Basement bar down several steps from street level, with the entrance denoted by a large Wellington boot on the pavement. This was my favourite bar I visited in Ayr. Walking in, I instantly felt at home. There was a warm welcome from the young barmaid and locals sat at the bar were all quite friendly and chatty, happy to discuss the merits of some of the real ales on the bar. A group of French men were also sat along one wall sampling Scottish whiskies.
3 Scottish real ales were on - Loch Lomond Say Hello To My Little Friend and both Goldihops and Sunriser from Kelburn. The interior is reasonably compact, with seating wrapping almost around the central bar.

hidden cellar bar but worth seeking out, friendly pleasant interior & small outside terrace. Good beer

The pub is SOUTH AYRSHIRE PUB OF THE YEAR 2013 awarded by CAMRA. Situated across the road from the War Memorial park and is under street level making it reasonably difficult to find. The owner has owned this bar for over 24 years. The owner informed me that due to selling real ale and the local Ayr horse racing, buses stop and drop of lots of passengers just to visit this pub. It was once part of the Ailsa Hotel, which is now used as a lawyer’s office. Meals are available, but the chef is not well and is in hospital (as of 11th February 2014). So a new chef is wanted. I will update when this happens the next time I visit.
