Brooklyn Bay Diner in Larne

Used to love this place, was here last Sunday had to send the ribs back and the second time the same issue the meat had to be chewed off the bone and there wasn't much meat paying £22 for a rack of ribs come on. Really has skimped on quality meat. You know the place is going down hill when the cardboard menus have the same bbq stains + tears on them from a year ago. Place needs a good shake up.

Slow service and food wasn't warm and it wasn't busy.

Never fails to please. Great service and food..

Friendly staff and the food always hits the spot.

On a welding job at Carrickfergus, wot you see in the pics , 3 meals 3 drinks + sides came £27 , it was a 50% off deal , you can't complain at the price at all , the food was served warm , which I personally don't like , the service was fantastic lovely girl who took are order x , overall we would return because of the price , because I was paying x

Me and my fiancée are going there on the 24th of November for her birthday she’s never been I’ve been several times food is great and service is outstanding hey @brooklyn bay any chance of doing something for my fiancée moved from wales to ni to be with me to me that’s love

We regularly go here for a bite. You have your diner style booths and though the menu has shrunk of late, there's still something to tempt the taste buds and the occasional special offer. The Strawberry milkshake was scrummy. Breakfast is great too.

Visited today for lunch and it was absolutely fabulous. Service was brilliant. Gonzalez (I hope that’s spelt correctly) was so helpful and very friendly with my 11 month old daughter who just wanted to play with his jacket😂 would highly recommend!!

Nice place to eat tasty food. All the waiters are very kind!

Great service last night. Thank you all so much x

Food was delicious and it's really easy access if you're going on/off the ferry. Reasonably priced as well.

Ordered what was technically a side order and it was basically a full meal. So good. Service also great. Wee boy who served us so pleasant

First time at brooklyn Bay... Brilliant food... Brilliant service. Staff very pleasant. And just made you feel at home... The staff have been well trained... I personally thought it was definitely value for money... And will certainly be back for more...well done brooklyn.. .

Great food and range from the menu. Lighting outside wasn’t working so car park was very dark

Had one the best Fry's ever today , mega fry but the soda beat me , all in it's a 16 piece

Wouldn't be in a rush back. Got the Mexican Burrito, states mexican rice, pulled pork etc - pork was one lump, shoved down one end of the burrito, rice was plain white rice, not a hint of 'mexican' about it, set half of it aside as it was flavourless, partner had chicken tenders which despite it only being lunch time had the dryness of being left under a heat lamp too long.

Truly amazing nothing else to say staff super

Good food, decent service, nice American diner style decor.

Go hungry...portions are huge!!!

Great food as always as well as staff and atmosphere!

This is an American diner themed greasy-spoon restaurant. It's the usual burger and fries joint. The best thing about it is that it is 2 minutes drive to the Craigryan ferry, so a good place to pause if you are early. The hot chocolates are very good. The garlic-chilli curly fries are very greasy with almost no discernable garlic or chilli. Probably best not eaten before a rough crossing.

Food was delicious and reasonably priced.

Popped in on the off chance as was close by, great atmosphere and the food was ok. The guy who served us was friendly and very helpful. The kids really enjoyed it

Staff were very helpful and friendly

Had a great Irish breakfast. Good parking if you’re in a caravan.

Not that great off a taste, people are nice but the food was a little disappointing

American themed, the portions are BIG. The service is relaxed but good. You can can see clearly into the kitchen, which I think is always a good sign. Parking outside is free.

Professionally run, well presented and most importantly friendly place to eat with good food. If Carlsberg made diners… Special thanks to our waitress Katie for polite and efficient service

Lovely meal and perfect service, enjoyed the atmosphere. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic food very nice happy service.. We will be back.. I had.. WOLF PACK 17.99 (Where it all started 2008) Char grilled juicy Wagyu beef burger, honey chilli crispy battered chicken strips, BBQ beef brisket, chilli Jack cheese, smoked red pepper mayo, beer battered onion rings, served with garlic & chilli curly fries... This burger is unreal it's a must...thank you.

Food is decent. I had sirloin medium well and it was rare mostly which is not a big deal for me as I don't mind rare. My wife however had medium but it arrived as well done. My daughter's burger came out very dry. It must have been a very lean burger or it was overcooked but it was not the quality you would expect from a restaurant. Staff were super nice and helpful.

Came into Brooklyn Bay Diner at 7.20pm on the 12th of July, guy told me to take a seat at the front of the bar area , watched him waltz up and down past me loads of time , waited 10 minutes still didn’t come to get me seated . Then 2 families arrived in through the door and he immediately approached them and took them to a seat ! Sorry but I was made to feel insignificant and insulted at that time , that I will not be back !

Visited recently for breakfast and it was absolutely delicious. Service was fantastic and prices were good for the amount of food we had!

The food is okay, but waiting an hour for it is not okay.

Stopped here before getting a ferry, the best place we've visited. The staff were so welcoming and polite and the food was amazing, we had the breakfast brunch and very good value for money. We will be making this our start and finish place on our next visit to Ireland.

Very nice breakfast French toast and bacon was delicious Our waiter was very pleasant and efficient. I didn’t get his name but he had a blond tip in his hair. He was great. Food arrived quickly only criticism was it could have been even a little hotter but apart from that it was nice and a reasonable cost

Extremely poor, actually sh1t. Save your money, has went to the dogs. Even the seat across was destroyed and not fixed. Rubbish waste of money

Delicious as always drive an hour to get here worth it!

Excellent service good portions and very friendly staff

food and staff, absolutely unreal

Great food great place and great people but bad service all out orders were wrong

Never had a small portion or a bad meal. Staff can be extremely attentive or sometimes not found, but food comes out quickly either way

Excellent food , and service was extremely pleasant. 👌

Plates of food were enormous. Really tasty American style food, we had the New Tex Mex which had some of the best beef brisket I've tasted, along with big chicken tenders and loads of other stuff. The salt and chilli curly fries were amazing.

My family member and I decided to call her for something to eat. We were taken to a table which we had to move from as it was so wobbly. After being given the menus we had such a long wait before anyone came to us before taking our order. The drinks came quite a while before the food. I ordered the fish and instead of chunky chips I asked for the garlic coated potato cubes. I also asked for coleslaw instead of tartar sauce. My family member asked for the loaded dinersaur. The drinks was a glass of diet coke and an americano. When the food came what a disappointment. I had no coleslaw and had to ask for it only to get a tiny container. Also the fish batter was overdone and extremely greasy. Also the garlic potato cubes were overdone and could hardly have been ate. My family member's meal was also disappointing. There was supposed to be honey crispy chicken but it was cut into such small bits it was so hard to see. It was the same with the potato wedges. It also was to come with crispy onions but all it was was a pile of tobacco onions set on the top of it. It was also covered in too much sauce. I had eaten about nearly 2/3 of mine when I saw a black hair on my plate and the fish touching it. That was enough, I felt sick after that and couldn't eat anything else. We called a staff member and pointed it to him. He just said "Oh sorry, do you want anything else?" Of course I wanted nothing else. He just took the plates away. We went to pay and nothing was said about the hair. Price was atrocious. £3.49 for a small glass of diet coke - only about the amount in a can. We will never be back there again. I have nothing good to say about here or the food.

Called in Sunday 14th May 23, and enjoyed every mouthful. Got the chicken curry on a bed of fried rice, with garlic, chilli curly fries, the wife got lasagna, both came with garlic bread. Really tasty, chicken very tender, and lightly battered, curry on the money. Difinetly a return visit. Yip was there Sunday, 5th May and once again a great feed, had to ask for a takeaway box. Ordered the stuntman, and was not disappointed, tender chicken in a light batter, served on a bed of noodles, with bacon on top, and a bowl of fries.

Waited half an hour for a burger which ran through me later on

I didn't particularly enjoy my meal. It was a take ridiculous American food and seemed a little over done. However. Our waiter was hands down the nicest human I've met in awhile. So if you poke your head in here, I expect you'll be well looked after.

A very well priced proper diner to wait for the ferry!

I've never tasted anything as gorjus as this place, the food is out of this world and I came all the way from Belfast.. Highly highly recommend, the staff are lovely and so welcoming.. Defo be back again.... Yeeeoooo up the harbour rats lol lol

none food was tasteless wouldn’t recommend

St Patricks Stack was awesome pic doesn't do justice

Breakfast of lunches, great selection, brilliant food.

Massive breakfast very nice and fresh.

We love Brooklyn Bay! The menu has a wide selection of classic diner favourites. The portion sizes are generous and the flavours are spot on! We really enjoyed the cocktails, and the Mother's Day special menu. The service is always excellent. A great stop before or after watching a movie at the Omniplex.

Such a breakfast. Staff are amazing.

Love this place.. food was yummy...staff are great.

Busy American style dinner. There is a large free car park outside the restaurant. Large choice of Southern American style food on the menu. Staff were decent and the food was very reasonably priced.

Nice quiet atmosphere and massive portions of good food.

Despite living locally I hadn’t visited here for a long time due to previous poor experiences, however we called in after the cinema on a Sunday afternoon and the restaurant was very quiet. The menu has significantly reduced (which isn’t a bad thing) but the prices have really increased and unfortunately I just don’t think it’s worth it. We chose a burger, salt and chilli chicken and kids nuggets (which are actually goujons). The food was hot and nice enough however, it is just over hyped deep fried frozen food and at around £17,99 for a main I doubt I’ll be rushing back.

Great service and great food. Pleasant and great family atmosphere.

Lovely place to eat , the portions are really big , my husband and I enjoyed it

Always a firm favorite in our house

Absolutely delicious food and fantastic service mega sizzler is a must have

Lovely food and plenty of it, portions are massive

Great food and service at reasonable prices

Cold restaurant and unfortunately cold food. This was disappointing.

Called to book a table for xmas eve and was told they weren't taking bookings and just to turn up and wait for a table Arrived on Xmas eve at 4.05pm only to be told they stopped serving at 4pm. Nice one Brooklyn Bay.

Amazing restaurant, food was delicious and well cooked, pricing wise, some things could have been cheaper for what they were but other things are a great deal.

Good food at a reasonable price , and good service.

Used to love this place, but hadn't been in a while. Went last week as it was my birthday. Will be my last visit. The Captain Jack burger has been removed from the menu, so went for the St Louis Steak Sandwich, medium well. The first piece was fine the next were raw, sent it back, by the time a new one came out the family had ate theirs, despite being hungry I just couldn't eat the second one, still raw bits of steak in it. Won't be back.

Food was good but staff is really so rude teenager girls staff they even don’t know how to treat customers really so rude teenager girls staff with very bad attitude worst experience with bad attitude staff I would not recommend this place just because of the bad attitude of staff

Good fill yer belly portions, tasty food. Toilets r spotless N quirky.

We ate here for lunch after a trip to Carnfunnock and were seriously not impressed. The prices for food for that type of restaurant were extortionate so we were expecting the food to be really good, but it was far from it. My husband had the burger off the Halloween specials menu, and the kids had burger and chips off the kids menu and all the burgers were so dry. I had the creamy chicken pasta dish and it was completely tasteless along with bad cuts of chicken throughout it. We’re just back from a weekend in London where we had a much nicer meal for much cheaper. I understand there is a cost of living issue at the moment and the hospitality industry is particularly hard hit by this, but Brooklyn Bay need to seriously reconsider their prices if a restaurant in Covent Garden is able to produce a better meal at a much cheaper price than a diner in Larne! The one star is for the service as the young guy who served us was super friendly and can’t be faulted.

Love Brooklyn Bay. Food is lovely and big portions for not so big a price. Staff very friendly.

We had 3 mega frys to carry out, no toast , bacon seemed on the verge of being off , not cooked properly , burnt tomato, very disappointed

First time in this morning for breakfast monster soda probably best soda ever experienced 👌 quality, quantity and presentation excellent, will be back.

Went there yesterday for my son's birthday meal, he was happy with his food and the rest of the family too.

Good value, pleasant staff, great food

Great food and really friendly staff!

Big portions, value for money. Very clean, well maintained toilets. All good!

Best meal had in long time was so gd

Lovely food but unfortunately we were left waiting and waiting and they didn't lift our dinner plates and offer us dessert so we paid and left.

Please stop serving the food in bowls and adding noodles to everything!!

Been going for year now went a week ago they have changed the kid's pizza and the meal that me and my wife had, has went up in price by 5 pound coke is now 4 pound we would b back

My teenage children love coming here. The food is excellent

The food here was amazing, the service was incredible. All in all it was a great experience to eat in an American style diner.

Friendly staff. Food was amazing!

We always have a great experience here, staff are always pleasant and service is always quick.

Great place for food lover. Food was great ! Lovely place neat and clean.

We went here for dinner on the 11th night expecting it to be either really quiet or closing early but it wasn't either. Food is always good when we go here and the staff are always happy.

A great diner good menu and there sirloin steak really good. 👌

First time trying the breakfast menu, had the pancake tacos, was unusual wasn't sure about the hot sauce and syrup but massive portions. Good value esp nowdays. Food came quickly too

Burnt and I assume re heated Garlic bites and tough chewy overcooked chicken burger …. Slow service three chefs in the kitchen we could see on a go slow…. Restaurant was not busy - Plastic tubs with cooked chips etc sitting under the hot lamps so not cooked fresh to order And frozen onion rings on top of the chicken burger - no effort to make them fresh …. Hopefully an off night but won’t be rushing back sadly

Fantastic food, friendly, helpful staff. Good size portions. Good price. Extremely happy 😊

Always excellent food and service, great portions too

Brilliant place quick service and great food in large portions

I got a very small portion of lasagne, could of passed for a kids meal, staff kept rushing the grandchildren by asking if everyone was finished their meal 3 times when it was obvious we hadn't.

Really good food in a big restaurant, family were happy. Bit expensive but would return Returned twice lately and the food is still good quality. Sadly they removed the mixed grill from the menu but understandable with prices nowadays. Staff always accomodating

A relaxed atmosphere and food was delicious.
