About M&S Café
Inside the M&S store at 82 High St, M&S Café is a cafe in Ayr that has served customers since 1935, so the counter is part of a long-running shop-floor setup rather than a standalone unit. The service counter sits immediately to the right of the entrance. Baristas make the coffees and iced drinks, and hot chocolate and tea are served too. Breakfast centres on the bacon roll, which comes with streaky bacon rather than back bacon. Toasties and cakes round out the food for lunch and the afternoon. The menu also lists croissants and soup.

Customer Review Summary
The bacon roll draws the most mentions, with one reviewer praising an excellent bacon butty and hot chocolate, and another wishing back bacon were offered instead of streaky. Staff are described as helpful, friendly and pleasant, with great coffee. One reviewer found the route to the toilet past the service counter a farce, with staff asking people to take the long way round.

“Strange setting for this place in the store. If you need to visit the toilet the route is a farce. There is a service counter immediately to the right of the entrance /exit and this blocks the direct route to the toilet. There is no barrier to stop you taking this route apart from angry staff asking you to take the long route. If it is so unacceptable there should be gates at either end of the service counter to prevent people using logic and using the shortlist route to and from the toilet.”
