The Long House, located at 130 Titchfield St in Kilmarnock, is a culinary haven well-loved by locals and visitors alike. Patrons rave about the warm, inviting atmosphere, perfect for gatherings with friends or family. The exceptional quality and flavor of the food stand out in every review, highlighting a menu filled with thoughtfully prepared dishes. Kevin Adamson describes the meals as "exceptional," while Lynne Samson emphasizes the quality, noting she was thoroughly impressed before a local event.

This is a fantastic place to meet friends and family for a lovely meal and drinks. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming and the staff are fabulous. Our meals were exceptional and full of flavour and high quality. We were not rushed or left too long. Our desserts were delicious too. We can't wait to visit again next time we're in Kilmarnock.

This was my first visit to The Long House. It was quiet when I went in, but a few others came in later. I ordered a breakfast roll, and it was very good. The sausages that this group serve are really tasty and are seasoned well - really good.

Delicious food , fantastic service , the girl serving was very helpful and friendly. Was a bit surprised they don’t have any Ale’s on draft but the lagers were great anyway. I’ve tried the Chicken Pate and the Chicken skewers. The portions were decent , the only thing I was a bit disappointed was the chicken pate . I was expecting it to be homemade but it was similar with the one you get from the supermarket with 1 . Even the shape of it was of a plastic container. Very good looking desserts and fantastic decor.

Went to the Longhouse for my big birthday breakfast without having to make a booking. Great welcome and service was first class. Expressed our gratitude and turned out the waiter on work experience from a local college. The guy was brilliant and clearly has a bright future in the hospitality industry. Now looking forward to a return visit in near future.

We were lucky enough to have Christmas dinner here this year. We were greeted really nicely by a friendly bartender and we had a little banter with him while we waited for our table to be ready. The menu was fabulous and worth every penny. Food choices were so nice and we were very impressed. The atmosphere was brilliant - no rushing - beautifully decorated too. Cocktails were lovely. All in all 100% satisfied with everything on Christmas evening. Thanks for having us!

What a fantastic family meal along with brilliant serves from the crew! Only thing wrong was we asked for the fish and pitinted to the one we had selected on the venue, however, there was two options and we go the wrong one! Still delicious. The starter of whipped Goats Chees was out of this world and we would highly recommend this dish.
