We have been eating at Cobles (aka 'The Cobles') for so many years, but less so in the last eight years. It was good to return and be given a warm welcome. The food, as always, was excellent. My wife enjoyed both her starter of Haggis and Black Pudding bon-bons and her main course mussels were as good as those found in more Mediterranean climes. My main course of Red Chicken Curry was good and fiery. Sensible wine prices. Recommended.

We had a delicious meal when we dropped into Kelso yesterday. Cajun chicken in ciabatta the the most scrumptious home made chips and coleslaw. Roaring, open fire and welcoming staff. Perfect! ��

We ate here last night after spending the night in kelso. What can I say reasonably price and food absolutely beautiful. Haddock and chips was the best I have ever had and was plenty of it. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to try here. Next time we visit we r definitely returning to this place.

Very pleasant little gem of a pub. Had lunch on the spur of the moment.

The days menu featured local seasonal produce (grouse/venison) as well as more familiar fare. All dishes were very well presented, a great deal of thought and care having been given.

The cooking style was an eclectic mix of traditional familiar world cuisines using a local twist and local produce together with more familiar Scottish fare. The new seasons grouse broth in a Japanese style was excellent. The grouse cooked to perfection!

All dishes were a good size, neither stingy or overly generous.

The sweets were likewise excellent and not an afterthought.

Coffee also excellent.

Local brews available at the bar.

Service was just right. Attentive but relaxed and unobtrusive.

At the prices charged this is well deserving of a visit. Starters £4-7, mains £12-16, sweets £ 6-8 plus a cheese selection.

I'll be back!

This lovely little hideaway is just beautiful from a very warm welcome to the excellent service, the food was cooked to perfection and the steak is a must have, the presentation of the food was also excellent can't recommend this lovely place highly enough they also do a brilliant little kids menu definitely be back sooner rather than later

Thank you very much for a lovely meal last night. Can’t recommend the Cobbles enough. Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and delicious food! �

Thank you for a wonderful dinner this evening. We managed to make it through three delicious courses and the service was excellent too. The girls were working really hard and were cheerful all the way time we were there. My husband's rib eye was a particular highlight with a very generous helping of onion rings. We've been for lunch before but will definitely be back for supper again. Oh and great homemade bread! My side salad was really lovely - it's nice to see such care and attention paid to the little things.

Stopped here for lunch while exploring Kelso... What a good decision. The staff are friendly and the food is simply excellent. We can’t recommend it highly enough!

Just back from a lovely meal with our daughter and grandson. The fish and chips were delicious and the grandsons steak cooked just as he liked it.starters fantastic,service first class.Thank you all for a lovely evening .

Had a lovely meal on Saturday lunchtime. Hubby said it was the best fish & chips he's had in ages! Thanks so much also for humouring my little boy when he asked for 'owl ice-cream' (you'll know what I'm talking about if you've read the Gruffalo!!) He thought it was ace and it even tasted like chocolate! Lol. �

Had a great meal once again at The Cobbles last night. My wife and I said that it is probably one of the most consistently good Pub /Eating houses we have ever used! The ale is first class and the staff are always very professional and friendly. I would also add that there is no shock when you get the bill. Well done The Cobbles keep up the excellent service you offer!

Had a fantastic Sunday lunch with my girlfriend . Lovely dining room with attentive staff. My Top side of Beef with yorkie and all the trimmings was fantastic. My partners Fish and chips with curry sauce equally so. Sponge pudding with Earl Grey Ice Cream and my duo of ice cream delightful. At a very reasonable price. Will certainly be back.

Had a delicious lunch in this lovely wee place in Kelso while on our holiday in the Borders. Extensive menu of delicious sounding options from which my husband and I struggled to choose. Lots of fish and veggie options with a mixture of contemporary and more traditional dishes - something for everyone. Excellent, friendly service and all washed down with two very tasty beers from the award winning Tempest Brewery in Galashiels. Our dog was also welcomed into the bar area where we ate and water was provided for her. Can't recommend highly enough.

Great food great price great staff �

First time here...it won't be the last...just a wonderful meal...friendly, welcoming,attentive staff. Lovely dining area and absolutely fantastic food (compliments to the chef)..at really good prices. Would have happily paid more..
