"LOVED our dinner at Home. The service was friendly, welcoming and unpretentious. It was like arriving at a friends house where they poured a large glass of wine and put delicious bread and olives on the table. Felt at home from the start. I had the cucumber avant guard which was hard to describe even after eating it but the flavours were amazing. The green curry fried chicken was outstanding So much flavour. For mains we had pig cheeks which were delicious and the rump steak. The steak was unbelievable! It was melt in the mouth and cooked to perfection. It was also one of the largest steaks have ever been served and took 2 of us to eat. Should really have taken a doggy bag as would a have made amazing sandwiches next day. Didn’t really have room for pudding but wanted to try the plum tart which was so delicious. Wine was very reasonably priced for the quality and comes by glass . Will be finding reasons to be in Dumfries on Thursday or Friday again so can return"

"vegan friendly! they have vegan haggis that is so good. my meat-eating friend also enjoyed it. they also offer a vegan version of a traditional Scottish breakfast. the personal is really nice and attentive. oh and their baked things are delicious! although I don't think that's vegan. very recommend frau greens! photos are from a breakfast sandwich. with veggie haggis, ice cream and delicious brown sauce on the side. oh and a coffee! They also have no milk options."

"Went here on the 24th June 2018. There was 2 lovely members of staff working. One of the ladies was called Shannon and she was brilliant. Did not get the name of the other lady but she was lovely. The food was very nice and the place itself was bright and airy. I will go back there when I next visit Scotland."

"My husband and I got married at the blacksmith shop this week and stayed at this hotel with our wedding guests. We would never recommend this place to anyone looking to get married. We have come away disgusted with the way we was treated on our wedding day by certain staff members. The rudest person of them all was a lady called Alice who worked in the restaurant. She made me cry on my own wedding day with how she kept trying to start arguments from the moment we arrived for our wedding meal. She kept prodding us with sarcastic remarks all the time was constantly watching us to try and make an issue over literally anything. She was absolutely vile with the way she thought she could talk to us. The woman even got a tape measure out on our wedding day for social distancing on tables (long story short: mine and the grooms table was so far away from our guests we had to shout to the tables it was a joke they went past the 2M ruling!!! So we moved our table slightly closer to our guests so we could actually hear them and she then had the cheek to get a tape measure out UNBELIEVABLE. This is not how to treat guests especially on their wedding day!! There is a way to speak to people and it certainly wasn’t this!! We then complained about her to another member of staff and it was a pack mentality in this hotel and she was allowed to talk to people however she wanted. I just wanted to add that other wedding parties in the restaurant was getting away with singing, standing up and mingling, music on their phone speakers but nope... this woman had it in for us all night. I think she took good pleasure out of getting an argument out of myself and my guests. Will never be coming back here. Just so grateful we had lovely friends and family there who made the day lovely for us otherwise this would of been a hell hole."

"Upon entering the restaurant was as cosy as i remembered from my last visit several years ago. We were placed at a window table which was great. First hiccup was I’m a cider drinker and on the cider menu it only had a bottled section all being fruit or 0% which I’m not fond of. Had I not asked I wouldn’t have noticed that cider draught was mentioned in draught beer section. Maybe that should be reviewed as I had no intentions of looking at beers being a cider drinker. The next wee fumble was when we looked at the menu and upon approach to take our order we were told the simple words. Beef is unavailable but we have pork. We did not have a clue what she was talking about and assumed she had told us something that was meant for another table. Was only after ordering and needing to use the toilet that we spotted a specials board with roast dinners and other options on them that we had never been told about or made aware of as it also isn’t mentioned on the menu about Sunday roasts. Would have been nice to have been told about this option. The next hiccup i encountered was the dessert menu. We were told no cheesecake left. That was fine cos I only ever order fudgecake or cheesecake when I’m out so the server came back to get our order and I asked for fudgecake. To be told sorry we have none. So I decided to pass on desert. everyone else at our table ordered and ate there’s. So around 20-30 mins had passed and we got up to pay and leave. We were the last table out and I know I seen cheesecake sitting behind of the counter so I assumed one of the staff reserved a slice for themselves which I found rather annoying knowing I ddnt get it instead. For my main I ordered the Katsu chicken. Chicken rice and popadoms were nice. Chips were the best Iv had in a long time. So crispy and fluffy. Top marks there. However the Katsu curry sauce was watery and bland. Being out for a birthday meal I did not want to make a scene so I ate up. But I definitely think the sauce needs improvement. Staff were nice and smily but felt like they were lacking on some simple aspects of service as once again we were on the premises for an hour and a half and we weren’t asked if we would like another drink at any point either after the initial pint. Would I come back….. probably but not in a hurry."
