Very efficient service We were a coach tour, so meals were booked ahead. Friendly staff, food was good quality and hot. Reasonable prices.

You better make a reservation or you’ll get stuck in another dining room and forgotten. We waited for over an hour for our entrees. No one came to check on us after delivering our drinks. Then three of the four entrees arrived. Its ok. I’ll wait for mine. The food was fine as there are only a few options in the area. The service is more of “what do you want” instead of actual service. Pretty disappointing. Whatever there will be more tourist tomorrow - not like they care.

We visited as part of guided tour, not welcoming at all, we had taken our own lunch and already eaten, bought a drink, sat down, were told we could not sit there! So went outside, decided to try the pub across the road Carrick-A-Rede Bar, what a difference! Welcoming, friendly, sit where you like and lovely atmosphere!

Friendly staff and excellent food especially the Sea Bass and mussels. They even found a table for us when we turned up early one morning for breakfast. Highly recommended.

Very friendly warm and inviting pub. On our first visit we ordered the mussels which were presented in a very large pot and served with a chunk of wheaten bread - delicious . The mussels are cooked in a sauce of your choice . On the second visit we ordered the meat pie and fish chowder, again delicious and very filling. The staff here are very accommodating and gave us a table with plenty of room for our 2 large dogs, who were made equally welcome.

As a family we have eaten here many times over the past 7 years. We loved the food and service here. We would have highly recommended anyone to eat here. Sadly our most recent visit was underwhelming. The majority of our food was served lukewarm and even when reheated (upon request) it was still a bit of a let down. The staff did apologise and reheat the mains and sides for us. Sadly we will not be back and we would no longer recommend anyone to eat here.

We had the best late lunch at this spot after touring Giant's Causeway and the rope Bridge. It was early when we went so the restaurant was not crowded. My husband swears this is the best spot for fish n chips in the country! We really enjoyed this spot and will recommend to others.

We had a nice lunch at the Fullerton Arms but be warned, once the Paddywagon buses arrive, it gets very loud and almost manic! We were lucky we had already ordered and received our food just before 2 full coach loads descended. They do have a separate room, although quite a number chose to sit in the bar instead and were very noisy! We had ordered the Fullerton burgers which were lovely ( a bit pricey at £17 plus extra for the chips!) but my elderly mum ordered haddock which, although it appeared to be huge, was mostly batter. It took a long time for our plates to be cleared away and then we waited a further 20 minutes on a cappuccino and tea. We weren’t in a rush and realised the staff were under pressure but it is obvious that the coach parties definitely get preferential treatment. We won’t go back again at lunchtime but might try an evening meal the next time.

We have dined here many times, a few years ago we were on holiday for a week nearby and ate x3 times here as the food and choice was so excellent. Sadly today was a disappointing return. I had the pork medallions and chips which was just ok, nothing to write home about especially at £18 odd. My partner is a vegetarian and on the menu were x3 options, however one was a salad with Parmesan cheese: Parmesan cheese is not vegetarian, nor is there a “vegetarian version” of Parmesan. Major red flag. That left a choice of 2, pasta : boring and lazy, and a spicy bean burger, also boring but the least worst option. The spicy burger arrives, cardboard in a dry bun with a couple of salad leaves. Chunky chips were very dry as if they had been lying about a while. A very sad fall from grace. I’m hoping the current owners read this and up their game. A once highlight of the north coast.

We stayed here in early October and would highly recommend this cosy, friendly hotel with a Game of Thrones theme. The rooms/bathroom have been decorated to a high spec, very modern and cosy. Loved the shower! The staff are very friendly and helpful and the food was beautiful. Would recommend the fish and the Guinness pie. We enjoyed a visit to Ballintoy harbour- dramatic scenery on a windy day. White park bay is definitely worth a visit though not for anyone with disability issues. Steep walk down - even steeper on the way back up but definitely worth it. Thanks for a lovely stay!

We stayed one night and ate dinner in the bar/restaurant. It was busy but cosy and welcoming to all comers.The food was very good but the portions were huge. I had the chowder followed by the “small” portion of mussels. The bowl of chowder was delicious. When the mussels arrived I queried the portion size as the bowl was huge, that was the small portion! It was delicious but I’m glad I didn’t go for the large helping.Staff were very friendly and as a pub grub venue it is very good.

My wife and I stayed here for a midweek break and had the best time. It's quite unassuming from the outside but inside it's a warm cosy and very welcoming place. The rooms are beautiful and very nicely decorated, my life loved the quirky lights. They are spotlessly clean and very comfortable.The bar is lovely and very traditional with a good selection of drinks and food.The food itself is exceptional. We had such a good meal here. The mussels are unbelievable, the portions are outstanding and very well presented. I had the Guinness and beef pie which again was beautiful and my wife had chicken gujions which went down a treat. Desserts again...unreal, sticky toffee pudding all the way. We had a great nights sleep with no noise and went down the nest morning for a great breakfast.The staff we're super nice throughout our stay and the service was 100%.We will be back here for sure. Top quality spot and real gem on the north coast.

Fantastic customer service and our waitress was delightful, she served us with great timing and politely asked how we were enjoying our food. We ordered the Steak and Stout and a seafood linguine with prawns, scallops and crab. Beautiful food, great service and a pet friendly restaurant. Worth a visit if you are driving near Ballintoy. There is also a nod to Game of Thrones with the carved wooden door and a throne in the room next to the restaurant.

We visited this pub for lunch on our tour from Belfast to the Giants Causeway. Food was prompt and they catered superbly with numbers - polite, friendly and helpful. Moreover, the food was delicious! We chose Irish beef and Guinness pie with mash and vegetables. Not a scrap of gristle or fat to be seen under the puff crust top, and the veggies were cooked so they were hot through, but still crisp (not soggy mush). Mash was delicious too. Game of thrones fans might like the carved wooden door and the throne in the smaller dining room.

Having asked about the gluten free offering and been told that the chef would adjust the dishes to accommodate we were exceptionally disappointed when we were told that we could have a burger without the bun, no chips but we could have mash or baby boiled potatoes. For dessert the accommodation would be apple crumble without the crumble - basically stewed apple then! The other member of the party had a decent meal. Salt and chilli prawns for starter and mussels with the Jawbox sauce for main. The setting was cold and dark. The front door was hardly ever closed and the wind coming off the sea was blowing straight into the restaurant. Having heard great reports we left very disappointed. Gluten free clients always seem to be treated like second class citizens. We won’t be rushing back.

We called in here whilst on a coach trip along the Antrim coast to the Giant's Causeway. The coach driver pre ordered our food by phone in advance so when we got to the Fullerton Arms, our meals would be ready.We were all seated in one room and sure enough, food and drinks were duly served. Delicious chowder could have done with an extra slice of bread but hey ho.Seating out the back for those who didn't want to eat or who wanted fish and chips takeaway from the stall attached to the pub.For those who follow Game of Thrones, you will find a throne and a carved wooden door made from a fallen tree from Dark Hedges in here.

We spent for nights staying here and had pre booked a reservation for evening meals. The service we received was not consistent, sometimes very prompt and with lovely friendly staff, others staff who appeared disinterested and had to be chased for items ordered. The food ranged from disappointing to acceptable but nothing special and quite expensive. Breakfasts were the same, the most acceptable were made to order I.e. poached eggs, although scrambled egg was overcooked and dry. I would not eat here again as I’m sure there will be better places, especially when more open their doors following the COVID lockdown. An effort was made regarding COVID measurements but again the quality of this was variable.

Having spent almost a week in NI and experiencing consistently poor service in most dining establishments I am delighted to give the Fullerton a big thumbs up. The setting is very nice with well spaced out tables. The menu has something for everyone with a separate section for mussels which are a house speciality.Service by Helen and the rest of the staff was promt, attentive and best of all friendly. We had pork belly and salt and chili prawns as a starter, followed by mains of fish, pasta and 2 types of mussels. All of the food was cooked and presented to an excellent standard. The wine choices are very limited but that for me is no big deal. Prices for food of this standard are very reasonable and we will be back. Highly recommended

We have been having a staycation on the north coast and having our dig with us we wanted to find restaurants you could bring your dog with you so we booked the Fullerton arms. I can truly say that this is one of the nicest meals we have ever had. My husband had the chicken coupons which he said were lovely, proper white meat and I had fish and chips which was the best fish and chips I ever had! The cod was melt in your mouth and the batter was perfection light and crispy and wasnt greasy and the portion was huge! My daughter had kids cod goujons and they were the same! The front of house staff were very friendly and I told them how lovely their food was she said the chefs would really appreciate the compliment as they had been very busy and where working very hard! If your anywhere near I would recommend you call in.

The mussels were incredible. Everywhere was fully booked and this place was the only availability. I am so glad everywhere was fully booked. The meal was very good - and I’m fussy. The mussel jaw box ones wow. The ale pie the meat was fantastic and great value for money. On top the staff too. This is amazing pub grub - that you would pay a lot of money for a few miles up the road. Try it!

Had dinner here tonight, greeted warmly by the lovely Helen. Seated in a small raised area to the left in the bar. Duck and Chilli Prawn starters were delicious as were our chicken and seabass mains. However just before finishing our mains a couple and their 2 dogs were seated close to us. Although reasonably well behaved, the larger dog barked randomly at us(and to be honest smelled also). A third couple were then seated in this raised area and it was apparent immediately the lady was unhappy and didn't expect to dine with 2 dogs in the same small space.As dog owners ourselves I fully understand this and it may be an idea for waiting staff to check first with diners or allocate a specific dog area?It won't put us off going back but I feel perhaps other diners should have this taken into consideration.

There is no better place to shake off the lockdown blues. Our first real Guinness and restaurant food since lockdown did not disappoint. Normally bustling with Game of Thrones tourists, a more gentle and relaxed atmosphere was enjoyed on this usually packed bank holiday Saturday. Social distancing was not an issue and all Covid regulations were followed with care. All the staff, including the smiling and efficient Helen, couldn’t do enough to make our visit a memorable one and the chef was declared a genius. We made plans to return even before we had left.

Today I’ve just found my new favourite pub/restaurant. The food was fantastic, and great value. I would recommend the 1608 Mussels, Beef and stout pie, or the Butterfly Chicken with champ and their chunky chips, all served pipping hot. Great food after a long walk and the Guinness refreshing. The staff very friendly & informative. It’s the added extras that set this as my number 1 is that it’s dog friendly (my pup receiving a bowl of water and treats) and after only finishing watching Game of Thrones box set to find out it has one of the 10 doors along with the Iron throne. Thrill to bits, I’ll be back!

Staying in Ballintoy for the night during a hike with the family along Northern Ireland’s coast. This is a sleepy, quiet village, with the Fullerton Arms as about the only game in town.My family had dinner, and it was traditional pub grub. Between us, we had a Guinness/beef pie, fish & chips, burger & chips and a curry dish. The food was served promptly and piping hot. Although not the tastiest we have ever eaten, it was good.I came back after the family was tucked into the Ropebridge House B&B for the night, which is an excellent choice if you are in need of lodging in Ballintoy. I had several pints of their local IPA from Franciscan Wells, which was really good.Service for dinner and the later beer was friendly and casual. The prices were inexpensive by Dublin or Belfast standards.Highly recommend.

Stayed here for one night with my husband and my parents. Tastefully decorated, comfortable and spacious rooms with high end bed linen and soft towels. The bar/restaurant served really good food, served by friendly and efficient staff. The mussels menu with a variety of sauces is to die for, and a small pot (was really quite a large pot) was accompanied by freshly baked, really good wheaten bread for dipping. My husband and I had ribeye steaks - tender and cooked to perfection, with all the trimmings, and well done chunky chips. Yum! There was a little trio of desserts and whilst I am not really a dessert person, they too were delicious. A small selection of wines, but again reasonably priced. A pot belly stove roaring and dog friendly - a delightful little night away. And....as a special treat for Valentine’s Day, all of the ladies in the restaurant were given a large red rose We look forward to our next little night away.

Booked this hotel on a travelzoo deal for my parents 25th anniversary and was so happy I did. Not a GoT fan (but lots of excitement for you if you are) so just based on the hotel - place was spotless, food was excellent, rooms and décor were so gorgeous. Staff (especially Julie-Ann and Louise) were incredibly kind and went out of their way to make the stay special. Great banter and loved the roaring stove in the restaurant area. It's the kind of place you feel totally taken care of but could also wear your slippers in and pad about the whole place. Will definitely be back :)

We were with a tour group that stopped at the Fullerton Arms for a meal. I had the Seafood Chowder. It was served with a most excellent homemade bread. My wife had the Estate Burger that was served with chips and the normal burger toppings. It was not a bad meal and we enjoyed having a chance to get some food after the bridge walk. It was crowded with other tour groups so you may need some patience getting your orders in and back to your table.

We were given a voucher and stayed here on 1 October. The rooms and bathroom are small but well decorated. We did not realise that we would have to carry our luggage up to the room which was not easy and although we had given a card details when booking we were asked for payment when booking in. During the evening we realised that there was an offer applying to October. However when we mentioned this we were told that we should have quoted it when paying. and therefore we were not entitled to it. As it was only a small amount we were not going to make an issue of it.

Among the highlights of tour of Northern Ireland was a night at the Fullerton Arms, a country inn in Ballintoy. Our large room was very comfortable and the spacious, recently-remodelled ensuite bathroom rivalled those of four star city hotels. The staff could not have been more welcoming. Our over-the-phone reservations were made the night before with Taylor, who reminded us to check in at the pub bar when we arrived. This we did and Taylor herself was on hand to welcome us. The small inn is located on the coast, just a short drive from both the Giants Causeway and the town of Bushmills, home of the iconic distillery. Our delectable evening meals were nicely presented and reasonably priced. Servings were generous. Their Steak and Guinness Pie was especially good and the chunky fries were cooked to perfection. The Fullerton Arms is a true gem.

We stopped off for lunch at the Fullerton Arms whilst on GoT tour and were very impressed. The Steak and Guinness Pie was delightful. Service was very prompt. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Loved the GoT door.

Se nel vostro viaggio on the road avete voglia di fermarvi in un piccolo villaggio a due passi dell'oceano, con un ristorante eccezionale e camere bellissime..questo è il posto giusto. Questo pub offre una vasta scelta di piatti sia di carne che di pesce, la specialità sono le cozze, noi le abbiamo prese al whiskey. Piccola chicca per chi ama Game of Thrones è la presenza di una delle dieci porte e una stanza con il trono di spade! Le camere sono moderne e pulite. Tutto davvero bellissimo. Prezzi sopra la media.

On 7 day Shamrocker tour. Dinner at restaurant was great. Evening at the bar was really fun, bartenders super friendly (being from Fullerton, Ca. they even set me up to take photos of me behind the bar). Nice local setting and good time with some locals. Recommended for all passing through.

We waren met een bustour met meer dan 20 mensen. We konden van tevoren in de bus kiezen uit 11 standaard gerechten. Er was veel keus: vis, pie, vegetarisch etc.

The warm lunch we had at our GoT Iron Islands guide's advice was very welcomed! After a long half a day of walking in wind and cold, pre-ordering so that all is ready for when we get there was very very smart as it allowed kitchen to be ready for us and we did not have to wait for food.

It was a wet evening and we were tired to we went into the Fullerton Arms. We came straight into a crowded, noisy room. When a waitress named Helen approached and asked if we would like a menu I said it was a bit noisy for us. She said we could read the menu anyway and she would be back in a minute. A minute later she said the dining room was closed but she had got permission to open it for us. She took us through a little room decorated with lots of Game of Thrones exhibits into an empty dining room, showed us to a table at a window and gave us a menu each. When she took our orders the food was served with only a short wait and was delicious. Helen came into the dining room a further three times to check that everything was all right. I had chowder, which came with a generous helping on a big plate and my wife had steak; both were properly cooked and tasted great.

This whitewashed pub dominates the tiny, delightful village of Ballintoy.

We were happy to get a table for dinner on a busy long weekend (it was Sunday and Monday was bank holiday). Service was kind & the food was good (with different options from what we usually see in Irish pubs). We got the chicken parmigiana (that was great) and the seafood linguine (much more fish than pasta, good surprise!) - price was correct. We recommend this pub for a nice dinner. And for the ones into Game of Thrones, you may enjoy their decoration!

We visited the Fullerton Arms with Friends and can honestly say this place is an absolute treasure on the North Coast. A great buzz about the place with so many people visiting Ballintoy with its Game of Thrones link.Guinness is really good at the bar.Staff are really friendly and can make great recommendations.Seafood chowder was lovely and big portion. But the classic mussels stole the show my wife loves her mussels and these are the best that she has ate.A must for anyone coming.Meals for kids are great and good value.Cappuccino was also outstanding.Highly recommended and will be coming back.It has rooms so will be staying.Try the wheaten bread life changing

We stopped here on Bank Holiday Monday for a quick early tea. The place itself is nice, quite atmospheric etc, which would please GoT tourists no end!

We stoped here as part of the GOT tour. It was nice that we preordered our food on the bus and when we arrived it was ready in 10 mins of us arriving. My spouse had the pie and I had chicken strips very yummy. Nice to sit down and eat a meal during the tour. Service I thought was excellent as they quickly got everything out in 15 mins for 50 people. You pay up front tell them your table number and what you got. Super easy. What super cool about this place is the game of thrones door and the throne you can sit on. Super cool place for GOT fans.

Ballintoy is a small village in County Antrim, Northern Ireland, and I didn’t expect it to have such a splendid pub. The Fullerton Arms is alongside the B15 coast road, between Bushmills and Ballycastle.

Le Fullerton Arms ne doit sa popularité qu'au flot continu des afficionados de Game of Throne sans doute plus éblouis par le spectacle de la Sixième Porte que par l'affligeante cuisine que décline l'établissement.

Spent one night here. While the bedroom was clean, the window looked out on a flat roof which had the extractor fan from the kitchen coming out over it and as a result we couldn't open the window with the noise of the fan and the smell of food. Bedroom was nicely decorated and looked very new and fresh, however when I took a shower, the water just kept filling up as the plug was blocked. The toilet roll holder was also broke off the wall and sitting on top of the toilet cistern. We stayed in 4 star accommodation the night before which included the breakfast and was almost as cheap. Ok for a one night stop over.

My wife and I, with my two brothers and their wives, had an evening meal at this local Ballintoy restaurant while staying in the area. Our meals were varied with differing reviews: my wife and I had the fish and chips-the fish batter was wet and the fish itself was tasteless: my brothers had the steak and Guinness pie, and both noted a noticeable lack of meat. The other meals were o.k., rump steak and the curried chicken. Service was excellent, and the servers were friendly and very pleasant. Drinks were very good, which compensated somewhat for our disappointing meals.

Stopped here as part of the GoT tour, pre-ordering the pie before. Shepherd in like cattle to the back, immediately served your lukewarm food as you wait 10mins for your drink. A smile wouldn’t go amiss from the staff either.

Our tour to the Giant's Causeway included a stop here for a quick lunch in Ballintoy. They had a set menu for lunch that was distributed on the bus for us to select ahead of time, therefore; when we arrived at the Fullerton Arms Restaurant, our lunch orders were delivered within 5-7 minutes after we were seated!

This is a great chippy! We arrived on the ferry in the evening into Belfast and went straight to Flash in Bushmills before heading to our hotel in Portrush! Delicious, non-greasy chips and great curry sauce. I usually have chips cheese & gravy but the portion is enormous so went for a small option before bed!! Spotlessly clean and friendly, welcoming staff. See you next time we're over!
