The best restaurants in Troon South Ayrshire South West Scotland

Fantastic decor, friendly and helpful staff. On the pricey side but for a weekend away, perfect

We live between Deeside and Dorset and rarely in Ayrshire but down for wedding and decided to go to Scott’s as knew the owners through business over 20 years ago when they just had a couple of places & heard a lot about their massive success . Honestly , we couldn’t fault it and … we eat out a lot . From a genuinely lovely welcome from Beth to excellent service from all the staff ( Isabelle was particularly charming & efficient ) - wonderful choice of menu , terrific cuisine and good value for money …. With a charming view . Some people look to find fault wherever they go but , we genuinely found Scott’s faultless ( inc toilets , decor etc etc ) . Absolutely SUPERB - 10/10- well be back and Soon 🥂

Absolutely scrumptious traybakes and hot chocolate (with the works).. our first visit here but certainly won't be our last.. p.s thanks for the recipe 😋

Specifically returned here for a 2nd visit as the 1st visit had been so good! We found this place by accident around 3 weeks ago & were pleasantly surprised. The food was fantastic and the coffee is the best we've found in Ayrshire! And all very reasonably priced! Give it a go. I guarantee you won't be disappointed!

The fish and chips are fine maybe just don't order anything else

We needed over 50 fish suppers on the beach last night for my son's memorial. Monica and Ricardo went out of their way to ensure it was fantastic, hot & tasty as ever. We cannot thank them enough ❤️

stumbled upon here on a sunny Sunday. good ambience, friendly staff, good food and great coffee. oh, and the best dogs in the whole world.....

First time ,I expected better service, a restaurant in a hotel of this size needs more cleanliness and attention, the food was reasonable, I ordered a cappuccino and it was served to me without milk or cream, thanks only to the Filipino workers, they were very cooperative

The Ice Cream Factory is superb for both walk in Ice Cream and take away tubs. Excellent ice cream and great service. Good value for money too.

lovely food, stake bakes are banging, sausage rolls are lush and the coffees where good. very good :)

Just a wee day out, ended up in Troon looking for somewhere to eat, and what a find Tempura was. Can’t fault the food or service at all, 10 out of 10, 5 stars, however you rate it, top marks.

If sitting on a tatty faux-leather banquette, blistering up like a bad pluke, is your idea of quality then this is your place. The food is not any better. Bacalao came in a cold dish quickly making the chorizo and black pudding taste like your chewing fat. The menu reads great and you think you’re in for a treat then, when the food comes, it is so disappointing. Drinks service was forgotten – doesn’t make for exciting times, especially with only four tables in the place! It felt like there was more atmosphere in space. When the waitress ladled Troon’s least exciting Patatas Bravas onto the table and spilled oil over one of the diners first-time-worn blouse, well, this doesn’t lend itself to a good day either, especially when that person is your wife... Kudos to the poor girl, she did make a genuine and heartfelt apology and took details for the manager to contact us which was re-assuring. That there was no call from the manager is, given the day’s experiences, not surprising but entirely expected from an establishment that doesn’t have working locks on the toilet doors. Places like this chase people away to the city instead of highlighting the offerings a small coastal town like Troon can offer. I suppose they’re holding out for the cashflow increase during the Open in 2024, well my advice if you’re one of these visitors is quite simple - look elsewhere. If a restaurant doesn’t care to spend money on the basics such as seating and toilet door locks why would you want to spend your money with them? I can’t think of one reason to go back. Not one.

Amazing customer service and great staff. Amazing food, great prices.

The hotel is very dingy but its extremely old so maybe thats why it hasnt been done up, must be the style their after. The bar staff were quite incompetent. One forgot to give me my change and then later on at night the other barman gave me the wrong can - twice. The breakfast was good and the woman (kirsty i think) was spot on.

Absolutely disgusting food couldn't eat anything just got salt and chilli ribs which were the worst I've ever tasted 🤮 and chicken fried rice! The rice was dark brown with all the rancid grease it was cooked in ! I just hope I haven't got food poisoning from what I tasted 🤮
