Stopped here as it looked so pleasant, right next door to Burns monument and the lovely Bridge. Lunch was a very ample sandwich with crisps, simple enough but very well done. Nice staff and a reasonable price. Would definitely go back if in this area, nice memories. More

We have been coming here ever since our wedding reception 29 years ago and cannot rate the place high enough. Great food, lovely surroundings, set in the heart of Burn's country. This was the first time we had tried their lunches and was suprised at the reasonable prices compared to what you would have been charged for the same at... More

Bank Holiday Monday so our intrepid 4 booked a leisurely lunch at the Brig O' Doon. The restaurant was reasonably busy and we were seated by the maitre 'D. Menus provided and we all noted that the 2 course special lunch menu at £12.95 had everything we wanted. Starters were well above the average for a hotel lunch menu and... More

We stayed here for our wedding and booked out the Doonbrae House to stay in for the weekend. We were very impressed by the quality of service we received and I was very surprised by some of the negative reviews on here as that has never been our experience. This place has been a favourite of mine for a long... More

Having passed a few times, always wanted to pop in. So after a nice walk around alloway, we dropped in for a coffee and maybe a light lunch. Well,we were turned away at the door, as they were expecting a wedding and there was no space. No apology, no attempt at hospitality, I had said we would sit in any... More

Had lunch here on Saturday. The food was good but the service terrible. When we were seated at our table and asked about drinks we said we'd like some wine with our meal. Menus arrived, but no wine list. Had to ask three more times before one was provided, but then it took nearly 10 mins to get an order... More

First time back here after our wedding nearly four years ago. It was a busy Friday evening with a huge wedding reception also. Service was excellent, the staff made time to talk to us even though every table was booked and the bar bustling. My Cullen Skink starter was the best ever, followed by a delicious chicken breast stuffed with... More

We were visiting all of the local Burn's sights and the Tam o'Shanter bridge when we decided to go for a meal at this local hotel. We were welcomed at reception to the bar area which was so warm and relaxing. There was a separate area for weddings which was stunning. The hotel has beautiful gardens and views of the... More

Was recently in Ayr and decided to try the Early Bird Special at the hotel. Thought about just having 2 courses but when viewing the menu decided to take all 3. Can recommend the following Parfait of Goose and Chicken Liver with Apple Chutney and Bannocks [little oatie biscuits], Escalope of Pork with French Gruyere Cheese and Ayrshire Cured Bacon... More

I recently came here for a local school Burns supper with my 2 sons who have severe food allergy to milk/dairy products. Despite completing a form provided by the school re dietary requirements, phoning the hotel the night before, being reassured that they could cope with this, and speaking to the waiting staff on the evening to point out my...
