The Cobbles Inn features a frequently changing menu, which used the finest local produce and seasonal ingredients.

At The Cobbles Inn, we make every dish from scratch with everything being as fresh and local as possible, our efforts were recognised when the restaurant was awarded the Local Produce Champion award at the 2007 Scottish Borders Eating Out Awards. However, we don't try to over complicate things, nor are we pretentious about food, for us it's all about combining fresh seasonal ingredients from our 'backyard' that is the Scottish Borders with maximum concentration of flavours. We have our own take on the great British classics while trying to introduce different cultural flavours for our customers.
