The Restaurant at the Annandale Arms is open to both residents and non-residents.The place to eat in Moffat....

   

"The menu is a careful balance of traditional Scottish and international recipes, using the best of local produce served in a relaxed and informal atmosphere. Scotch beef,game and wild salmon are found at the forefront but for a more rustic option try the the steak stout and mushroom pie served with hand cut potatoe chips". Routier Gold Key Award

A large selection of home produced items can be found on the menu throughout the year subject to seasonal changes. Besides the a la carte menu there are daily special offers. Do try the Annandale's very own Moffat Munchie. 

Scotch Beef at its very best

Well matured Buccleuch Heritage steak flash grilled to perfection.

Simple and succulent

"Frae morn to een it's nought but  toiling, At baking, roasting,frying, boiling;" Burns                                     

The secret is in the source.

Over a period of ten years good professional relationships have been nutured between the the kitchen and our local Scottish suppliers.  Great care has been taken to find just the right quality whether it be for wild Scottish salmon, scallops, organic lamb or well hung beef.  For example all our beef is traceable from farm to mouth. Guaranteed Scotch it is supplied locally from Buccleuch Heritage.  Hung for a minimum of twenty-one days ensures that it is perfectly matured. Source codes are checked and recorded in line with the stringent stipulations of the Scotch Beef Club. 

An example of a dinner menu if you book dinner bed and breakfast. The menu changes from day to day.
