The best restaurants serving British food in Scotland

Good food (panini and breakfast classics), excellent coffees, friendly service. Good outdoor seating area. Very good value.

Great little local and dog friendly!

Afternoon tea for 2. Absolutely delicious and needed a doggy bag. So full up won't need to eat later. Will definitely be back and highly recommend to everyone

Never stayed here,contacted randomly on telegram and asked to leave a 5 star review. Not sure the reviews here are legit,might well be an organ harvesting scam to be honest.

This is a MUST not miss stop to eat. Very friendly service, meal extremely well presented, taste is exceptional! 10:10 from me.

4 of us went for lunch on a Thursday. Staff were attentive and service was swift. Cosy and friendly place. All the food was freshly prepared and excellent in presentation and taste. Special mention for the pork loin special. It was very tasty and cooked to perfection. The sticky toffee pudding was delicious and light. Reasonably priced and good value. Will be back more often.

Was staying local to area and tried this for lunch and really enjoyed the dishes we had.

I love this place a very special restaurant with super friendly staff who give you a great welcome, we are locals who lunch regularly and the warm inviting atmosphere tops anywhere locally. Great presentation of home produced products , tasty and delightful also the farm shop with amazing products a true gem of a place in Dumfries and Galloway

New to us , so meeting with another couple to surprise them by taking out for a celebraterary anniversary lunch. Three course meal was had by all. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. Food was amazing and fluent service during our meal. 5 stars to the team for our meal and service. Definantly be back. Visiting from fife and cumbernauld. Thankyou.

Had lunch and cakes here, one of the best places for to go for food during the day on the island. It’s well liked and well known by a lot of visitors. People have been going for 20 years+. Got some history about it and the place has never changed. Highly recommend the specialty meringue cake dish. It’s huge but worth it. Really disappointed about the annoying opening hours. We drove to visit one day on a Saturday and it was closed. Turns out it was SHUT FRIDAY, SATURDAY, SUNDAY, MONDAY EVERY WEEK DURING THE SUMMER PEAK PERIOD!! And we’ve found it it’ll be closed over winter too. We hear it’s to do with staffing issues which is a current issue but it was really disappointing to be closed on such busy peak days. Doesn’t make sense and we drove all that way

Great cafe with consistently good service, coffee and fantastic cakes. Even better that they do gluten-free options (that are not brownies)

Lovely friendly welcome and great informal service. Fantastic food with really good flavours. I had the sole menuire with shrimps capers and brown butter sauce - delicious.

Our 2nd visit to Garvock House Hotel after our fabulous visit recently. Again, everything was absolutely perfect, no faults whatsoever, this is a very underatted establishment. Throughly recommend.

What a delightful discovery. A wonderful stopping point if/when touring the borders. We we’re meeting up with family and had a one night stay. Just wished we could have had extended it. Very comfortable room with a modern en-suite. Our family meal in the restaurant was loved by all. Excellent menu for both adults and kids. An extensive menu which was backed up by quality food and presentation. Cosy bar offering cask ales, wines and spirits to suit all. We had without doubt the best breakfast served in any establishment in the country. Again an extensive menu which could give you a different breakfast plate for at least a week. Our hosts were so warm and friendly and run a very well organised establishment. Highly recommend The Allanton Inn. We will certainly return for a much longer stay soon.

I'm aware the house o'hill has just opened back up but our experience was as if we had just walked into faulty towers, there was a boss lady trying to take orders but didn't have a clue, a boss man that just wanted to stand at pizza counter and do nothing and a poor girl stuck on till not knowing how to work till and don't forget jack and Victor in the kitchen, there was 6 tables with people sitting and you thought there was 36 most meals came out late and wrong, also no alcohol sold people will wait for a meal if there drinking alcohol but not if there drinking coke, food was basic but good when we eventually got it, for the life of me I don't know what the problem was cause me and my wife could have served and cooked what was sitting on Saturday night ourselves with no help, I really hope they can turn this round
