Colin Blair, Buzzworks Holdings Chairman, said: “After 11 years of successful trading, we believed that it was the right time to reinvest and modernise Scotts Largs as part of our wider growth strategy.

“It’s a fantastic venue and we have retained elements of its original concept, but this investment has allowed us to really enhance the relaxed and enjoyable experience we offer to visitors, through an up-to-date interior, fantastic covered outside space and new kitchen.

“We want to give Largs and the local community a venue to enjoy and be proud of, with all the changes being made with our customers in mind.

“We look forward to welcoming guests to our stylish new Scotts Largs venue for the opening this weekend and in the lead up to Christmas.”
