Scent of Galloway in Dumfries & Galloway

Proper home cooking at its best. Fabulous portions, fairly priced. Delectable waitresses. Nice, relaxed atmosphere. Go again and again.

stopped by for a quick breakfast, and was not disappointed at all! quaint and homely restaurant, very reasonably priced. only grouse is that the waitress didn't hang around much in the dining area so it was a little difficult to get her attention when we wanted to call for the bill.

My wife and i visited Newton Stewart for 5 days.Stayed at Machermore castle. Tried a few places but The Scent o Galloway has the best food,the best service and the fairest prices in the whole of Scotland.Steak pie is amazing. All day breakfast is out of this world. Desserts are delicious. Anyone visiting Newton Stewart should try this lovely restaurant.I will certainly be back next time we are in the area

We asked for a table for two. Waitress said there was one. We sat for 20 minutes without anyone asking for our order. Even although the waitress engaged in conversation with 4 other tables. Very disappointed. So we walked out.

Lovely food, friendly staff and great prices. Been there a few times now and definitely will be back again 🙂

love this wee place, mac and cheese is fab steak pie is soooo good oh my god i need to go there today, any way food is great price of food is supper great, the girls do a fabulous job, i love going to eat here :)

Nice place but my husband and I ordered 2 large fish and 1 small fish when we got them all the fish looked exactly the same size small. When I asked if they were all small I was told it was done by weight but they looked the same not worth £5 More each shame as we are local. I Have been in and had soup and the fish on people's plates were hanging over the plate.

Really sad to put this however the grade of food has went down hill. Really disappointed I ordered macaroni cheese which previously was thee best mac and cheese I ever had is now just macaroni pasta with grated cheese on top sitting in a cm deep of oil. I went back and the lady was lovely and happy to refund my money. Really hope it gets seen to and rectified asap.

11am ordered a bacon onion & cheese pannini waited 20 mins and when i eventually got it it was cold. Pannini wasnt toasted cheese was grated but not melted & onion was raw 2 bites & it went to the bucket. I also didnt appreciate the bit of limp salad crammed into the box which i had not ordered or wanted fair enough if your sitting in its nice to garnish plates but defo not for a carry out b/fast order!

What a find this cafe was, lovely fresh cooked food, the fish was fantastic, special price for seniors an added bonus. We were only in Scotland for three days but went two days on the run for a lovely meal. Prices were very good and the staff couldn’t be more helpful. Thank you.half term week.
