What's this?

These are confidence labels. They show how sure we are that what we publish still reflects the restaurant's current practice. They are not a judgement on the restaurant; the wine and cooking are scored separately, out of 100.

  • Beta means assessed and scored, but we are still confirming some details (such as the current wine list) and the restaurant has not yet had the chance to correct any factual inaccuracy, so it is published with that caveat.
  • No label means a fully confirmed entry.
  • In development means not yet a review. It appears so you can see where coverage is coming.

Restaurants often change their menus. The date beside the label says when we last reviewed.

We assessed Lido Troon in July 2026 and this review is based on the food menu and wine list at the time of the review. As menus and wine lists change, we name styles in order for the information to remain more useful as menus change. If things have slipped you can use the Vinealto Dining app including accessing an up to date reading using 'At the Table' from the wine list in front of you in the restaurant. How we assess

Lido is an all-day Mediterranean and wood-fired restaurant in Troon with a broad, sunny, chilli-flecked menu. Its wine sits inside a big all-day drinks list as a compact, taste-banded range, easy to navigate and with much of it poured by the glass in three sizes, strongest in its sparkling and honest in its pricing, if held back by unstated vintages and sweet wines filed out of sight. It will most reward the relaxed diner who wants to match a well-priced glass to a plate by style and is happy to let a glass of fizz do the work against the heat.

Scotts Bar and Restaurant

Troon, South Ayrshire

Modern Scottish and seafood

Scotts is a large marina-side seafood and grill restaurant on the South Ayrshire coast, with a spirit-led drinks list and a smaller, carefully kept wine offer behind it. The wine programme earns its standing on a generous by-the-glass range across three sizes, a fine-bottle-by-125ml Curated Collection and printed pairings against several dishes, held back by safe, brand-led buying and steep mark-ups on the trophy names. It will most reward the diner who drinks by the glass and follows the menu's own suggestions rather than hunting the top of the list for a bottle to seek out.

The Fox and Willow

Ayr, South Ayrshire

Gastropub

The Fox and Willow is a lively Ayr gastropub with a wide, crowd-pleasing kitchen and a cocktail-led bar. Its wine list is short, brand-led and generous by the glass, but it does not reach for the spice and variety of the food, and it offers nothing sweet for a strong dessert menu. It will suit a relaxed group who want a familiar glass with good cooking rather than a drinker chasing a considered cellar.
