The best restaurants serving British food in Mid Galloway Dumfries & Galloway Lowlands

Excellent meal and excellent value. Beautiful view from our table. Surrounded by books. Combine your visit with adjacent plant centre. Lunch and evening.

Being a dog owner we regularly use Google reviews to check if dogs are allowed in, especially when we are visiting an area for the first time. We therefore checked The Riverbank out and saw, in the Gemini generated summary as well as several reviews ( one 2 months ago) that it was dog friendly. On turning up earlier today we noted a 'no dogs' sign on the door so I popped upstairs to check....and apparently the answer is 'it depends!', ie whether busy, how they feel on the day. This is completely unhelpful to customers as it either is, or isn't and should be up front about this. If you let dogs in it will appear in your reviews! Anyway your loss and another cafes gain as there are other lovely dog friendly places in the town (Lime Bothy, Belted Galloway) so I'd suggest you take your business elsewhere if you have a dog.

Cracking place, called in by chance and were lucky to get a table. (They had a tasting session later in the evening and were fully booked). Burger was very enjoyable, my partner wasn't as pleased with her "pie of the day".

This is the perfect place to sit for a coffee and a cake while waiting for family browsing the bookshops of Wigtown - or for a pit stop if you are on a bookshop marathon yourself. The staff are friendly and helpful. The chairs and sofas are comfy. The coffee is spot on and the cakes…Oh. My. Word! I had the apple and cinnamon and my husband had the lemon and ginger. Both were so light and utterly delicious - I was told the owner bakes them all herself, and my goodness she is good at it!

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

Lovely wee place. Lovely homemade food. Friendly and good service. Thank you

What a lovely place this is , stayed a couple of years ago when attending my cousin s wedding but called back in on Wednesday as we d just been to a funeral and the tea was back at the hotel,my dad was waiting for my sister and I in the car with his wee dog, Kenny who works in the bar very kindly took some food and drink out to the car for him , fantastic customer service from him so thanks again Kenny 😄 the food was lovely too

Nice place to eat, visitor centre but well set out. Lunch was nice & pet friendly. Free parking outside. Staff gave Misty bones to eat whilst we had our lunch.

Came here for my 25th and we had a great time, staff are lovely and gave us plenty of advice on fun things to do like seeing the deer. We had a great time and they also do a fabulous pizza, the bar is gorgeous too.

Very enjoyable meal. Had chicken strips and veg with side order of chips. Very tastey. Waitress very helpful and friendly. Restaurant very clean and tidy.

Enjoyed this place, a clean tidy spot with brill staff. Food good, at a reasonable price, loved the cakes good exhibition attached. All in all a really good visit.
