The Carrick Pub & Restaurant in North Ayrshire

Love everything here! Good place for wee drinks and snacks

This is the best pub I am a female com in on my own I am made to feel safe and welcome. Love the staff Tara Emma and the rest

After a few years of not going here after a bad experience, my Fiance, mother in law gave them another opportunity yesterday and went for lunch for my Fiancé's birthday. What a great experience! The food was excellent! Service was second to none! Great atmosphere too. The staff were very attentive. So glad we gave them a second chance. We will certainly be back

Brilliant food and fast service. Morgan was especially excellent and was really good with the kids when serving at the table. 5 minutes tops for waiting for excellent grub. Highly recommended

I come here regularly - never had a bad meal. Portions are generous, hearty and the price is excellent value. The staff are always impeccable from the service to the conversation - I always feel comfortable and welcome. A hidden gem in Irvine for sure! Would highly recommend!

Neve was attentive and friendly both at the bar and whilst serving our meal. We both had a Sunday roast which was tasty and plentiful. Pub was quiet.

The carrick is a great place for a meal and a drink with family and friends, staff are always helpful.will definitely come again.

Bill came to over £50 for 3 people and food was terrible chips cold on one meal and over cooked on another, cola had a chlorine taste to it and batter on fish had a horrible taste to it

Spent over £50 on 3 meals and was atrocious. Chips were freezing on one meal, batter on fish had a horrible taste to it, chips on another were brick solid from being over cooked and cola had a chlorine taste to it

In here a few times for some food or just a drink but today lunch and some Prosecco, nice and friendly approachable staff , staff always chatty and if need anything they always on hand

Visited the carrick for lunch with family and tried the new texan smoky bbq and bacon mac-stack burger definitely recommend this if you haven't tried was really tasty

Food was delicious and the service was so friendly!

We had the Sunday roast dinner and it is very nice and I will been having it again

We come quite often to the Carrick as a group of 4, as my friends husband has dementia it is a calmer and more cosier place for him to settle and not too noisy.We were served by Shelley who as always is very courteous and efficient,we shall continue to come to the Carrick, it's a nice day out for us oldies.

Visit the Carrick often always a nice friendly atmosphere, bar staff are always presented well and very accomodating, Lee the bar person was very helpful my last visit

This place is very basic. It's disorganised. Staff very unhelpful. Disabled toilet out of action, so elderly people really struggling to climb dozens of stairs to use the toilet. Loads of dirty plates, glasses etc lying around. The food was OK, no real issues with that. Looks like it needs new management.

Was in Saturday afternoon, football/sport on all the tvs, food was great and was really quick service

Great value for money and friendly staff. We had the burger and beer deal on a Tuesday night and it was delicious. 🍔🍻😋

the waitresses are really kind, professional and smiling… the good food is served in good time…

Good friendly pub. Food good and staff friendly and helpful

Marymass Saturday, the place was buzzing. Good food and very reasonable Rioja.

Went in last Monday food was excellent, friendly staff members.

Didnt have 3 diff drinks we asked for .. and alot more expensive than the other pubs in Irvine

Very friendly staff and great service. No1as a pub in irvine

I've been in more than once. Service was quick with the app and without it. Always checked on to make sure everything is ok. The food is great too, amazing for a breakfast. Or if your in for a pint side snacks are class.

We went in for some breakfast yesterday, the food was lovely and the English lady behind the bar was really nice and friendly. She chatted to us for a while and was lovely. We will definitely be back 😊

It's my regular pub. I find the staff all polite and friendly. Good atmosphere, Meals are very good, quickly cooked and comes to your table, still hot. Best pub in the town.

Love coming to the carrick the girls are so lovely always have time to chat and check in with me and my partner place is looking really good with every alteration made to give it that bit of tlc and the food is the best in irvine love coming here and can't wait to see what's to come with the managers personal touch

We frequently have lunch in the Carrick as staff are really friendly Today was to celebrate our granddaughters 2nd birthday the food we had ordered was brilliant and staff were excellent

Hadn’t been here before so thought we would give it a try and thankful we did, the staff were so friendly and welcoming had a beer garden just at the back which is specious a lovely area to relax and have a drink. FYI our group was a group of five when we ordered our food it arrived almost at the same time hot and delicious, couldn’t fault our experience. Already made reservations for our next visit later in the month 🍷🍔

Friendly staff ,food was lovely, attentive and welcoming 😀😀 Would and will be coming again. Beer garden was lovely and had a variety of sports on.

Friend and I, and our children had popped in here for lunch. Staff at bar were lovely and friendly. The disappointment was that both mums ordered dishes including salad, but we were informed they had run out of lettice, so we asked for more tomato, onion and cucumber- to be told these items were running low! We went up to order the children’s desserts- fruot kebabs, churros and ice cream- again, had run out of things and was told only ice cream and brownie were in stock. Definitely wont be back. Very poor to be running out of ingredients and that many dishes- poor stock management!

Advertising the Euros. Majority of TVs not showing the Euro's. Asked if they could change the channel. First answer was you can change your seat to be near a TV showing the channels. Not the best answer. Next answer was we can't change the channels as they are all set up and cannot be changed. Very hard to believe. Perhaps the majority of the TVs should be set up for what is advertised I won't be back. It didnhelp that there were wild children running around the place. Modern parenting at it's best.

Great staff and food as well go every Sat morning with about 18 to 20 people. Vets breakfast club.

Nice enough wee pub will be back definitely

Great place for a late night drink and bite to eat. Always a nice relaxed atmosphere with good music and fantastic service from the staff who are always up for a laugh. Looking forward to attending the open mic nights and will definitely be indulging in the burger deal and a few drinks. We were last at the beginning of the week for a meal and the standard never slips in terms of service from the staff and the quality of the food, great range of food and always something to please everyone at the table

The Carrick location is ideal for me when I go out in Irvine for a drink and food but ordering on the app has caused issues sometimes it's missed and I end up waiting far too long .The food quality went downhill and the cost of mixers for drinks when there's a spoon 5 mins away I would rather walk an extra few minutes to avoid getting charged extra and wait longer.

Quite a tasty lunch however the vegetables broccoli of all things should not be microwaved that badly!

The food is great with fine draft beers and ciders 👍 Service is quick and authentically Scottish 👍

Adore this wee pub, nothing is too much for the staff to do and the food is devine! was in yesterday evening with family and had a steak pie and chipsThanks to the young ladies on shift for making it another great experience

Staff are amazing as always, polite and very helpful when it comes to ordering food, cant wait to return to the pub in the near future

Amazing service as always. Our go to place for food in the town. Never disappointed

Very disappointing atmosphere with passive aggressive employees. In addition advertised as a family family then places an age limit of 18 years on the likes of a pool table. No signs or explanation given just a very unfriendly staff member stating the rules. Can greene king or anyone involved explain why the over 18s rule is in place in what is advertised as a family environment? Not a good place to go if visiting as a family, plenty better choices in Irvine center.

Been here a couple times. Foods okay. Went again today just for a meal with my wife & son. Got asked to leave because I had a black hoody with a football badge on it, staff saying “we don’t accept football here” when their website says they show sky sports, TNT sports & football, football was on in the corner, not even the teams I had on. As someone who collects football tops, I wear them on most days. Won’t be returning. Will go elsewhere.

A wee lunch with friends, had not been in for years. Good atmosphere

Food lovely as always Service from the girls always top notch Atmosphere is getting so much better with the changes being made to the bar and its surrounding areas great job girls

All the female staff in the Carrick are brand new in my opinion can't fault them in any way kitchen staff always take time out of the day to check in see how regulars are. Pub has a great atmosphere the job the girls are doing is great on the decor. Only fault I can pick on is why do the fans need to be on when it not hot or busy

Just wanted a simple meal on Saturday evening. A green king pub. Enjoyed a reasonablely priced meal and would recommend

Excellent food and good natured staff. Good to see Gaynor caged in the corner to keep any stray flies off the happy diners

Pretty good but depends on what you're looking for.

Good food at great prices kids menu very good value

They had no fish or coffee wich is what my mother went in for. She got lasagne wich was overcooked and I had macaroni wich was bland. Would not recommend

Visited for a couple of drinks. Did not try the food though it looked and smelt nice coming out of the kitchen. Very Friendly staff. Comfortable pub, just like we like. The three of us will be back again

Kitsu curry & rice .not bad . Lasagne ___seen more meat on a Butcher.s pencil . ✏️ all pasta sheets Noooooooo

Had wheel chair plenty of room staff great

It was early evening and the bar was quiet. Found a cosy corner for a drink and a private chat.

Was very quiet when we were in that's why the score is low only one bar staff on

Food was fantastic and the bar staff were lovely

Really friendly staff. Great selection of beers.

The food for the price was amazing 👏 😋

Silly wee lazy lassie always the same in a grown-up environment!Children shouldn't be in charge!

Lovely place for a drink,meal and music. They also show sports.

Had a lovely meal today at the Carrick

Basic pub grub but clean and tidy. Great service

There was a strong fishy smell, not pleasant. Update back went in on Saturday to watch Ayr Gold Cup, and it was great

Nice place in the centre of Irvine. Staff were really friendly and efficient. Food was what you would expect from a chain like this.

My dinner was really good yesterday thanks

I have issues with cutlery. They make wraps I can hold in my hands. Staff always pleasant. I have amended my review because I have now been on a Sunday for several weeks and had a roast. It is worth the extra effort to use cutlery for me to get a Sunday roast. They have converted me. Cooked carrots (historically) I've always been my least favorite veg and the chef at the Carrick has converted me First rate all round

Excellent food and reasonable prices. Great selection of drinks. Toilets are upstairs but there is a disabled one on ground level.

Nice atmosphere. I wasn't keen on the tacos but apart from that everything else was good.

food great spotless clean reasonable prices

Lovely place food abd staff very welcoming

Haven’t been in for a while, but glad we didn’t miss out …. Cheered us up on a dreach and dismal day. Food was delicious, staff were friendly and helpful, it’s just a shame we couldn’t have done anything about the weather 🫣🤣🤣🤣

Food was lovely although I would have liked more gravy with my dinner optional extra to purchase more which if they gave you enough in the 1st place you would have to buy extra ( good money maker 😉) Fish was nice but as you can see in picture peas 🫛 needed the kiss of life Was kinda of dissapointed on Sunday we went in for dinner around 7.30 ish as its normally a bit quieter at this time and there where kids still in after 8 apparently only licensed to have kids in till 8 as this is what weve been told before when we've been turned away with grandkids but we left around 8.30 and the kids were still in ( hope it wasn't a case of there regulars or there known by staff ) as it shouldn't be 1 rule for 1 and 1 for others

Love the carrick, friendly staff & lovely food, been going for years 🙂

Was there at 2 on a Saturday afternoon and it was quite quiet, but the food was amazing, can thoroughly recommend the haggis fritters and the steak was perfect, my friend had the hunters chicken and thoroughly enjoyed it. Staff were lovely and the service was excellent. Will definitely go back.

Food was OK but hate the sticky wooden tables.

a bottle of miller £4/10p robbery

Had the pub special haddock and chips, fantastic value, huge portions delivered by friendly staff. Would recommend their food and drinks.

Visited this greenking pub and didn't disapoint food was lovely I can recommend the steak pie derek had gammon eggs & pineapple and the other 2 had hunters chicken all food piping hot well worth a visit

GOOD FOOD pleasant surroundings and its big and comfortable

I had a burger and it was well made, and the service was great.

Food is nice and reasonable price too. Used to be cheaper and larger portions which Is why I gave 4 star and not 5. But I recommend this place, I eat there often. The staff seem friendly and nice. All the food there is nice.

There were only a few customers in when we visited. The staff were very attentive and friendly. The drinks were reasonably priced.

Only been in 3 times , it’s okay

Excellent meal and drinks here at a reasonable price. Also served by a nice waitress.

To start of the pub is beautiful inside with booths, or tables with comfy chairs or tables with regular chairs. You place your order at the bar and it’s delivered to your table. I had the Belhaven steak & ale pie and chips with broccoli and it was absolutely amazing and the meat melted in my mouth. I would definitely go back and highly recommend it to everyone. I am here on holiday from Canada and wish I had time to go back before I leave. Just a quick update it’s now Sunday May 21 and I just had the opportunity to come back one more time before I leave Wed morning and ordered the exact same meal and it was just amazing as the first time. 10 STARS from me

Nice enough town centre pub and well priced food.

Don't know if the menu has recently changed but went in for lunch today and couldn't see a menu for sandwiches/toasties , only ciabatta (2 choices) ended up with mixed small plates but very average

Had lasagne and partner had mixed grill food was excellent also our waitress shelly was very friendly thanks loved our day out xxx

Yeah it was ok. Nothing out of the ordinary. Pretty much what you'd expect

Hi my name is Robert here is my review of the carrick in irvine here goes the carrick is a nice pub i go to it everytime i am in irvine i go with my mum and sometimes my aunt i always get a meal and a drink alcohol free beer i can not drink alcohol because of a problem i had a few years ago but the food here is so good always cooked to my liking and the beer is always nice and chilled so i like this place a lot i will give it 5 out of 5 stars i highly recommend this place if you want a good meal and a nice drink.

Only went in for a coffee which was lovely.

Great place to eat great atmosphere

Years ago we used to love this placed for its chicken. Now the chicken sharing plater is really low quality and the hot sauce for the chicken wings is simply disgusting. Really smelling toilets doesn't help either

The Carrick never disappoints! I love the food and the atmosphere here. My only issue would be that the booth areas should regularly be cleaned as they tend to stink of stale drink and whatever else. Other than that it's amazing! I love it!

Very friendly atmosphere definitely recommend !

Braw pub with a good pub menu. The food was very nice. Good selection of beers

Great atmosphere and drinks was ok priced

Visited here with a Groupon. £14.95 for two burger meals plus drink. Great food. Fast and pleasant service. Clean environment
