Good friendly

This was a delightful find in Melrose. A charming chef/manager and his waitressing daughter clearly love what they do. The salmon was cooked to perfection with a truly amazing sauce. Lovely atmosphere with peaceful jazz music in the background. We left enchanted.

Went for lunch and had Cullen Skink which was delicious. A varied menu and reasonable prices. Would recommend.

I really do not like writing poor reviews, but... We were here for dinner on a Friday night having booked a table - when we arrived we were the only diners, to be joined a few moments later by another couple. Obviously with so few people in, there was no delay in service - to the point where we felt rushed, but perhaps that was a plus point as the room was very cold. As for the food - at best mediocre - in my wifes lamb stew there were a few chunks of meat but a lot of mush, and no other discernible veg. The brocolli and cauliflower on my chicken dish (do I think these were from a frozen packet and quickly microwaved?) very quickly chilled in the ambient temperature of the room. We left ASAP taking the remians of our bottle of wine with us. A shadow of it's former self.

Very disappointed. The restaurant was very cold. Service poor. Food average. No Christmas menu. Had to return sweets, roulade still frozen in middle.

Good lunch of soup and filled panini after our walk. Excellent service, lovely calm surroundings. Could not want for more. Will definitely be back.

We enjoyed the food and staff are very pleasant. Spirit drink prices included the mixer which was good.
On our first day in Melrose, my parents and I visited Marmions Brasserie for a late lunch after our drive. The food was lovely, the staff very friendly and the service was great considering they were almost full and had a large party of hill walkers to serve and take payment from! I'd definitely recommend Marmions Brasserie to anyone looking for something to eat. We chose from the lunch menu with my Mum having a panini and my Dad and I having a toasted open sandwich but they sell main meals also and have a selection of alcohol drinks.

I have been going here for years. It's always a treat. Helpful, polite staff. Wonderful menu and great Borders Style ( large) portions. Always cosy and welcoming. Local art gallery on the walls very tempting all round. ?Vegetarian options: I ordered warm goats cheese with beatroot salad. It turned out to be my main meal of the day. A very substantial treat.Dietary restrictions: I'm vergitarian and there was a small choice for me.Plenty options for those who eat fish.My sister is dairy intolerant but as she really only wanted a light lunch the homemade soup and crusty bread fitted the bill.Parking: Very reasonable price for parking.50p for up to two hours, just a hundred yards from marmions.

Great food and service, let down by shabby toilets . I think these have to be the worse toilet facilities I’ve encountered for a long while. Doesn’t reflect on excellent food and service, which is a shame.

Booked a table 19th Sept 23 via email for 2 for Monday 25th Sept 23 for our anniversary .....received a confirmation email on 19th Sept 23 saying all booked in looking forward to seeing you...from Chris.......turned up last night (25th Sept) to a sign saying private function. we went in and were turned away being told that the booking had not gone through.....Which was an out right lie......(Cannot stand liars)....I do think they knew about the function and could have emailed me sooner to cancel.......we were left looking for some where else to eat at the last moment........very poor service and very unprofessional behaviour.......very disappointed....
