Find out what British restaurants to try in South Ayrshire. The village of Alloway is home to the Robert Burns Birthplace Museum and the Robert Burns Heritage Trail. Highlights of the trail include Auld Kirk Alloway, Burns Cottage, Burns Monument Gardens and the 13th century Brig O'Doon. South of Alloway along the attractive A719 coastal road is Culzean Castle and Country Park which offers much of interest all ages. En route is an unusual roadside attraction called Electric Brae, a 'magnetic hill' where a car left out of gear will appear to go uphill due to an optical illusion. A few minutes drive from Culzean Castle is the famous Open Golf championship course at Turnberry where the clubhouse is open to the public.

Outstanding value for money.I cannot think of another restaurant that can come anywhere near the quality and choice at this price.In fact, ignore the price because you could pay twice as much and have much poorer fare!Please, do yourself a favour and treat your taste buds to this outstanding food.I can’t rate it highly enough.

We stopped here for lunch after visiting the Burns centre and had a very enjoyable Sunday roast. My wife enjoyed the lamb and I greatly enjoyed the roast lion of pork.Everything was cooked and presented well with plenty of flavour as you would expect. Wine list was reasonable. Service professional and attentive.Tables are in the bar area...would have been great to sit outside of the weather had been more favourable.

Terrible experience.Arrived at 1.20pm ordered at 1.40pm waited 35 mins for our main course and felt cold by this time.Should have walked out but did not..Ordered the lamb cofta,,as recommend. by the waitress, as I said I liked lamb,as not sure if I would like it. When it finally arrived I could not eat it as a bit dry and far to spicy. Spoke to Dorothy the owner who,s attitude appeared to be well you ordered it . She did not offer to try and sort anything out for me My friend and Ileft without ordering a sweet or coffee It’s a sad day when a pensioner leaves dissatisfied with no food having paid £12.95. and had travelled over 15miles. Will not be back or recommend.could be small ,so asked the waitress about the lamb cofta.I should have asked what cofta was as did not know and only asked about lamb on flat bread. She felt I would like it. So thought I would give it a try. Unfortunately I could not eat it as the lamb is made minced up and does not taste like lamb. When I said to the waitress I felt it was too spicy and was dry. I was left with nothing to eat..Dorothy came over, but her attitude was well to bad that is what you ordered. As a new customer having travelled 20miles she could have tried to sort something out but did not appear to be interested. We did not stay on for a pudding. A pensioner that pays £12.95 and has to leave well over an hour with nothing to eat is shocking. Will never be back and don’t recommend.

Had a wonderful dinner here, standard of cuisine was WAY beyond our expectations! You can get everything from classic pub-grub and a great children’s menu to excellent steaks and a high standard of cuisine including duck and red snapper. The menu choices change regularly.

Went for Lunch with my daughter, we were seated straight away, I ordered Macaroni with chips and salad my daughter had the special some sort of panini or wrap with chips. We were both very hungry. Service was very quick, Macaroni had obviously been blasted through the microwave as it was hot round the edges and only slightly warm in the middle chips were not very warm and had obviously been sitting a while, my daughters chips were the same it was very disappointing.Thanks for your review. I do hope you had made your complaint known to the staff. If you had they would’ve corrected this straight away. It is not in any of our interests to have any customer leaving our premises unhappy. We are only human and mistakes sometimes happen unfortunately. We would have corrected it and apologised to you if we had known about it at the time. Our apologies once again for this sub-standard service. I do hope this has not put you off from trying us again.

We have stumbled upon this great little restaurant. I’ve had breakfast which was made to order, lunch and now dinner. The service is good. Ambience nice. The food excellent!!! I had asked again for something not on the menu, they actually met my request and delivered my favourite pud, macaroons... delicious, thank you! It was busy with two large groups but this did not impact on the service or quality of our experience. It is rare to feel totally one hundred percent happy after a meal. My standards are reasonably high but I get sick of poor service and mediocre food when I know I can present a meal at a better standard, for a fraction of the cost. This restaurant is certainly achieving everything I require and I can recommend it highly. The monkfish starter was just delicious. My husbands steak was cooked, as he likes to perfection, melting in his mouth.

Attended with friends for lunch. Can’t really fault the food. Portion sizes not great but taste and presentation was good. Found the establishment itself very claustrophobic, small, and very noisy. Could hear everyone’s conversation around you. Would be a very frustrating place if you wanted to go and chill out with a coffee and read the paper.....unless there was no one else in.
