Cumnock's Meat in the Middle will officially open today after weeks of planning.

The Aberdeen Angus fanatics teased on their official Meat in the Middle Facebook page at the beginning of October that they were thinking of opening a new store in Cumnock.

Now the dedicated Meat in the Middle - Cumnock Facebook page has announced that they will officially open their doors at 4pm on Tuesday, November 22.

Meat in the Middle have teamed up with Top O The Brae Chippie on Tower Street, to bring their food to the surrounding areas.

There were plans for a sit-in restaurant in one of the old bank buildings, but that idea was deemed unviable.

Group director, Ross Gilmour said previously: "We changed our business model during the energy crisis from not only opening independant stores, but teaming up with existing food outlets - training them on our products and how to prepare our meals which allows them to service customers to our satisfaction, but at the same time helps the food outlet earn extra income during these unprecedented times.

"The response we've had has been exceptional on the news that we're coming and it's a great strategic move for Meat in the Middle and Top O The Brae.

"We can't wait to be on the doorsteps of Cumnock and surrounding areas and we hope the local community will come along and support us when we open!"

 

Today is THE DAY🥳 We are so excited to announce that we will be opening tonight @ 4pm🤩 We ask for your patience and...
