Food and Drinks
Here are some of my favourite places to eat and drink in Melrose
Built in 1793, The Kings Arms is a cosy, lively place for fabulous food and company. They offer a variety of local ales which you can enjoy inside by the fire on wintery nights or in their fantastic beer garden on those summer evenings!
Their Traditional Scottish Breakfast is a must!
