Brownings the Bakers in East Ayrshire

Best pie in the U.K. Delicious food 😋. Every time we’re in Kilmarnock we get some Killie pie and eat it right away. Yummy, yummy

Finding this location can be a challenge but it's well worth seeking out this industrial site in Kilmarnock. The shop is like a Portakabin hut attached to the main bakery - minimal food miles and the pies should be very very fresh as the shop is literally at the bakery gate! The queue for lunch was an interesting mix of Browning's own staff, local factory employees, assorted Joe Publics, the Royal Mail, Yodel delivery drivers and railway workers. The ladies in the hut are very welcoming and happy to make suggestions for a special lunchtime deal (pie/pastry, cake and a drink). Pam and Kate were in fine form keeping the queue moving with great service and some entertaining banter. This team know exactly what they are doing and we rather enjoyed our lunch - and it didn't break the bank either. Thank you ladies - you are doing a fine job from this customer's standpoint and that lunch kept us going all afternoon.

This brought back memories of my childhood living in Kilmarnock. A delicious pie in a Brownings well fired Scotch roll. I live in England and can get Scotch rolls but not well fired and nothing like as good, there is nothing like the taste of these and those made by Brownings are the best.

We visit here often, tucked away in the industrial estate, its a great little shop for lunch and everything is made fresh to order. They even sell chips! Highly recommend this place!
