Cafe Q in Down

We took some friends here for breakfast. All were very impressed with the food and the service. My partner doesn't eat egg and they went out of their way to offer an alternative. Would highly recommend!

Pathetic place. Avoid at all costs. Staff are really poor and uneducated in customer service. They made an 80 year old couple wait 15 minutes outside in the cold for a table, and then a group of 3 20 year olds skipped the queue and then staff then said to them there is nothing can do when asked why they couldn’t take that table.

Dark, small and stuffy inside. Menu was average and food was acceptable but nothing special. Very limited dietary, vegan and vegetarian options and no willingness from kitchen staff to adapt items. Expensive. Have been twice but wouldn't go back as both visits disappointed. The takeaway service was a long wait, over 20 minutes .The only positive was the friendly waiting staff. McCarthy's across the road is far superior.

2 coffees, scone and tray bake £12.10, get the same down the road in Cafe Velo Killyleah for £8.25, need to review there prices, wouldn’t go back unfortunately as the food was decent.

Had a fab stop with my cycling club today. Lovely sheltered outside area with picnic tables. French toast, scrambled eggs & toast and omelettes were popular. Thanks guys 😋 Great service.

My husband & I had the pleasure of visiting Cafe Q today and it was a real treat. The cafe was spotless and plenty of hand sanitizer available. Service was good and the food was delicious. I had poached eggs avocado bacon on toasted sourdough bread and my hubby had pancakes. We enjoyed our visit and would recommend this lovely cafe

Super food super people and the best coffee in County Down. Great for a lunchtime break or family visit. Highly recommend

We called here for a coffee and a muffin before driving home. The coffee was delicious but the highlight was the blueberry muffin which we split between us. Normally when we split a muffin, it comes on one plate with a knife to cut it. Not here!!! The muffin was served nicely warmed, on 2 separate plates, sprinkled with icing sugar with a small, individual pot of cream and a fork to eat it. Beautiful presentation like this is what encourages customers to return. Next time we're near Crossgar, we'll have no hesitation in returning.

Great cafe on the Main Street. Friendly staff and speedy service. Good menu selection. Great value as well. Will return

This cafe is a wee gem if you get a chance to eat here. It’s always busy and has lovely friendly staff. The menu is mostly sandwiches/panini etc but there are also some lovely salads and they always have a homemade soup and stew on the go. Great value for money for a family eating out for lunch.

Great for breakfast / snacks and lunch. I've been often while cycling past. The service is always friendly and the food doesn't take long to arrive. Breakfasts aren't greasy in the slightest. The breakfast panini is a must try!

What can I say ,I’ve been a customer here for many years, and it never fails, it has maintain top quality from it opened its doors,and again on Sunday, it was just beautiful, beef was cooked perfectly,staff were on top form,many thanks again for a lovely experience

Had a large breakfast , set us up for the day , all fresh cooked was best fry up have had , just ordered Sunday dinner so looking forward to that

Decided on a lazy day so went out for a late breakfast. Ok it’s small but lovely atmosphere, made to feel very welcome on arrival. Great selection and choice of fare. I found it difficult to pass the fry which was outstanding. Nicely cooked and not swimming in grease. Better half had pancakes with bacon which was equally delicious. Great tasting coffee as well. Noticed that it does have special evenings with a guest chef of which testimonials where very positive. Definitely worth a repeat soon. Oh and prices very competitive.

Crossgar is a lovely little village with and excellent vintner and lots great shops but Café Q is worth going for alone. They do a fantastic fry with lovely big cups of tea and delicious cakes. The service is friendly without being intrusive and it's cosy interior is perfect for cold weather. We will definitely be visiting again!

Great atmosphere stopped in on Sunday for fry, staff were very attentive .Will be returning to try the rest of the menu out.

Love the breakfast menu at Café Q, Hugh and the team give great service and food always tastes fantastic! The take away coffee is always great!

The service and quality of food is excellent, the "fry" is highly recommended as are the scones and tray bakes.

All through our Northern Ireland holiday we had been looking forward to an 'Ulster Fry', which we had discovered on our last trip to NI. We treated ourselves to one the final morning of our holiday, which was just as well, otherwise we would have been heading to Cafe Q every morning, to the detriment of our arteries! Although they don't call their cooked breakfast an 'Ulster Fry', it came with the required fried soda bread and potato farls. We went for the 'Big Grill', which came with two of everything, apart from tomatoes and was utterly delicious. The sausages were of great quality, the bacon was nicely grilled, the eggs were just runny enough, but the stand out, for me, were the potato farls and fried soda bread. We also had coffee and tea to wash our breakfasts down with. The service was very good and the food came in good time. We didn't eat cake at that time of the morning, but the offerings in the big cake cabinet looked really interesting, mostly being small cakes, muffins and tray bakes, not huge cakes which can dry out once cut into. Everyone else in the place seemed really happy with their food and drink too. We would definitely recommend this for breakfast and I'm sure lunch and coffee and cake would be great there too.

This place is such a gem - whether popping in for coffee, stopping off for lunch or taking advantange of special dinner evenings you are sure to be pleased. The food is delicious and the dining area modern, comfortable and attractive. The prices are also reasonable and the staff couldn't do more for you.

Was in last week only getting to write this now, was served by a lovely young lady dark fair hair with glasses who couldn’t be any nicer and offered us great service! The food was at a high standard especially the warm chicken and bacon Caesar salad! Delicious! Will definitely be going back.

Our second visit to this small high street cafe/ coffee shop. It is friendly and clean with a good range of choices for lunch. We both had soup (Potato and leek) with wheaten bread. Very tasty, quick and friendly service and good value for money

Met my friend today at Cafe Q for a quick coffee and catch up. The coffee shop is immaculate, beautiful decor and lovely atmosphere.

Parked on main road, and called in for a Coffee to a busy Cafe Q Restaurant.Good service throughout and good Coffee.

Stoped by chance as my fav cafe was full.

My sister and I stopped in Crossgar at this small coffee shop/restaurant. It is clean and welcoming with friendly staff and is on the main road through the town. Quite a good range of choices. We both had toasties and tea which was served quickly and with a nice side salad. Very good value.

Wasn't quite sure what to except as just looked like coffee shop from outside. Was pleasantly surprised beautiful cosy and welcoming .menu had so much choice . I had open prawn salad which was amazing . Staff very pleasant ( if a bit slow with the coffees) nothing too much trouble. We will definitely be back.

What a delightful, friendly place with great staff serving excellent food. The quality of everything we tasted was first class. We will return when in the area.

Always have an amazing lunch here. Staff are so friendly and really make you feel welcome. Caesar salad is gorgeous, but everything on the menu is superb! And extremely reasonably priced! Well worth a visit!!!

I have had numerous lunches in Cafe Q,all the food has been freshly prepared on the premises.In the summertime I adore the Beetroot and Goats Cheese Salad,served with sun dried tomato bread.Winter time Hugh's soups are warm and welcoming with his signature wheaten bread.When you see the food that is coming out for all the diners,it is very substantial and is well presented.Very friendly staff,love it before we play golf on a Saturday for lunch.

Nice place to have breakfast, or quick lunch . Friendly staff , good food , relaxing atmosphere and nice clean place to eat .

We called here on Sunday at 11am. Greeted by a friendly young man and had a lovely fry. Nice clean modern cafe with excellent service and food. Well priced. Will return and recommend.

Just a quick coffee break and enjoyed a pleasant wee cafe.Will be back again for lunch, expansive menu.

After a poor experience nearby, cafe q welcomed us fantastically! Service was excellent, found 14 of us a chair and the host chocolate was to die for! Very reasonable and nothing was a bother to them

I was glad to get a seat and very happy with both the service and the food. Great value for money. A busy place but that can be expected when alls good.

This is a great little cafe - perfect for a good fry up or tasty lunch- portions are good and service excellent. Look forward to going back!

This cafe was picked as a second choice place to go and eat because our first choice was full! boy am i glad me and my friend went in!! The place looks nice and fresh, the staff are lovely and the food is great too!! I will be back for sure!

Really great café, very good food, well cooked and presented, very clean and bright, lovely staff. Had brunch there and it was just gorgeous.So nice to find an excellent café. Will return and highly recommend!!! Well done to all staff.

Had breakfast in Cafe Q last week and it was really good. It was beautifully cooked and well presented. Service was excellent. I will certainly return soon.

Have called here on several occasions, Panini and Sandwiches are imaginative with fresh and unusual ingredients .Coffees are great and the staff and the owner are very helpful and friendly .Great relaxed atmosphere , newspapers are provided so when we call we can catch up with current affairs and wile a away an hour no problem. Often call on my way through Crossgar , would recommend a visit

Great cafe in Crossgar. Excellent food and service. My only slight problem was that it was very small, but that has now been addressed with new, larger premises! Looking forward to calling in soon :-)

Cafe Q has just moved to new premises. Good selection on the menu and not too expensive. Well worth calling in.

This little cafe in Crossgar Main Street is quite pleasant for up market snacks. Totally lacking in warmth and atmosphere

Gorgeous Cafe with fantastic food! Have used Hugh to cater for a couple of functions- food is always outstanding. Love the soups - very original and unusual. Great to pop into for a cuppa and a bite to eat.

The food is always good in this place, plenty to choose from. Plenty of room in there new premises. Staff very helpful.

seen this gem of a place on passing through on our way to Carryduff. wow just wow. we were greeted by the freindly waitress . I ordered the pulled pork brushitta it's was delishious. the coffee was great too. we will definitely be back.

Had a beautiful lunch in Cafe Q. I had a southwest panini which was delicious and my mum had a panini with salami and onion marmalade which I tasted and can say was just as delicious. The pasta and coleslaw was the perfect accompaniment. The male waiter was so pleasant and whilst he was really busy, nothing was too much trouble for him. Definitely a great asset to Cafe Q!! I will definitely be back.

Myself and my partner had lunch here today. We arrived shortly before 12.00 and at 12.02 my partner tried to order a grill, however, the waitress rudely informed us that breakfast finished at 12.00!

We arrived a bit early and they were yet to open but less us in for a cuppa. The ladies serving were very friendly and polite. The food was fresh and well cooked. Muffins and scones were fresh and warm. Good came out in good time and was well really well presented too.

They have a wide selection of sandwiches and salads. The portions are big and the food is fresh and delicious! Coffee is good too.

Cafe q has very friendlystaff couldn't be more helpful. The food is delicious and always freshly made .

I called in here at lunch time and was not disappointed - will definitely be returning again when in the area. The menu has good choices and the staff are friendly which is probably why this place is usually busy.

The food in this place is amazing & reasonably priced. Good for meeting up with friends or bringing young children in for a treat

Would be a regular customer here,both sit in and take away. .it never fails..use the best of ingredients in all there dishes,staff are all wonderful

We were staying near Crossgar with friends and popped in for a lovely lunch. Our waitress was very sweet, and we were impressed with our food.

Cafe q is a lovely clean and friendly cafe. I love their panini's and the kids loves them too. They do sit in and take out which is really handy if your on the go 😃

My friend and I called into Café Q recently for a light lunch before heading off to do our Christmas shopping. We both ordered toasted sandwiches and couldn't believe the size of the sandwiches and the amount of filling - really enormous. They were served with crisps and a side salad which were really tasty. We will definitely call here again.

Have had lunch here, or just a snack many times. The food is always very good, the staff friendly and efficient and the owner/ chef always checks that you were happy with your meal. Would definitely recommend.

This café is a little gem. They serve both breakfast and lunch ranging from a healthy fry through to paninis, wraps, soups and stews. Their lattes are beautiful! All their dishes are excellent. The staff always have a smile on their face and are friendly. The prices are reasonable and carry out is available.
