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

Pup nothing spectacular staff nice

So the Rad group have refurbished the old Costley Hotel and basically that means all soft furnishings have been with plastic greenery. Tablecloths are no more and the whole interior has lost its previous charm. Was so disappointed visiting for the first time after a while particularly as it was for my birthday. We were in a constant on and off draft from the kitchen- so freezing most of evening till we moved to the bar area to finish our drinks. My husband ordered the roast beef dinner which arrived without the advertised Yorkshire pudding. He returned it so I ended up eating alone while he waited for his to return. Apologies from the chef but we noticed other plates coming out without yorkshires! No one else seemed to have noticed! Sorry Rad group but you’ll need to improve the ambience to tempt us back. A real shame as it’s walkable for us.

The sandwich was simple but nice enough. Tasty cheese and ham. The macaroni was awful. Cold sludge made from cheap ingredients. Possibly the worst I've had. The place itself is fine but they really need to review their catering. It could be so much better

Usually eat here and never had an issue. Today we called and waiting 15 minutes and not served. Approached the counter and older lady said it was table service and take a seat. (We knew this but had waited). Sat back down and waited nearly another 15 minutes and nobody took our order. We were walked past several times by staff and ignored. Left and went elsewhere. Really disappointed at being made to feel so embarrassed after others noticed clearly and those arriving after us were served. Will sadly not return as left to feel like we were deliberately being ignored. Completely embarrassing experience.

Fantastic traditional food with staff who enjoyed engaging with the customers . Excellent dining experience.. 10/10

Disappointed is an understatement. Booked a late afternoon table for two expecting it to be similar in standard to the Dormy restaurant at Gleneagles, sadly it did not deliver. Impressive looking from outside, was greeted at front door and then directed upstairs. Stood about at an empty reception desk, eventually walked into bar area to find a staff member. Restaurant was fairly quiet, the table had superb views over the coast. My partner ordered the cottage pie, I ordered an egg sandwiches and a beetroot, goats cheese salad, plus drinks. Food arrived, asked if we would like same drinks again 'yes please' (a white wine and a coke zero), to be given a red wine and a reg coke (which as Type1 Diabetic, I thankfully spotted). The cottage pie tasted like microwave mash that had been put under the grill, with meat that tasted like it had been reheated, only ate half, complained when plates cleared 'oh ok', nothing more was said. Asked for the bill, then asked again 10 minutes later... waited 5 minutes for payment to be taken.... ended up going to bar (which had been sitting with dirty glasses for the entirety of my meal), bill in hand asking to pay (and I genuinely think the staff wouldn't have cared if I'd just walked out). Had high expectations, and maybe the main hotel is better, but this was a truly disappointing experience.

Ate at this restaurant on a quite Friday afternoon with colleagues from work. Restaurant was lovely with great views of the golf course. Food was really nice and very good portions but maybe a little expensive for myself. Waiting staff were very poor… they didn’t know about gluten free food or drinks, they dropped the onion rings on the table and totally forgot one of the orders which we they had come back and take after we highlighted it. Staff let the place down.

I loved this fish and chip shop, it is the best one I have been to. The staff were very friendly and didn’t take too long to serve me. I will definitely be coming back soon.

I do not recommend. I ordered a wrap yesterday. I can't eat spicy food! I said three times that I would like it not spicy! if it wasn't spicy they could say. The place is clean, the service is very nice but unfortunately… I got it so spicy that the whole thing went in the trash

Sad to hear what was simply the best bakers in the whole world, never mind the uk has closed its doors for the last time. They had the most amazing selection of original recipe cakes and biscuits which will now be lost forever. It was in a class above all others !

What a wonderful shop and cafe the hub of the local community. The manger Alex and Young worker Becca are fabulous such excellent customer service. I'm currently walking the entire UK coast path solo for the RNLI with my Big agnes tent Aggie since July 4th over 7,600 walked and I am staying at a campsite nearby yo rest a sore ankle. Wow I arrived and was treated like a local welcomed in offered coffee and cake. The atmosphere was heartwarming everyone happy picking up provisions hot food or stopping by for a chat. A lost dog was found and kept amd cuddled by a staff member till the happy owner arrived to claim his doggy ❤️ fully recommend this wonderful place. Thank yoy manager Alex 5 star .

Do yourself a favour and order the Scottish oak smoked salmon sandwich with lemon mayonnaise, side salad and crisps. Quality!

Stopped in Maybole for a bite to eat on our way to our lodge and found this charming café. Friendly attentive staff and lovely fresh homemade food. Tomato & red pepper soup and toasty were delicious. Cheese burger, chips and salad was yummy! Wee gem!

Food was delicious and Michaels little message on the bag brightened my day too.

Breast chicken curry wasn’t a breast and certainly was not curry sauce also spare ribs out of 7 there was only 2 that had meat on them rest just bone and jelly would not go back
