Loch Arthur cheese, Galloway jam, Heather Hills honey and Pelham meats, the Larder Café is an absolute must for a delicious breakfast, a good lunch or a well-deserved four o'clock. Everything is prepared with great care and provides great flavors that you can't get enough of, from Scottish Breakfast to scone, quiches, soups and sandwiches. The small room with yellow tints and large windows is quickly filled. It is therefore sometimes necessary to arrive quite early, but it is really worth it!

I heard good thing about the Larder. Unfortunately, I didn't know that this was an extension to the main restaurant. Which shouldn't make a difference, but the place felt crammed.
The food was great, every last piece of it, but the plating felt like a cheap gimmick. They used lunchboxes, which maybe someone thought it is a good idea, but unfortunately not great to eat out of, especially food that you need to cut up. I have seen some people use the lid as a plate, and place their food there instead of the metal lunchbox. Mine was taken away before I could do so.
All in all, food great for breakfast. There was a small queue in front (waiting for either of the restaurants - main or Little Larder - to clear for spaces), but I would recommend the main one more. At least the toilets are located in the main one, not in the small one. So going over to the other side to use these facilities felt like intrusion.

It was a pretty good ambiance plus the food was amazing. Just make sure the tables are reserved well in advance. They dont accept walk ins.

The food exceeded our expectation for a typical Scottish breakfast but the service was below standard. They should improve on how to treat their customers better as we had to wait outside for 30 min and we were a group of 5 and there were at least 10 people in groups of 2 that were behind us the que that got to go before and I don’t understand why the waitress didn’t lead us go in as we were fine being split up. In my opinion I suggest the potato scones and the poached egg(the bacon is a bit hard)

My friend recommended this cafe to me and i am so glad i decided to try it. I ordered waffles which arrived fresh and warm, were so well balanced, & not overtly sweet at all. Total was about 20£.

We didn't book so had to queue for about 15 minutes but you could tell that staff were doing their best to seat you as fast as possible. However once you were inside and eating, you never felt rushed or pushed to leave.
