The best restaurants serving British food in Irvine West North Ayrshire South West Scotland

We recently moved to Irvine and this is our new favourite place. We regularly meet up with our grown up kids and their dogs for dinner. Food is always fantastic and the service is second to none. Our server last night 21/9/24 (tall guy with hair in a ponytail) was particularly fab and very funny. Hubby never usually orders fish when we go out to eat as we are a family of butchers but he’s had the fish and chips our last 3 visits. It’s fantastic that we can bring the dogs with us after a walk at the beach park and you never feel like they are an inconvenience. Steak pie is lovely and the “Wee Wan” is such a good size. Everyone is so pleasant and this is a fab location. Can’t wait for our next visit, thanks once again for being so welcoming

Great place for a quick lunch whilst out shopping.Can recommended the steak Sandwick with chips.Good quick service and friendly staff.

The Auld Brig Restaurant is a delightful dining experience! The charming decor and cozy atmosphere create a welcoming vibe. The menu features a fantastic selection of dishes, all crafted with fresh, local ingredients that burst with flavor. The staff are friendly and attentive, ensuring excellent service. Whether for a special occasion or a casual meal, it’s a must-visit gem!

So went to pick up new Glasses today and as I was straight after work early shift was hungry . A Piri Piri place in mall Called Black Rooster ( yea crazy a chicken place ). It had advertised “ Vegetarian “ menu. Corn burger Paneer wrap Halloumi burger All of these. £4.50. With a variety of “ sauce” flavours . I had decided on the “ corn burger 🍔” Oh sorry we’ve “ phased “ those out . Puzzled look on my face … Ok I no would like the Halloumi Burger. Ahhh ok. With what sauce and do you want lettuce and Mayo Yes please Said I. I really want you to enjoy this I will have the Spicey BBQ please and make that a meal thanks that will be £7.50 Now at this point I sat more in Hope than confidence that this wasn’t a hooge mistake . Sadly it turned out my initial feelings were founded. This mess is what turned up . When is a burger not a burger !! I spoke to a staff member explaining my confusion. Oh we’ve “ phased out the Halloumi burgers” and we now only use the halloumi sticks !!! What would you like to do ? The manager should have explained this when she took your order. I’m sorry if she didn’t . Please just refund me. Thank you. So the moral in the Tale . If it’s a Chicken shop . No matter how “ cool and on trend they want to be seen as having vegetarian options. They will most likely still be a piri piri chicken shop that wants to be Nando’s but still fail with even the basics. 🤮

Nothing special it's a chip shop

They charge a high price for a burger which is not even on par with the major chains. There is a thin pattie, which was still pink in the middle, and a slice of 'plastic cheese' on a very sorry looking bun in crumpled tin foil. Despite cola being the same price on the menu if you have it in meal it is an extra 50p. Only 8p can be accounted for by the sugar tax, the rest is fleecing your customers. To make it worse can wasn't even cold. Only the friendly helpful girl that served me saved this from being a 1 star review.
