I have been visiting Buzzworks restaurants for many years and over the past couple of years I have noticed a significant decline in their food. The menus are uninspiring and when the dishes appear the presentation, quality and taste is also uninspiring. I feel that a large company of this status should be working hard to produce dishes that reflect the amazing local ingredients that Scotland has on offer. Lockdown offered a time for the team of chefs to invent new and exciting dishes - surely top quality chefs don’t train to spend their time making lasagna, macaroni, fajitas, fish and chips and chilli. Give the people of Ayrshire a reason to want to visit these restaurants rather than just to see the nice decor. So much potential but seriously lacking in the most important area - the food. Today I visited the Cornerhouse and ordered prawn cocktail and turkey from the special Christmas menu. One lettuce leaf, four prawns in a tasteless sauce and two small pieces of stale bread made up the prawn cocktail. The turkey consisted of two slices of very chewy meat with a fatty strip attached to each, half an over cooked carrot and parsnip, mash, one roast potato, one chipolata, stuffing and a small amount of gravy. There were no sprouts or cranberry sauce. I feel sad having to write this as I know how horrible 2020 has been and businesses in the hospitality industry have been seriously affected. However, this is a sizeable company with what appears like money to invest on the decor on restaurants, so it would be good if they could invest some of the money into great quality chefs and cuisine offered to the people of Ayrshire and beyond.

We booked online, a family of 4 - 2 adults, 2 kids (just about!), it was simple and the confirmation was prompt. The seating was spread out, we had a great spot beside the fire place. The service was friendly and professional, the Manager, Stewart, and his team doing an excellent job. Our booking was at 1600, and due to COVID restrictions we needed be out by 1800, but at no point did we feel rushed. The food was fantastic, and the portions generous. We can’t wait to return. There was a minor mix up with out bill, but this was resolved without an issue. Well done Cornerhouse.

Went in for dinner with a friend ! Booked table for 6pm wasn’t ready on arrival ! Waited 15 mins for table ! Staff appeared to b agreeing to social distancing and hand hygiene ! Menu extensive not much for veggies like me ! Had vegan chillie which was just vegetables in tomato sauce nothing special ! Took ages to take desert order ! On whole staff friendly enough ! But service poor and food not that interesting ! Buzzworks certainly have better restaurants than this one x

I agree with a prior reviewer in that if you're looking for something beyond fast food but not quite fine dining, this place fits the bill. With my heritage, I hate to say this, but Scotland doesn't always come up to scratch; it can be difficult to find a resturant to your liking. They're making a job of it here though, friendly welcoming staff, fair choice on the menu which I think could be expanded a bit re variety. Food of good quality and and value. Could have the potential for being noisy with the bar area adjoining and maybe not to everyones liking.

Firstly I must say that I have visited here a few times lately and enjoyed the crepe with peppers in a cheese and chilli sauce. I was there for lunch a few days ago in a party of 7. There were several different Xmas menus which confused me at first but then I realised that they all had the same vegetarian choice. I had for starter the rice cake which was tasteless except for the tomato veloute which was lovely. There was pumpkin gnocchi which sounded weird - trying too hard- just offer classic potato gnocchi. I took the only other vegetarian main which was a mushroom, veg +borlotti bean Wellington. It came on a tiny amount of potato puree which was so runny I could hardly pick it up with a fork. Side vegetables were 1/4 of a roasted onion and 4 roasted cherry tomatoes. Meanwhile my friends were tucking in to meat / fish with carrots, lovely mashed potatoes, roast potatoes and asparagus. Why give the vegetarian the smallest portion of the most boring vegetables? There was a strange flavour in the Wellington which I couldn't identify but didn't like but this dish could have been made far more enjoyable if the accompanying vegetables had been enjoyable.

Our choir Christmas night out tonight at the Corner House was first class. We pre-ordered our food because we knew it would be busy.

Definitely worth a visit. Very nice restaurant, staff is very polite and will look after you. We ordered a cocktails which were superb! For starters we had scallops and vegan nachos. Both of those dishes were absolutely incredible. Scallops were possibly the best ones we had in a long time! Very nicely cooked. For mains we had lasagna and a house burger. We were satisfied with our dishes. However, lasagna was a little too oily. At some point all I was eating was oil with a lasagna flavour. Apart from that, it was nice. You could definitely taste different ingredients yet it was very smooth at the same time. We have also enjoyed our puddings, we had chocolate fudge cake and a sticky toffee pudding. Food was affordable, varied between £10-£14 per meal. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very calm, mellow and rustic.

I recently dined for lunch and I wasn't impressed with the food nor staff. It's the usual Buzzworks style over substance. The staff member I dealt with took exception to my request to move table due to the heat, even although it wasn't busy and there were other tables available he made it very obvious he was put out by my request. The food was OK at best, but given my overall experience of Buzzworks I wasn't expecting much anyway. Would neither recommend nor return.

In Kilwinning, restaurants close early. 9 PM and they stop. However, they agreed to serve us later, we were a party of 12. Food was great and very affordable in regard to the quality. I took a Scottish filet with Arran cheese sauce. The meat was so tender that I could have eaten it rarer than rare. A place to recommend without hesitation.

Went for dinner with friends, and couldn’t believe how empty it was. Normally no matter when we booked, it was busy. We were aware that the menu had changed, and with that, so had the prices. Fillet steak almost £30? My starter of scallops and black pudding was nice, although have never had scallops so small, anywhere. Service was chaotic, so when main courses eventually came, some were good, others awful. I’ve never had that at the Cornerhouse before, and we’re regular customers, but I’m sorry, it will take me a long time before I’m back.

A well laid out spacious restaurant with tables of all sizes we had a booth which was very comfortable and quiet. There is a bar connected to but separate from the actual restaurant. Coat hangers about the place which is good as quite a few don’t have any and you rely on the back of your chair. Good menu with good choices and good prices, friendly staff who know just when to come over and chat or ask about your meal, not intrusive at all. Lauren looked after us very well, she was nice and friendly letting us know her favourites and recommending dishes, made sure we were well fed and watered. I tried the brisket burger with cheese topping, very nice but not a burger in the sense of a burger, it was in a burger bun but that’s where the similarity stops. Strands of brisket like pulled pork in a roll and it was very nice indeed, comes with Cajun chips which were spicy and nice. The fish finger sandwich and the steak pie was also a hit with the rest of the family. It was busy and would suggest always book ahead, we booked for 1630 and as we ordered before 1800 we got 40% off the food bill, they always seem to have some great offers. Plenty of car-parking nearby and easy access from the street for people using wheelchairs or have difficulty walking. Will certainly be going again.

The venue was well appointed and the service very good. The wine very good. However the food, although of high quality ingredients was not so appetising because it was not warm enough. Plates were scalding but the food at all levels on the plate was lukewarm. This was disappointing because all of the ingredients of an excellent meal were there. The battered ingredients in the starter were soggy. Everything else was of excellent quality. Staff continually asked if everything was OK. however I felt it would have spoiled any enjoyment I had discussing this with them during the meal.

Have been here 3 times now and could not rate it any higher. Food is amazing, always cooked to a professional standard. The staff are extremely friendly. If you smoke? No problem. This place offers a beer garden type place where you are still in the facility, but outside for smokers. The bathrooms are decorated to a high standard, in fact the whole place is. 10/10 to the architect/interior designer. Also in Scotland we have a law in relation to alcohol for 16 year olds. For someone under 18 to drink alcohol in licensed premises is illegal, except where the child is 16 or 17 years old and accompanied by an adult. In this case it is legal for them to drink, beer, wine and cider with a table meal. They are still not allowed to buy it and spirits is not allowed at all. This is solely at the managers discretion. Well how great my 17 year old felt when they do provide this service. She sipped at her drink of cider, totally taking in the moment as she approaches adulthood legally savouring every second. We had a great meal, and a great night out. I cannot thank this place enough for the wonderful service they provide. Suggest that you please do low income family nights as this will greatly boost the local economy. If we could have a meal for £5 per person, child or adult then this would give struggling low income families a great advantage, and also great food. How many more will you attract if you do this? Loads, because I will advertise it, for free :D

Evening meal last week was poorest ever, we chose from the main menu and the sea bass was one small fillet served on a salad of leaves and pink grapefruit. I'm not a big eater but it was ridiculous for the price! My starter was good and both courses that hubby had were fine not sure what was going on ....shortage of fish? Also worth a mention that the welcome and service were excellent (Kenny and a new young waitress I think) and I should have said something about my food.

Had heard great things about the corner house, having known it previously as the old Stag & Hound. On a visit from Australia, we had a family dinner for 8 on Xmas Eve. It was very busy and very loud inside, and the music added to the pandemonium. Food wise, we were disappointed. Steaks were overcooked and frankly gristly, one order of the curry was presented cold and was returned slightly warmer, albeit with a pakora to compensate. Overall, the atmosphere spoiled what was an average meal.

It looked like a bag of supermarket salad with a few pomegranate seeds through it. On top was a tiny overdone piece of fish. It was the worst meal I've ever had served up at a restaurant.

Menus clear. Food very good & well presented. I had the steamed mussels followed by the rib eye and the salted caramel tart...totally stuffed. Not one complaint which is not like me, I love cooking and can be a bit picky. Reasonably priced and the kids menu is excellent...you know what they're like, sometimes just a sandwich would suit them, this place caters very well for them. Oh, and the toilets are gorgeous.

Good tasting food and nice decor. Menu isn’t too big so makes choosing easier. Feels very classy and sophisticated. Desert was the best part.

We booked the private dining for our family event. We had brilliant service from the moment we entered until we left. The food was great value and very tasty. Everyone enjoyed their courses and there was a great selection. The atmosphere in The Corner House is warm and friendly and very personal. The cocktails are very tasty.

Thank you for a lovely evening, food was delicious and the service was excellent very attentive nothing was a hassle. The manager attended our table several times to check on us which was great to see someone very hands on who also spoke highly of his staff on shift and took time to chat to us. Amazing service highly recommend. Well done to all of your team you delivered exceptional dining standards to be proud of

What an excellent experience as soon as we arrived, the staff are super attentive and made the entire night special for my wife and all the family/friends. We have several options but the King Prawn Pil Pil was cooked well and the spicy sauce was wonderful, house soup is always excellent and the grilled haloumi was nicely presented and a lovely char.

I recently visited the Corner House as part of a group of 12 and we had the set menu dinner which was priced at £15.95 for 3 courses. There were 2 vegetarians in our group including myself. There were no vegetarian options for a starter as the soup of the day was beef along with pakora and another meat option. When we enquired about a vegetarian option for a starter we were presented with a different vegetarian menu. There were options but with a catch - the food was not at the set menu price and we would have to pay in full for a vegetarian starter and main along with a dessert. We weren't prepared to pay more than the other party members due to our dietary requirement, so opted to stick with the the set menu without having a starter. We had macaroni for a main and a chocolate brownie for a dessert.

Love going here. I stay locally and the place is just great. Couldn't meet a better bunch of friendly staff. I've had Xmas dinner here and what an amazing time I had with my family. I think it should have been called the Cosy corner. I have never known either in all my time in the place for anything to be stolen. Anything left behind always gets handed into staff. Just one of they things that make yous you feel extra secure. Such a great vibe about the place. My favourite bar staff is Tam, Seth and Dillion. Great guys. Definitely make the bar. Tam makes the best cocktails in the place always very welcoming towards you. Definitely not a place to be missed when your passing through kilwinning for a meal or even a wee drink at the bar :)

Me, my husband and mother in law recently visited for the first time after hearing many positive comments about the place. The restaurant itself is lovely.. it has a great atmosphere and the staff are very friendly. The food is amazing. I had the buttermilk chicken which I think is the best chicken I have ever tasted!!! The prices are very good also, we were amazed how cheap the bill was. We will definitely return.

4 for lunch and they don’t do salads! So became 3 starters where ok but uninspired 2 of us had burgers and they where good but the chips where tasteless. Wee Mess for suite was good looking but no wow taste it was chopped up melange with fruit and cream.2 had apple crumble 1 had cold custard and one had microwave lava...but the actual crumble was cold and bland so both where left. Mentioned all of the above but was met with disinterest but they was still asked how was the meal? It’s a nice place and local the younger server was pleasant and they are dog friendly with water for the dog but the whole visit felt like the staff had no interest apart from pleasantries and the food looked good but as above was bland, tasteless and incorrectly cooked-prepared...and as we where the only customers it’s not that they where too busy to care....Had some good meals in The Brae but this was definitely not one of them... Won’t be recommending them

Was down to ardrossan visiting family with the kids, thought I would pop down to the plaza for some tea since I haven't been in a few year got two fish and chips and couple bag of chips for the kids. The fish was raw and chips were stale. Fish was near enough flapping about in the papers. Felt that bad I had to release it to ardrossan harbour! AND TO MAKE THINGS WORST THE SEAGULLS GOT IT BEFORE MAKING IT TO THE SEA #ANGRYFACE #PLAZAISSTINKING #HATESEAGULLS #CRYINGKIDS THANKS PLAZA KIDS CRYING NOW!!!!
