• Bistro • Moffat

Booked 6 times today

The Black Bull Inn, Moffat is an independently owned, award winning Scottish hostelry, established 1568. The oldest hostelry in the area, the Inn is well known for its links to Robert Burns, Scotland’s National Poet who visited during his heyday. The Black Bull is also connected to another notable character from history – the controversial Earl (Bonnie) of Dundee, who commandeered the Black Bull as HQ in the 17th century and oversaw the persecution of Scottish Presbyterians from within its walls. With olde world ambience and atmosphere oozing out of its walls, the Black Bull is a welcoming, warm and interesting place to visit, with touches of traditional Scotland interwoven with contemporary twists and is everything an ancient Scottish hostelry should be. With great food, excellent wines, superb cask ales and beautifully styled rooms the inn never fails to charm both international and UK patrons and their pooches too.

Two of our meals were as excellent as usual. My wife ordered the spaghetti meatballs and while the pasta and sauce were ok the meatballs were vastly overcooked and like boulders. Sadly inedible. Shame as this is our “local” where we take all our visitors .

The food , service and ambience were excellent as always. Excellent lunch menu beautifully presented and fully explained by the first class waiting staff. Only thing that was a n issue was that the seats are extremely uncomfortable and should be replaced.
