About Spudbuds
Spudbuds is a walk-up food truck on Alloway Street in Ayr, serving baked and jacket potatoes from a takeout window with no seating on site. The menu centres on custom-built potatoes, with each order built around the customer's choice of toppings. Alongside the potatoes, the truck sells cheesecakes to take home. Service is walk-in, with orders placed at the window for collection. The setup suits a quick lunch in town or a casual bite on the move, and the truck's compact format keeps the focus squarely on the food it hands over.

“I was enthusiastically told about this place by numerous people whilst working in the area, it did not disappoint. Good selection of toppings, good price and very good portions, it is worth a detour if your in the area.”
- Paul Wood
“An amazing jacket spud. Really big, nice and soft, with a good colour on the skin, and plenty of delicious filling. If you enjoy a jacket spud, this is a must visit.”
- Sarah Schuler
“Auf der Suche nach einem Abendessen, bin ich mit meiner Tochter heute ganz zufällig bei Spudbuds gelandet. Meine wilde (fleischlose) Eigenkreation an Kartoffel (und da sind wir als deutsche Kartoffel-Vielesser ja doch auch kritisch 😜) schmeckte ganz fantastisch, abgerundet vom wirklich netten Service der Jungs und vom sehr gemütlichen Ambiente! Vielen Dank für diese tolle Geschmacksexplosion!”
- Fiona Ferguson
“Services was amazing as were the potatoes. Our first time but we will be back. And the cheesecakes we took home are so tasty.”
- T. W.
“Spud Buds was absolutely fantastic! The potatoes were loaded, delicious, and big enough to require a game plan. Come hungry—or bring backup! Great food, friendly service, and definitely worth chasing down this food truck again. Spud Buds turned an ordinary potato into a full-blown masterpiece!”
