Derry Londonderry Brewers Fayre in Derry

Got to the restaurant at 13:30 on a Tuesday to find the restaurant closed. This should be advertised

Brewers Fayre is the restaurant beside the Premier Inn on the Crescent Link, people who didn't stay there where able to come into it and have a nice relaxing meal, however the policy has changed now so it is only guests now who can have meals in it, but you can go to the bar for a drink if your a non paying guest. I am not sure if that is a good policy as it's bound to affect the takings

Super friendly staff waited on my 2 young girls and fiancee excellently. The food was great also. Been quite a few times, just home from our latest visit, bellies filled and kids tired out. Happy days.

Our first visit definitely not our last. We had a great family meal and our server Heather was fantastic couldn't do enough to make our dining experience a first class one and was even great with our kids. Can't wait for our next visit.

The meal for two adults and two children for a carvery was £45!! For somewhere that’s meant to be family friendly and affordable it was so overpriced. The cauliflower hadn’t even been cooked, it was so hard I couldn’t cut it. The array of veg was poor, no broccoli, mashed up carrot, the potatoes tasted microwaved, it was just so poor. Really disappointed for the price.

Chain nasty food, no taste like chewing rubber we would certainly not recommend to anyone. Seems cheap but it's actually well overpriced for the quality of food. Chicken and burgers frozen and reheated you could almost bounce them off the table. That would be the best thing for the food at least you wouldn't need to eat it then. Sides are like cardboard, coleslaw you have never seen anything like it no mayo just watered down cabbage and carrots completely inedible. Please don't waste your money and go somewhere local and a small run business instead.

Always good service, great food and a relaxed atmosphere. Love taking my parents here for a meal. All very reasonably priced and my Mum usually gets to spend a voucher for there, not sure where she gets them.

While it isn't fine dining, it is good. It serves well for a cheap bite to eat to avoid cooking and cleaning dishes, and has a good selection of drinks to wash it down.

Not crowded tables well spaced out. Table service only

Great food nice service always serves you right I'm like the food went in new year eve it was amazing recommend coming back 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟😊

Service was amazing and fair play to the servers working for Xmas

This is one of the biggest tragedys for me. The pre covid one was 5 out 5 24/7, this one is shockingly bad. Hadn't been since summer due to poor food and it hasn't changed!! Parsnips were cremated, carrots were rock hard, gravy minimal. Roasties far smaller than last Xmas but still tasty!! A bottle coke at £2.80 is just ROBBERY. After 10 yrs I'll probably never be back.

Food is ok. Definitely not good qualiy but fills a hole.

Nice to find somewhere open so early.

Lovely quiet place for something to eat. The Sunday carvery is well worth the money.

The carvery here on a Sunday is exceptional, and even during the week for a lunch or dinner, the staff are attentive as well

Food menu has changed but I wouldn't say for the better, it's ok disappointed they have taken their sausages n mash off the menu, , we used to take our elderly parents here but now that menu has changed its not so good for them , staff are still great and friendly n atmosphere is good

Great value for money really nice family meal

Food is okay, service is very good though. Quality of dishes seems to depend on time of day and a bit of luck 🤞

Grand for a few pints but this place could do better as the bar shuts very early with last orders at 10.30 and needs a better selection of Ales. Update as there was live music tonight and the bar was lively and still open at 10.30pm when I left so will certainly visit again though ale selection is not great.

Had lunch here, fish and chips which was good. Service wasn't very quick but we weren't in a hurry so it was ok. Lunch special from 12 - 6pm is 2 mains for £10.49 which was great value!

No carvery dinners on Sunday absolutely shocking I hate this it horrible

Could do with an upgrade of food. Not everyone wants grilled chicken or steaks!!

Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Food is as expected for price.

My starter's of potatoes, bacon and cheese was bland and my fish pie didn't have a lot of fish 2 small prawns and 2 small pieces of Salmon mostly mashed potatoes and (garden pie's) in side which I hate but wasn't in the discretion on the menu

Awful experience manager needs to learn some customer service got the deal for kids 3 courses for £5 never took the dessert then when we asked were kids dessert was a blonde haired manager said we needed to go up an pay for it we advised her we asked for the 3 courses she said if it wasn't put through we had to then pay even though the dessert with the deal was the same price she wouldn't even give the kids an ice cream awful service awful way to treat children she should be sacked I have never been to a restaurant were it was the staff faults for not putting it through correctly then we were asked to pay for something we already paid for would not set foot in here again

Went yesterday for the first time and was genuinely surprised. Lovely atmosphere, great service and the food was incredible. Usually vegan options are limited in Derry but there were so many to choose from here and they offer vegan desserts which is rare. I had a burger, skin on chips and a chocolate torte. It was hands down the best vegan meal I've ever had and the staff couldn't have been nicer. Will definitely be back!! Thank you for a wonderful meal with friends who enjoyed theirs also.

Sylvia and Justin were just Amazing so kind and well mannered , staff were very attentive, welcoming and friendly. Will definitely return in the future due to the service these two produced highly recommend.

Always great value and the food plus portions are both great. The staff are always super friendly and have a chat. Kids meals and a few other meal deals are hard to beat plus the breakfast is great and always bustling.

Really nice staff, reasonably priced magners on tap and lovely food

In on Sunday night for a family celebration and we had to order at the bar I was not happy the staff could have come to the table and took our order

Food was good and cocktails were nice. Great atmosphere and nice staff

This was my second visit to this restaurant, the food has been excellent on both occasions, the staff friendly and helpful. Not a lot of customers on each occasion, so difficult to rate, but quite happy to return.

2 meals for less than a tenner for lunch, ample amount of food and very tasty, what more can u ask for.

Cheap and cheerful. Exactly what you expect from Brewers Fayre. Majority of staff will go above and beyond.

Pint of Guinness not poured properly. Was the only thing to whinge about.

Had a birthday meal food was lovely and staff was so helpful

Booked through your app for 7pm Sunday arrived 12-15 mins late …. Told sorry you should have called we’ve turned gas off no more food…… IN A HOTEL ….. seriously ….people were still in dining room ….. Our Family night out at your restaurant cancelled …. Oh please do NOT EMAIL ME AGAIN WITH OFFERS … as I said to your manager I’ll never visit again, ever …. I’m done with that ridiculous nonsense ….. Maybe educate your staff that customers are important to keep your business going….. Maybe they could have called me as you do have all my contact details from the booking (phone email) to see was all ok … Maybe consider the number of times I’ve waited for your team to serve me when I’m standing at the check in desk waiting for a staff member to come free…. Waiting for you…. Anyway amazing job keep up the good work …. So seriously disappointed…. Lost Customer Derry

Friendly staff , good food and relaxed atmosphere

This is a great go-to place. The burgers are lovely and it's reasonably priced

Lovely place to have a meal. Food delicious. Staff very friendly and helpful. Meals reasonably priced and value for money.

Lovely people and place totally loved it ❤️

In the afternoon I called manager Deborah was on her own. She was run off her feet. Waiting to order food was a bit longer. Food this time was lovely and hot!

Sunday carvary need extended badly. Staff and food are wonderful tho so I have to provide 4 stars

I've just eaten here, won't be coming again. The adult portion of "cottage pie" was a tiny dish of mash with a bit of gravy in the bottom and a dozen peas. The kids menu portions were bigger. A waitress came round and asked, "is everything okay with your meal" and seem surpised when I pointed this out. What's the point of asking if you aren't going to do anything about it? Totally rubbish.

Briliant breakfast yummy what you need To start the new day

Come on in great pub grub and great beer

Good food, perfect portion sizes and friendly staff. Reminds me.of an American restaurant. Drink menu is fab!

Had a lovely meal here, the staff are very friendly, nothing is too much bother. I'd come here again if we're up this way.

August 2022: Really disappointed with my latest visit. It started out well, I ordered a main from the main menu and a starter and dessert from the value menu. I tend to chose the same meals each visit because they’re usually so good. Starter arrived within 10 minutes - chicken goujons and dip, very tasty. Then I was forgotten about. Two nearby tables, who arrived after I did, were served before I said to the waitress that I hadn’t received my main. It finally arrived exactly one hour after I ordered it, and it wasn’t complete - I’d ordered the upgraded smothered chicken but received the basic version. The chicken was delicious but the salad leaves left a horrible chemical taste in my mouth. When the waitress lifted my plate she didn’t ask me how the meal was so I didn’t mention it. The saving grace was that I had a voucher for a free main, and didn’t see the point in complaining to the staff about something that couldn’t be refunded. The table next to me also said their burger was disgusting. Reading recent reviews the restaurant seems to have gone downhill which is a shame. This experience has put me off returning in the foreseeable future. June 2021: Went last week for lunch, ate from the two mains for £8.99 menu which is fantastic value. Place was quiet due to Covid-19, normally much busier. Can’t wait to visit again, excellent food.

Food wasn't great, lots of stuff unavailable

I ordered the giant Yorkshire pudding. Reasonable enough for a microwaved warmed meal. No staff came to the table to check if food was ok. My son ordered chicken dinner. The potatoes were rock solid apart from one. I eventually beckoned a staff member to the table when I eventually saw one. By this time he had finished what he could eat. They offered extra chips-to be eaten alone. Very poor service. Very poor quality of food. One to avoid

Eaten there on many occasions in the past. However, today the food was well below average. Daughter ordered a cocktail off the cocktail menu which was awful. Service is usually excellent, but barring one staff member today, the staff were disinterested. When we mentioned about the cocktail (which she hadn’t drunk) the response was ‘Oh!’. The outdoor seating area was full of litter, and in general, the whole place needs a complete overhaul.

My fiance and I dined there tonight as we stayed at the adjoining hotel and went for handiness. We ordered the mac and cheese and the starter platter. The food arrived promptly and the staff were friendly. However the food was sub par. It tasted as if it had been frozen. The texture of the chicken on the starter platter was like mush so much so it was hard to tell it apart from the batter! It was not eaten beyond the first bites. While we understand the nature of this type of establishment we were not checked in on once, even though we were in a high traffic area. This was not expected but would of certainly helped our dining experience if someone had just asked is "everything ok?"

Brewers Fare is a place to eat good food. The price is nice and the good even better. The only thing, there always seems to be something missing on the menu. Would be great to try the Chipotle nachos one day.

Items missing from meal, coffee cold

Wow, what a difference a Yr makes. I'm really glad that someone had sense enough to employ very frendly staff & to rework the menu. Today we were greeted by a very polite and friendly girl with brilliant people skills. The meal itself was just perfect & plenty of it. Can't wait to return. Welldone team..

Friendly, helpful staff. All food prepared and presented in a timely manner. Excellent place for the whole family. Make sure you join the loyalty scheme for discounts and money off vouchers.

Was great food the staff were super friendly, had a couple of things missing on menu but not a major problem overall was lovely

Went with family for a quiet drinks, very pleasant staff, very relaxed atmosphere 👌

Lovely meal highly recommend first class

Stopped in for a quick dinner. Greeted by a friendly member of staff, checked covid passes and took us to our seats. Restaurant was very clean and spacious. Lots of choice on the menu. The food was served quickly and was delicious, as was the wine. Always enjoy visiting here, highly recommend.

Lovely food staff very helpful.

Great hotel good food close to shops for all shopping nice place.

Tried to go for lunch at this restaurant today only to be turned away. We all had our covid passports on the app on our phones but because we had no photo I. D we were refused entry. I thought the point of having the app was that all your details appeared once scanned. Went to another place and had no issues.

Extremely terrible menu & services.. Kids starters for plain veggie sticks, cold hard cuts of of peppers , carrots & cucumber,, like really what kids would eat this!? My sons main well he could barely eat it as wasn't tasteful. Other than that whatever says on the menu , , there's not much to choose from & most is not even available. Adults Mon-Fri specials to choose from Any 2 mains £8.99 , Although if I order one then it costs £9.99 ???? Then the coffee gets to be refilled as much as you want and it was disgusting when had once, , tried a second to see if anything else and was not working then. The main I got was tikka chicken & rice,, the chicken was few small pieces inside a bowl of tikka sauce which was more like soup.. not much to enjoy🤔 I'm no Gordon Ramsey and usually not hard to please but seriously 😐 Other than that staff were friendly is the only thing perhaps I can say Hmmmmmmmmmm ?!!!

Very poor food.... Definitely I will never go back!!!!!!

Comfortable, friendly hotel,, food ok, two main meals, £8.99 before 6pm,,hard to beat that.

Friendly staff. Decent food. Right price.

Food was great and the staff couldn't do enough for you😀👍

Nothing special as expected, but the food and cleanliness was top class. Careful with your drinks orders as they were prone to give you the wrong mixers.

Really nice and helpful staff. Decent food and good beer!

Very gpodcost wise and product wise and staff very nice

Toilets were not very clean and the corridor leading to them smelled disgusting. The person who "welcomed" us didn't seem pleased to see us and was a bit unfriendly. Server didn't write down our order so it was wrong when it came out.

Friendly efficient service. Good food

We had a really nice meal in this place and at a reasonable price

Homely food, good price, well ventilated restaurant with great servers. Easy, flat entrance to the restaurant, from the carpark too. Would highly recommend!

Had the mix grill lovely food great service

Brewers Fayre serves a moderate menu of burger and grill type dishes along with some other tasty options. Good Covid procedures. Good, pleasant service.

Great price. Quick and good quality food. Free parking.

Staff were pleasant and very helpful. Meal was lovely. We had not been able to book but they accomadated us.

Fast and friendly service. A few items from the children's menu missing otherwise 5 stars.

First time back since before 1st lockdown and the food was really really good and piping hot. Also brilliant service from staff as it is now table service 👍👍

A bit expensive , 2 burgers and 2 teas £26.70

Great food. Great service. Value for money

A great restaurant for everyone with breakfast lunch and dinner.

Was a great commotion over our bill which my husband paid at bar but duty manager confronted him 3 times in front of other customers he showed the payment on his banking app which she didn't, believe my brother in law asked for police to be called to sort this as we didn't, want arrested when we left email sent to manager as yet no response other customers were appalled and said they would never be back as she said to us if we didn't like it you know where the door is no manners whatsoever customer service appallingly

As always, great service, warm, welcoming and helpful staff led by Andy and great food.

brilliant service took my grankids they realy enjoyed the food and drinks

Great restaurant on Waterside area of Derry. Great food & superb menu options. Plenty of covid precautions in place including table service. Great friendly staff & keen prices. Family friendly.... go visit...

Restaurant looks good and modern and staff were very pleasant and helpful especially Sylvia, Jill... We booked via Premier Inn our breakfast and evening meal, one drink included with each meal. Definitely worth the price!

Brilliant set up to prevent the spread of the virus ... food and staff FANTASTIC .. layout was a credit .... 💯👏

Food was good, beer was wet and the room great!

Great to see this place opened again. Staff brilliant and working so hard to keep us all safe 👍

Excellent sunday carvery, understaffed though, i felt sorry for the waitress but she was excellent under pressure
