Tim Hortons - South Ayrshire

I took my wife to this restaurant for a drink and a couple of doughnuts. I have been here a few times with my daughter, and the doughnuts have always been soft and fresh. However, when we went today, they were very dry and tasted stale. We tried six different ones and they all had a hard, stale taste. So, we decided to go to Asda instead and bought two delicious, fresh doughnuts for a cheaper price than one stale one from Hortons. I would recommend doing the same!

I stayed at the Travelodge across the street and decided to visit the restaurant because of its good reputation. However, my experience was disappointing. The server was outside the kitchen smoking and chatting with the cook, the seating area had a mix of clean and dirty tables. I found a somewhat clean table in the back and ordered a nacho cheese burger, nacho fries, timbits, and two coffees. The cheese burger seemed microwaved, with a soggy bun, limp lettuce, and cheese spilling out everywhere. The nacho fries were soggy and tasteless, overpriced. The timbits tasted old and chewy, as if they were made four days ago. The coffee was mediocre but at least masked the strange smell from whatever was being sprayed on the tables nearby. Overall, my experience at this establishment was not pleasant.

Amazingly, this was my first ever visit to the chain (most folk were in disbelief at that). Situated conveniently next to the Travelodge we were staying at, I managed to pop in a couple of times. I had the pleasure of trying the Crispy Chicken Wrap with a Smore’s Caramel Latte to drink both were great. I then visited for a Breakfast, ordering their take on a Maccy’s DS&E McMuffin Meal genuinely thought it was better, in particular the Hash Brown. Price wise, it was definitely cheaper than other leading fast food retailers. Very much a revelation just a pity they’re not dotted about a bit more in Scotland. Would happily return in the future.

We popped in for some breakfast, the service was good and quick. The food was very tasty and warm. The self service kiosks were both broken and the menu is too small to read but would recommend!

Great food! Best mocha about.. Kate is awesome! Always feel welcomed when coming to the Ayr branch.
