On holiday in the locale of Seasons so had to visit. Last time we were here it was Chapters. Overall, it was very enjoyable.Eyemouth scallops to start were delicious although the bed of black pudding was a bit frugal. The Shetland trio of lamb was superb. My wife's sirloin special was tasty but too much for her although I helped demolish the accompanying French fries. At £24 the white wine from South Africa was perfect.

We had an excellent meal at this restaurant. Itâs a notably smart restaurant with delightful staff. GF options are available. The meals were of high standard. Leave room for the desserts - sticky toffee pudding and apple crumble & custard. However, because of the quality, expect to pay up - steaks are around £27.

Melrose has a lot of eating establishments to choose from so we opted for the Townhouse as I had been there a few months ago for a funeral and it seemed nice.Inside the décor was nice and there were other couple easting which I took as a good sign.I love Cullen Skink (read my other reviews) and it was a deciding factor too in coming into the Townhouse. It was fantastic! Really nice. My companion had fish in breadcrumbs and chips and he really enjoyed it.Sadly my issue is more with customer service â I had ordered a chicken and bacon mayonnaise sandwich to accompany my Skink and everything arrived together as requested. That was ok. The lady who I assume was manageress delivered my sandwich calling it a âciabattaâ which should have alerted me I guess. It also came with chips and I had a feeling what I ordered came with crisps. I thought she was maybe trying to âposh it up a bitâ?Anyway once finished my fantastic Skink I started into the sandwich and found onion chutney with the bacon. I assumed it was a fancy sandwich so ate more. I started to wonder where the chicken was and after eating the first half opened up the second to find bacon, some cheese, rocket and onion chutney. No chicken or mayo to be seen. It was not an unpleasant but was not what I had ordered. I watched as the staff scuttled about to other diners and expected a check back â âis everything ok?â â it never came. So I ate the second bit of bacon and left the rest. In fairness I ate some of the chips and picked at the veg in the side salad.When the girl came to clear our plates she then asked if everything was ok. We said the fish was lovely and that the Skink was fantastic but I pointed out to her that the sandwich was not the one I had ordered.In these days of food allergies etc I was trying to be helpful. Luckily I donât have any allergies. I know that mistakes happen but it is how an establishment deals with them that show up the good places from the bad. While I do not like to complain or make a scene or fuss I do realise that if no-one says that something is wrong then an establishment canât put things right and thatâs not fair to them either. If you read my profile youâll see that I once sent food back and that went really badly â Iâll never do that again!The girl apologised and went to the lad behind the bar (he had taken the order) and they looked at our check and I heard her explain that the way he had written down the order had caused the mistake. He came over towards me and I asked for the bill. The manageress lady came in and rung up the bill after she had been in conversation, outside, with the girl serving.I went to the bar to pay and asked if I had been charged the full amount for my sandwich (gathering evidence for TA) The manageress rather curtly replied âyes as I had eaten it.â I explained that I had been waiting from a check back and she said âWe donât do that!â and continued to lay all the blame at my door â I should have said something sooner. She made me feel very stupid, sad, humiliated and angry. There was no hint of an apology from her and as a result I would say to anyone thinking to eat here to think twice. If you do â check very carefully what you order and more importantly what you actually get. If she had simply said âsorryâ and maybe a couple of quid off the bill â this review would have been glowing!I'm very sorry that you received the Bacon, red Onion & Brie Ciabatta instead of the Chicken, bacon & Mayo Sandwich on your visit on Monday. I hope you will accept our apologies.Our Staff try hard & make very few mistakes so I feel you are slightly over reacting when you write to warn people to think twice before eating in the Townhouse, especially when you actually sounds like enjoyed your meal with us.Thanks again for your review

We recently visited The Hoebridge as a group with our friends. Although the restaurant was busy, following drinks in the bar we were seated in the private conservatory area. Kyle and his team were very attentive and orders taken we didnât have to wait long for our food to arrive. A starter of burrata, Parma ham and peach followed by a lamb main were very tasty. I finished the meal with a homemade warm crumble/ fruit tart which I very much enjoyed and a coffee. A great night in great company.

Driving to Glasgow airport after staying with friends nearby. They advised a look at Melrose and we chose to have lunch here after reading Trip Advisor reviews. So clean and a great feel when you walk in. The staff were very friendly and the menu really interesting. Delicious lunch. We both had soup, one scallop entree and a local ham, cheese and chutney sandwich. Highly recommended.

We have been here a few times but I think we will just eat in the bar in future. Lacklustre menu with a disinterest to some extent from the waiting staff - you know the feeling, you are just another person having a meal! Very disappointing as this place with its great location for both locals (from miles around) and passing vehicles, could be something. Probably resting on its laurels.
