Kilmurry & Co

First time visit to this excellent eatery, lunching with a friend . The restaurant is situated on main Kilmarnock rd at the south tip where shawlands becomes Newlands and has pavement cafe seating suitable for ,at least, todays weather.A typical menu of burgers, sandwiches etc, the bonus is all superior quality .My Pastrami on sourdough was very tasty washed down with a simple pot of tea. Waitress serving us was very friendly and helpful. Overall, a great dining experience well worth repeating. Moderate pricing also is very worthy of note.You know the saying " Well you never know". Whilst waiting for our lunch to arrive at our outdoor table, a guy came along the mainstreet with two large colourful parrots, one in each hand.He stopped and perched them on the restaurant's street advertising sandwich board.These birds are so clever, colourful and attractive .We knew not his purpose but i politely asked for a photo and he said,no problem. As i said " Well, you never know" Unsure? Don't ask Kilmurray, ask Chic Murray.🤗

Enjoyed a lovely brunch today. I had the eggs benedict which were cooked to perfection while the rest of my group had the full cooked breakfast and the vegan equivalent. Everyone was happy and very full. The service was excellent, all the staff were friendly and helpful. They were busy, as its obviously a popular spot but we didn't have to wait too long. Great value for money, we will be back soon!

Staff are nice and the coffee is good. Food definitely needs improving. Came here for brunch and ordered the eggs and ‘sliced’ avocado. It was awful. Rather than use actual avocado, it was clear they had just used a supermarket ‘guac’ - it tasted so artificial and I couldn’t finish it. Really not a hard dish to make taste nice. No seasoning either. Won’t be rushing back, which is a shame because the food used to actually be good. Great location and nice interior though.

Had breakfast outside this morning, on a very warm day. The waitress was both very pleasant and efficient, and a carafe of chilled water was provided when I arrived. As it was both hot and sunny, I asked if the awnings might be extended. I was told - very apologetically - that they were broken. I had a coffee - perfectly acceptable - and Eggs Benedict. Sadly, the dish was very much below par. The poached eggs were overcooked, with almost hard yokes, the bacon, described as 'crispy', was simply tough, both to cut and eat, and the slice of sourdough toast on which the eggs and bacon were served, was very thin, and hard. (A thicker slice would have been softer). The hollandaise sauce was unseasoned, but salt would have dealt with that. All in all, I'm afraid it was a disappointing experience, despite the staff, and the general ambience. If I knew the standard of the food had materially improved, then I would return, but not until then.

The most unimpressive vegan breakfast I’ve had in a long time. The individual items were ok but altogether it was dry and tasteless. Didn’t even have spread for the toast. I don’t mind if places don’t care for vegans, I really dislike a half-arsed attempt at a vegan dish though. Lovely service though.
