The Gordon Arms Hotel

Absolutely amazing food! Went as a family of 9 and all had starters and mains and every one of us were blown away! Each meal was delicious and far superior to your average pub food! Really great value with huge portions all round. It’s an absolute must if you’re in the area! Really friendly staff topped off our visit, thank you!

The Gordon’s Arms is a real locals pub. Lots of the clientele knew each other and there is a sense of a real community hub. But we were made to feel welcome on both visits and the food was excellent. We stopped for an evening meal in the bar and a takeaway pizza- both were excellent and reasonably priced. The bar is really dog friendly - not just paying lip-service as many places do!

Local talk indicated that The Gordon Arms is under new ownership and aiming to update in all aspects. As it is now our nearest local restaurant, we booked in. The reception was warm and friendly. The choice of tables was very good, all being nicely laid on polished old wood tops with quality glassware and cutlery. The menu was varied (with good choices for Veggies), several starters, 4/5 meat entrées and 2 more chef's specials, my wife selected the grilled Sea Bream with a delicious sauce. I chose the Duck Breast with a Mexican style sauce (mildly spiced to my order) and served rare. The vegetables were well presented individually. A good range of desserts was available and we picked a local ice cream and sorbet from Biggar which proved a lovely end to a very good meal. The wine list is quite extensive and with several choices by the glass. The service was attentive, efficient, and friendly. All very good value for a modest cost. The Car Park is easily manageable for old folk. I booked a repeat visit with no hesitation: The GA has taken a big step forward for food.

staff were very friendly and the bar and restaurant was great . came to west linton for a friends wedding so had an air bnb for the first few days then stayed at the hotel for our last night . We had already had drinks and food here a few times during our stay and each time was great ! such an awesome atmosphere with friendly staff . accommodation was comfortable and clean with some delicious free muffins and bars for breakfast as part of the room , as well as coffee and tea . would definitely eat, drink and stay here again ! thanks again gordon arms hotel !

Heading into Edinburgh from Yorkshire, feeling hungry, and we saw this pub so we spontaneously stopped off. Good decision! It is a lovely warm friendly pub with very hospital staff and we felt very warmly welcomed. We are vegetarians so held our breath when we looked at the menu, but a wonderful great variety of vegetarian options - and when the food cam it was absolutely delicious, and the price was fair - we are telling anyone taking this route to stop off at this pub (on the main road but in a nice community) and eat there rather than waiting until they arrive in Edinburgh. Thoroughly recommend and thank you to ALL the staff for a very very pleasant stop off on our journey!

Last minute booking. Very friendly welcome. Lovely, clean room. Dinner in the pub. Delicious food. Great atmosphere. No breakfast available but muffins, tea and coffee in our room. This was perfect for us as we wanted to be up and away early. Very pleasant stay.
