The best restaurants serving British food in Ardrossan and Arran North Ayrshire South West Scotland

Great lunch spot, fab team of polite, cheerful and energetic staff - Megan and Annie in particular are superb. Menu seems more limited on some days than other for no apparent reason but everything produced is good quality, tasty and reasonable portion sizes. Always feel it could do with more tables than it has!

Perfect spot on a rainy day . Service was professional and friendly . Good choice on the menu with the soup and sandwich combo really good value . Decking outside looks well kept . Great value and good quality .

Kelly has the best cafe inside here, if you’re looking for food in Ardrossan then this is the place to go!

Excellent restaurant located in Lamlash. We booked in advance on their website. As soon as we walked into the hotel foyer we could tell it was going to be a good meal just by the smells coming from the restaurant.! Seated promptly, order taken when we were ready - the service was really excellent and so was the food, especially the seafood. Really friendly staff, had some nice chat and banter with the owner - and even when it came to dessert where we could not really decide between two - we eventually made a decision on one to share but because we couldn't decide he came out with both of the options for no extra charge. Really was an above and beyond experience and we will definitely be back when we visit Arran again next year.

Drinks one visit, delicious meal the next. Besides the great food and service on our visits, I lost my glasses there and didn't realise until I got home. Not only did the Ormidale staff find my glasses, they also took the time to phone and let me know and post them to me. Above and beyond. We would highly recommend The Ormidale for its service, atmosphere, food and after care of careless customers! Thank you.

Excellent coffee. Delicious cakes, scones , and biscuits baked every morning on the premises by owner John Copperwheat. Friendly service. Convenient location opposite the ferry terminal. Highly recommended

We played two rounds at Lamlash on the weekend of 10th May and really enjoyed the experience. Relatively short course, but by no means easy and some tremendous scenery to view throughout. We were fortunate to have great weather as well. We were well looked after by Drew at the Starters Box on Friday and again by James when we played on Sunday. Sincere thanks to both gentlemen for looking after us. If we are back to Arran again for golf we will for sure play Lamlash. Would not hesitate to recommend.

Food and service excellent today. Children well catered for too. No problems accommodating an elderly wheelchair user. Only downside was lack of parking in disabled spaces due to inconsiderate parking by other guests.

Very expensive but food was nothing special. Fish was cooked fresh but chips tasted like they'd been pre-cooked and sitting a while. Portions are very small for the money too. Maybe a bit too reliant on being the only chippy on Arran and one of the few takeaways in Brodick that's open in the evening. Don't know that I'd have gone back if there was any other choice.

Lovely conservatory with nice atmosphere. Main course Thai Chicken stir fry - rice was quite stodgy and chicken was mediocre. Lemon Meringue pie was as flat as a pancake and the clotted cream was far too heavy. Dessert was very expensive.

We were staying at the Seal Shore campground and the Hotel was next door. We had been in previously for drinks and decided to come get for food on hubby’s birthday It did not disappoint… lovely fish and chips and a “ on the house pudding” for hubby’s birthday 🥳 What a lovely welcoming restaurant and the music was great too

Delighted that the hotel had reopened and thought we would try it out during our recent visit to the island. Arrived too early for lunch, so thought we would kill time and have a coffee until service started. Disappointed when we were refused coffees and turned away as it wasn’t yet 12pm. When we asked to use the toilets we were informed they were for customers only. Sometimes you can’t win.

Lovely lunch staff were great even accommodated our doggy Daisy with some sausages..well worth the money thank you so much x
