The best restaurants serving British food in Lowlands

Lovely lunch today 2 roast beef dinners a beef pie and a chicken burger. Couldn’t fault it in the least. Very nice portions with good quality beef. Really tasty. Yes I agree the gravy was a little thin but it was very nice. Rather that than thick gravy thickened with too much flour. The chips were nice and veg was well cooked. The only downside was we were the only family eating a that particular time 12.30 Sunday. So come on residents of Westlinton keep your local restaurant open lots a lovely wee village kee some life in it. Keep up the good work.

A lovely Sunday lunch and staff very happy and helpful. Definitely will be back. It is also dod friendly which gets a big thumbsup

Amazing arts and crafts shop plus cafe. Great food at reasonable prices. We got to learn. About the Sanquar knitting pattern as well

My breakfast was spoiled by the overcooked eggs, yolks were burst and hard! 3 hairs found on plate!

recommend this small cafe on the main street of castle douglas they make banging cheese toasties but i will complain about one thing there was a cheeky young lad who works there an he made an inappropriate remark about my weight

Nice little cafe to stop for a decent coffee and lovely coconut and raspberry cake . Staff where very friendly and helpful. Ordered at counter and sat outside with my trusty dog Lexi, as no dogs allowed in side, which is fine. Lady asked on bringing my brew and cake if Lexi wanted a dog bowl, nice touch. Definitely worth a visit.

Absolutely lovely time, and a big thanks to Karen @ the complex, a lovely lunch, with lots of TLC, and made the birthday lunch special. Followed by great kid’s entertainment with the animals & science show! Brilliant team, brilliant show, we will be back!! Thank you for going out your way to make us relaxed and happy!

Absolute gem. Great attention to detail in well curated small plates. Understated establishment where the food is forward. Wine and cocktail list superb. Service a terrific blend of friendly and professional. Not a touristy dining experience. Gourmand’s delight.

Superb room, great breakfast. Good restaurant within walking distance. All in all a great value hotel. Highly recommended.

This cafe has a really distinctive menu for its size with a choice of meat- fish- and plant-based dishes. They were extremely attentive to a very unusual dietary issue which involved them adapting several elements of one of their menu items. Both waiter and chef spoke to me before we settled on a dish. This was all handled in really friendly manner.

Got to say, I’ve never had a bad meal or experience in here. The ham hock and lentil soup as amazing, the steak and mushroom pie was outstanding. It was packed with lean steak in a lush, beefy broth type gravy. Great fies, a la dente peas and everything was piping hot and cooked to order. Even the plates were warm, which I always appreciate. The staff were great and the owner is a real friendly guy. If yer heading North or South on the A68, make sure this is yer pit stop, even for a coffee and cake. Made me smile today whilst I was eating, it was that good. It looks like a greasy spoon if you pass it on the road, but it’s not! It’s on a par with very good pub grub, and it’s really clean inside, as is the kitchen which I passed on the way to use the bathroom.

Best cooked breakfast Dumfries has to offer, bar none! Great coffee too. Really comfortable and peaceful space with views of the golf course. Well priced and friendly service

Wonderful and welcoming wee cafe within Gracefield Arts,lots of space between tables. Managed to grab a pot of tea, and homemade mint rocky road before it closed. Lots of delicious looking cakes on offer, very good value and affordable prices. Was able to dry off after a downpour, and not rushed. Then was able to visit the exhibition and look around the shop, which was full of lovely local crafts, good quality art cards and gifts

We stayed in crainryan an chose to have our tea here which was handy as we was stay next door having our evening meal here ment we could enjoy a drink r 2 . Such a friendly atmosphere brilliant people really enjoyed our night . Food was really nice this place is a must visit even if just to have a little drink an meet great people x

A lovely restaurant and bar serving freshly home cooked food. Portion sizes are good and the food was excellent. My wife is very fussy about her steak pies but loved the one she got here. I had scampi and it was good as well. The decor and surroundings don't scream "modern" but that is part of the charm. A warm welcome from the hosts (and the locals) in what clealy is a well loved community hub. The prices are very reasonable and while it's not the most extensive of menus you should be able to find something you like.
