Ayr is home to around 46,000 people on Scotland's west coast, a seaside town that Scotland's national poet thought highly enough of to put in verse.
Auld Ayr, Immortalised in Verse
In his 1791 poem Tam o' Shanter, Robert Burns described "Auld Ayr, wham ne'er a town surpasses, for honest men and bonie lasses." Burns was born in 1759 in nearby Alloway, now effectively on Ayr's southern edge, and the town has leaned into the connection ever since, from the Burns Monument to the annual festivities around his birthday.
What that history doesn't leave behind
This town's history doesn't come with a dedicated sweet shop set up for bulk bags, vegan-specific ranges or halal-friendly lines — not the kind of retail a town this size tends to support locally.
Why Ayr shoppers order online anyway
Ayr has a solid high street, but specialist ranges like bulk pick 'n' mix or halal-friendly sweets aren't really catered for locally. Shoppers wanting more than the supermarket aisle typically look towards Glasgow, around 35 miles north, or order online instead.
