The Rockpool

Brilliant seafood restaurant. A tad hidden away but the food and service were top notch. For seafood lovers so if you don't eat seafood then the menu is probably not for you!! Thanks for Gavin and Fiona for being great hosts. Gavin runs the kitchen and Fiona is front of house.

Our first nervous venture back to restaurants after the easing of Covid restrictions. The staff were exceptionally helpful - seated us at a secluded table so we were relaxed and were able to enjoy our delicious food. Excellent, friendly staff. We shall certainly return.

Anniversary night, Friday night! First time here and we LOVED it. Set in the historic Queens Court in Ayr, the dining lounge is bordered by the original exposed stone walls, simply and beautifully furnished. We were smiling even as we approached. A genuinely warm welcome from staff who clearly enjoyed working there. We both ordered the 'Seafood Trio' - Seabass, langoustines & mussels. OH MAMA. DELICIOUS. The bisque it was dressed in was literally DIVINE. We probably should have ordered starters as the main was not quite enough, maybe some fresh bread to mop up the juices may have been a suitable accompaniment we will probably order next time. AND THERE WILL BE A NEXT TIME. The bottle of Italian white wine we ordered, delicious though it was, was nowhere near cold enough. I pray this restaurant survives through & thrives after this pandemic and beyond. Sadly last night, we were one of only 2 tables in the entire place. RECOMMENDED.
