Visit here every time we are on Arran. Lovely seating inside and outside. The pides are amazing - especially the haggis - and come with plenty of salad.
Visited last week with my little one who absolutely loved the play area. Will happily spend £2.50 to play again, She loved it.
Sat outside and enjoyed a lovely ham and cheese sandwich and chips, very yummy indeed. The chips are phenomenal!
I would like to see more on the menu for toddlers though. The kids menu was a bit pricey in my opinion.
But will definitely be back! :)
Very nice bacon and egg roll, and excellent service . The guys are very nice and kind. Very nice place to have breakfast and have a lovely time there. Also, very big variety
Bustling but friendly service, great food, haggis and cheese pide is a fab fusion of Turkish and Scottish cuisine!
If you have small children this is a great cafe to visit as they have an extensive outdoor play area for kids.
Our lunch was delicious, wholesome, good food served in large portions. The staff were attentive and very helpful.
Very full on a Saturday and quite tightly packed inside. Keeping 1.5 m distance quite impossible. Would give max. 4 stars for that, but then everything else is so good: the food, the tea, incredibly friendly staff. Great playground for little and big ones alike. Very family-friendly. Clean toilet.

Cafe Thyme is set in a stunning location, overlooking rolling paddocks giving way to views of the sea, and beyond that to Mull.
It is a minutes drive up a well maintained, single track lane, ending in a well sized parking area.
From this elevated position the views are sublime, on what was for us, a cloudless, warm, sunny day.
There is a large grassed play area, with an assortment of toys for younger children to use, as well as interactive activities for the kids, such as Duplo blocks.
There is outdoor seating available too, which was all good quality furniture. Dogs seemed to be welcome.
Entrance is gained by passing the front of the cafe and turning right up access steps to the rear, which was slightly confusing as people also seemed to use an access door located nearest the car park side of the cafe.
The interior of the cafe is smart, uncluttered and comfortable. Again, there are panoramic views across the distant water.
As vegetarians, we were offered plenty of choice from a classy menu, and the Greek salads with pitta breads we selected were fresh, plentiful and delicious. The price was appropriate for the quality of the food.
The staff were smart, polite, and welcoming, and exuded a professional, but relaxed, air.
The loos were modern and clean.
In summary, the location is wonderful, the staff, food and prices excellent, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it based on our experience.
Incidentally, there are adjoining shops at the Byre selling clothes and shoes, both worth a look.
Popped in just after 3pm looking for lunch, cafe had just closed for foor orders but chef kindly made me a Greek salad. Very friendly staff. Will be sure to visit again during lunch hours next time we are visiting Arran.
Excellent pides served with a huge salad and topped up our meals with excellent skin on chips with a great range of teas which you can also take to go. Great cafe with very friendly service.
Had lunch in the cafe today and couldn’t have enjoyed it more. The food was delicious and the portions big (chicken noodle soup & a sandwich), and the staff could not have been nicer.
Would highly recommend.
