The best restaurants in South Ayrshire South West Scotland

A must visit for friendly staff and great food . One of the best places for baked potatoes !! 😀

We ate here on our second evening in Ayr following a recommendation by the owner of the guest house where we were staying. Seating is very comfortable and the restaurant is quite spacious. There’s a full menu of primarily Italian dishes with a good selection of pasta dishes and pizzas. The lasagne and pasta carbonara were very tasty along with a risotto dish. Service was very good…friendly and professional and despite being busy, staff were very observant. There’s a very large bar serving a particular good selection of cocktails. We thought prices were about average for the area and we enjoyed the experience of eating here.

Been going to the tudor for over five years ,but our last visit was disappointing. The menu had changed and the prices had went up but the portion size had went down.service and staff were fine but at the end we paid the bill and gave it to the girl .we were waiting on our change to arrive for about 15 mins , but it didn't come .the bill was 82.00 and we gave 90.00 I approached the counter on way out and told the girl that we were still waiting on our change but we were giving it as a tip .the girl apologised and said sorry .just prefer my change to come back to the table .

Absolutely superb in over 50 years of eating Chinese food this is the best Beef Curry that I’ve ever had. Starters and other meals were brill.👏👏

Beautiful view. Service was immaculate. Food was very tasty. Everyone had something different and they were all good. Pricing was ok (a tad high but it was expected). I’d highly recommend.

Amazing dinner on Friday night Steak pie 🥧 Amazing starter chicken tempura lovely chocolate fudge cake was massive 👌 staff were also amazing big thanks for my birthday treat 😋

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

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

Poor choices for vegetarians and pescatarian with my food requiring heated in the microwave. Plenty desserts and staff attentive enough.

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.

Often visited in the past and while I do understand the current limitations while Covid is lurking around the price for two people to have a two course meal with a few drinks was just over £90!!!! I’m sorry, but this is not Turnberry or the Hilton in central London. Won’t be back until sensible pricing returns. Food was ok, a bit average but the staff were as always polite and friendly. The once varied menu was much more limited than before but there’s always something for either of us.

Souters is a regular go to for us and we’ve enjoyed many breakfasts, lunches and dinners there. Food great as usual on this visit but poor service, staff attitude and general presentation on this occasion.

we had a curry the best ever staff great will be back again in july cant wait. so good stairs to toilet a bit dodgy but that does not go against the quality of the food.

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 😋
