The best restaurants in Maybole, North Carrick and Coylton South Ayrshire South West Scotland

Stumbled across lovely Dunure while camping in Ayr and popped in here to grab a coffee and a sandwich. We all absolutely loved it - great coffee, really good food and proper home made chips. All the staff were friendly and smiley, we felt really relaxed and left happy and well fed.

We stopped by for a coffee after a walk and it was really nice. Loved the decor, friendly service, and good coffee. We also got cake too, and it was nice to see vegan options.

Love old diners and spotted this a while ago on my trips down the Ayrshire coast. Birthday day made the excuse to jump in for a get away from the miserable weather pit stop and was treated to a decent all day breakfast, square, link, bacon, black pudding, tattie scone, mushrooms, tomatoes, fried egg and toast with refill coffee, the missus topped hers off wi a caramel cup of suitably gooeyness from Sutherlands cakes.

Very enjoyable and great food. Hosts were friendly and shared stories about the local culture. Recommend!

First timers , absolutely delicious 😋 will definitely be back 😍

Great food, perfect location, not over priced, value for money.

Food was a hour after time given. Food was watery and not good at all

We came here to celebrate my dad’s life. The two bar staff were so fantastic, we were a group of 25 family and all received wonderful service from the staff at the bar. Service was quick and our cocktails were so delicious, it was a shame that the Manager/owner was quite stressed and rude. We were told that we were in the way and that cocktails were cancelled because they were too busy. There were tables reserved inside for only people who were eating, these tables remained unoccupied all afternoon. We would have eaten there however the Manager/owner was not very welcoming which is a shame. Big shout out to the bar staff well done and thank you for making us welcome. I think the owner should be a lot more welcoming and friendly it would have made such a difference.

The food was lovely, couldn’t fault it! The waiting staff really let the restaurant down, they are not interested in customer service. We had one drink all evening, staff not around to offer more drinks. A smile on any one of them wouldn’t hurt.

We were there for a wedding. We did 2 overnights , we stayed in Annex 2 as did other members of the wedding party with the majority in Annex 3 . All rooms are of a very good standard , clean, warm and a good size. The Hotel itself is " old school " , carpet and wood panels , all in good repair. The Wedding Service was carried out in the Dining / Ballroom it was decorated with taste. The weather allowed the photos to be taken outside , with drinks and canapes served by staff. All in all...an excellent venue for a wedding.

Lovely tea room , all day breakfast 🙂

Outstanding! Top-notch food, drink and service. The Kirkmichael Arms is a treasure of a pub ticking all the boxes when it comes to a cosy local.

The Coylton Arms is turning into a real favourite of ours. We’ve eaten here quite a few times this year, which included twice in December. It offers an extensive menu to choose from, plus the staff that serve you are always really pleasant and not afraid to offer their opinion on the food you fancy. Prices are very reasonable considering the quality of the food and the restaurant is really nice inside. There is also an adjoining bar if you fancy a wee pre-meal drink. A family run business, well worth a visit 👍

I drive down from Glasgow fairly frequently and I’m grateful I don’t stay any closer as my waistline would be expanding even more rapidly. I love bringing new people with me to introduce them. Not that I need an excuse to visit. Saw the milk vending machines online just after the first lockdown for Covid and have been coming ever since. I always get macaroni cheese - it’s the best. And a big pint glass of milk. Can’t visit a coo farm without getting milk IMO. Brought a friends child with me once - he thought when I said fresh from the cow - they milked one straight into the glass 😂😂😂. When he was informed otherwise he got some and said it was the best milk he’d ever tasted. Never had a complaint about the food or the service and my dining companions have tried various things from the menu with no complaints either. Always have to take cakes to go (along with my milk) as there’s never enough space after lunch has been stuffed in.

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.
