Lunch Box

Lunch Box on Hamilton Street in Saltcoats serves as a daytime cafe and sandwich shop on the Three Towns' busiest food street. The name signals its pitch — working lunches, hot rolls, soup and light meals for shoppers and local workers in the town centre. Hamilton Street runs parallel to the seafront in Saltcoats, close to the harbour area, and a daytime diner of this kind fills a gap between the evening takeaways that dominate the strip. Saltcoats is the most central of the Three Towns on the Ayrshire coast, and the town centre trade supports a mix of fast-food, cafe and restaurant businesses along and around Hamilton Street. The Three Towns area has strong rail links, and the Saltcoats station brings a steady flow of commuters through the town centre through the week.
