😠 Travelled from Glasgow. Was told 45 min wait for a table for 4 (2 adults & 2 children), which was fine and as expected - as we've been a couple of times before so know how it works. They take your number, you go for a walk and they phone you when they have a table ready for you. Today we waited 1hr...

Porthead Tavern and Hamiltons Restaurant
Bar & grill
πŸ‘πŸ‘ Amazing! Not many reviews as most as it is a true local pub. Dining was booked out often (a good sign) so I ate in the pub which I preferred. In town for a week and was there 4 of the 7 nights. Fish and chips great as well as the fantastic Steak Pie and Peppercorn Chicken Breast. The hero of the 2 c...

πŸ‘πŸ‘ Enjoyed a nice lunch on the sunny terrace after a cycle. Attentive service and good beer selection. The Irn-Bru mayo had a lovely sweetness and worked well with the haggis pakora. Fish burger with Cajun fries was excellent. Could not resist the red velvet cheesecake, a wonderful combination too good...

The Peppermill
Restaurant
πŸ‘ Friendly resto in Irvine. Affordable food with brilliant service. There's also a clean toilet inside. The only con would be that they only accept cash, but there's a nearby cash machine if you're not carrying one

Irvine Beach
Tourist attraction
😐 Although it’s a lovely beach and lovely sand. There are a lot of rude, foul mouthed teenagers that ruined the beach with bottles and rubbish. We were so disgusted by the view of the beach after they had been and gone. Police had to check all of the kids belonging when coming off the trains. I think...
