Galley Kitchen in Coleraine

We were walking along the harbor in Portrush and had lunch at The Galley Cafe. There is a terrace overlooking the harbor, but it seemed to be a place where people smoked. We decided to eat inside beside a large window. We had a quiche and a ham toastie. They came with French fries and coleslaw and a small green salad. It was very good. The restaurant is inside the Portrush Yacht Club. At first we were not sure if it was open to the public, but it is...

Normally the standard of service at the harbour area is excellent. As a regular at the ramore complex, I was maybe expecting too much. We ordered our food, we were grunted at by the server and sighed at, even though there was nothing irregular about our order, two full frys and a tea and coffee, pretty standard I thot. We were instructed to sit down and our food would be brought to us, and it was, slammed down at the end of the table and the waitress stormed away.......really!!! Food was ok but the standard of service was absolutely dire

Don’t even think about it. Pub food is not difficult to do well, so it’s genuinely worrying when a pub gets it so wrong. A few tips for the management: 1. A teaspoon of cheese and one slice of ham does not a toastie make. 2. When someone finds hair in their food, it is customary to offer them a refund. 3. Please do not microwave pastry. A quiche should be crisp, not rubbery. 4. Asking people a table number when they order will stop the teenage waitresses from wandering round for ten minutes asking ‘is this yours?’ It might also help the food arrive hot. Save yourself time and money and go up the Main Street to Kiwi’s, who know how to do pub food. That’s exactly what we should have done, lesson learned.

Lovely spot to call in for a coffee or breakfast. Staff are friendly and helpful, prices not bad either.

Getting busier now the word is spreading - Belting fry up for those lazy mornings! Pup friendly too out on the balcony!!

Love this place. Best Ulster fry - tasty and no grease. Great value. Fast and friendly service. Really practical place. Nice and airy inside. Super find!

Have ate here several times last year and always been excellent. Unfortunately there seems to have been a few changes. Orders are now placed at the counter rather than waiter/waitress. Menu is reduced. Varied versions of fried breakfast, salmon etc has now gone. Toast with breakfast no longer included in price. Top ups of tea/coffee with breakfast were previously free, now costing £1. Quality is still good but as I walk past several establishments offering the same and more choice to get here means I will spend less time here. I'm sure this will be the case with many more regulars.

Very good never tried always saw the banner up amazing chicken and ham pie with mash top others had the all day breakfast includes tea and toast really good value and best view in portrush looking out at harbour and lifeboat few golf meetings coming up I know where I'll recommend thank you

Been here a few times and its got great service with a smile, lovely breakfast on offer,fantastic view and reasonable price go down to the Portrush yacht club and it can be found upstairs hidden gem

I came here for coffee and scones with a visitor from England. We were all very impressed. The scones were delicious and the view is stunning. The staff were lovely and I was offered a refill several times. This is a hidden gem!

Went in a group of 8. Excellent breakfast! Very friendly service and everyone enjoyed their food. Free refills of coffee which was good and the room is nice and bright. Definitely all be back

My daughter and I have been waiting to try here for ages. Stood for 5 mins at counter nobody acknowledged we were there and then when we went to be served they took the man before me. We walked out and went to a nice wee cafe up the road where we were made welcome. Won't be back!!!!

I generally do not like the eateries at the bottom end of Portrush - BUT - today i found the Galley Kitchen at Portrush Yacht Club - and had a very acceptable mid morning snack - brill breakfasts and coffee !! We will defo be back - - this is a superior alternative! They also do lunches but nothing after 3.00pm ? Unfortunate but maybe that will change.

Had the mini grill this morning which was excellent. You would need a very big appetite to eat the bigger Galley Grill if this is what they call "mini". Free coffee top ups and all for less than a fiver. Service was super even though the place was packed, very friendly and quick. Such a lovely setting as well with the option to sit on the balcony if it's sunny. Will definitely be heading there for breakfast again.

Have eaten here several times now and I must say I,ve never been disappointed with either the food , service or staff . This place is a wee gem and cant wait to go back , would fully recommend a visit

I reviewed the Galley Kitchen in March and was a little disappointed. Not this time. We went for breakfast on Saturday morning, the food was superb, service excellent and with the sun shinning we were able to eat outside on the balcony overlooking the harbour. One of the best venues in Portrush.

Have eaten here several times since it opened, the most recent Saturday and Sunday.Had breakfast on the balcony in the sunshine on Saturday. Fantastic!Breakfast or lunch the food has always been excellent. If only I lived closer I`d be here everyday.The staff are friendly and attentive. Those refills of tea(or coffee) are great.I know where I`ll be this weekend!

Visited yesterday 18/4/15 for lunch with friends.Location is superb situated on the harbour & the renovation of the building has created a bright modern feel.Lunch order of 3 fish pies & 1 chicken & mushroom pie quickly served pipping hot in ceramic pots which were well filled.However the fish pies whilst very tasty contained little or no fish, it had a potato topping & had been padded out with chunks of potato. However the the chicken pie had plenty of chicken & mushroom filling & was declared very tasty.Coffees & lovely small tray bakes to follow were excellent.Service was prompt & friendly.In good weather sitting on the balcony with the view over the harbour will be the place to be.I can see this spot becoming very very popular & rightly so. But please put some fish in the fish pie!!!!!

I have eaten in the Galley at Portrush Yacht Club several times since it opened (I live nearby) and have tried most of the items on the menu.The restaurant is located within Portrush Yacht Club in a light airy room with panoramicviews over Portrush Harbour. The food is prepared fresh using many local ingredients and is excellent, the portions generous and the service is fabulous.

The newly refurbished yacht club looks super and is an ideal spot for a cafe, there is plenty of space between the tables, the staff are friendly and there is generally a very nice atmosphere. I found the food terribly disappointing, I had the fish pie and my partner had the chowder, both dishes were at best average and essentially the same, one was served with baby potatoes (the chowder) and one with mashed potato (the fish pie). I would rate the fish pie below Sainsbury's Taste the difference fish pie and well below the standard of the fish pie that used to be on the Wine Bar menu. Initially I tried to order the All Day Breakfast but I was told it was no longer available. Overall disappointing, but the staff seemed terribly nice and I hope it works out well for them.

We have been for lunch a few times now and the standard has always been terrific. The chowder is amazing and we love the fish cakes too. The free top ups of coffee are a bonus never mind the views and lovely staff! ....going back this week again! So glad this is on our doorstep!

Visited here last week with a friend on the recommendation of another. I was very pleased with friendly service and good food at a very reasonable price. If this continues this is sure to be a success.

Came here for first time on Friday for the 'all day' breakfast [kitchen closes at 3 pm] - I'm local and can't believe it's taken me this long. Was it good? - I went back on Saturday with my husband so that would be a yes! Had the filled bap Friday [2 sausages, bacon, egg] and the pancakes and bacon Saturday, with tea refilled at my pleasure and toast - £4.95!!!!!! A table of ladies beside us were having the lunch options - one lady recommended the chowder because it was her second visit that week but they went for the fish pie - they got a casserole dish each, with wheaten bread. The room has a glass wall which looks out over the balcony right into the harbour and along the East Strand - great unobstructed views. took the weekend newspapers and whiled away the morning. Lovely helpful staff, very clean, nice atmosphere with no pressure to move. Pity it closes for food at 3pm because its more than able to compete with other more well known establishments nearby - though I suspect it would lose the comfort aspect if it became more well known and had longer opening hours - maybe I should rethink this review lol!

Great food , great coffee and great service with a price to match . With the views out onto the harbour and a homely atmosphere I would recommend The Galley Kitchen to all my friends and family .

had breakfast here today, just wonderful, good nice prices, far more space to move than a certain over hyped establishment down the road !, had their pancakes and bacon with free toast and unlimited coffee (or tea) refills just great, i will be coming in the future for lunch as well as Breakfast a hidden gem lovely setting overlooking Portrush , skip the ramore for lunch people come here !!!!!!!

Came here this morning for breakfast with two friends. My first thought on arrival was wow. I loved it instantly. Great seating, very clean and cheery atmosphere. We ordered quickly got our drinks straight away and before we knew it, our food was at the table.I had the all day breakfast, beautiful isn't the word. I was very surprised that it all wasn't deep fat fried like everywhere else in Portrush. The staff were going round with a tray offering out free fresh heart shaped shortbread as it was valentines day. In a nutshell, great food, staff, service and scenery. Will most definitely be back. Keep up the great work.
