Cafe At Designs - Dumfries Galloway

We ate lunch here after wandering down the high street in Castle Douglas. The staff were friendly, there was a pleasant busy atmosphere. The meals were really great as were the coffee and cakes afterwards. Good toilet facilities and enjoyable browse in the shop too.

I had a fantastic lunch at the restaurant, enjoying a delicious brie cranberry toasted sandwich and a refreshing rose lemonade. I would definitely come back again.

Lovely well run cafe with excellent home made cakes, Lemon Drizzle and Orange and Almond Polenta cake were to die for! Lovely staff and service from this young enthusiastic team. Lovely ambience throughout. Would most definitely recommend.

I had a great time sitting in the shaded garden, sipping a delicious cup of tea to escape the intense sun. The cheese scones were delightful. The owner kindly allowed us to stay even after closing time while they cleaned up.

Not the first time I have reviewed this venue, but sitting in the garden, shaded from the blazing Galloway sunshine, dog at my feet, wife by my side .... what could be a nicer way to while away a morning. Dogs allowed only in the garden, but there is shelter if the weather is not the best. Good service, good coffee and great cakes. The shop associated with the cafe is full of quirky, classy books, presents and trinkets.
