One off the best places I have had a meal staff excellent customer service second to none friendly and always willing to go that further for you from start to finish 👍
My wee girl loves this place... thought I would treat her tonight but when I turned up it was closed and can't get any response when calling :( where did you go steakhouse?
This was a chipper we would never go by when we sailed into Girvan as it was so good. We were going through there on Sunday afternoon by road and decided to get our supper and eat it further up the road to our destination. I bought 2 fish suppers and when we opened them (the 2 bits of fish were burnt and you could hardly make out the fish from the batter and the chips were not cooked long enough) . They were unedible. If I was passing through there again and went in I would hope the quality of their product was vastly improved.
Nipped in for breakfast, unplanned and just passing. Really friendly, brilliant service and top quality fresh food. Crispy bacon Roll, Sourdough toast, and Eggs Benedict .. top notch with quality pot of loose leaf tea. Too full to sample the cakes on offer, but will be back for sure in the future. Thanks
When we arrived seated no problem. Whilst waiting to order 4 other tables that came in after us were served first. I had to ask eventually to place our order. We were then served lattes barely hot. And one of the orderd were wrong but we waited that long just ate it. Only good thing we got to take our dog in. Tbh though I think it got to busy after we arrived for the young guy to cope on his own

Hate to say it but won’t be back. This has been my regular chip shop for 8 years. The chippy is busy which is great for the owners but the service has just not been the same the last few times & after tonight we definitely won’t return.
Standard practice in a chip ship is order your food & then when it’s packaged your asked for salt vinegar etc, always been this way in Alfie’s too.
The place is too busy so the staff are asking when you order if you want salt & vinegar then you stand waiting. It’s then handed to you in a bag.
Everyone has different tastes or maybe requires extra salt/vinegar you don’t get a chance to see your food as it’s packed it’s just thrown together however & handed to you. I actually fancied sauce whilst I was waiting & again it’s handed in a bag wrapped you don’t get the chance to even ask to add a pickle. It should be packaged in front of you so you have the chance to ask for condiments to your preference so you can add accordingly.
People will say this is a ridiculous comment the owners won’t care as the shop is busy but it’s the difference in enjoying your meal or not enjoying it. Half the chips & the fish I ordered were tasteless it was hardly salted & hardly any vinegar. You should be asked as it’s being wrapped. Just trying to save time when you order & rush customers out the door. Paying full price for a backwards service.
I’ve just moved back to Hamilton & even travelled from Motherwell for the last 4 years to use Alfie’s but won’t be back.
We were recommended to try the Silver Spoon cafe by friends. We were not disappointed. Warm welcome, varied choices of cakes. Salted Caramel sponge was huge, so light and tasty. Rocky Road was also good. All reasonably priced.
