Restaurant & Coffee Shops
Eating out should be a pleasurable experience, combining excellent ingredients with culinary flair, ambience & atmosphere, knowledgeable service and value
for money. Specialities and reputation often add to the expectations we have, ahead of any meal.
Within the membership of the AFN group we have a geographically spread selection of authentic restaurants and coffee shops, which provide a very interesting range of eating /dining experiences from Michelin Star accolades to acclaimed informal coffee shops.
Meat and Fish Suppliers
The quality of primary produced food, such as meat and fish has much to do with the general methods of husbandry, as well land usage,metods of production, weather and climate.
Ayrshire & Arran is fortunate to have land which is suited to animal farming, as well as 100 miles of coastline.
The determination, professionalism and experience of the "farmers/producers " who supply meat and fish into The Ayrshire Food Network ensure that both members of the public, and colleagues who are skilled chefs & hospitality providers, gain access to very high quality, flavoursome food.
Other Food & Drink Service Suppliers
The Ayrshire & Arran food networks have have more than 25 producers of regional food in addition to meat or fish .
The variety is very significant, ranging from farm house ice creams, non homogenised milk, milk smoothies, an array of cheeses made from cow's, goat or ewe'smik .
Seasonal vegetables, organic produce and herbs, together with soft and autumnal fruits mean that you can source locally and confidently your so called 5 a day portions ! The food miles are definitely reduced when you buy from one of this group.
Accommodation Providers

Delis & Farm Shops
Successful Delis and Farm Shops provide very important focal points for the Ayrshire Food Network and its produce/supplier base.
.Some have been relatively newly established at premises belonging to producers.
