We went here as my husband had been here before and said it was great.Incidentally it was our wedding anniversary.Firstly the positives-the staff were friendly and the tables were clean.We were seated as soon as a table became available and they took our order-so far so good.The food was not good-we had chicken and sweetcorn soup which was basically water with no sign of any chicken and one kernel of sweetcorn.I then had a roast beef sandwich which was very fatty.It also had gherkins on which was bizarre,especially as it had no mustard and none was offered.Trying to get the attention of a waitress to order dessert and coffee was very difficult.After 15 minutes we managed to flag one down and ordered.Then she totally forgot about us so 20 minutes later my husband asked about our order and she hadn't even put it through as they were busy!By this time i had had enough,I am in a half leg cast and could no longer bear to sit and wait so we just went without.At the checkout we voiced our complaints and they gave us a couple of complimentary biscuits as if that would make up for the fiasco.We won't be returning.I'm so sorry we let you down so badly, especially on your wedding anniversary. I'm sorry you didn't enjoy the food on this occasion and I am especially sorry that our service wasn't up to its usual high standard. I'm afraid we had an unusually busy day on Monday and our till system let us down at a critical moment causing a backlog of orders. It's good to know that your husband's previous experience had been good and I sincerely hope that you will give us another try sometime.

We were "out for drive" on a wet Saturday.. actually to Castle Douglas... but could find NOWHERE suitable there to have lunch. We meandered toward Kircudbright and passed thru Dundrennan.. I was about to say, "We'll get nothing here" when we came across the Crown and Anchor. WHAT A MARVELLOUS FIND. The food was home cooked and very well presented and served quickly, ( and the place was busy). The surrounding were spotless and beautifully cared for. The proprietors were very welcoming and friendly. We opted for the toasted sandwiches which were superbly cooked and presented,and tea/coffee ( free refills - were offered)If you live locally.. please support this little gem of a place... if you don't go and search it out. WE will be back. If I could give them 7 of of 5 I would. PS we didn't have room for cake.. but they looked superb.

We found out about the opportunity to have poffertjes and Dutch pancakes in Castle Douglas before we went on a weekend break to the area. Oh yeah!! Between us we had savoury and sweet pancakes and poffertjes for lunch; all delicious! I had the shoarma pancake which was very nice, but I can recommend the chicken satay (or saté) which I also tried and which was amázing! The poffertjes were also great and exactly like you would get them in NL. Wish I could pop in more often but it's a 5 hour round trip...

This is a family run business that knows how to look after its customers. We were attracted to this café as it offered a variety of choice of something warming to eat on a coolish June day. Its menu is quite extensive and includes soups, jacket potatoes and burgers as well as sandwiches in various forms. Indeed, their speciality sandwiches offer twelve different fillings in a choice of 6 different breads with 4 different spreads and a coice of 4 out of 9 salad toppings. Or, over 870,000 different varieties! Our choices were hot bacon sandwich (Granary, low fat spread, etc), Jacket potato with cheese and garlic mushrooms and a soup and sandwich combination. All were quickly prepared and served to the correct customer without the waitress having to enquire as to who was having which dish; customer service indeed. Our meals were delicious and plentiful and thoroughly enjoyed by all. The icing on the cake (so to speak) was that two of us were able to find a paperback each among the small collection of second hand books kept at the café for customers to take away for a small donation to charity. We intend to patronise this café again.

4 of us went in for lunch. Two of us had the haggis and cheese panini. Not an obvious filling for a panini but absolutely delicious. The other two had soup which was equally good. The service was friendly and the menu varied. Donât be fooled by its ranking, it has not been open long. I am sure it wonât be long before it occupies the number one slot.

On holiday with our two dogs and mum itâs sometimes hard to find a cafe with a garden but this cafe is garden perfection with a lovey wooden gazebo covered in climbing flowers, a beautiful place to stop for a coffee and homemade cake or like us , lunch! The garden area is down a little alley way which you could easily miss as itâs not clearly signed. But the front of the cafe leads you down into a conservatory and out into the beautiful garden if you miss the alley. Waitress service but you order and pay inside first if you want to eat alfresco. Child and dog friendly. Gluten free on offer and soya milk alternative too. Weâre visited twice this week already, and are visiting again today for lunch. Why? Because the food is tasty, homemade and delicious! Simple as that! Good value price wise too, making this cafe, the best in Castle Douglas in our opinion. Coffee is great, my mum even loved her Earl Grey tea, she usually moans itâs too weak! There are sandwiches with locally made bread, toasties and paninis, homemade quiches and soups plus lots of specials and homemade cakes to choose from. My sandwich came with a beautiful dressed salad, delicious. My mum ordered a cheese toastie which came with homemade chutney and the salad. She ate every scrap and enthused all the way through it! My hubby ordered the BLT and he too pronounced it to be lovely. I canât recommend more highly. Try it yourself to find out what a gem of a place it is. In the garden on a sunny day, you feel as though you could be anywhere in the world, plenty of parasols to keep you shady if the sun is too hot. Wonderful place.

As an outsider to the area, what is easy to see on trip advisor within rural places to visit is that they have somewehat a monopoly within an area. If your the only cafe within a 1 mile radius, then people seem to inflate a rating. We stopped here for some light dinner, the place is nice, the chickens running free is a nice touch (especially for the kids) and its dog / bike friendly, so popular with local adventure tourists. The food is simple cafe food, all day breakfasts, sandwiches, cakes ect, but very run of the mill and nothing exotic. Service was good but the again with the rural location, you notice the prices are high considering what your buying. We had a breakfast and two other small meals and its £30, which is a considerable cost. Comments from people about 'Best breakfast ever' and 'Best food I have had for ages' i would say you need to get out more if that is the case. Good service and very friendly staff which is great, but the food is average.
