carrickfergus golf club restaurant in Carrickfergus

Our first ever golf trip to Northern Ireland started at Carrickfergus Golf Club. A very warm welcome from Gary, the club pro who could not do enough for us. A short but challenging course with very good greens. Would recommend this to anyone visiting the area.

Fantastic compact 18 hole golf course greens were really well looked after as rest of the course was some quite challenging holes so very enjoyable. Also green fees were very reasonable.

Actually really good, nice amount of variety with water, elevation and trees, some tight t-shots that require thought, and greens were in excellent condition. Was £35 on GolfNow, which is good value these days compared to some. Only small complaint is that there are some congested t-boxes which play across each other, some brief delays but such a minor gripe. Overall would very much recommend.

I love coming here for lunch with the family.. food is delicious and portions are generous

Not much craic. Bar staff are very friendly.

Food was lovely, particularly impressed by fresh homemade chips, gorgeous. Good sized portions too 👍

Service is awful for getting something to eat, literally stood for 10 mins trying to get a hold of someone then a further 20 mins sitting there and had to go up to bar to ask for a server! Absolute joke

Food was lovely tonight. Well organised event and look forward to more in the future

Myself and family members had a beautiful meal this evening. Would highly recommend the 10 pound specials. Good value for money. Food was great 👍

Another amazing night at the golf club patsy cline Tom Jones etc etc just fantastic

Beautiful food. Good value menus. Friendly staff.

Really lovely place to eat out staff so friendly and the food is amazing 👏 definitely will be back

Most friendly golf club i have been in and to be a member off

Great golf club & fantastic food

Great place great service and fantastic food love it'

My first visit to Carrickfergus G.C. Very pleased with the course. Some tight fairways concentrates the mind as to club selection. Greens were true and overall a lovely course to play. 1st hole, dog leg right, plays over a ravine with a water fountain, nice touch.

First class meal served by Eileen very helpful. Flo at the bar was so hospitable and helpful definitely worth her weight in gold lovely lady

Fantastic service and great food

Had lunch with friends the staff are friendly and helpful great food and good value will be back

Excellent meal served by hard working waitress. Worth the visit

Fantastic...helpful staff...was ther for a funeral tea ...great peaceful settings ...good parking ...easy access onto main road

Steak was like chewing chewing gum.cover with tobacco onions on a large plate by its self. Waited about 10 mins for sponge and custard. Sponge was terrible, must have been made a day or 2 before . Custard was heated up from day before. My wife and myself when to cellebrite 53 years of marriage We will remember this one. TERRIBLE.

Low rating only because the restaurant had shut

Restaurant 4* food and service cant fault. The first and last time we wil be back though. The bar where we where seated is a different story , I never knew of no dress code untill i had to be asked to remove my cap and asked was my shirt a rangers shirt, , as no caps or football shirts where allowed I wasn't wearing a football top,even though the week before i was told united and liverpool was playing, and place had footy shirts both sides , her resopnse only special occasions then they can be wore ! Then while being showed the rules like a child some elderly rude women by the name of flo butted in , also remove your cap blood was boiling at this point , we where about to walk out but food arrived , felt like we where being looked upon the whole time , steer clear P.s flo think it's time to hang up the boots

1st class course with great hospitality and catering. Would thoroughly recommend to individuals and societies.

In on Sunday. Super cheap £12 Two courses you can either have a starter or desert with Main meal I went for veg soup starter and cod and chips main. Food was lovely great atmosphere. Carvery also Available. Nice location and views

One thing wrong nobody knows what is going on, are events on, don't know, can you book a table, don't know. They need to update their events and restaurant web site if they want to be considered a restaurant

Food beautiful, can't wait to go again

We were here for a fundraiser very friendly staff. Roast dinner was very nice and filling good value

Fantastic time was invited as a guest ,with my wife for Ladies Captains night,a night to remember ,the meal the bar ,and the service was second to none the staff so friendly , First class service from start to finish , highly recommend 🎖️🎖️🎖️🎖️🎖️

V good but for a few patchy greens

Club house staff friendly food very good. Course Greens and fairways good condition.

Nice restaurant and great service. Food was good 👍

Not a golfer. But food is good and staff are nice.

Great course with a good mix of difficulties. Very well maintained.

Lovely food,,,,lovely helpful staff

Food used to e amazing here when A and A catering done it. Havnt been in from the change of ownership

Well run excellent food at good orices

Just had a fantastic 3 course Christmas dinner here. Staff where really friendly and efficient. Will certainly be back again.

I'm hoping this was a one off as Carrick golf club was always a great place to go for a meal. But this night wasn't good. My son and I ordered steaks and chips my wife chicken and chips. Steaks were ok as was the chicken. The chips were like they had been cooked a dozen times worst I've ever had in any establishment. The place had a fee tables free so wasn't overly busy but we had to wait quite a while on our order being taken. And again our plates being cleared we had to wait ages for our bill seemed to me the staff hadn't been doing this for too long, even the chef came out of the kitchen to clarify something he didn't look happy. Sorry C.G.C but won't be returning.

Gorgeous food and great service, will definitely be back

Called in on spec when we were in carrickfergus for the day lovely suprise to see our old Chef from Tandragee David food was great as always,highly recommended,thanks

Well kept challenging course, nice food in club house.

First visit Had food very good an bar prices really reasonable.

Great food the stakes are very good great staff and good prices will be back soon from Wales Thanks to you all

Course wet in places, greens soft and slow, some greens bare on edges just flattened soil. Greens are true enough but you need to hit the putts. Balls plugging on fairways after a few days of rain. So soggy in places and generally soft with little run. Course good enough lay out.

The food was lovely, always a nice meal, staff are lovely and go out of there way to help. The views over the golf course are breathtaking.

Well matured well looked after course. Greens always in fantastic order but its a straight hitters dream thanks to the many trees. Good test of golf. Friendly welcome awaits in clubhouse and food is excellent

Gd food, reasonable prices, lovely atmosphere win win well worth a visit!!

Absolutely fantastic beautiful meal and lovely people who served us thank you all would recommend it 2 everyone 5 out of 5 xx

Very good order for early season golf .Should be on top nick at the height of the season😁

Had a fantastic meal here with some friends, staff brilliant and then we did some dancing with Brian Horner playing, great day.

Great meal. Great atmosphere. Of course I'm a member so a little biased.

Great club, good course and a very good restaurant. Well worth the journey.

We were taken at very short notice on Saturday night as we were let down by another establishment. The food was great, steak cooked to perfection and service was great too, especially as we arrived after last orders. We also couldn't believe the value of the meal, we will definitely be back!

We envited friends for dinner at the club our meal was excellent as was the service as it was first time for our friends we were delighted when they said they poked fortto next visit. Thanks to all.

Great food and friendly people.

As a regular I have dined here over the past few years..the food was always excellent ...better than excellent with chef Andrew but since the new caterers took over it’s dreadful....very bland cafe type food....this is obvious in the empty tables on weekends...steaks are tiny...mushrooms seem to be cooked in margarine....I think the chef needs to watch James Martin on a Saturday morning to understand how important butter is in a kitchen...we are more than disappointed in the golf club as it was a very convenient place for us to dine in and meet friends.

First class meals available and friendly bar staff

Food was really good and the staff were excellent, they were friendly, professional and efficient

Fantastic very welcoming club. Hihgly recommend to anyone

Try their restaurant, top class quality food.

Warm welcome from the owner of the restaurant and no request too small. Food was delicious and plenty of it. No one will leave hungry I can assure you!

Christmas dinner.big crowd.everything great.service excellent.

Had a good round of golf,plus the food is brilliant plus a great bar for a drink.

Friendly staff, good food, and decent drink, nicely layed out course if your a golfer,

Great club, great course, great food.

Never had a meal like it fantastic will be back

Lovely meals, coffee, drinks etc

Was here last night for a birthday dinner food was gorgeous i can recommend the hake i also had two young children with me and staff where brilliant with them and very patient would definitely recommend and will be going again

We took the family out for a birthday meal at the restaurant, the food was outstanding and being gluten intolerant it’s hard to find a good place to eat out , well the chefs gluten free options was beautiful, we will definitely be back again soon , and the staff couldn’t do enough for you , thank you’s for a great night

Golf course not as good as it used to be. Catering still very good!

Great friendly and welcoming service.Good portioned meals,your typical sports club food,and very reasonably priced.My only complaint would be the coffee,it was horrible.

There has been a change of management and chef and the food is now very disappointing. Three of us ate here and had three different meals. All very disappointed. Even the chips were not nice.

First meal with friends Fri ngt since the new caterers joined us and we not dispointed also Sunday carvery with the dambusters President day outing excellent

First time there since being taken over and have to say food was delicious portions good and price hasnt changed much. Few things changed n taken of menu but overall a great place still. Will def be back

Wasn't at all apprehensive about coming here after learning the catering staff had changed hands but I'm sorry to say I was very disappointed. The menu didn't have half of the variety as the last one and the food just wasn't up to par (pun intended). We both had the 10oz ribeye (looked quite small to me) to be cooked medium well, they came well done. The chunky chips were ends of chips that must have been cooked several times as they were stale, and came with two button mushrooms and one onion ring, the sauce comes in a ramekin and we had to ask for another, also asked for veg and I still left hungry but I wasn't ordering a dessert as I felt we had just already wasted £16.95 each on the main. This was the best place for food in carrickfergus but sadly I can't say that now. On the upside, our server was a lovely chatty young girl who had asked if we had been coming for a while before the take over and we told her we had and always recommended it to friends and family. On this occasion I had to tell my sisters that they wouldn't like it anymore as it has changed completely in my book

Great golf Great food Great crack

The club has just changed it's catering staff and they will have the opportunity to take the menu in a modern direction once the ever publish it.

Brilliant golf course. Excellent food.

Heard the catering staff had changed and worried the standards had changed. It hadn't four of the party had surf and turf all four declared steaks were perfectly cooked to each persons requirements. , one had a delicious beef burger which was rated outstanding by a burger connoisseur 16 year old and the one child in group had lurverly chicken gougons. Nobody rushed us and we had a lovely evening. Thank you staff and chef

Should be closed and turned into a park for everyone to enjoy

Course very soft due to heavy rain on Friday.Catering first class best golfers fry in Ireland.

A great social club, with a nice restaurant, and a nice course to play

Friendly atmosphere .Bar service with a smile and really good food.Golf course a bit wet at the moment.Looking forward to summer conditions Watch out for the first tee ,shoot over the water to a lovely par 4 green.Some short par 3s for the high handicapper.Shoot over or around the mound on the 16th for an interesting second shot to the green ,making sure to avoid running of the left side into the water.Very enjoyable course with little or no hills.

Its was ok a bit noisey and very slow

staff very efficient wecoming food georgous attmosphere luvly

Food was excellent but dining room a bit lacking in atmosphere.... Service was probably the best I've every had the staff were so nice & helpful

Had my mother's 70th birthday dinner here and the evening was a success. The food was delicious, well presented and arrived on time. The children's meals were substantial with a good variety. Wine menu had a good selection at reasonable prices. The staff were brilliant and coped very well considering they had 3 birthday parties and other diners to contend with. The restaurant manager was particularly helpful in organising the birthday celebrations. Would certainly dine at the restaurant again.

Really nice atmosphere. Lovely food and lovely staff.

Best food in town... Great club...

My friends and I went for my birthday a few weeks back. It was so delicious that there was hardly a crumb left on the plates. Would highly recommend it. Service was great also.

Excellent for large group family buffet

Absolute 5 star quality and service at carrickfergus golf club yesterday. Fast, efficient, friendly staff. The best place to go if you want that Christmas feeling. Xx

Fantastic dining. Delicious food. Clean plate every time. From the mushroom starters , to the trio of meats main course.. Cannot fault any of it. And good large portions aswell. Highly recommended.

Lovely relaxed Sunday lunch enjoyed by my family.
