached pear, bergamot gel. One of the finest meals I've ever had. The food was equally matched by the enthusiasm of our host Sam who made our evening that little bit more special, thabk you Sam! Anyone visiting the Isle of Arran book yourself into this restaurant it's amazing!

We love this restaurant and all the staff. Having a complex needs baby with significant medical problems it’s difficult to find somewhere we can relax and not feel under pressure. The staff here always make us feel so welcome and Donna is so kind and amazing with our daughter, we are always given plenty of space for her buggy and equipment and never rushed. The food is brilliant and served quickly. We have all our special occasions in here and it’s our go to for a brilliant lunch deal too. Thanks so much, you have no idea the difference you make to our day when we come here
