The Clyde Tearoom in North Ayrshire

After reading excellent reviews of this place we decided to try it for coffee and cake on the Saturday which were excellent so we booked for Sunday lunch. We both had an excellent cream of mushroom soup accompanied by a lovely roll. My wife had a superb macaroni cheese with hand cut chips and salad. I had a great lasagne and garlic bread. Excellent staff and the sea view whilst having lunch was great. Definitely a worthy of a return visit.

Thanks to the staff & the chef for a very enjoyable meal & for fitting us in at the last minute. The food was very well prepared; delicious, fresh & cooked to perfection. Everything was well presented and the price was fair. The restaurant itself is clean, simple and inviting with stunning views over the Clyde at sunset. The staff were very friendly and made us feel very welcome. We will definitely be back!

First return visit since the tearoom has been refurbished and possibly new owner? New entrance area and the Inside looks very stylish and the decor only enhances what is an amazing view of the Clyde Riviera. Great menu, nicely presented tasty food and excellent service! What more can you ask for…..oh, and plenty of home baking treats to tempt you! Would have loved to have seen a vegetarian soup option alongside the meat based one, as per previously, perhaps missing a trick there? Something to consider to cater for a wider audience. Overall a great visit, nice ambience, amazing views, lovely friendly staff and yummy food! What more could you ask for. We will be back! Thanks.

5 stars all round. I have already posted a fantastic review for Clyde Kitchen which is the same place. Amazing food,staff,service and surroundings. Thanks x

First visit on a rainy Sunday afternoon. Very nice lunch and glass wine. Great service from friendly staff. Good menu choices and excellent value for money. Would definitely call again and hopefully on a nicer day to enjoy the lovely views and settings. Also offer breakfast and dinner menus.

I took my Mum here today and left thinking that the place is a hidden gem. Standard of food for the price is exceptional and the views across the water were amazing. Quite a nice ambience in the restaurant too, with genuinely friendly and helpful staff. Special mention to a staff member who went out of her way to help me when I realised I had left the lights on in my rental car and drained the battery. She went out of her way to drive into town, bringing her father back with a jump starter pack to get us going. Talk about service!

Excellent service in a lovely location. We had lunch of a soup & sandwich & a cake at the Clyde tea room attached to this housing complex . Price was very competitive & the staff were very attentive. It was quite busy which speaks for itself. I will certainly come back in the future

Great place for a visit. Food was very good value. Service from staff was of high quality. I had Soup & Sandwich at £6.95 with a cake at £2.40. Would recommend highly. Will use again in the future. Views across Clyde were exceptional.

We went for tea and it was very nice we had chicken curry and it was lovely. Very friendly staff. Very clean also toilet spotless. Will be back again. Lovely view looking over the water.

My husband and I frequently ate at this tearoom. It has been closed for repairs to the roof. On opening we visited the tearoom to find new staff. We ordered soup and sandwiches and all I can say is the sandwiches were suitable for doorstops. Our meals used to be lovely with sandwiches cut into four with a side salad. We received two slices of bread with meagre fillings. Please bring back old staff and better knowledgeable chef that makes more of en effort.

We stopped off here for a break from driving in the awful weather and for a bite to eat. The tea room is attached to retirement flats. The Tearoom was not busy when we arrived, but we, and our dog, received a good welcome and we enjoyed tasty food

The staff here are really friendly and helpful and the food is good. We had the Sunday roast and whilst the beef was a bit tough, the meal was good overall.

We come here regularly. Can’t fault it. Food freshly made and delicious and well priced. Very friendly staff and fab views. Lots of parking. We’re always made very welcome. We look forward to returning. Highly recommended.

We visited here a few years back and had a very disappointing experience so decided to give it another try. It was very quiet, only 2 tables occupied and one waitress. The building is large and airy. The menu is quite small and the prices are a bit on the high side. We got a sandwich (nothing special but tasty enough) with a few crisps and a salad with limp mixed lettuce on the side. Also got a portion of chips which were ok. Fancied a nice cake after reading all the great reviews about them but the cake cabinet was looking rather empty. Not much at all to choose from and nothing appealing so didn’t bother. Nothing enticing me to return sadly enough as we are local.

A most enjoyable experience in terms of food, staff, surroundings, and views. A hidden treasure which needs to be shared.

Fabulous Saturday lunchtime visit in the glorious Scottish sunshine . Views from tearoom of the beautiful Clyde and isles are spectacular . Staff are fantastic ( especially the lovely young lady who enjoys the tunes on the radio)....hugely chatty, polite, helpful & just all round fab waitress, well done you, your sunny disposition is wonderful. Food is great, it’s homemade, tasty and great value. Great free parking. Beautiful location, visitors won’t be disappointed. Tearoom also sits on a bus route, so hop off the 905 and pay it a visit. Stay a while & enjoy......... ( p.s. the ice cream & cakes are also fab!)...see you again

Stopped off for a lite bite to eat as arrived early for a hen do at the nunnery. Sandwiches made to order as did not want a lot of mayo. Very well presented and served with a lovely side salad. The chef cans out to ask if we enjoyed them and we were well impressed. Went back for breakfast this morning and had french toast with bacon. Again food first class. Would highly recommend if in this area

Drove from Paisley to visit this venue to enjoy lunch and some coastal views on a nice drive out......was not left wanting for either. A beautiful, clear winters day framed the setting for this tearoom brilliantly. Still waters, snow capped hills and a clear sky......Scotland at its best . Great home made food topped the day well. The homemade soup was served with chunky bread, yum, yum. My mum loved her ‘made to her taste’ toastie , ..the filling combination she wanted were not on the menu ‘ no problem’ said the fantastically attentive waitress & her choice was duly provided. My niece enjoyed her omelette, and we all loved sharing the halloumi fries and hand made chips platter!! What a feast ...but we did leave room to sample some of the home baking ( & also bought some to takeaway). The cakes were fabulous . The young lady who served us was very friendly & attentive, a credit to the business. The food plentiful, freshly made and reasonably priced. The venue and views, stunning location! Free , plentiful parking is available. Do yourself a favour and pop in, what’s not to like

Ignore the couple of negative reviews. Go and enjoy the excellent freshly prepared food, served by friendly polite staff. A really good experience.

This establishment is actually the dining room of a residential home for the elderly that is open to the public.The food is of the standard you would expect in such a place. Whilst the staff are friendly the same can not be said for the residents.Avoid at all cost

as far as tea rooms this has good location lots of parking wonderful views of the Clyde but the food is overpriced and 2nd rate cafe food.foos is bland and hasnt that wow factor the menu sounds great but on the plate looks as though it was flung on the chips had a very dirty oily taste to them.all in the food lets this place down and does the charming staff personally nardinis is just 5mins the road best hold on to there

A well positioned Café on the banks of the Clyde in Skelamorlie. Next door to an old peoples home but that means good coffee, great cakes and doilies all for a good price too. If you need a coffee and are in the area don't drive past it. Ample parking and stunning views.

Great food and great service! Lovely place to visit with friends and family. Always enjoy our meals.

Stopped en route to Largs and enjoyed our bacon and egg roll, and toast. Spacious and airy, lots of tables, plus comfy sofa area. Fab views of the Clyde, and pretty grounds. Would recommend, and will be back!

My husband booked a belated Valentine Dinner for tonight 17th February at The Clyde Tearoom.

Visited here for lunch with friends and the food was lovely all made fresh to order, homemade soup was delicious and the service was excellent also. Cannot fault it, very nice spot to stop for lunch.

Excellent home cooked food and great value. Highly recumbent the Gammon, great deserts too. The interior is lovely and the are excellent views, bring your own bottle too!

we were there this month with my auntie and we had Sunday lunch. the food was excellent as was the service. very good value for money, we will certainly go again, the raspberry mousse was a delight!

My family and I went on last Saturday afternoon. Fantastic location. Staff were polite and attentive. Food was very good. We will be back. Well done Clyde tearoom👍🤗

Nice and friendly staff. Food was very good. Would recommend to anyone. A family of 5 on holiday at wemyess bay

Visited today. Ordered lunch rolls. Tuna mayo and egg mayo with salad. Served with crisps. Delicious. I'm a regular customer. They serve my tea in a mug, milk and leave the tea bag in. Friendly staff. Great service. Right tasty food. Let's not forget the view. I opted to sit outside as the sun was splitting the skies. Don't drive past. Stop and visit to try the amazing cakes and home cooked food. Xx

We have visited the Clyde Tearoom on a number of occasions and can confirm that the food is consistently good. The tea room has excellent views over the Clyde coast and there is also seating situated outside if the weather is kind. There is a good choice of food including home made cakes and scones. Well worth a visit

Le hasard fait parfois très bien les choses. C'est lui qui nous a amené mon épouse et trois enfants dans ce tea room.

This is a little gem of restaurant with lovely home baking and home cooked meals. It is a pity that it is not better advertised . Many of the people that I speak to locally do not know if its existence which is a shame.

La comida es realmente precioso, el servicio es excelente, un ambiente muy acogedor, las vistas son preciosas, que bien merece una visita.

Aparecimos aquí en un día con nuestra hija y yerno hace unas pocas semanas. El café es parte de una casa de retiro, pero no dejes que eso te desanime. La comida es todo recién preparado, variada y buena relación calidad-precio. El servicio es eficiente y muy agradable y aunque la decoración es un toque utilitaria, el lugar es impecable, incluyendo el loos. Realmente muy bueno, volveremos.

We held our small wedding reception in The Clyde Tearoom. 31 adults and 2 children. The food was so tasty,beautifully cooked and presented. The service was excellent. We couldn't fault the service we recieved from Angela and her team. This is a favourite place of ours to visit for breakfast, morning coffee, lunch, dinner at the weekends. Sunday carvery is so tasty. Be early as it runs out quickly. As for the home baking... from shortbread to scones then beautiful fluffy sponge cakes... you will not be disappointed.Don't drive past. Call in and enjoy the best cakes and food. Xx

Always friendly service. Freshly cooked food at decent prices. Not the best coffee I've ever had but really enjoy eating here.

This place is a gem of a find, everything appears to be homemade, the place is spotless and very nice, with a lovely view over the clyde, well worth a visit. Will be back soon.

Had the most amazing breakfast. At Clyde tearoom. Weymms bay. Family day out for mothers day. Staff were brilliant. The owner Angela. Came over too say hello and see if we were OK. Then I managed to sneak in some apple crumble and custard. Which probably dosent go after a breakfast. But wow. How tasty it is. Great place for food. From breakfast to dinner. And evening meals.. Or if you want a scone and a cuppa. Or home made cakes and bread. Give it a go really nice. And the views over the river Clyde. Outstanding.

Have been meaning to try this Restaurant for some time. What a find. The service was attentive, the food was excellent, and the prices very reasonable. Well worth the 5*.

A cosy, relaxed, clean and friendly wee place - Great home cooking and baking and locally sourced produce (where possible). Outdoor seating with fabulous views (weather permitting) and efficient, friendly staff too! The scones are just amazing and I recently purchased some home baked delights to take away... All packaged in pretty boxes at no extra cost - Brilliant! With ample parking too, the Clyde Tearoom really is a wee gem of a place and well worth a visit!

We enjoyed dinner there last Friday and morning coffee earlier in week. Both excellent with lovely views to Arran and Bute. Delicious choice of fish or meat dishes for dinner, BYOB, Friday only at present. Lovely staff, great bakers.

Passed many times but went for lunch today. Sat outside as it was beautiful. The food was delicious and I had the best scone I have ever had. It was really light totally amazing. Spoilt for choice with homemade cakes will definitely go back. Really friendly staff too.

We went here for lunch today and were not disappointed, it's a lovely wee place - there was one waitress working who was really nice and friendly - she seemed to be taking orders, serving food, taking payment just herself however this didn't affect the service and her kind manner didn't go unnoticed. We all had a filled hot roll and my son had a meringue which was very tasty, the rolls were lovely too and all for a very reasonable price.I'd definitely recommend eating here and if we are in the area we would return again.

The Restaurant / Tea Room has a beautiful outlook over the water to Rothesay. On a nice day there a few tables outside. Inside it is bright and airy perhaps the sittings a bit basic. It is basically a snack menu... Coffee and cake .soup/sandwiches etc some bar meals. It is not licenced. At weekends there is a meal service on Friday evening and a lunch Sunday afternoon. The quality of food is excellent and the prices reasonable. Parking unlike Largs is not a problem. Service is on the slow side but this due to only cooked to order so worth the wait. Certainly worth a visit a pleasant change from the normal snack restaurant.

We stumbled upon this gem of a restaurant while out walking and what a pleasant surprise it turned out to be. The staff were welcoming and showed us to a table overlooking the water - what a gorgeous view. The menu, while not extensive, is more than adequate for lunch and we happily settled for homemade soup and sandwich which at 3.75 is a great deal. There is also a great range of home baked goods and a daily special on the board. I believe the restaurant is also open at the weekend for evening meals. We will happily return when ever we can. Happy to recommend.

A sunny bank holiday meant Largs was full to capacity, so we drove on to Skelmorlie and stopped at the Clyde Tearoom for drinks and ice cream. I was sorry we'd had lunch, as the cakes on display looked lovely. It was so nice to be served by a delightful waitress and enjoy the gorgeous view. This will definitely be our preferred stop when in the area. I understand there's carvery lunch on Sunday, and dinner on a Friday.

This is how the catering trade should be reflected in eating houses in Scotland. Service above normal,quality of food well above average and prices superb. I believe it is part of a residential complex. Residents must be well pleased with their restaurant on their doorstep

We were welcomed as we stepped in and shown to our choice of table with a lovely view of The RiverClyde. Place was spotless and warm. Excellent menu choices and everything freshly made and in good quantity. My Cappucino was above average and trust me you must have the home made date and banana loaf, made by Angela and served by her. We were heading for Largs but so glad we stopped here, plenty of free parking, staff who are so helpful and pleasant and the whole place so clean and welcoming. Do not drive past it if you like the best.small complaint, eggs not free range.

Well worth a visit for an afternoon tea of delicious home baking. Definitely returning now we have found this little gem, magnificent views over the Clyde. Friendly staff. No need to go to Largs for that special tea, it's all here, with easy parking.

Well we went in on the off chance as we were hungry. Well what a surprise great value for money and excellent food .As it was a lovely day we sat outside it was fabulous great views and good food can't be bad .

Delicious home baking, unobstructed panoramic views over the Clyde, garden tables, unlimited parking (in short supply up and down the North Ayrshire coast,- Largs is no longer an easy place in which to park,) and friendly staff who go out of their way to respond to individual requests in a leisurely and relaxed environment,- why look anywhere else for a daytime meal?--or dinner on a Friday night. As we have a flat close by, we can just walk along, as do those living in the various properties nearby, and of course inhabitants of Strathclyde House itself. The only other restaurant in Skelmorlie is The Seaview Café, which while having a varied menu, can be busy with patrons coming and going with the ferries, - there is very limited parking, and the view restricted.

We stopped at lunchtime. Had great homemade lentil soup with homemade bread, followed by coffee and the most fabulous fruit loaf also homemade. The service was excellent and very friendly and all for the 10.50 GBP. Would heartily recommend. It's just a bit further on from Large.

We had an excellent meal this evening at The Clyde Tearoom in Skelmorlie. They are opening on a Friday evening offering meals - 3 courses for under £13.00 and as they don't have a license you are allowed to bring your own bottle of wine. Really beautiful setting both inside and out and excellent service - we will go back for more. Highly recommended.

This cafe is in a fabulous setting with views over the Clyde towards Bute. The staff are friendly and welcoming. We had homemade soup and crusty bread followed by some beautiful home baked cakes.I would definitely visit again and recommend to anyone looking for quality food at reasonable prices.

If you're looking for a cosy atmosphere, delicious light lunches and amazing homebaked cakes, check this place out! Come sunshine or rain, the panoramic views of the River Clyde through all the doors and windows surrounding the tearoom are beautiful and stunning, and when the sun's out, so are the tables and chairs! The staff are extremely accommodating, willing to suit any family needs, half portions or menu variations. There's excellent parking facilities on both sides of the café, and babychanging facilities inside, and the staff are always happy to provide bowls of water for any canine friends. Right now, the chef is creating a line of gluten-free baking, including gooey chocolate brownies and meringues, and is hopping to expand this in the future.
