The Smithy A77 in South Ayrshire

Changing my previous 5 star to a 2 star after today's visit. Very disappointed. Same food but very different result. Today's chicken was chewy, had hard bits in it, looked black. Completely different to last times flavoursome marvel.Soup was also quite bland today.Cake was also a bit tasteless.Not sure what's happened, but it was a million miles away from my last rave reviewFood was very tasty and served quickly for a Saturday. Had the special chicken and mango chilli on ciabatta and it was flavours were exploding out.Toastie came out as asked for, a little lighter. Staff were very nice.Hidden gem

Stopped off at the Cafe on a bike tour through Scotland. The service was brilliant the personal touch from the owner was brilliant , she was friendly and fun. Even let me try some haggis which now I am a complete convert over. food was delicious and the drinks very tasty. if I wasn't so far away I would pop in more often even just to help put up more lights :)

I'm not really one to leave reviews, but after our first visit I want everyone to know how lovely the smithy is! we came down yesterday for an afternoon tea, and we could not be happier. the food was plentiful and tasted amazing, the cake selection was wonderful and the staff couldn't have been better. we'll definitely be booking again! also, the decor inside is so lovely, I can't rate the smithy highly enough.

A great find for breakfast/brunch. Not only was the food amazing but the service was prompt and very friendly. We were visiting from Arizona USA and much appreciated the conversation and interest. The two adorable ladies running the bakery were wonderful. We also took several delicious treats to go. We ordered a breakfast sandwich, Scottish breakfast ( including Hagas) 1st time eating, and biscoff pancakes. The tea and hot cocoa were delicious too!

There is a bit of work going on, which is good to see, I'm sure it'll look fantastic when finished.The food is outstanding.The service not so much, one girl was quite impolite and gave the impression you were getting in the way by coming through the door. Mediocre coffee.

The Smithy is a lovely café with a very attractive interior. I particularly liked the fairy lights and chandeliers! It's very conveniently placed for the main road. We just had coffee on this occasion, but the menu looks great! Plus the staff were so welcoming. Thank you.

Alway drive past hear and think I'd like to go there one day we'll today I did and it was spot on lovely decor staff all help full and friendly and the food was amazing deffo be back 💯 %

Bought a cream donut near end of the day for £4+ to takeaway, went to eat it when I got home and realised it was off. Staff member serving was lovely, however another staff member rudely asked us to stand at the other end of the counter where we could not see cakes we were looking to buy. Same staff member was also rude to my partner when she asked to use the toilet. Place looks really nice inside but at £14 for two cakes with one of them being off coupled with the rudeness we experienced from 1 staff member we won't be back.

What a great breakfast while the car is charging!Great menu, very friendly people and a lovely cafe. See pic for our breakfast.BP Polar/Pulse/Chargemaster needs taming: check if the last user pushed the red button because that disables it. And it’s the BP Pulse app the makes it work, unless you have a special card.Cafe update 30 Dec 21: It's even better! Brilliant fairy lights screens between tables, jewellery counter and excellent food. And cakes!

Must confess I have driven past the Smithy dozens of times and never stopped. That was a mistake. While the menu isn't huge the quality is excellent. There is also a specials board if you want something a bit different. Great selection of cakes etc which only by a feat of discipline I managed to avoid( but maybe next time). There is also a small gift counter with a good selection of items that may be attractive leading up to Christmas. Great parking, friendly and attentive servers. Would recommend
