DOUBLE DELIGHT AT THE PARK HOTEL
When it comes to café bars, they don’t come much better than Pavilion – at the park – and that’s official!
Pavilion – at the park -, the all-day café bar at The Park Hotel, Kilmarnock, won ‘Best Café Bar’ at Scotland’s Business Awards last month, one of the biggest business competitions in the country.
The café bar has been a favourite with locals, hotel guests and visitors since it opened in 2021 thanks to its relaxed atmosphere, welcoming staff (under the guidance of manager, Jackie Lamond) and excellent food and drink options.
Open daily from 9am until 11pm Sunday to Thursday, and 9am until 1am on Fridays and Saturdays, it’s the perfect choice whatever the occasion, whatever time of day.
Breakfast is served from 9am until 11.30am and caters for appetites big and small. Lunch and light bites are then available from 11.30am until 5.30pm with options including sandwiches, baked potatoes, loaded fries, salads, and brunch-style protein boosters. An evening bar menu is then served from 5.30pm until 8pm.
The seating options in Pavilion – at the park – are as extensive as the menu with a choice of comfy sofas, bar stools, or stylish dining chairs. Not forgetting the outside terrace area (with heaters, if needed) – perfect for coffee and cake!
Reservations are not required at Pavilion – at the park – unless you intend to indulge in Afternoon Tea, which can be upgraded to include Prosecco or Hendricks gin.
Alternatively, you may prefer a Chatter Platter – a Charcuterie Board for two with a bottle of Prosecco, red, white or rosé wine.

The café bar also offers a Gin, Rum and Whisky of the Month, as well as an extensive drinks list and cocktail menu.
It really is no wonder that Pavilion – at the park – was awarded ‘Best Café Bar’ at Scotland’s Business Awards. But this isn’t the only thing The Park Hotel is celebrating. The hotel’s restaurant, Blues – at the park -, was recently named among the Top 50 Hotel Restaurants in the UK, by OpenTable and KAYAK consumer research.
Restaurant Manager, Lynsey Robertson, Head Chef, Logan McGuire, and their respective teams, have worked hard to achieve this fabulous accolade, ensuring guests receive not just first-class service but exceptional food and wonderful memories.
The spacious, contemporary restaurant offers breakfast, lunch and dinner (last booking 8.45pm) and an a la carte menu inspired by the very best local produce. This includes seafood, steaks, vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options, and a delectable selection of starters and desserts. Light Bite alternatives are served in the restaurant from 12 until 2.15pm, Monday to Friday.
Blues – at the park – is not just a hotel restaurant, it’s a unique dining experience with a reputation as one of the UK’s best. Coupled with the award-winning café bar, it really puts Kilmarnock’s Park Hotel on the map.
