The West Kirk

This is a Wetherspoons pub and restaurant in Ayr but the building is unique and I've never seen anything like it. When walking past this place I had assumed it was just a church but I was surprised to learn it was renovated into a functioning pub. Going inside you could see how much love they put into this place and I enjoyed my time here. Very standard experience with the food and drinks as I can order through the QR code or in the pub and they would be served to the table. The toilets were very well maintained too and there was a lot of staff happy to help with anything which was a nice difference. Honestly, out of all the Wetherspoons pubs I've been to this easily ranks in the top for me.

Recommended for the building alone really. It’s a JD Wetherspoons so you know the score , surely. Loads of ale on and serving food at reasonable prices. Open early too. Only had the one to take in the ambience. Not much going on in there but it’s a nice enough vibe for the one. Like i say, id recommend it for building. The selection of ale is obviously a bonus! 🍻 🍲 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 ⛪️ 🪦✝️🙇‍♂️🙇🏻🧔🏼‍♀️

A very busy place, at the top end of the Sandgate in Ayr, with a great atmosphere inside or there's a small seating area outside. As it's an old church, the architecture is beautuful. It's ideally situated for a meal & drinks before a theatre visit at the Gaiety etc. Drinks are cheaper than a lot of places nearby & they serve food all day, again at great prices. It would've been 5 stars if not for the steak I had. This time, that was a bit tough & chewy. The staff are very pleasant & helpful too. Update:- I came again about 10 days or so ago & swayed from my usual fish & chips & decided on the mixed grill. I wish I'd not bothered as the meat was hard & had a weird taste to it. If I'd seen a member of staff nearby to me, I'd have told them, but couldn't see anybody apart from the busy bar staff. The chef must've been having a bad day.
