A popular pub and restaurant in Cumnock has announced it will re-open next week, following refurbishments by new management.

The Thistle Inn on Glaisnock Road has been closed for a period of time while it undergoes renovations.

The new team in charge have put in the graft to transform the kitchen, restaurant and pub area of the building.

And it won't be too long before the public can sample it all for themselves.

An opening date has been set for Monday, May 13, with a brand new menu to compliment the new look of the eatery.

With our refurbishment coming closer to finishing we thought we’d let you all have a look at our menu 🍴 We can’t wait...
