Old Boots left this review about The Laurie Arms
Traditional village inn with two bars and a third sitting room, all decorated almost in English style, stuffed fish, half timbered counter, even horse brasses. Oddly a number of locals have English accents too. The right hand room is sub divided and has a pool table in the far right half. There is also a beer garden at the back. Bench seating at square tables, food is important here but not overwhelming. There is tongue and groove walling in the central bar, plain white in the others with pictures, stuffed fish and a wealth of CAMRA awards. Four handpumps with two in use both beers from nearish Five Kingdoms brewery, Fyne Ales Jarl had just gone off and something from Ayr Brewing was coming next, Five Kingdoms is a frequent visitor. The gents has a fine collection of 1960s “seaside” postcards. Friendly bantering locals, mostly with comments about those not present, and friendly, attentive staff, all in all a splendid pub.

The Laurie Arms is a family-run pub which centres its business on its bar food and restaurant and hosts locals and visitors to the area. They have been trying VERY hard to improve their real ale choice during the summer season. Friendly family, nice locals....roaring fire in the winter!
