Going to Glasgow on Thursday with my BIL to collect a car then driving back south.
We should be leaving Glasgow at about 12:00 and would be planning to stop for lunch within 1 hour. Any recommendations for a nice place not too far from the motorway?
Are you heading down the A74(M)?
The Old Stables Inn at Beattock is OK I suppose.
To be honest, there isn't a lot to choose from!
EDIT: Just found [url= http://www.offmotorway.com/m74_a74m_food_accommodation_list.htm ]THIS[/url] which might be useful.
Lockerbie could be a better bet for finding somewhere decent.
That was my thinking too. Struggling to think anywhere
Ambleside..
That is South of Glasgow...
There's plenty of pubs and cafe's in Moffat which is about an hour south of Glasgow. I can recommend Brodies restaurant in Moffat if you do go.

by 'tradition' gf and I brekkie in Lockerbie (in on S junction when heading N) head town centre, park on LHS just after lights and use 'blue' coloured cafe also used the pub there and that was ok (*these are functional/ok food as opposed to 'nice')
There is a big hotel/pub nearer the S Lockerbie junction - no idea about food there though.
There is a services just south of the border that has a farm shop in it and a nice cafe . Nice pies i recall , cant remember what its called .
Do you mean Tebay services ? Nicer than most services.
If you want "proper dining" that could hold it's own anywhere in the country then you only have the one choice - [url= http://http://www.hartfellhouse.co.uk/#/restaurant/4550763655 ]Limetree Restaurant[/url] in Moffat , not pretentious dining in the slightest and Matt (chef) and his staff cannot be faulted, he regularly wins awards and only uses the finest/freshest ingrediants, i'm happy to travel a 120mile round trip just to eat there , prices are very reasonable as well.
Nice one ๐ Amazingly Tebay services sounds spot on - who'd have thunk it!
