"Visited the Cree Inn one year ago at same time of year with my partner. We had an amazing experience. Waiter and chef were so warm and welcoming and the food was delicious, especially the homemade cheesecake. We ended up staying after dinner and having more drinks in the bar because it was so nice. However we returned this year and were so disappointed. Was unsure of serving times so called the restaurant during the day and was advised stop serving at 8.30pm. We arrived at 8pm (having worked in the catering industry prev I know this isn't an ideal time however we were on holiday and time got away it shouldn't have effected service). We were served by a young lad who had no customer service skills and looked like he would rather be anywhere else. We were the only two people in the full restaurant. He then advised us about all the menu options that were not available, which left little to choose from. I advised I would probably just have a starter and desert, while my partner finally decided on a starter and one of the burgers with all the extras. Waiter then came back and said no burgers available. At that point fed up with the negative atmosphere and limited food choice, we decided to just order two starters and then head somewhere else. We got two drinks and two desserts costing only £22 whereas had the service been the same as before and food items actually on the food menu that were advertised we would have easily spent upwards of a £100. When we come back next year we will not return."

"we were here for a few nights while we walk a bit in the galloway hills. I knew that they had a vegan menu, as I mentioned it on happy cow, but if they went to the restaurant, they really wouldn't know! the menu they give, they don't mention vegan dishes, there's nothing they say to ask for the vegan menu and the personal did not mention it! but it really exists! and it offers four vegan netzens that are ideal for a pub in a small town in Scotland! they can choose from a vegan roast, a vegan burger, a penangurry or a sweet potato mushroom tar. we had the first few options that were quite decent if not amazing. expect chips with everything it is, so a place! updated by previous review on 2022-04-11"

"Delicious takeaway to end a lovely family holiday to Newton Stewart. We had a mix of meals, starters and sides prawn/chicken/vegetarian. Good reviews all round! Reasonably priced meals, decent portion sizes. Only things we would have liked to see on the menu that wasn't there was salt and pepper chips and tofu options. Would reccomend this takeaway as good as most across the country. Note: the takeaway is cash only (nearest cashpoint is just over the road). Thank you Dynasty."

"I am quite puzzled by the positive reviews this restaurant has received. It seems that only regular or well-known customers receive good service, while everyone else is ignored. We were seated at our table and then left waiting without any offer of drinks or assistance with ordering. After waiting for quite some time, we had to request service ourselves. The drinks took a long time to arrive, and the waitress was unable to differentiate between regular coke and Diet Coke. The quality of the carvery was decent, with tasty potatoes and Yorkshires, average meat, and watery cauliflower cheese. When we wanted dessert, we had to ask for service once again as it was not offered. Despite having plenty of staff, they all seemed unhappy and not focused on providing good service. We were not impressed with the lack of attention to customers, upselling, or engaging with guests. We do not plan on returning or recommending this restaurant. It would be better to drive a bit further to Gatehouse of Fleet or Kirkcudbright for a better dining experience."

"Once upon a time, I had a craving for some spicy kick, and Rainbow Chinese's king prawn with chilli pepper came to the rescue. The vibrant red sauce and succulent prawns took me on a fiery adventure. With each bite, the heat intensified, and I couldn't help but fall in love with the thrilling flavors. It's a dish that will awaken your taste buds!"
