Cavens Arms - Dumfries and Galloway

A separate vegan menu with one starter, 4 mains and 2 desserts. We tried the mushroom, pea and broccoli tikka masala and the burger, and shared. Really yummy! Nice to be able to visit somewhere with our fussy omnivorous family (not nice to sit amongst meat being served obviously, but needs must, just mean that it 's rare to find somewhere to appeal to us both). Dog friendly outside in the beer garden. Had fudge cake for dessert. Cake tasted like the supermarket just love one not a criticism at all, just a comparison. Ice cream didn 't have much flavour but was still pleasant! Updated from previous review on 2021 06 27

It is great to be able to order a vegan menu, the variety not only has to resort to a single offer, or ask for a special vegan meal. Garlic mushroom starter was delicious, and the burger, curry, main dishes were delicious. Burger seemed homemade and had a beautiful clobular texture. Service was very courteous. We're locals and we're gonna go back.

I love the separate menu and the fact that I would have asked for something else. The staff is nice and welcome. Two times and returned in June
