The best restaurants serving British food in Leaderdale and Melrose Scottish Borders Lowlands

Questo locale offre diverse varietà di cibo dai bagel ai club sandwich di una qualità e freschezza unica! Lo consiglio.

We where very disappointed, my wife ordered the scallops which where okay, nothing special at all. Also had the steak which was very tough and hard to cut, it also had to much fat on it, once again very disappointed. On a plus side the service was good and ambiance was nice. We will not rush back with Melrose offering so many other options. Very disappointed as we looked forward to eating here while on holiday from overseas.

I'm absolutely gutted as I came here on my own last year and the Sunday lunch was amazing. I'm back in melrose with my friends and told them we must go to the ship for lunch. Phoned ahead booked a table for th4 of us and the dinner was disgusting!! The food was only warm gravy was like water my friends was disgusted I felt so embarrassed after reccomending this place, we ate most of it as we were starving but I won't go back again for food.😢😢😢 Tinned carrot's and peas really for the amount yous charge.

Annual visit to use a generous voucher 11th October 24. Huge disappointment with the food. My fish dish dry, tasteless and could not be split readily with knife and fork. . New potatoes black skinned, solid and inedible. My wife's confit duck slippery and straight out of the oil, no attempt made to crisp the skin. My chilled rice pudding just a solid paste. Half my meal sent back on the plates. Did not complain on the night so as not to cause trauma or drama on what was otherwise a visit to one of our favourite local haunts. Emailed the Manager o the Sunday evening, saying something must have been amiss in the kitchen, no credit sought, but if it was my restaurant, I would want to know. Received an apology from the duty manager and advised the chef had been given my email. Front of house, staff and decor all as good as usual, so I also said we would be back, but doubt if we ever will. Shame. ?

This is a very special restaurant in unassuming premises, in a quiet village by the Tweed that you'd probably have no other pressing reason to visit. Seasons is reason enough! Impeccable food and service and real attention to detail, with an emphasis on local produce. Because most people just steam through this area on the way to or from Edinburgh without stopping to explore, the Borders is full of well-kept secrets. This restaurant is one of the best of them.

Delicious Sunday lunch with family whilst on holiday near Melrose. Two of us had the Sunday roast (beef) which was very good with all the trimmings cooked well. The other meals were very good too. We had a warm welcome and friendly and efficient waiters. We sat outside in the sun which added to the experience but the dining room also looked nice.

Lovely, small cafe in the centre of Melrose. The savoury scone was good and the chutney really made it special. Great staff

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

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.

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.

Lovely location.Excellent coffee but spoilt by dogs being taken out for coffee by their owners/parents.Dogs barking.Get a grip I like dogs but they should not be in cafes and restaurants.

Gone downhill over last 2 to3 years Used to use regularly but no more. Had to wipe our seats clean, should have walked out then. Food more pub standard microwaved fare. Unfortunately prices do not relect reality.

Oh dear! This used to be a lovely place to eat. The current management leaves a lot to be desired. Staffing all very amateurish. Several items missing from the menu because "they were waiting for deliveries." Couldn't even remember to bring the requested water to table. Food perfectly acceptable but nothing very exciting although still relatively expensive. I notice that the accompanying photos on this site are from the days of previous ownership. Nothing like as cosy now. Not in a hurry to revisit.

Best bakers in the Scottish Borders, their apples pies are absolutely delicious. In fact anything you buy is lovely highly recommended.

We stayed for a few nights after our wedding as it was close to the venue and it was amazing from start to finish. The staff couldn’t be more helpful, the food is absolutely delicious and the decor/vibe is wonderful. The towels were also really lovely and fluffy. We absolutely loved our time here and will definitely be back.
