The Hollybush Inn - East Ayrshire

Food good, portions not too big, just right really. Staff were very nice, and it was dog friendly. Didn't have to book. A great Saturday evening dinner, as we're her for a few days .

We celebrated my 70 th birthday here last week. The food was delicious and very well presented, the staff are excellent and it is great there is plenty of room inside between tables. We will be back!

The food at this restaurant is delicious, well presented, and served in generous portions. Dogs are welcome in the bar area, with ample space for our large greyhound and a bowl of water provided upon arrival. We would like to extend a special thanks to Hugh for his excellent service. Our previous experience here for a funeral reception was also flawless.

2nd time having the pleasure to eat at this restaurant. Delicious meals!! Presentation was beautiful and the food was so fresh full of flavour. The meat just melts in your mouth the veg is cooked to perfection creamy fluffy mash. The sweet potato purée is a lovely pop of flavour. I would highly recommend going here for any occasion!! Staff are so friendly and welcoming, kid friendly and dog friendly. They instantly brought a dog bowl with fresh water for our dog. James the chef is a lovely person and an exceptional chef. Happy to chat with us about his menu and fresh ingredients I also appreciated the G.F without it tasting like G.F. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals so much that my mum wasn’t aware they were G.F. The best meals we’ve had out in years. We will Definitely be back. The restaurant is modern and fresh all the staff are friendly and welcoming. The dining areas are well spaced making it much more relaxing, we weren’t concerned about bumping someone’s chair, or our dog being too close to someone else’s table. Very spacious and comfortable.

The restaurant offers fantastic traditional Scottish cuisine with a modern and inviting atmosphere. The staff is friendly and we look forward to returning in the future.
