Previously I've left 5/5 reviews for the evening food. I was disapointed with the recent breakfast we recieved. We got 2 fry ups, and upgraded to get additional items, and 2 pots on tea. The pots of tea were different temperatures one was hot and was was luke warm. The mushrooms were raw and parts of the mushroom hadn't touched the pan as it was still white. The fried onions weren't fried. We told the waitress who said "I'll tell the boys (chefs)" she didn't return or replace the undercooked food and we were charged full price when paying. Very horrible experience when other times have been fantastic.

Was in for dinner on Saturday night before a show, 2 of us had the macaroni cheese, one had scampi and the other had gammon steak. Food was absolutely perfect, so well presented and delicious, excellent portion sizes too. Have been a few times and the quality and service never disappoints. Thoroughly enjoyed our meal.

We had breakfast last Sunday, it was wonderful I had the eggs Benedict with maple bacon and a tea ( 3 cups in the pot ) and the wife had the small fry up. Great Update Popped in for lunch, smoked salmon and prawn salad (wow oh wow ). The ham toastie was perfect. A portion of dirty fries just topped it off.

Nice chips, nice staff, but over-priced and I wasn't confident that I was eating something vegan. I had checked before booking whether there was anything vegan on the menu, and was told that the server would explain the options on the night. The menu had several dishes marked as having gluten-free options but nothing market as vegan, so I did have to ask the staff member. I was told that the soup, tempura, macaroni cheese or burger could be made with vegan-friendly alternatives. I chose the burger. But what came was not the promised beetroot burger, but something that reminded me of a frozen supermarket burger that I wouldn't even have scraped the barrel to have for dinner at home. When asked whether everything was ok, I said that it wasn't a beetroot burger, and was advised they had 'changed suppliers'. The bun was also a bit yellow and crispy, so I suspected it was brioche and by assumption contained egg. I didn't want to make any more fuss and spoil our evening so I just ate it. The pricing structure is pleasantly simple - one course is £16. But if you are having the vegeburger, then this doesn't feel great value.

5/5 Food was amazing!!! The starters were lovely, but the salad is dry, needs a dressing or a side pot of salad cream or something to make it not rabbit food. Main meal, it was nice to find a restaurant that gives you a hot plate to keep your food warm. We asked them to cook the veg so it wasn't al denti and they cooked it to perfection. Steak pie meat was so soft, pie gravy was delicious. Food was great, would 100% go back. Drinks are a bit too pricey, and with the 2 course meal, the jump up for desert which I think was £8pp is a bit too steep.

Had dinner with friends before seeing The Nutcracker. Great service, friendly efficient staff. I didn't finish my dessert before curtain up, so the waitress offered put it in a box and keet in the fridge until the interval when I returned to the restaurant and eat it. . Now that's what call service. When the staff discovered it was my friends birthday celebration they brought her (unordered) a dessert complete with lit candles, and remembered she had told them she was gluten and lactose intolerant. Highly recommend the Stage Door restaurant and that whenever you possible support this great little theatre...... you can't beat a live show.

We had a breakfast this morning at the Stage Door. As always the food was spot on, allergies attended to, and when they say the plates are hot, they really are. Only four stars for atmosphere from me, because I am a Grinch about Christmas music, I should probably be placed under house arrest for the month of December.

To start off with, the Stage Door Cafe.. what can I say?Is it well worth it's money? Aye!Is the breakfast hot, warm, and tasty? Of course, aye!Is the service amazing and reliable? YES!Overall is it somewhere I'd recommend going for breakfast in the town? OH AYE!I visited the Stage Door Cafe, situated at the Ayr Gaiety Theatre, in Ayr of course to have some breakfast with family. On arrival, they offered us a table and got us quickly seated (without booking) and managed to get our drinks roughly 5-10 minutes into us sitting down, which was very good. Our menu's soon were off the table due to us swiftly ordering our breakfast, the menu had a not bad selection of meals, alongside something smaller for younger ones.Within 10-15 minutes of us ordering our food, it arrived. Very warm, and ready to eat, like it had just freshly been cooked, as we'd been hoping, and we were of course pleased with the time it took, alongside the final outcome of the plates being absolutely cleaned to the core with us eating all of the breakfast due to it being tasty, delicious, and most of all AMAZING.However all I'd say is in the restaurant it can be loud at some points in the morning, depending if there is a large group of people, you can expect it can be loud as it isn't the biggest place the Stage Door, the only negative is noise, it can be loud sometimes, depends on who and when you are there, there is room to move about in the Stage Door, however it can be tight once again, when you are there, depending on times, groups being there, etc. More customers, etc, etc.Overall, I recommend going for a visit for breakfast especially and getting a nice breakfast, small or large, up to you, however the taste is always the same, and never different, and it's tasty!Thanks for reading my review on the Stage Door Cafe at the Ayr Gaiety Theatre in Ayr, Scotland.Your,TripAdvisor, Food & Tourism Reviewer

I wasn't turned away even though just getting a hot drink, or rushed, and the staff were friendly, efficient and welcoming.

I am surprised by any negative reviews on here as I can only comment on my own recent experience which was very positive. I attended the panto (this year ( which was very good) with my staff from my work and we had booked the restaurant for a meal after the panto. 13 of us arrived around 4.30 around with approx 50 people coming in at the same time which made the restaurant extremely busy. The drinks were served quickly and the food also came out quickly too. The food was piping hot and it was of an excellent standard with large portions. The chefs done a great job sending out all this food to quickly to a very very busy restaurant. I returned the next day with around 30 of my family, ( I know, panto 2 days in a row but it’s a family tradition as one of our family is in the panto), this time for soup and sandwiches before the panto and again the service and food were very good and the staff were very patient as although we tried to control the kids they still managed to run around the place on occasion. All in all I have nothing but positive things to say about this place and I will definitely return soon.

Nice play with some good options on the menu. Our party of 7 enjoyed most of the food and service, except for two issues The person who had the 'fresh' haddock and chips suffered from 24 of food poisoning (they'd only had toast previously that day) and some of us noted that what seemed like the manager had an unrealistic idea of his importance, providing an impersonal level of service and not being especially welcoming.

Went on a small adventure to Coylton Arms Inn. I have to say we will be back, the food is very good, a well seasoned lasagna with plenty of herbs, nice béchamel sauce and a good salad and french fries. The only small criticism was the lack of staff which made the wait slightly longer than necessary. The staff themselves were extremely welcoming and the ambiance was charming without being twee. Portion size was good without being excessive. All in all an enjoyable experience that I would recommend for a pub lunch.
