Expect all the hits from the 60s right through to the present day.

We can promise you'll sing them anyway. 🍻🎤

Grab your mates, claim your favourite spot at the bar, and join us for a cracking night of live music.

We are back up and running and opening the bar at 5pm. We need some help testing the ale lines, the white wines, the gins, and the Guiness Zero. If you can help, please form an orderly queue.

Sorry that we were closed for lunches earlier, the kitchen is back open tomorrow from 12pm for lunch, and the evening service resumes again from Thursday at 4:30pm.

*Edit* The energy company has been and gone and we're opening the bar at 5pm for anyone suffering from a case of the Mondays! Thank you!

We're unfortunately closed tomorrow (Monday) as we have some electric upgrades that need attended to and we've been given a really helpful timeslot of 8am-8pm. Really sorry for the inconvenience. We'll use the opportunity to get through our spring cleaning too!

We do have an exciting announcement on Wednesday though to hopefully make up for it and we'll also be back for lunches from Tuesday and serving evening meals again from Thursday.

Thank you all so much for your continued support, you're all marvelous ❤️

🍺 ON THE BAR NOW – TAE BASH! 🍺

A beer 28 years in the making...

We're delighted to be pouring TAE BASH, a West Coast 4.9% IPA from Five Kingdoms Brewery right now at The Wigtown Ploughman.

Here's what the creators have to say:

"We were really excited to be invited to be part of the Everywhere We Brew: TASA Collaboration Project.

Breweries from all over Scotland have created limited edition beers to celebrate the Scottish Men's Football Team qualifying for the 2026 World Cup.

Even better, a percentage from each beer goes to the amazing Tartan Army Sunshine Appeal who do incredible work all over the world"

So, if you fancy trying a beer that's celebrating Scotland's journey to the 2026 World Cup and supporting a fantastic cause, get yourself down to The Wigtown Ploughman.

⚽🍺 TAE BASH is pouring now – but it won't be around forever!
