  “My friend and I had some food in the hotel while we stayed in Southerness. The gentleman on the bar was so welcoming and he made excellent recommendations for food. The cabin chicken pasta and Indian curry were absolutely delicious! The atmosphere in the pub was fantastic: it was welcoming and the music was great. The pub is right next to the beach and it is really dog-friendly (They even had a menu for dogs!) I highly recommend you visit here if you fancy some tasty food in a fabulous location.”

  “We stayed at a local Airbnb but we ate here a few times. It is dog and child friendly. There is a family area, a dog friendly area and a dog free area so they do well to accommodate everyone. The food is excellent. Everything is cooked fresh. The staff are friendly and enjoy a bit of banter. The background music is upbeat. The regulars who have caravans at the holiday park are friendly too. Highly recommend.”

  “If you get the opportunity to visit add it to your list of places to go! Fantastic place with a wonderful family gaming room, wonderful service and amazing delicious food. We used this lovely hotel during our camping trip and all felt welcomed, the service was impeccable with genuine conversation and fast service that came out with high quality food with outstanding flavours and plenty of food, I would highly recommend their cheesey haggis balls and creamy garlic mushrooms, they were to die for. We enjoyed the place so much we went back and spent another afternoon here, we highly recommend it and it's suitable for all ages. And the food and drinks were priced really well and affordable as were the games of pool at £1 each, if you get the opportunity make sure it's on your list of places to visit! With the beach and lighthouse a few minutes walk from here too.”

  “Friendly and welcoming staff, also the place is dog friendly. It has a very good selection of well kept draught beers and a wide selection of bottled beers, all at reasonable competitive prices. There is a good choice on the food menu. The meals are freshly cooked and good size portions.”

  “We only used the hotel for food we didn't stay in the rooms so I can't say what they are like. As for the food it was amazing so amazing that we came here twice for Dinners on our little summer break at the Park Dean Resort. I tried the large Breakfast first with haggis balls and second visit was the Indian Curry with Rice Naan bread and more haggis balls. No complaints if we are ever in the area again for a holiday this hotel is definitely on the list.”

  “Stayed local to the Paul Jones during the last week of April 2026 and ate here most days, either for lunch or dinner. What a find! Delicious, homely food cooked to a high standard and with great variety. From the comforting chilli on loaded fries - fabulous! - to the all-in Sunday roast, every meal was well done, tasty, hot, and served in good time. Our hostess Charlene looked after us splendidly with a ready smile and some great banter. And I really appreciated those special beers - both the local brew and the more unusual bottled beers (Moffat Toffee!) we tried later in the week. Thoroughly recommended!”

  “Worst Sunday dinner ever. Been coming to southerness for about 10 years and always eat here but never again. Dinner was tasteless, raw veg, frozen yorkshire pudding and microwave beef slices definitely not a beef joint cooked on site. Unfortunately been slowly going downhill since it was took over by current owners”

  “Excellent food cooked fresh and big portions. They have a all day menu, additional lunch items and also a dog menu. Dogs are welcome. There is a games area, plenty of seating and log fires. There is parking at the pub and across the road. The place is very clean and well done out inside.”
