Review Volunteer Arms - Dunbar

After parking my motorcycle near the castle I got chatting with a local who recommended the steak pie, and it was amazing. Service and food was very good, reasonably priced and I’d say better than what’s in the high street.

Couple of visits now. An exceptional, wee, very traditional pub. V cozy wee bar and snug next door. Ootside sitting area. Have not tried the food. 35ml measures so what's not to like?

Excellent little pub. Budvar on tap which was a pleasant surprise. Friendly staff and locals. Little outside area for when the weather allows with views towards the harbour. Also a restaurant upstairs, but I didn't have occasion to try the food on the last trip. Would highly recommend if you are looking for somewhere welcoming to stop after a day hiking or just in town.

This is kind of the quintessential small Scottish pub. You walk in, it's immediately clear everyone inside is local, know each other, and have for years. But they're also really friendly and make you feel at home. We dropped in for dinner after a tour of Belhaven brewery, and couldn't be happier that we did. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was fantastic. If you're in Dunbar, go here even if it's just for a pint.

Tasty food, friendly service. Good old fashioned pub with good old fashioned pub grub. Good atmosphere. What's not to like!?

A "proper" pub. Sell good beers (didn't have food). Thursday night is traditional Scottish music night. Very enjoyable indeed.

Had gammon and chips. Absolutely brilliant. The gammon was huge. I'm a big eater and couldn't get through it. Great place, nice people, good atmosphere highly recommend.

What a lovely afternoon at the aggectionately known Volly to hear traditional Scottish and Irish music outside in the sun with a shandy and my fave stepdaughter while others were crammed inside. But I snuck in to get a picture of the musician. Lovely pub with a long history in Dunbar. Always worth a wee stop in.

Well worth a visit! Had a lovely meal here, the Belhaven hot smoked salmon with potato salad with mustard dressing was to die for! Followed by scampi and chips cooked to perfection. Belhaven Best and Ossian cask beer was very enjoyable too. Will definitely pop in again when we're down that way.

Great wee pub. Lovely guest ales. Cosy atmosphere. Never eaten but seen plenty others doing so, so it seems popular and the food always smells great

Proper pub. Good cask ales. Friendly staff. Open fire. Does fund raising for the RNLI (lifeboats) hence the name. Looking forward to trying the food next time.

Popped in here after a cold walk on Easter Day 2023. VERY dog friendly. We only came in for a drink before heading for a pre booked meal. We could have eaten here as the food looked really good, home made pub grub. The bar area is surprisingly small when you see the size of the building, but it's really cosy and oldy worldy. My sort of pub, with a fine selection of ales, lagers etc. Staff and locals all really friendly. There's a nice front outdoor seating area with glass 'fence' to keep the breeze off - it was still too cold in the wind that day so we went inside. Thank you.

We popped in a couple of times while visiting Dunbar, service good, atmosphere good. Staff good prices good. They do food but we didn't eat here. Outdoor area and upstairs restaurant.

Great atmosphere is a very authentic pub experience. Friendly staff serving food in the bar or upstairs in the restaurant. The Volly‘s is situated close to the beautiful old harbour and has a compact outside space weather permitting.
