Born in the Borders in Scottish Borders

Refreshing flavour filled earl grey tea, poppy seed and lemon cake. Shop is filled with Scottish themed products, gifts and books that are worth a look for something a little bit different

A little disappointing.The branding is awesome, I’m a real fan of the quirky gift shop and the various Scottish artwork dotted around the place, but unfortunately that’s where the positives end.We ordered a breakfast toasty and a scone, with a beer and a coke, which was fairly decently priced at around the £12 mark.The toasty was average at best, and the scone was over baked to the point where the currents were essentially little balls of chewy charcoal.Beer was nice, but we felt born in Scotland had the potential to be much better than it was.In short, the overall vibe of the place was awesome, just felt that it could have been so much better than it was. ☹️

More of a half day out than a whole day out. The walk round Scotland turns out to be tortuous dog walk round s grass field with the map of Scotland etched by lawn mower. God help you if you need the loo at glen Finnan if you're partner insists that thou shalt not cheat!! It's ok but take the dog. Expensive café, good parking and reasonable loos. A fab kids play area. The grass sledging is definitely the highlight though. Go for this but keep y'er wallet in control in the shop. Parking is simple and accessible.

We had a lovely lunch in the café today. The soup of the day was absolutely delicious as was the carrot cake. Will definitely visit again. The gift shop sold some excellent stuff. Didn't try the outside pizza bar but it was busy so must be good, and children were whizzing down the grass hill on sledges. Looked great fun! Definitely worth a visit!

Lovely café with small range of options (burger, fish and chips, sarnies, soup, cakes) but good service. Beers are delicious - really enjoyed a couple over lunch. Gift shop was quite pricey but good selection.

Worth a visit.This is a good place for young and old alike. There are a few things to occupy kids and things to interest adults.If the weather is good it's much better.The staff are we'll rehearsed in the Covid requirements and most of the public adhere to the rules. The staff are friendly, helpful and we'll presented.The food is good, fresh and decent helpings. The only downside is that the lunch menu is very limited.There is wheelchair access and disabled access to the toilets. Which are clean and tidy with hand sanitizers available.If you are nearby is a good stopping off point for lunch, coffee break or visiting the on sight distillery.

Fantastic place, dogs only allowed in cafe Court yard, no table available when we arrived but the helpful lady offered to reserve one as soon as there was and asked us to pop back after a wander, only had time to mooch in the gift shop and I came out she was coming to find us, food was amazing, felt very covid safe. Will definitely return if in the area again. Great walk in the grounds too.

Excellent place to visit and drink some nice beers and ciders. The pizzas are probably one of the best i have ever had . There were 5 of us and we had 3 pizzas which were all different and all amazing and filled us all up. Highly recommended

Great food really enjoyed the fish supper with homemade brown sauce.The art work is amazing and a must to see.Loads of others in for large selections of cake traybake.A shop to visit with quirky goods in.A real change and very enjoyable

Thanks so much to Born in the Borders for their hospitality! We called ahead and they were kind enough to offer our brewer's group a tour, which was fascinating. Loved every minute. We got beer to go and enjoyed it all the way back to Edinburgh. A great visit!
