Really beautiful little deli style bakery-café with gorgeous produce. Their ham and cheese sourdough baguette was exquisite with really good quality ham and cheese on it and the bread itself is so tasty and fresh. Their smoked salmon and cream cheese homemade bagels were extremely good too. Would definitely retain and recommend.

Supa delish Reuben sandwich. I usually avoid brown sandwiches as they can be dry. This was NOT. Lovely soft bread with the right amount of filling (so you know what you're eating, but can still taste the great flavour of the bread). Perfect coffee, flavourful (not burnt nor bitter). Soft and crumbly Almond tart (and chewy - how on earth did they manage that (). Realistic prices. Friendly and helpful staff. Hop skip and jump to the seats by the river. Couldn't ask for more. Happy Lapin

The menu is limited but it's really just advertising for their delicious sourdough bread. You'll struggle to leave without buying a loaf of the stuff and you won't regret it!!

Narture Artisan Café is the new address for healthy food and especially; sourdough bread. All products are sourced locally. Sourdough bread is home made. I had a hand cut sandwich with local troon smoked salmon & cream cheese and roasted veggies/salad. I also enjoyed a cup of rooibos tea. Staff are working hard. Café is very cosy with a relaxing ambiance. Highly recommended for healthy food lover's.

Called in whilst visiting ayr after reading reviews and seeing how good they cater for allergens/dietary requirements. Having a dairy intolerance, i was a bit weary if the soup had milk in or not. This resulted in me calling the shop 3 times which showed me how helpful and friendly the staff was. I was given full ingredients list and notified that all soups are vegan The soup was the best I have had for some time and the sourdough bread (which they make themselves) was absolutely amazing! Will definitely visit this place again on the future!
