We arrived and asked for a table, although we hadn't booked we were able to get seated with a small wait so it was nice of the staff to accommodate us. The service was really good although a bit strange that we had 4 or 5 different staff check on us, everyone was really nice, helpful and polite. Food and atmosphere was very typical of what you expect from a decent pub, no complaints but nothing special. We did come for Sunday roast but it had sold out by the time we got there, our own fault really as we probably arrived around 5.15pm but was still a little disappointed. All in all, not a bad place to eat out.

Recommended by a very helpful assistant in the B&M store, and they were not wrong. Could not have asked for better service and food even when they were rushed off their feet with a full pub of customers. Thanks to all in the Craven Arms.

Can't fault this great bar, great food and also a fantastic choice of beers, fantastic menu and food as stated. We were recommended to try this restaurant and were happy to find it lived up to the reviews we were given, the staff are very friendly and very attentive and helpful and more than happy to go that extra mile no matter how busy the bar gets. Well done guys.

The haggis, neeps and tatties here were delicious and they have some great ales on tap too.

Great food…

The portions are massive. If you are having a starter, you're not having a dessert! Overall the food is fantastic and to top it off, Belhaven Best on draught! Look at my other reviews to see where I've been!

Every time I come to the caverns, I am always impressed with the quality and freshess of the food, tastes amazing the staff are fantastic. Well worth a visit I don't think you will be disappointed ?Vegetarian options: There are options availableDietary restrictions: Book in advance and ask staff about your needs and I am sure they can accommodateWheelchair accessibility: Your on the same leave as the pavement and they have double doors giving plenty of space. They also have a disabled toilet
Great place with fabby staff, Michelle should be promoted just for her warmth and professional service, a great barperson and really good member of staff.A joy to speak to and great at her job!!

Great for food. Serves a range of classic pub dishes which are nicely done with a few quirky specials. Range of steaks, burgers but also good lasagna, fish etc. Some veggie and vegan options,Generous portions (don't have a starter if you even want to contemplate pudding and you may struggle with to get there even if you just have a main). Reasonably priced cost only a few quid more than the 'Spoons up the road but better quality and bigger portions. Great choice of real ales (worthy CAMRA best pub in Dumfries in the past) but more a pub for eating than drinking in. On-line booking for tables I'd recommend especially for weekend as this is very popular place to eat
