The Back Street - Dumfries

Absolutely amazing! Get the duck!!! Incredible food Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Relaxed, friendly, busy, cafe style bistro serving delicious, really good food. You look at the menu and think, well that looks ok, and then the food arrives and it's generous platefuls of absolute flavour bombs! Kudos to the chef who clearly knows how to season well and cook vegetables, fish, and poultry properly. And thumbs up for stocking local spirits. The only downside is due to the high ceiling and echoey space the sound of other diners can be intrusive. And please install an expel-air, when we were there it was very smoky and our clothes smelled from all the cooking. It's very busy so best to book in advance. Thanks for a lovely evening.

On our road trip through England/Scotland the best restaurant we visited. No tourists eat but traditional cuisine modern made super tasty, an atmosphere to feel comfortable and super dear staff. Simply perfect, we come back Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £40–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Really enjoyed the meal however it was a 45 minute wait which reduced the stars.

Never been here before. I'm on holiday and decided to stop of for a bite to eat. In all my years of eating out I've just had one of the best sirloin steaks EVER. Their chief absolutely nailed it.. The starter, the main meal, the dessert... Fantastic.....5 stars all day long. Highly recommended Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
