A
Beresford
Style and fun go hand in hand at this upbeat establishment serving afternoon martinis in teapots and luring churchgoing ladies with artisanal chocolates. The food is a creative fusion of influences based on solid local produce, with Ayrshire pork, west coast oysters, and Scottish lamb often featuring. Some dishes hit real heights, and are solidly backed by a wide choice of wines, with 10 available by the glass. Upstairs does pizzas and other Italian dishes. It stays open as a bar after the kitchen closes. Top service seals the deal.

Fouter’s
The best place to eat in town, Fouter’s is a class act set in a former bank vault opposite the town hall. It’s an ideal place to splash out on a top-class dinner without breaking the budget. It specialises in Ayrshire produce (such as new-season local lamb with pine nut, garlic and herb crust) and seafood prepared Mediterrean style. There’s an early-dining menu (£15 for two courses) from 5pm to 7pm.

Pumpernickel
Continental-style toasties and other delicious snacks are dished out at this deli-café. Dine indoors among the cheeses, meats and preserves or at outdoor tables on the pedestrianised street. It’s a good spot for a glass of wine in the afternoon, too. If the weather’s right, go for a gelato (£6).
