Called in here for dinner with family... I ordered lasagne... sorry no can do! So then I swapped to cod ... no can do soni ended upoptinf for curry. We waited for over an hour for curry a burger and fajitas. In between times we reckon my curry arrived from the Chinese! The girl that served us was lovely but felt like a step back to the '80's

La variedad de patatas fueron un auténtico lujo: patatas marinado en leche antes de tostar. . . delicioso! Patatas fritas de camote y patatas fritas (crujientes por fuera y suaves en el medio). . . fritas riquísimas! Nos habían dicho sobre los filetes, así que pedimos con antelación y fueron fantásticos!

Les bieres sont excellentes, les personnes sont aimables et accueillantes. Un vrai pub nord irlandais.

Vimos este Bistro a través de Tripadvisor y pensamos en probar que estuvimos cerca. No reservamos y cenamos en la zona de arriba (no hay ascensor), sin embargo podíamos haber comido por las escaleras si nos arrepentimos. Gran servicio de atención al cliente de la señorita, entrantes y platos principales estaban calientes, de buena calidad y a un precio razonable. Crítica constructiva, sustituir el derrame de plástico resistentes revestimientos mesa recubiertos con manteles (a mi punto, pueden adaptarse a otros).

El restaurante es de continuar a ofrecer comida de calidad y precios. familia Yo comer regularmente en lugares caros en Dublín, y tengo que decir que si la vaca marrón estaba en Dublín que Bistro sería colas alrededor de la manzana. Yo tenía un bistec que era deliciosa, yo no sabía lo que quería, así que la salsa camarera me tanto sin ningún cargo adicional. El servicio es muy amable y la comida es estupenda. Cuando tan solo esa sensación de que un montón de orgullo se ha tomado para preparar una buena comida y conseguir que fuera caliente y con buena presentación. El Brown Cow Bistro es una verdadera joya escondida. Volveremos una y otra vez.

Mi pareja y yo reservamos una mesa para una comida. Nos quedamos muy sorprendidos de que el restaurante estaba vacío. Pedimos nuestras comidas y cuando fueron traídas a nosotros no nos decepcionó. Carnes cocinadas a la perfección y los lados estaban deliciosos. Una pareja joven llegó un poco más tarde para cenar.

Hemos disfrutado de una comida deliciosa en el Brown Cow y no podía esperar a revisión! No hemos estado en el bistro en unos pocos años y, después de leer las críticas, decidimos intentarlo. Y estoy muy contenta de haberlo hecho!

In response to the review 'give it up, don't bother, I would say don't bother taking any heed of this review, it is true u can't please everyone but given there are numerous reviews about this restaurant that says the complete opposite, what does that tell u folks!! The staff ARE pleasant and it would be ideal if the restaurant opened more nights in the week, I am a fussy eater and believe me the food is as fresh as the day is long, make up your own mind folks by paying the brown cow a visit, you WONT be disappointed!!

Visited the Brown Cow Bistro today for Sunday Dinner. 2 courses for £9.95 or 3 courses for £12.95. We both had pate to start and turkey and ham dinner for main. The pate was served with toast and a lovely Cumberland sauce-this was all delicious! The turkey dinner came well presented, served with veg, mash & a roast potato. This too was a delicious meal. My partner also had room for homemade apple pie, served with custard. He said it was lovely. All in all, we were very impressed with our lovely meal. It was great value and the staff were friendly & efficient. Highly recommended!!

The Brown Cow used to serve great food when Kenny was the Chef it did really good steaks and the place was buzzing. It has been run to the ground by poor food and waiting staff. its only open Thur Fri and Sat now and I assume the food just lies in the fridge during the week. The owner looks surly and very customer unfriendly. Atmosphere is poor. Like the bar downstairs its clearly in need of new owners. and some radical rethinking.

My Wife and I went out to the Brown Cow a couple of weeks ago to try their food out.We were not disappointed by the menu or the food.I had the usual steak pie and chips and I must say that there are many eating places in Carrickfergus who could take a leaf out of the Brown Cows menu and make great home made chips instead of the jumbo tasteless chips that they serve.My wife had some kind of chicken and pasta dish and she said it was beautiful.We will go back as the food was lovely and the waiting staff were very friendly.

Restaurant is upstairs above the pub. Nice decor and atmosphere. Staff extremely pleasant and helpful. Steak seems to be the specialty here and they do it really well. Fish dishes are good too and some nice old school specials on the board also. Well done folks and well definately be back.

Have eaten here a few Thursday nights for the steak deal (fabulous deal), thought we would try Sunday lunch.The choice was great and the meal was delicious,why would you make it yourself!! 2 courses only £9.95 and 3 courses £12.95 it's excellent value for money and living in the woodburn area we can walk there and back, no need for taxi's. We would definitely recommend.

The brown cow is a fabulous place to go and have either a few pints or a full family dinner. it has excellent private rooms for parties and functions. The staff were really friendly and went above and beyond to cater to our needs which was a large birthday party that had adults as well as several young children. the food was just gorgeous and the value for money was great. you got so much for what you paid for. location wise, it can be a bit easy to miss on the road but if you find yourselves there, consider yourselves lucky as it is a brilliant place to go.

Visited this bistro several times and have never been disappointed. Have tried several dishes from the menu and each one was absolutely beautiful. Ambience 'spot on', staff very friendly and knowledgeable about the food. Restrooms spotless. Jukebox in bar downstairs if u fancy a boogie after the meal. I have no hesitation in giving this bistro 5 stars out of 5. Annette and Ricky.

Eat at this establishment at least once a week. Had the 2 course Sunday dinner last week for £9.99. Really worth the money. The toast beef was gorgeous and my partner enjoyed the stuffed pork. Would definitely return here for Sunday dinner! Have also had their chicken goujons & the chips are to die for mmmm!! All in all, a great place to eat, with lovely staff and great prices.

We had a girls night out a few weeks ago, we had a lovely meal upstairs in the Bistro. The food was really nice, and the service was great. The Brown Cow sent us a Menu and we pre-ordered our food. Worked out really well and we sat in the private room off the main restaurant. highly recommend this hidden gem

This place is bigger inside than it looks from the outside - lovely meal upstairs and then downstairs to enjoy some live music on a Friday night.
