Spicy Hut

Spicy Hut on Lugar Street serves the centre of Cumnock, the East Ayrshire former mining town that lies in the shadow of Dumfries House — the Georgian mansion saved for the nation by King Charles III (then Prince of Wales) in 2007. The Indian and fast-food takeaway covers curries, tandoori dishes, pizzas, and kebabs, serving the working-class community of a town that has reinvented itself around heritage tourism and local industry since the pits closed. Lugar Street connects the town square to the western residential streets, and Spicy Hut provides a convenient carry-out option for this stretch of the town.
