Rooms to front and rear left with bar at rear right. Standard keg rubbish but it did have Tomatin whisky.

This attractive thatched roofed building has been a pub for nearly 250 years(apart from a spell in the 50's as a museum to Burns and Tam O'Shanter)and in Burns's epic poem thought to be the starting point for Tam O'Shanter's drunken journey.This is a small pub with the bar to the right of entry and a seated drinking area to the left with another small area on the left up a few steps beyond the bar. There is a decorative stained glass door and what appears to be a few of the original beams still intact although no handpulls on show.There is also a Tam O'Shanter café next door for any foodies. Definitely worth a visit if you are in Ayr

Ayr's oldest pub and the best place to have a drink in the town if you're on the Robert Burns trail, whether or not he actually drank in it. It could be argued that the name is rather inappropriate, given that his poem, "Tam O'Shanter," can be interpreted as a warning against the dangers of strong drink.

It is reputed that Robert Burns once wrote in this pub. Smallish but quite pleasant to sit in and watch the traffic on High Street.
