Harlequin Restaurant

The Harlequin has been around for as long as I can remember visiting Largs and is arguably as famous as Nardini’s, especially amongst locals. It is also held in similar acclaim and has a comforting presence and atmosphere inside. Shaped and laid out much like a roadside diner, the aging décor is charming and quaint rather than old fashioned, perhaps why it remains popular with the retired contingency of the town.
While they keep their style consistently the same, the menu has had a bit of an upgrade in recent years and has for a while been inkeeping with the Glasgow panini eating culture of the West End. They have a massive variety of main courses, keeping things relatively simple but of good quality, staying on the inexpensive side of things. For the wuality of the homemade food the prices are reasonably low, and there are plenty options for health fanatics and veggies alike.
What impresses me most about Harlequin is, however, their dessert selection. The apple pie is to die for, leaving you feeling satisfied and sleepy afterwards. As most good meals should! This place is almost as good as cosy Sunday dinners in with the family, which keeps me returning everytime I’m in the neighbourhood. Don’t go changin’ anytime soon, Harlequin!

A basic, down to earth, but clean and pleasant café/​restaurant with a better choice of meals for vegetarians than some of the other places around Largs. Good value too with plenty to eat for your money and friendly service.
