Been here a few times. It&#39;s massive, screens everywhere showing the match clearly. Good range of beers on tap. The kids&#39; play zone is huge, keeps them busy for ages. Decent spot for a casual family meal.

The staff here are so lovely. They remembered my name from a previous visit and genuinely seemed happy to see us. Really made the evening feel a bit more personal.

Booked the upstairs function room for a birthday. Selina and her team handled everything smoothly. The food was good, plenty of it, and they sorted gluten-free options without any fuss. The space itself is quite quirky. A practical choice for a group event.

I and my family had a wonderful time for my Dad&rsquo;s birthday last week. The staff could not have been friendlier and they were very happy to fulfil our special requests to make sure my Dad&rsquo;s birthday was a success. The food was absolutely incredible and the portion sizes were very generous. We will definitely be back!

First time here and the pizza crust was the standout. So crisp, almost like a cracker but still chewy inside. The sauce was fresh too, a nice touch. A solid spot.

The breakfast here is really good. I just love the vibe in the back bar area, it&#39;s got this relaxed, cosy feel. Perfect spot to unwind, even if you&#39;re not watching a game.

Ricky was a gem. Just the right amount of attentive, never hovering but always there when we needed a top-up or had a question. His easygoing manner really put us at ease. Made the whole evening flow so nicely.

The chocolate eclair was the best part. They served it warm with a scoop of cold ice cream, which was a really nice touch. The pastry was still flaky. A solid way to end the meal.

The Guinness is spot on, best pint in NI. The open fire makes it a perfect spot to catch up with friends.

The fish and chips special was a highlight. The haddock was huge, with large white flakes in a light beer batter. Chips were perfect.

Been here a few times now. The staff are always friendly, they remember you. Makes it feel like a proper local spot. Food&#39;s decent too.

Nice spot with a decent vibe. Staff were really friendly and helpful. The food was pretty good for the price, and they do takeaway quickly. The place can get a bit loud when it&#39;s busy, but it&#39;s fine.

The beef stew here is something else. Rich, deep flavour, the meat just falls apart. Had it with the sourdough, perfect for soaking up the gravy. That&#39;s the main thing for me.

The staff were so sweet and brought out a dessert with a candle for my friend! Made our little birthday get-together really nice.

Perfect spot for a quick hot chocolate fix. Love the shabby-chic vibe, it&#39;s a nice place to unwind for 20 minutes. Service is always on point and fast.

The salmon was cooked just right, and the sticky toffee pudding was a treat. Good spot for a reliable meal.

Been coming here for years, and the fish and chips is still the one to get. Properly crispy batter, nice flaky cod. A pint of Guinness alongside it just works. A solid local spot.

Really liked the food here. The service was spot on, friendly but not hovering. My favourite was the grilled octopus starter &ndash; tender, with a nice smoky char. A solid spot for a casual dinner.

Lovely little spot, feels like a cosy neighbourhood cafe. The cod was nicely cooked but could have done with a pinch more salt. Staff were really friendly and attentive.

The coastal room&#39;s sea view is stunning, no doubt. But the bed is what really stands out - incredibly comfortable, like sleeping on a cloud. Makes the whole stay.

First time here, and the full English was spot on. The place itself is really nice, bright and airy with comfy booths. Just a really pleasant spot for a casual breakfast.

Food&#39;s tasty, staff are nice. But the desserts are a bit pricey for what you get. They&#39;re tiny! Felt a bit rushed during the lunch rush, but it&#39;s fine for a quick bite.

First time trying their pancakes and they&#39;re so light and fluffy. Honestly, for the quality, the price is a pleasant surprise. I&#39;ll be back for those.

A pretty good spot. The food&#39;s reliably decent and service is fine.

Had a nice, relaxed lunch here. The food is always reliable and tasty - the grilled chicken salad was spot on today. Good spot for a casual bite that won&rsquo;t break the bank.

The Hawaiian burger is a real treat. Staff are always so friendly when we pick up our takeaway.

Loved the hand-painted art on the walls here. It&#39;s so detailed and really makes the place feel cosy and authentic. Just a lovely, warm spot to enjoy a meal.

Popped in for the 2-for-1 pizza deal. The mixed salami pizza was really solid, nice crispy base. Lasagne was decent too. Good for a casual bite, nothing fancy.

Decent lunch deal - pizza, salad and soup for a fair price. The pizza was a bit on the small side, but fine for a quick bite.
