Caberston Cafe - Scottish Borders

Winter day in November. Restaurant very cold. Radiators not operating. Only apparent menu pinned to wall at servery with very small print.and difficult to read. Cheese and chutney toastie. white cheap bread, tasteless cheese, chutney very nice.,diced salad fresh but placed on plate with bare hands, four Pringles. Come on! You could do better than that . Menus on tables with request to order at counter. Decent bread from a baker wholemeal, sourdough, seeded or anything else. Choice of brown.or white cut a bit thicker to look better. Invest in a reasonable cheddar. Chunkier salad perhaps a bit of fruit in it grapes, blueberries orange. Make it a bit different. Crisps crinkle cut? would look better than four stacked Pringles. Think about it. Above all, heat the place and if the system is broken tell people and apologise they will understand.

My elderly friend and I were warmly welcomed at this restaurant. We only wanted a light lunch and that was no problem at all. The staff was exceptionally friendly and our lunch was fresh and nicely presented.

This restaurant is a hidden gem with delicious and satisfying food. The customer service is excellent and you'll want to come back again and again.

Called in for lunch during a recent cycling trip. I had messaged the owner in advance to check out gluten free options as I'm coeliac. I had the club sandwich, it was excellent. I had gluten free cake which was very nice. The coffee was also very good. It was all so tasty we called in again 2 days later.

This place is a real gem. Not fancy, but great home style food. LOVE their soups and hubby swears by the BLT sandwich, best he’s ever had. Great selection of freshly baked cakes, loafs and scones. A trip to Home Basics and then lunch here is always worth the drive ; The
