Stopped for a quick lunch on the way to Castlewellan - staff were helpful and friendly. We explained we were tight for time but they gave us a table, the order was taken quickly and the food arrived not long after. Exactly what we needed. Food was great. Will definitely go back for a more relaxed meal next time!

A hidden gem in Clough. I stopped off with family for dinner. The restaurant is lovely and clean, well lit and excellent staff. The menu was very extensive and can cater to most if not all allergens. I had the steak. It was cooked to perfection and reasonably priced. Would be very happy to call again.

French's was recommended by the guest house owner and did not disappoint. Even when busy there was space in the car park. Inside we were greeted by a really nice waitress called Diane who found us a table and brought a menu. We can vouch for the roast beef and steak meals and the Seafood Chowder was excellent, so much so that we came back for more the next day. Diane suggested we book a table for the following day and the day after and gave us a card so that we could phone and cancel if we changed our minds. While Diane was so very helpful. even the younger staff seemed competent and pleasant while one of the owners, Mr French, gave the restaurant his personal attention.

Visited here for the first time this morning and I was very, very impressed. The place is spotlessly clean including the bathrooms. Staff friendly and very efficient. Beautiful presentation of food and lovely mugs for the tea. It has been a long time since I have been to a place for tea and a scone that has ticked all the boxes. I shall definitely be back and would 100% recommend French’s to others. Thank you.

Stopped for a coffee break on our way to holiday in Portaferry and we were not disappointed. The lovely waitress recommended we try the iced coffee & it was absolutely delicious. On our way home we stopped for breakfast & again the food was just amazing. Beautiful place & very clean. Staff were all lovely & friendly & checked that we were OK for everything. Lovely outdoor area & this was great for us because we had 3 dogs. Great place & very well run. Great service & great prices. Well done to all the lovely ladies who served us with a smile.

Called for lunch, staff greeting very good, were taken to the table and given menus and took drink orders. After a decent time returned and took food order which was from a varied menu with a specials listing. Chowder starter is a good size as a starter and with good flavours and texture. Mains of roast beef with trimmings was excellent in quantity and quality. Not rushed and as we could not finish all we asked for meat and potatoes to be boxed which was done without a fuss. The staff were very pleasant throughout and very helpful. On site parking was good but was filling up as we left, toilets very clean and well appointed especially the disabled facilities. Can recommend a visit.

My son told me about this place so on the way home from Tollymore we called in for lunch. It was lovely. The service was good, our drink order was taken straight away and the menu was extensive. It's one you can read for 10 minutes and still not decide what you want. I had the Hawaiian Burger which came with chips and a bacon slice. My son had Pulled Beef with French fries, coleslaw and BBQ Sauce. We just had Cokes for drinks. The loos were spotless. For what you get the prices would put other establishments to shame. There was a party of about 30 and the place still didn't feel crowded and with the quality on offer 30 people can't be wrong. Can't wait for an excuse to go back. Highly recommended.

I don't often give a 5 star review but this has to be our favourite restaurant! Breakfasts are lovely and lunches and dinners are always exceptional. I have been dining in Frenchie's for decades and I can honestly say I have never had a poor experience. It's so good I even drove my staff 20 miles to have our Christmas lunch here! Oh and very reasonably priced too!!!

I don’t usually give reviews (bad or good) as I believe places can have there good and bad days. However on this occasion I feel like the restaurant really deserves a good word. Due to the restaurant's location I drive past it quite frequently and have always said that we must try there as it is always packed out. Well we eventually got round to trying it out on Wednesday morning for breakfast en route to the sheepdog trials and wow did it impress. To start with the staff that greet us and showed us to our table we’re as friendly as anything also very neat and tidy. After browsing through the menu we settled on the full breakfast and the avacados and eggs. The pricing of these items were quite cheap therefor I didn’t expect much but when the food arrived I was shocked to say the least. The portions were incredible and the food was delicious. This alone was enough to make me consider writing a review but we said that we would come back on Sunday and try the dinner menu out so I said I would wait and see what it’s like before putting up a review. Well Sunday came and we arrived 20 minutes early however this was not an issue. We were seated by the same lady and we had our food by the time we were supposed to arrive. Again it was the same story really friendly staff and really REALLY great food. All I can say is that we will definitely be back again soon as it was the nicest meal out we have had in a very long time. The chefs must definitely love what they do.

My husband and I were invited to join a couple of our friends last Saturday at Frenchs, Clough. We arrived on time and we’re allocated a booth to the right side as we entered. Service was prompt and efficient - we ordered our drinks and chose from the menu. 2 no.. fish, chips, mushy peas and tartare sauce. Another ordered the 6 ounce stake with onion rings on the side, and the 4th guest decided upon the Hawaiian burger. The food arrived hot and perfectly displayed our on the plates. Efficient and pleasant staff all well turned out We had fully intended to have a dessert, but when the time came, although we were eager to try the options, we declined. Our main course had more than satisfied our hunger, and we each agreed that the portions received were just right for us! If we were to have any more, the chances are that we may in fact ruin our meal experience. 3 coffees and a tea later, we asked for the bill…… it’s my understanding we owed £99.00 ….. a fair price for a tasty gin and apple cocktail, a West Coast Cooler, 2 pints and a whiskey wouldn’t you agree! This was our 1st visit to this establishment and we would thoroughly recommend it to others. The layout of the restaurant is open and can adapt easily to cater for large parties. The banquettes or rather the fixed seating area along the side walls created space-saving, cosy, intimate seating booths and due to the professional and welcoming staff we enjoyed our privacy ...a great experience, good food, great service at an affordable price. Good first impression - the entrance was clean well lit with outdoor seating and car parking on site. Thank you French’s - we will be back (reservations recommended).

Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Vegan option wasn’t great, a hard round the edge bun, a bought in frozen style chickpea burger, very over cooked onion ring, lettuce and a lonely small single tomato slice with no sauce. My family all enjoyed their beef mains, I just think it’s terribly lazy to not even try creating something tasty for vegans.

Searching for somewhere to eat after visiting Newcastle last Saturday and stumbled across this lovely cafe/bistro, was very busy but was seated straight away! Ordered panini/toastie , kids dinner & kid’s sausage meal- not much of a wait and adult meals were delicious & served with salad & coleslaw. Daughter’s dinner went down a treat & the Roast beef didn’t even need a knife to cut… was as soft as butter, wee boy devoured his dinner & the desserts were just as good- Apple crumble, malteaser cheesecake & brownie all delicious… would travel out of my way to come here again if I’m in the area and have recommended to family and friends.

Came here with family expecting a nice dinner experience. Bottle of Malbec way overpriced. Ordered 3 tomatoe and jalapeño soup, bland and tasteless.. I wonder does the chef taste his food 🤔. DISAPPOINTING. Ordered 4 mains, steak sandwich which was 20 pound was grisly plus 3 pound for fries. The salmon that came out was very small with a few greasy fried potatoes. No veg! No sauce. Priced at 24 pound. The beef burger appeared and tasted like cheap frozen beef. McDonald's or burger king burger would taste better than that. Lastly ordered a steak... The only one on the menu.... At 34 pound expected a good sized steak. It was very small, very chewy and quite grizly. The peppercorn sauce watery too. Again no veg just a pathetic small bit of rocket salad and cold tomatoe. This place is way overpriced and over rated I wouldn't recommend it to anyone and definitely won't return. The waiting staff were nice and friendly and attentive to us that was the ONLY positive. Service charge was included and we paid it. it should not be included though and people should give a tip if they feel the need.
