The best restaurants serving British food in Lowlands

Right on the high street in Moffat. You can park right outside, might be busy depending on what time you arrive. I got there in the evening so there were plenty of spaces. It's free to park which is great. The staff on reception, in the bar and the restaurant were all really friendly and efficient. The room was good, it was a single but with plenty of room. It was spotlessly clean, nice shower gels and plenty of towels. The shower was great too. There was a fridge with a bottle of water and a jug of milk for your tea / coffee. The bar / restaurant is nice. Plenty of choice of beers, lagers and ciders. All very reasonably priced which was a bonus. The food is really good value too. I had the fish and chips which were excellent. The breakfast was fantastic, i had the porridge which was top notch. I'm really glad I stayed here and cannot fault it.

Great wee place. Fantastic food and friendly service.

Lovely coaching in on the outskirts of Edinburgh. Steeped in History and the staff and setting fantastic. Food was five stars and very reasonably priced

Updated review: We had high expectations but our meal was somewhat spoilt by being given the wrong order. Two of our party ordered beef bourguignon pie but instead were given chicken balmoral pie, without being told!! We spoke to the waitress later who said she didnt know it hadn't been mentioned to us when we'd ordered and was sorry. Staff were nice but stretched on a busy Saturday evening and the manager was not able manage the restaurant as he was running the bar instead. The food was good, although pie portions were quite small. We had actually booked a table in the pub but luckily they'd a made a mistake with that too, as we.found the pub had a strong doggy smell when we left. The restaurant is very pleasant though. When we paid the manager asked if we'd enjoyed the evening and was told that 2 of our group were given the wrong food but again just a quick sorry and no offer of complimentary coffees or money off. Traquair Arms later contacted me after reading my review and sent a £25 voucher as an apology. It was a nice gesture and appreciated!

The decor inside is cosy and clean. I thoroughly enjoyed the food. I had the macaroni, which was delicious. I didn't think the service was very friendly, but she did her job fine. When I've been in the past, the staff was lovely, so maybe this was a temp worker. Sometimes, people have a bad day. It is a nice place to go, and I will go again.

This hotel is awful. It looks nothing like the website pictures. The whole place is rundown and filthy. On our first morning the waiter said there was a mix up with the food order and he thought he had some rice krispies somewhere but we're still waiting for them to arrive. There was then a greasy cooked breakfast plonked on a plate. When new residents arrived they were given wet towels for their room and the owner was very intimidating when they complained. Next morning at breakfast they were given the same excuse as us about the lack of breakfast foodstuffs. Don't know how this place is still open. Avoid at all costs.

Christmas night out with friends. Nice place and good staff. Food was really nice and the live band got us up dancing. Will visit again.

Great service. Quick and efficient, very friendly. Great food and great value. First time visiting and will be back. Would recommend

Sat in for fish n chips...was yummy, staff were friendly n helpful. Prices reasonable.

Always good food and great service.

The best food for miles around and definitely worth the trip. Came to see family and stopped for dinner. Food is absolutely amazing, so fresh, locally sourced and in season. The lamb roast dinner was superb, not a frozen roast potato or Yorkshire pudding in sight. The Highland chicken was delicious and the peppercorn sauce bloody amazing. Finished off with sticky toffee pudding and custard and we weren't disappointed! Staff so helpful and friendly. Lovely renovation too.

Your address is miss-guiding. You are not in Castle Douglas, but 15 Miles away in New Galloway! A drive after dinner!

Fantastic Staff Lovely room in the garden area. Here for business , so having this room was so relaxing . Food was fantastic 💯. I had the Fish &Chips.Veggie Burger was yup Lovely. 🧑‍🍳 Would definitely stay here again .😃

The food and staff were amazing, seasoned to perfection, the lady who served us, wish I knew her name was lovely, the food was superb, one of the best meals I have had in a long time, drinks also great, price very, very reasonable, would definitely recommend 100%

The only reason the room did not get 5* was the number of stairs required to climb
