Lovely wee place! Fantastic food and great service. It's got a great atmosphere with a lot of friendly people. Just be aware that it has a 'dress code'. No jogging bottoms or baseball caps... Basically if you look like you're going to the gym... Find somewhere else.

Visited here with friends sat 22 July. Bouncer at door very unpleasant. We got a table and when a friend arrived he was refused entry as he would be seen as bunking the q. Couldn't get the concept he wouldn't b bunking the q as we had already sourced a table. Barmaid very rude and sarcastic, seems these people need to go to charm school. Definitely won't be back. Avoid at all costs.

Had a few drinks during the two rugby matches on Saturday night 24/9/23, ordered a snack called the ' bureau chip' which was delicious ,flavoured and dressed with Thai curry and diced crispy chicken pieces, it was amazing just how tasty this simple food was . So tonight we'll try something else for dinner, the standard of food cooked in the bureau is now up at a very high level, try it if you don't believe me, complements to the chef and all staff, Uel

As it was Friday steak night I got a ribeye steak for 19.99 and my wife a beef burger. They were both amazing, very filling and the chips were hand made and delicious. I asked my ribeye rear, and for the first time in Ireland I had it rear! I was delighted about that. The pepper sauce was fantastic too. We indulged for a sticky toffee pudding and wow, melting in your mouth.

Was lovely sitting by the water sipping on a Guinness - the sound of the cars (at busy times) can be off-putting, but still is a nice place to relax. There are a few TV screens showing sports as well which is great. Staff are very friendly and welcoming, made sure that we were looked after. Prices are reasonable as well.

Sadly the Bureau is not the pleasant experience it used to be. We've been going for years and we understand that rising costs mean that changes have to be made. This means the front part of the restaurant is now closed off and the rear part is distinctly uninviting. We were the only two diners in at around 5.30 last night (4/1/23) and our meals took at least half an hour to arrive. The food was nice but my husband had been looking forward to his usual steak and it wasn't available on the very short menu. Unfortunately we've decided not to return until there are improvements. The Bureau is always advertised for its wonderful views but unless you sit outside, which is not an option in cold weather, then I'm afraid there's absolutely no view of the lough from downstairs. The restaurant upstairs which had the beautiful view has been closed for years. We won't be back until some crucial changes are made so we can return to our once favourite local restaurant.

Rang earlier to book for a party of 12 for food and to stay on for the smartphone quiz only to be told they DON'T do party's of 12 only 6!! I asked could we have two tables of 6 beside eachother to be told NO again as they are short staffed?! I understand if this was last minute and the restaurant was fully booked but i was giving them over 2 weeks notice. I really don't understand what is the difference of 12 people sitting together or spread around the restaurant? Surely its still the same amount of people to be served? I was Informed earlier that day that they where still very quiet that night too. This will be the last time I try to make a booking to support local. This establishments attitude leaves a lot to be desired, staff were rude and unhelpful on the phone, no wonder they are short staffed if that's how they speak to their customers!!!

Since lockdown, I have a real issue with rude staff and am not prepared to ignore it when paying for a service in an industry that is apparently struggling. Met at the front door by who I assume was the manager 'lisa', no polite request for a face mask, but instead a cheeky demand. But that's fair enough. However, my friend had just been handed a traybake at another local establishment (part of excellent customer service), "I'll take your rubbish off you" and when advised it wasn't rubbish "you can't bring your own food in here!", embarrassing him. As he's local I didn't want to embarrass him further by leaving. The rest of the staff were friendly and helpful, beer garden is good, rugby was on inside, and a decent selection of beers. But that initial incident would make me go elsewhere in future.

One of the worst takeaways to date , delivery won’t be long means over 2 hours and if you phone they lie to you , smallest portion of salt and chilli chicken ever 8 pieces not enough to justify the price , it arrived cold . No escuse weather was fine , roads clear not frosty seriously won’t be back they have lost our custom and our order wasn’t small avoid at all cost

I've been here before and it was honestly amazing, so I was shocked when I passed here today and saw.. it was all burnt to the ground and completely destroyed! The criminal who caused this should be ashamed of themselves for committing such acts. Let's hope that this business will rise from the ashes once again (I think it'll be rebuilt sometime soon) and that full support goes to the owners of this wonderful business.
