We were able to call in for a couple of meals during our recent visit to Larne. Yes, the décor is still minimal and it definitely doesn't feel like a luxury visit, but the food is fantastic and the service was great. Roast Featherblade of Beef was my choice on my first visit and then Seafood Chowder on my second. Both dishes were well presented and full of flavour. The restaurant was full that second evening ahead of the now already iconic Larne football match in the UEFA Conference, so there was a great atmosphere and we were lucky to get a table. The menu is varied and the prices are great. Thank you, Chekkers, for the warm welcome and for doing what you have always done.

Great place discovered early in the evening, a bit by chance, during our climb to Ballycastle. Well we were, because this pub-restaurant pleasantly surprised us and we were warmly welcomed! And chef Paul's dishes are simply, but deliciously, prepared! If you are in the area of ​​Larne, don't hesitate to take a detour to have a good pint or eat some good food!....or both!!!

Appearances can be deceiving! Some of the best food in town is served here. Never disappointing, no matter what we order. My favourite is the schnitzel, and the pepper sauce is divine. Service is absolutely fantastic. Great selection of drinks in a well stocked bar, plus a cocktail menu. There's often djs or live music at the weekends, great craic.

I always visit this place whenever I'm in Larne. The welcome and service are always warm and friendly. The food, both in quality and quantity, is always fantastic. This time I was in with friends and the bar had only just opened. We wanted something before we headed off to the airport. The owner welcomed us in, sat us next to the open fire and served us promptly. Well done to both front and back of house staff.

With its less than appealing decor, the food speaks volumes. I can honestly say this is the best meal I’ve had for a while. Although we only opted for a Sunday lunch, presentation & taste was amazing. I will be back here very soon. A lick of paint and a wee freshen up, this place would appeal to more. Food is top class Well done chef!

We recently visited larne and called in here for food, really nice little place in the town centre. Couldn’t get over the prices of the food, so cheap and reasonably priced especially when the food is such good quality. My dad got a burger, mum, the turkey ham, partner roast beef and myself the fish. All really good portion sizes and really tasty. We will definitely be back. The staff were really friendly too :)

The service was was excellent and so were the drinks. The chicken snitchzel that I ordered was fresh and cooked to order. My only criticism would be using fish batter for breaded fish on chicken. That was definitely a first for me, because I thought chicken snitchzel was coated in breadcrumbs. However, apart from my meal my friend enjoyed the burger.

HOWEVER........ we had such an unpleasant experience with another guest(who said that he was the owner ( Tony) who was the rudest and most foul-mouthed person, who basically said we never are allowed to return. the reason for him was , because we had asked if his partner could hold a cigarette outside to the other side of us whilst we are lunching. she was very polite and did . he however , was NOT....shame , i won't come again !

Was in Checkers last Thursday afternoon for some grub, as its been a long time since back in Larne and had good memories of this place when I was younger and living there. NOW..OMG what has happened. I've seen better eat outs in Nigeria. Place is disgusting, Dark, dreary, tatty, grubby, smelly, and generally as run down as any hovel. OMG the Mens Lavatory is over running with dirt and urine, toilet seat is hanging off by both hinges. The smell of urine almost made me gag (thank god I went after the meal. The meal, o Jesus suffering. Just basically slop on a plate. Just horrible. Never again. Honestly cant fathom how this place is still operating. Needs completely gutted to the bare shell. Or just closed. How the hell this place get good reviews is beyond my comprehension. Place is an absolute embarrassment. For goodness sake sort it out people.

its been some time since we last ate in Checkers but it used to be ok. Our last visit we had to wait for the upstairs eating area to open so we decided to have a drink in the main bar. What a mistake. The decor was seriously tatty and apart from the several men around the bar, on the seat beside us there was a man running a gambling book. This was all off putting so we decided to finish our drink and move on. Before leaving I visited the gents. OMG, the stench almost made me throw up. I could not wait to get out and most certainly will never be in that pub again. It may have changed but I doubt it. Only way they can attack people like me from outside the Larne area is to do some promotional advertising and convince us it has greatly improved.

Shared two very tasty starters between six. Followed up with smoked cod, mash and creamed leeks. This was a stand out dish for me. Other dishes within our party were greatly appreciated too. Chocolate brownie and sticky toffee pudding were shared desserts. These were both rich and tasty. There is a discount on a Monday night. Very pleasant service. Wine is by the glass or the bottle. Disappointing sparkling wine selection however. Either frizzante or something far more expensive. Not quite the right balance. Nevertheless we had a very impressive dining experience.

Put it in your diary - Thursday night is steak night in Chekkers Larne because you won't find better value anywhere! £9.99 for a huge steak, mushrooms and onions and a choice of chips. PLUS a free glass of vino! You couldn't buy the ingredients and cook it yourself for less never mind the free vino. To be honest I thought at £9.99 it would be tiny portions - wrong there was loads. I also wondered if it would be terrible quality - wrong again it was terrific. I have told everyone in work today about it and they don't believe me so chekk it out for yourself!!!

This place was recommended to us by our accomodation owner.We were there on wednesday - and it is the day that you get free dessert with main meal. Recently I am not huge fan of meat dishes - but this place offered few vegetarian dishes. I got thai veg curry with rice and pavlova for dessert. Unfortunately there was no alcoholic ginger beer available so I just stayed with tap water. Thai curry was very tasty - not too spicy. Unfortunately I am the master of Pavlova's as I often prepare them at home. And this pavlova was acceptable but... not so amazing to say "wow". I have to mention that my friends ordered sticky toffee puddings which looked lush (and looked at their faces it tasted the same) - so the next time - I would go with this one.For my meal - main and dessert - I paid...... 7 pounds. Great value!

Premetto che ho mangiato abbastanza bene in questo ristorante, senza spendere una cifra folle. Tuttavia non è decisamente ciò che mi aspettavo da un locale che si definisce wine-bar. E' un locale senza fronzoli, tipicamente irlandese e per nulla fancy. Il menù è abbastanza vario e si può scegliere tra un'ampia varietà di piatti. L'aspetto generale del locale non dà l'impressione di cura ma ciò non ha influito sulla qualità generale della cena.

Checker, AKA the Wine Bar, was a very good place for dinner and a beer. Although not the fault of the establishment, i sat at the bar next to a drunken co-ed and her grandmother who was also drunk. They were both entertaining and harmless. The service was excellent, and the food good. When i went off to find a club, the waitress offered to walk me through the neighborhood in which I was about to embark. That was a good offer, as the area outside of the main drag was a little sketchy. Both bartenders and the server who did clean up were great.

My husband and I would frequent Steak Night at the Wine Bar fairly often and have never been disappointed. However I felt compelled to write this review because of my experience last Thursday night. I had a look over the comprehensive menu as well as the steak menu and decided I fancied a Thai Beef Curry which was not on the menu. Spoke to our lovely waitress Nicky, who had a word with the excellent chef and was told no problem at all. It was absolutely delicious, loads of really tender beef with a varied selection of veg throughout the curry, and a more than ample serving. It is an absolute delight that in this day and age Chekkars staff was prepared to go that extra mile and I thoroughly recommend this gem of a place and a huge thanks to the delightful staff.

This restaurant is quite clean in the eating area, the toilets are a bit on the unclean side. The food is very good and the prices are very reasonable. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and it's a place I've been too many times. The decor inside could be brightened up but overall had a good experience and one staff member who gives excellent customer services and is very friendly is Colin , he makes you feel welcomed and tends your every need.

Went here on a Saturday evening with the partner and her mother, to start with, nice venue but poorly finished, exposed walls, cracks, dust and cobwebs around the doors, but hey the foods good right? Unfortunately on this occasion it wasn't, sat menus given drinks ordered, drink arrives food ordered at timely and professional standard then 30 minutes later the partner asks at the bar if there is a problem with our food only to be told well there is that large party behind you were in first... Waited another 15 minutes before food arrived. The "large" party was a 12, I don't feel that 45minutes wait as 12 people ahead is appropriate, and without apologies was insulting. So food I had a classic burger with mac and cheese. Burger was good meat but cooked for about 30 of the 45 minutes waiting, dry as a bone and no seasoning, bap cheese and bacon were flavoursome but bacon fat was boiled, definitely needed crisping up, next the mac and cheese, exceptionally over cooked penne pasta doused with cream and topped with cheese then microwaved was pathetic. The girlfriend had chilli chicken which was battered then boiled in the chilli sauce until it was a stodgy mess, with garlic potatoes doused with cheap butter substitute, her mother had scampi, good size portion of cheap frozen reformed scampi and the chip were clearly over blanched before being refried. The final insult was the table not being checked until after we had eaten by which point any complaint would have been met with 'well you ate it all'. Its a shame as we have eaten here a dozen times before and it was good but might give it a while before giving it a second chance

Carriages Bistro, Larne 4th August 2024 There are a number of conflicting reviews about this place. When we ate there, the previously-mentioned problems were very much in evidence. The service was lackadaisical, with waitresses too busy exchanging local gossip to pay attention to guests. At the end of our meal, I had to stand up and find a waitress in order to pay my bill. (We’d finished our meal 10 minutes earlier). The food: I had Scampi and “creamed potato”. Creamed potatoes were mentioned before in this review site. Mine were barely warm, and lumpy. I have known how to make creamed potatoes since I was 10 years old. It’s hard to believe that anyone on the island of Ireland does not know how to prepare this simple potato dish. I asked for carrots and peas as my vegetables. The carrots were at room temperature. The peas were tinned processed peas – almost unheard of in this day and age. They reminded me of school lunches in the ‘60s. I must say, however, that my scampi was delicious. I’ve seen some good and bad reviews of this place – an equal balance between hit and miss. Our night was a miss. Maybe a manager or a team leader was missing, or (and) maybe a head chef was missing. Poor service; poor food standard.

We recently visited Taste Coffee and Restaurant in Larne, and it was such a fantastic experience that we completely forgot to take pictures! Thankfully, I found some on their Facebook page, but they hardly do justice to how great this place is. The food was incredible, with so many delicious options to choose from. Everything we tried was bursting with flavor, and the chips and shakes were an absolute must-try! The service was super fast, and the staff couldn’t have been more friendly. A special shoutout to Joanne, who was absolutely lovely and made us feel so welcome. If you’re in Larne and looking for the best cafe in town, Taste is a must-visit. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and can’t wait to come back!

A great selection of traybakes a a good cup of tea. The staff are great as well. It's a limited seating café so later afternoon was easier to get a seat than peak lunchtime. I wish I had taken a pic of my cookie pie with candy cane on top. So sweet, I couldn't finish it. Rare for me..

This is a really nice family run pub which serves the best food on the Antrim coast. We’ve been coming here for years and it never disappoints Their chicken stack is by far the best I’ve had - and I’ve had a few! The warm chicken and bacon salad is also delicious. All still very good value!
