Four of us visited for lunch yesterday, which we all enjoyed. Two had soup and sandwich combo (carrot and coriander soup was excellent), another had quiche of the day and the fourth member of our group had a baked potato with cheese and beans. All of this followed by 3 lattes and a pot of tea. Whilst we can't fault the food, the mystery remains of the queues outside the cafe to the top of the stairs. We appreciate that at 1pm there will be a lunchtime demand, and as we were a group of 4 then we would need to wait for a suitably sized table. It was only as we were being seated at our table for 4 (20+ minutes later) that I noticed a complete section of empty tables, probably 6-8 of them. If they were short-staffed, and had closed this section off, then it might have been courteous to explain this to those waiting rather than merely announcing that there will be a wait as there were no available tables. Opted to just give an average rating, as despite the food being good and the cost reasonable £10 per head approx) there are better cafes elsewhere in town so at best this would have been very good, now minus one for unnecessary queues.

I have been to Barbour's Restaurant now a few times this year and am pleased to say it has been consistently good. I appreciate that since COVID times have been hard for not only businesses but for people in general as money is tight and when you do go out, you want a good product at a reasonable price. Barbours does this helped by having lovely staff who go above & beyond to help every time. The food is exceptional and great value and if you like scones, it's a must. I would highly recommend a visit ?.

Had our Tetrad Harris tweed furniture from Barbours last autumn. They price-matched for us, and we felt we had a personalised service throughout. We consciously decided to use a local firm with local knowledge, and were impressed throughout.

The shop has a few good ranges -the cafe serves revolting coffee - inedible food and as for the rough and ready foul staff in the cafe ! please avoid this cafe and go to the many other local offerings .

Love visiting this cafe upstairs in the Barbours store. Warm welcome and pleasant ambience. Chatty helpful staff and good food from tea and cake to substantial lunches and breakfasts. Highly recommended and best in Dunfries

It's so nice to visit Barbour's restaurant and get table service. It certainly beats queueing in other places. Good cup of coffee and best bacon roll in the town. Very reasonably priced. Nice to have a wee look in the store as well.

A wee look around Barbours and upstairs for lunch ,we took the steak pie and potatoes and veg for £6.95 . An absolute bargain .The menu has quite a few choices on it and caters for different tastes Staff are observing covid regulations and tables are well spaced apart . There are lifts available if you cannot manage the stairs

Upper end pricing but the food was very good and the staff were very efficient, polite and all Covid measures very well adhered to. In order to get 5 stars I would be looking to see the prices a bit less, it is a cafe after all!
