We recently spent some time in the Dumfries area of Dumfries & Galloway in Scotland. One of our favourite places to eat during our stay was The Steamboat Inn in nearby Carsthorn. However, we also took the time to sample many other establishments, speak to the locals, read visitor reviews, and order takeouts. A popular option for dining out in Dumfries is Indian cuisine, although fewer restaurants sell Indian food than in most other cities we have visited. So, let’s look at some of the best Indian restaurants in Dumfries.
The Indian Palm: One of the Best Indian Restaurants in Dumfries Overall
Not to be mistaken with nearby India Palms, which is a takeout-only venue, The Indian Palm is one of the best Indian restaurants in Dumfries overall. It is also one of the best restaurants for vegetarians in the city. Alongside the meat and seafood dishes, there are plenty of options on the menu for vegans and vegetarians. Customers praise the excellent customer service and the wide selection of wines and beers to accompany your meal.
