StrEatery 82 in Dumfries & Galloway

Good Social distance and sanitising measures in place. Food was ok. I had the Smoked salmon and avocado bagel which was tasty but not a lot of filling. Waitress/bar staff were noisy " throwing" empty bottles in the bins like it was a noisy nightclub. Something to bare in mind especially with the high ceilings.

Lovely coffee and cake. Staff very attentive and the bistro is in a wonderful location.

Sadly very poor. Ordered 2 steaks, sadly so tough they were practically inedible. Diane sauce had a strange celery like taste. Mixed salad seemed quite nice but had raw onion through it so couldn't eat it, but that's my preference nothing to do with the restaurant. Sadly only able to give 2 stars, one for the yummy chips and one for the cheerful waitress. All in all....could do better.

The food was delicious, staff were amazing. They looked after us well, so friendly & helpful. Nothing was any trouble for them. The toilets were immaculate, the Bistro was spotless. We will def be going back to the Bistro next time we are in Dumfries. I would gladly give the Bistro more than a 5 ***** rating.

Very disappointed. Disinterested staff - one sat on her mobile phone for half an hour. The other stomped off muttering insults after I pointed out that my knife was dirty and that the restaurant would look better if the floor was kept clean. She said they had been very busy and keeping the floor clean was outside her control. Wow ! What an attitude. Needless to say I will not be back. The food was brilliant by the way.

Great food and company in lovely surroundings

Sooooo good! Sweet fries perfect! Warm plate! Teriyaki chicken taste amazing! And my favourite - sticky toffee pudding! Amazing!

Lovely atmosphere. Clean and inviting. Pleasant staff. Car park adjacent. Food for early evening supper was really nice, just the right portion size. 2 courses for £10.75, although we just had mains. I can recommend Tempura chicken with sweet potato fries and salad. I would go again.

Loved the food as usual. But had But of a wait this time. That is the only reason I've do a star.Lovely clean place plenty of room between the tables. Great staff always helpful.The swimming pool is lovely and warm.

I'm at it again with the 4 stars... Now, I know this place doesn't make money. Its élégant but has a swim pool. Its chic but the staff are often too familiar. My wild mushrooms on toast (not what they called it}) was yummy. My chicken on haggis mash super tasty though part of the chicken was dry. The result of being under a heat lamp too long I suspect. My co-diners loved theirs. And the early bird price of £15 for 2 courses was I think a bargain. So why doesn't it make money? I hope it keeps open. I reckon its value is hard to beat.
