The perfect venueI chose The Boathouse for an intimate wedding reception of 15 or so people, and the staff there delivered in spades with a delicious, high-quality buffet, carefully-considered playlist, and a beautifully lit and decorated atmosphere—with candles and fairy lights adorning seemingly every surface. The staff—who were on hand the entire time—were absolutely delightful, and were more than happy to pack the buffet into paper bags for us. They also decorated the wedding cake beautifully for me with the items we brought. I couldn’t recommend The Boathouse highly enough—thank you!

Great location and nice food.A shame about the very, very sticky tables. Lady said it was the cleaning spray they used. Errr, change the spray! Really not very nice having to peel your arm off the table.

Lovely food and gluten free options on the menu. Great view of the River Nith from your dinning table.

Absolutely gorgeous restaurant with a great choice of dishes. I had the chilli halloumi wrap and sweet potato fries (big enough to be shared between 4). Service was excellent and the view of the estuary with the migrating geese was stunning.

Lovely views to enjoy with your meal. There were a few veg / vegan options. I had the vegan breakfast. Wasn't sure what to expect from the vegan haggis but I thought it was okay. Vegan bacon was a massive let down. It was burnt and inedible. I mentioned it to staff and they said they would do another and it was exactly the same. I did suggest to the staff member that either they or the chef should try it themselves but they never came back to me about that. Lovely they make an effort but please only offer it if it's edible!

Really good food here and a shop with many high quality local produce and souvenirs.The place has an excellent view over the estuary and is right next to a local pub and places to park your motorhome overnight.I will definitely return for an overnighter with pint, then go here for brekkie or lunch. Delicious

Sat outside on a lovely warm day, protected from the breeze by the excellent glass screen. Chose the second day of the Nith bore" which passed us as we were eating. Altogether a great lunch with wonderful food and wine. Very well worth a visit and we will be back."

Probably not the best day to call in for brunch …. Wet, windy and a very high tide had the broken banked Nith lapping at the edges of the car park …. but we’ll worth it for the delicious food . Never seen it so wet here and many of the usually cow filled fields on the far bank were completely immersed . Still a great visit.

Best sausage sandwich to date, really lovely restaurant/cafe, staff were lovely and good chat. Prices are high, but it's good quality food and drinks.Toilets are immaculate. Only detractor is they have multiple individual loos, but have separated these into single-gender signs. Could easily all be marked as gender neutral as each is self-contained/single-person use.Some power sockets and free WiFi.
