The best restaurants serving British food in Dumfries & Galloway Lowlands

We stopped by for an evening meal and the place looks tired food was lukewarm and not just our meal another table had the same experience suggest you look elsewhere...

on arrival Sally was helpful and polite after a mix up in orders thankyou for a positive experience Both coffees tasted really nice.

Most awful experience I’ve ever had, never seen or tasted pakora so bad, chips burnt, and worst value ever, if I could leave a minus rating I guarantee I would have, AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

We booked this Hotel for the visit to the Lockerbie memorial garden and from the moment we arrived we were made so welcome and could not do enough for us. The Room was amazing and the view so picturesque, The whole hotel is spotless and our room was so clean and so comfortable we had the best nights sleep in a very long time. The bar is so friendly and everyone so welcoming. The Dining area is first class and the food (Evening and Breakfast Meals) were exceptional and high Quality, all the staff cannot do enough for you and so friendly. We have stayed in plenty 5 star hotels and none compared to this little Gem. We go as far as saying this is the best hotel we have ever stayed in so far. How this is only a 3 star I will never know. We will definitely be booking here again…. Thank-you to all staff…

So after reading a few rubbish reviews I was quite nervous to eat here. My other half had steak.and ale pie ,he said it was fabulous. I got a chase burger and it was great ,came with bacon onion rings coleslaw ,all of it perfectly cooked and hot. staff were helpful and polite. highly recommend

Absolutely fantastic, very friendly female staff member and friendly customers, felt very welcome and relaxed lovely place will definitely return

Never stay at this hotel. The restaurant food is delicious and large portions. My family use to regularly eat here every Sunday before Covid. After Covid there's a staff shortage that affects the quality of the services. I only visit the restaurant again because the hotel is closing on the June 2nd this year. It is sad to see the hotel close. Hopefully someone buys this hotel and turn it into an apartments.

Let's get the moaning out of the way first. When we arrived they were obviously short staffed so check in took a bit longer than it should have and the member of staff on apologised for the delay. Rooms were reasonable size, comfortable and clean. Good price too. The Inn has character with the bar being a nice place to be. A selection of real ales that would put most hotels and pubs to shame. A good selection of wines and spirits too. Food was great, smoked haddock soufflé, beef cheeks and baked cheese cake were all well presented and delicious. No complaints. The breakfast menu was good and the usual full scottish was very good with quality ingredients. Staff were friendly, helpful and pleasant. Some interesting sights nearby for an apres breakfast constitutional. Great place for a night away.

Really good tasty chips in Wetherspoons and the food is really good the staff are friendly and helpful if you have any questions.

Absolutely awful bacon and sausage almost raw and bacon very salty. potato scone burnt. Wouldn't eat there again

Great find! A lovely little pub that serves great, homecooking food. The service was also really good with a lovely, friendly lady doing everything! Dog friendly too.

Down to earth place. And go understanding that.

Stayed at the Black Bull as a stop off coming down from Skye. The room was perfect for our family of four with bunk beds and toys for the little ones and a very thoughtful dog tray with bowls, blankets and even some food. It was perfect after a long day of driving. We will definitely be making it our go to place to stay whenever we are in the area.

Used to dine here every second week. But closed to the public in Dumfries. So we will never dine in a Table table again the same as our friends. You decided to close to the public.

Excellent service with you ordering everything from your table which is very convenient. Good choice of food although children’s menu could be better and there were no pizzas which dissapointed our youngest grandchild. We all enjoyed what we ordered and look forward to calling again soon.
