Took my 21yr old car (bit worse for wear) for wash. Was a lovely welcome, done a good job. Did at first think price was a bit on expensive side. Have to say god job!
Stopped off to get a bacon roll and coffee. The coffee was ok a bit on the small side £2. But the bacon roll was disappointing the bacon isn't cooked fresh, so paid £3 for a bacon roll with pre-cooked cold bacon roll. Won't be back for food. I have them two stars because this is more of a carwash than an eating establishment but it isn't hard to cook a bacon roll from fresh.

Hi Dtads,
Thanks for your review. We did used to have a full time staff member working, cooking all food fresh. However recent staffing issues have affected how much we are able to do in our kitchen. Appreciate your review and we are working on resolving the issue.

Had a premium wash and didn't get out of car. When I got home the car was an absolute mess. Parts missed, sills not touched. Was going to book both cars in for a full vallet and this was just an initial exterior clean, but with that wash. I'll not be back.
RESPONSE TO OWNER
So your response is very dismissive of the review. The way to avoid negative reviews is to quality control your service, not simply try and call out customers and state all cars leave immaculate. Clearly not the case. It's not the review that impacts your business, it's the poor wash! If you had simply accepted responsibility and asked me to return to correct it then I probably would have and edited my review to a positive review. Your dismissive response makes me say no ill not go back and I'll correct this elsewhere or even wash it myself. £13 wasred. I'll now take photos and update this tomorrow with the evidence in daylight for all to see and make your own minds up. There is a right way and wrong way to deal with a customer complaint, I hope you learn the difference.

Hi Craig, your negative review impacts my business. We wash our hearts out day in and day out up at The Auld Station. I think all that know us would agree no car has ever arrived an absolute mess and not left absolutely clean.
Kind regards, Cameron Friell the owner who was there washing today. Feel free to contact me to further discuss

Just had car wash here for the first time. Impressed with the efficiency, service and care taken. Not cheap but you get what you pay for and I would recommend. Friendly and polite.
Just Stop if on the A68
Long time since anywhere has been good enough for me to do a review but twice in the space of 24 hours I'd doing so. Drove to Edinburgh Saturday morning for a friends wedding - at somewhere called Carlowrie Castle, the other recommendation I'm doing this evening (you need a venue around Edinburgh for 50-100 people look no further. Anyway stopped at the usual places in Jedburgh with offering of Costa coffee and been there since 6am sausage / bacon roll. Passed on the food and started drinking the coffee but kept seeing these signs for car wash n coffee shop and there it was as I left Jedburgh. Thought wtf threw the Costa away and pulled in - car just valeted day b4 so didn't need so no idea what to expect but I needed coffee! Walked in to the most incredible aroma, really nice guy behind counter making staines. Ordered bacon sarnie with haggis slice and whilst he was cooking that his BLT's looked so good got one of them too. BLT stunning but then the bacon sarnie arrived - touch of black sauce.
This morning good breakfast at the Carlowrie but couple of hours later heading South on A68 just couldn't resist so went back in and ordered again with late. I kid you not £2.80 for the bacon sarnie, 50p for the haggis slice and an awesome cup of coffee, total £6 something.
Ok over the last few years value for money for quality food, these boys and girls have it cracked so much so that occasionally take the mutt for a walk round Kielder, someone respond with a good walk nr Jedburgh where the daft lab can swim and swim let me know and I'll be back, for an extra 20 miles or so definitely worth it

Thanks for the review Dale, see you soon! 👍🏽
The team at the auld station are fantastic! The detail they put into their work is the best. They had my car for the whole day for a detailed valet with paint correction. I got the car back looking and smelling better than when I first bought it from the garage. The food and coffee is also fantastic! I would highly recommend the auld station for their high quality services, friendly faces and fantastic food!

Great to see you Archie, thanks for such a good review 🙌🏽😁
Great experience: excellent coffee, very good bacon and egg roll. Friendly, efficient service. Didn’t try the car wash but will next time for sure. Will definitely be back. Highly recommend - and even worth a detour if you’re not quite passing by for quite the best coffee in the Borders.

Thank you for the kind review 😁 see you soon!
Absolutely amazing. Incredible service and food. I felt so looked after. They checked my vehicle over so well, even commented on my tyre tread and advised me to change front tyres that I hadn’t noticed. Very attentive, polite. Best service I’ve experienced in a long time. Really impressed. The smash burger is the best I’ve had. Great coffee and lovely wholesome chats while I waited too ❤️

Great place the owner is a great guy. We just met but I plan to stop there on our return trip! The bacon roll is amazing. Add haggis to it and cheddar cheese is really great.
