The best restaurants in Ayr East South Ayrshire South West Scotland

Ordered a gourmet hotdog for lunch today and it was absolutely delicious! The side fries, slaw and panko breaded onion rings were a tasty addition also. My Latte was perfect with the taste and temperature. On leaving, I treated myself to a strawberry tart and Wow! The best strawberry tart i have ever had! not too sickly or heavy, strawberries really juice, pastry texture just right with its crunch and the sauce was just sooo yum! The restaurant was beautiful, very cosy and relaxing to sit in. Service very friendly. All in all, VERY impressed, can't wait to return to try more! Highly reccomend, and would suggest booking as folk could only get a table if they had a reservation. Small inside but busy!

Beautiful location set near the river Ayr in Auchincriuve Estate. Fresh produce grown 20 metres from the kitchen! Home made soup, sandwiches, baking, daily specials,seasonal menus...a real gem for taking family and friends......the staff are lovely.

AMAZING food and outstanding service at The Harbour! Fish Finger Butty and BLT were absolutely gorgeous 😍 Staff were welcoming, helpful and friendly without being intrusive. I'm in a wheelchair and they were so accommodating: I often feel an inconvenience to small independants but not so here! Oh, and it's dog friendly too 🐕

What an amazing find, they make all their own food including proper sourdough bakery goods and kombucha, perfect if you're trying to increase your microbiome or following ZOE. And, of course, all their food is delicious and it was the best coffee I've had in Ayr.

Had a lovey meal here, the staff were fantastic too, I had steak, very nice, huge serving came with chips, onion rings, chicken wings and slaw. My husband had the Cajun Chicken ; scoffed the lot, said it was delicious. on another occasion we had the burgers which a absolutely delicious. Great sports bar/ restaurant but also cosy nooks to sit in if it’s a bit of privacy you prefer. Well worth a visit or 3. Great Staff and delicious food. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

We had seen this place advertised everywhere and heard them on a few radio stations too, as they are selling deep fried creme eggs and we had always wanted to try them so we popped in and werent disappointed.. The prices are very reasonable compared to other chip shops in the area and they have a few unusual things in the menu like deep fried pickled onions, deep fried lorne slice sausage and any deep fried sweets you want. We ordered chip rolls and some deep fried creme eggs and were pleasantly surprised. They were very tasty and the chips were lovely and crispy, just how I like them. We will definitely be back!

The staff are very friendly and my food was made very fast and fresh. I had a chicken donner hoagie and it was very nice with garlic and kebab sauce on it.

What a wonderful plaice! We stopped with tired, hungry kids after getting off ferry. Fantastic, polite, friendly staff, amazing pizzas. Kids loved it. I would defo recommend AJ’s place 😍. Vx

Phoned in order, told 30 mins it would take. 45 mins later still waiting. (When it did eventually arrive it was incorrect). All those who just popped in were served first. 2 others has been waiting over an hour! Another had his order ‘forgotten’ so they quickly cooked it again. Felt sorry for the servers who were efficient and polite and doing their best to cover for the poor kitchen service.

The food is great and everyone is fantastic apart from the short young rude girl on the til 😂😂

Great little tea room in Rozelle park. Once again I opted for the club sandwich which was excellent. I also added the soup as it was one of my favourite ones. Had a slice of cake and a coffee. All very good and would highly recommend this tea room.

Great coffee, care and attention given to the coffees, comes with a glass of water. Very nice pleasant staff. You order and pay at the counter, then your order is brought to your table. Dog friendly. Well worth a visit.

On business trip,not holiday and staying nearby. Our hostess told us of this place and gave it a try. Pretty extensive menu of burgers,fish,chicken and chips. They also do a selection of pizzas too. They also do a haggis supper. I had that and my wife the fish and chips. Both were really big portions. Batter was really light and crispy. Really tasty. If we are ever in the area again we’d make a point of driving back to Maybole to come back to this shop.

We popped in here for some desserts as we seen they had a special offer on. The service wasn't the best as they kept asking us repeatedly what we had ordered and put it through the till wrong. After a long wait we finally got everything we had ordered, the churros were delicious and great portion sizes for the price but the ice cream was rather flavourless, very milky with no sugar, wouldn't recommend the ice cream unless you like plain milky taste.

The ordering process is simple and efficient. You can either call ahead or place your order in person. The staff is always prompt and ensures your food is ready in no time. Overall, Oriental Kitchen Chinese Takeaway is a hidden gem that deserves all the praise. The combination of delicious food, friendly service, and great value for money makes it a go-to spot for Chinese cuisine lovers in the area. I guarantee you won't be disappointed! So, next time you're craving some authentic Chinese flavors, give Oriental Kitchen a try. Trust me, you'll be hooked from the very first bite! 🥡🥢
