The best restaurants in North Ayrshire South West Scotland

Arran has this delightful Indian take away in Lamlash. I don’t think there are any others on the island. We are from the Midlands and have been visiting Arran for 39 years. We love pizza and Indian food. There’s plenty of pizza now on the island but that’s not for this review!! We found Indian Gardens food to be delicious and we thoroughly recommend. It is more than you’d pay on the mainland. YES. But please folks.... if you know Arran and love Arran then of course it’s more expensive. It’s blooming good food so order your take always and enjoy!

My partner and I stopped here for lunch with our 2 year old son today. My partner joined the queue to place our order while I took our little boy to find a seat as we had been on our feet all morning and he was getting tired, hungry and a little grumpy. A woman stopped us with a shout across the cafe and told us we were not able to take a seat until we had been served at the counter. I explained that my partner was waiting in the queue to place our order while we selected a table. This was not sufficient to allow us a seat however. The red haired waitress who repeatedly called me darling while carrying on a public argument with me was determined that my tired little boy be denied a seat while we waited for lunch. I thought this was an unusual way to treat customers but when we were eventually allowed to sit down, I overheard the same woman subject two other customers to similar treatment so I assume this is standard procedure in this cafe. We will not be back.

Usually go in here for one drink and move on . Spent 6hrs in here , had great day .

First time had a delivery from here, meal was cold, ordered salad with kebab lettuce& bit of onion😒wont be ordering again

Pub is very unloved. Amazing views, but surroundings a bit shabby. Our fish and chips were good but came with coleslaw rather than the promised peas. Very noisy drunk table hogging the terrace which I suspect is a regular occurrence.

Greay bar great custemers pool table good and live music on sundays good views good beer bar staff on the ball.love kildonan bar and there punters geo 1 and 2 and ernest and the rest

Hands down the best chinese in Irvine, everything is always fresh.

This popular restuarant/wedding venue has suddenly closed down without notice leaving many young couples and others searching for new venues at very short notice.

Well done to them, nice to see owners proud of the chippie and determined to make good meals for the village

The onion Bhaji was soggy and fell apart when you picked it up - we ordered Popadoms with spiced onions but they didn’t pack the spiced onions and we were too far away to return. The curries we had were ok but lacked any flavour punch and this place only takes cash

gen the best chinese i’ve ever had, also extremely quick friendly service :)
