Glencloy Inn Carnlough in Larne

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!

Staying in the area for a few nights, dropped in to this lovely bar / restaurant for some drinks and food. Very nice atmosphere and excellent staff, Guinness was lovely and the food exceptional. We had squid to start and monkfish for our main. Generous portions and very tasty. Will definitely return and recommend highly.

Fell upon this place by accident today and we are really happy we did. The bar/lounge is currently getting redecorated and they’re doing an excellent job of it. Think the new branding is called “The Loft” All the Staff were very friendly and attentive. We were made to feel very welcome Food was 10/10 good size portions and all very tasty, the nicest meal we have had in a while. I expect this will be very busy in the summer months so glad we were able to visit. Definitely recommend

This place was buzzing when we visited. There were a lot of customers gathered t=round the bar who were all friendly. the bar staff were nice too. We looked at the menu and it was not vegetarian friendly so we did not eat there, but it is well reviewed.

Fantastic find on the way to the causeway. We stopped for some lunch and randomly picked this place as the reviews were good and it did not disappoint. Service, atmosphere and food were all excellent. We had a selection of light bites and mains. I had the soup and I have to say it was possibly the best mushroom soup I have ever had. Would definitely visit again.

Great craic in the bar and lounge, however the food was a bit disappointing. Fish itself was wet and flabby though the battery was crispy and nice but those chips...as white as they were when they were peeled! All 3 of our party who had chosen the fish commented that they wished they'd ordered my chicken stack, which was very nice!

The welcome was terrible it was like we weren’t welcome an older gentleman on the bar atmosphere terrible won’t be back far better across the road in McAuleys the Bridge Inn

Went in for a couple of drinks here due to us staying locally. The stove in the bar was lovely and the bar itself was immaculately clean. One of the big judgements for me is how clean the toilets are and the Glencloy clearly has a high standard. Didn't serve food during the week but a great place for a drink

Visited several times for a pint and sat in the snug which has a lovely roaring stove to warm you up. We ate here once in the upstairs restaurant - food was good not great

An awesome pint of Guinness in a cosy pub. Food is great and the staff are attentive and friendly. The locals are friendly and great craic. Been here a couple of times during Saturday afternoons with the kids and they love the grub too!!! Definitely worth a visit!!!

The staff and owner of the Glencloy could not have been more helpful and welcoming. If you’re gonna eat here make sure you can eat, for the portions are massive. Really good quality food served quickly and piping hot. So full of flavour and a cracking pint of Guinness too. Nice to see so many younger staff members so well tuned into their job. Really on the ball and a credit to the inn and to themselves. Cannot recommend this place highly enough! 100%

It was the birthday (a big one!) of one of the crew on our yacht at nearby Glenarm marina, where we berthed on our way from Plymouth to Argyll. One of our number has limited mobility, and Glencloy Inn was about 3 miles away on a wet night. Trying to find a taxi in such a remote spot was proving very difficult, but Paddy sorted this out for us. Great food, excellent service and a hugely welcoming hostelry. If this is Irish hospitality, I’ll definitely be back! Excellent value too.

Stopped here for lunch with friends. The owner was very hospitable as were his staff. Had a very nice lunch and a few drinks. The bar is smart and well maintained and is an ideal stop if travelling up the coast.

We called for lunch a few weeks ago and I have herd of the great gammon steaks they served. Well I wasn't disappointed. Such a large portion i had to take the half of it home. Great food, staff where great. Really busy but had time to make you feel welcome. I think our waitress was called Eireann.

Warm welcoming friendly staff. Great food.. Well attention on guest. Definitely recommend this place to others customers.

Called in for lunch. Great service and atmosphere. Everything we tried was yummy and great portions. Will definitely call again!! 😋

Was here on Saturday 30th july with my partner and daughter and her boyfriend as always the food was delicious and will defo be back soon 😀

Lunch was lovely! Only negative was the service, lots of young staff who gathered at the bar chatting. Had a young baby, had to go find a staff member to ask for a high chair and later after waiting for 15 mins when you have children felt like an hour to ask to see the desert menu. The restaurant opened at 1…just before 3, 2 of the 4 waiting staff sat down for lunch, while we and another table were trying to get some service. The restaurant had only just opened that day after having to close for a covid deep clean. There was a sign in book…we were never asked to sign, only noticed one other table signing in. Also saw a couple walk in seated themselves, decided they wanted to change table and did so without any staff advising due to covid seats are allocated. The table they left wasn’t wiped down. Nothing was said. Overall atmosphere was good, chilled out and food was lovely. Perhaps a more senior or experienced member on waiting staff to over see things would help everyone, I know perhaps easier said than done in these difficult times.

Excellent food,friendly greetings and a good time was had by all. Our only issue related to cocktails which where v. weak.

Staying nearby we have visited for food in the upstairs restaurant and some drinks in the bar downstairs. Food is amazing, great portion size and really tasty. Lovely atmosphere in the bar downstairs also. Will definitely be back!

Food was excellent. Staff very polite and knew their job to a T. The whole place is spotlessly clean. Great friendly atmosphere. Will definitely go back. Value magnificent. Highly recommend it. Erin was our server and really experienced.. 100 points from me.

Only stopped for a light lunch as we drove round the coast but so glad we did. We got an exceptionally warm welcome and enjoyed a delicious freshly cut sandwich served with some salad, sitting in the baking sunshine outside the pub. Highly recommend it.

Me and my partner had a meal here on saturday night the 04 june and the servive was brilliant staff where very friendly and helpful the steaks where great and the cocktails are amazing cant wait to go again 😊

Food and services brilliant as usual, place is immaculate. Reasonable prices too Only disappointment for me was their gorgeous pavlova wasn’t on the menu.

Good pints and service and usual caustic wit from owner Paddy Diamond. Good social distancing outside .

Just had a lovely lunch at this place. Precautions are being taken for safety, staff are efficient and friendly and the food was fresh and tasty. Excellent value for money.

First meal out after lifting of Covid restrjctions was The glen coy inn . The place is very clean and sanitized and well prepared for reopening. Staff were really nice and food was also good.

Got a Friday food delivery from Glencloy due to Covid 19 lockdown and have to say everything was excellent. Although the delivery was to Glenariffe the food was piping hot and delivered at exactly the time promised. The food was professionally packed and exactly as...

Great pub food fantastic very reasonable lovely atmosphere and very helpful and friendly staff.Owener paddy a very friendly guy and has always time to have a chat love to call in there when we are up for the weekend

We went to the Glencloy Inn for lunch whilst staying in Carnlough. We had seen the pub earlier in the week and didn't realise initially that the restaurant is actually upstairs from the pub. As you go through the front door of the pub, there...

We were here in October when it was very cold outside, but inside the Inn was warm and cosy. Fish and chips were ordered, arrived in good time and really delicious, so fresh. Good price also.

Really poor food. Nothing cooked fresh , all seems to be frozen and bought in from a frozen food distributor. The staff were very good, and it’s a good friendly atmosphere, what shame about the food. I would recommend for a drink , just eat...

The Loft Restaurant , upstairs in the Glencloy Inn unquestionably serves the best grub / food in Carnlough. I 've eaten in this place at least 10 times this year and never had a bad meal. There's always a standard menu plus local specials ,...

Popped in for lunch on way to ferry. A hearty good quality and filling meal was had by all. Good value for money and very welcoming

Probably the only less-than-three-star review I’m leaving any place we visited during our 12 days in Ireland. We stayed at the Londonderry Arms hotel down the street. Wandered over here for a drink and change of scenery. Lots of locals drinking at the bar — which is what we love to see! However this particular group was not pleasant and many seemed really drunk. Two young adults working behind the bar seemed stressed out and not terribly happy. I felt really bad for them. I can’t really put my finger on what was so “off” about this place but it is literally the only pub I had a bad experience at in all of Ireland.

My husband and I went here for lunch I had the chicken sizzler and my husband had the chicken stack he enjoyed his but I didn’t enjoy mine my chicken was tough I couldn’t chew it the staff was friendly and helpful

A nice small restaurant in a small village of the coast of atlantic. I recommend it for a quick lunch with family and friends. The food was freshly cooked and the waitress very friendly.

Varied menu to suit all tastes, nice ambience, friendly staff (even though we were nearly the last diners before closing, we didn't feel rushed or reminded how late it was) food was plentiful (so much so I couldn't finish it!) and delicious!

We stopped in here for something to eat having been told by the taxi driver that the food was quite good.

Stopped in today for lunch very impressed with the food both sea bass , burger and sides were well presented . We decided to sit outside as the weather was good and I must add that the staff were very friendly and attentive always checking if we required anything extra . We will be sure to recommend it to our friends .

I've been going to this bar & Restaurant ( The Loft) regularly for at least the last 10 years, many times each year when visiting our local caravan. Great craic and very reasonable prices, it's great to have this facility and never disappoints. Try a 'Paddy's Diamond' cocktail if you want something different .

Fantastic pub, great reception, lots of fun, good bartender (we love Archie), hospitable and very friendly locals, great food, super atmosphere ! We had a hard time leaving the place 💕

Pure. Friendly. Good food. Beers, gins , .... Top Atmosphere. Good address . Top bartender. Really Irish

Carnlough was absolutely packed, as we expected. We popped into the Glencloy Inn for a late lunch. The place was busy, and the staff were very attentive and welcoming. The barman offered us a table outside or upstairs in the restaurant, but quickly offered the room next door when he saw my mother with her walking aid. He guided us through to a suitable table, took a drinks order, and left us to browse the menu. He returned with drinks and to take our food order. Food preparation took 15 - 20 minutes, which was absolutely fine and a good indicator that we weren't getting microwave mush. I had a very generously sized gammon steak, well cooked and presented. My wife had the pan fried hake, and my mum had soup - all very good. During the meal our waiter, two other bar staff, and the manager checked unobtrusively that everything was good. The place was fresh and clean with pleasant decor, and the side room was a bit quieter than the main bar area.

I’m just sorry we weren’t there for longer. Cold day in Carnlough - we just fancied a quick coffee. I popped my head in asking if that was ok. Come on in.... a lovely welcome. Fantastic bar with wood burner, lovely staff. Great coffee, great atmosphere - I’m only sorry I wasn’t there to settle in for the day - I will be back to try the food next time.

Google brings this up as a dog friendly pub, but it’s not and neither are any other eateries in the village.

Great place for a family meal or even just a burger and beer of passing through. Restaurant upstairs and pub grub down. Very clean facilities

First up I have a confession to make. This is my favourite local pub and my daughter now works here part time.

We came across here after a cold walk in Glenarm forest we wanted somewhere warm and the peat fire attracted us. The staff are really friendly and welcoming not just to us but our young children and the food was really lovely homeccoked food at a reasonable price.

We booked a table at the Glencloy Inn for Sunday evening, when we arrived the waitress took us to our table and took our drink and meal order, She was friendly and pleasant. I ordered chicken stack with chips and peppercorn sauce and my dad ordered 10oz steak medium to well done with chips , mushrooms , tobacco onions and peppercorn sauce. The food did not take long to arrive, piping hot and to our satisfaction. Both meals were delicious .We have been to the Glencloy Inn on many occasions and the food is superb. We will be back

Highly recommend, really nice find. Food was 10/10 and service too. We plan to return again very soon.

We booked a table for 13 to eat at The Loft on Sunday 27th January. The starters were very slow to come out with half the party finished eating by the time the other half got their food, the starters were ok but the wheaten bread that came with the prawn cocktail was like a rock it had obviously been frozen and defrosted. I ordered the 10oz sizzling rib eye which came with onions, mushrooms, bacon and garlic butter but I had asked that it come medium with no onions, the waitress told me this would be fine. When my steak arrived it was covered in onions, I told the waitress I had ordered it without and so she took it back to the kitchen. She then came out to tell me that the steak could not be served without onions as the onion, bacon, mushroom and garlic butter sauce mix was already made up together and so she asked me would I like pepper sauce instead, I said yes that would be fine. After another few minutes the waitress came back to tell me that the pepper sauce has onions in it and did I still want it, I said I couldn’t eat onions and so I would just take the rib eye steak on its own cooked medium. The rest of my party was almost finished their meal by the time my steak came out, which arrived very well done. I then waited another ten minutes for my side to be served. A number of us had ordered steaks to be cooked blue, rare and medium but every steak was served the same, very well done. I didn’t even touch the steak and ate the chips only. When the waitress started to clear the table she asked how our meal was and when we said it was terrible she said nothing and continued clearing the table.

Met up with friends as a surprise lunch and had a great meal served the friendliest of staff.No one had a bad meal and to top this some of us were asked to pose for photos for whiskey tasting promotion .Having never set foot inside this premises before it will not belong before we call again whilst travelling on the Causeway Coast .

Great food, great welcome from the owner, great atmosphere and a great selection of gin! This place is a hidden gem on the coast road and definitely worth a visit!

Went into the Glencloy inn on a Friday afternoon with my sister and 4 children. Before entering the owner passed us outside and looked us up and down. Anyway ordered drinks and some snacks for the children, nachos and chips. The nachos were a generous portion but the chips were all burnt ends. The children played a game of pool and the whole time the owner stood at the bar scowling at them. When I went to get a drink he said look after the kids, I asked if they were doing anything wrong (which they weren't as I had been watching the whole time). He just replied that he had spent money on doing the place up. Made to feel unwelcome and after a game of pool we drank up and left. I must say though the rest of the staff were lovely, the owner really needs to lighten up a bit and try to make families more welcoming.

Stopped here for lunch on our drive to Belfast. Went upstairs to a nice newer restaurant with a great menu. Nice find!!

Really enjoyed our last 2 visits the staff couldn't do enough for us the service was great and the food was delicious can't wait till I get a chance to call again

Three times I have visited the Glencloy Inn the food is to die for the staff are amazing but three times I have witnessed the owner of that bar humiliating someone, it seems he thinks he has the right to inform you in the most ignorant of manners exactly what he is thinking, he rushes up and down the bar stressed out to the maximum like a police man pounding the beat he makes you feel uneasy he shows his displeasure verbally and with loud tuts and shakes of his head and mutterings under his breath, I witnessed him cross examining a family of three on why they were eating and their son was not then tut and walk off ...he embarrassed an older couple because they came in from the street to watch the golf and when they asked directions to the location of the tv from a member of staff he shouted all over the bar that he had already gave them directions shouting loudly EXCUSE ME EXCUSE ME I TOLD YOU WERE TO GO...omg why do people frequent this establishment...then the next minute he is touring the room asking is everything alright do you need anything else? Yes we do...we need you to remove your self and appointment a manager who appreciates custom who is not constantly irritable in a rage and anxious. If you feel so overwhelmed do your self a favour and your livelihood a favour take a break and chill because your doing your bar no favours

Went for dinner with my family. Food was delicious but the ignorance of the old man behind the bar was awful. I was getting a drink at the bar when a few foreign travellers came in. He took my order, then ignored me to say hello to the tourists. Poured them drinks then came back & said to me "What do u want again dear" maybe my money wasn't as good as the tourists!!! Would never go in here again. His attitude stinks & it's worse if u have children with u.

Another great family mean to celebrate my daughters confirmation. Friendly staff and great food at reasonable prices - what more do you want. Thanks Paddy & Staff

Tried here for my mum's 60th birthday the owner/manager was extremely ignorant. Customer service was non existant. I am amazed they have any customers

Was up the Antrim coast today and called in here for dinner, having eaten here a while back.I had chicken stack followed by really dreamy coconut, lime and mango cheesecake with ice cream.Fast , efficient and very friendly service by Niamh too, would definately go back here again

We ate dinner here one evening and enjoyed the experience. The food was fairly uncomplicated and wholesome but nicely cooked and very well priced. We had a combo platter (mostly deep-fried), chicken stack and cajun chicken creole. The food was fine and the meal overall was less than £35 including drinks soi we definitely couldn't complain. A more adventurous menu with maybe more fish variations would have been nice but it did the job for us. Service was fine although there did seem to be one lady doing almost all of the work. Definitely a place to return to and far better than the only other real option in town for a sit-down dinner.

This pub has a simple ethos - fresh high quality ingredients cooked in a simple but superb manner. It works. the staff - including the proprietor - are friendly and efficient. Other customers are mainly local but the ambience is very welcoming. Portions are good. We have eaten here - and at the competitor's - several times and on every comparison the Glencloy experience was better. A non pretentious highly recommended pub.

I have never written a review about any restaurant but after the meal we got today I want others to know how poor it was. Breaded mushrooms rock hard as overcooked. Steak was meant to be medium, was over done. Chips are frozen chips that are soggy and greasy. Scamp hard and tastes of oil. Cabbage must have been cooked a couple of days previous. Would not recommend and won't be back.

Great service from all the staff, very helpful. Food was great and varied choice menu. Nice touch on Mothers Day was a free dessert for all the mothers which took in 3 in our group. Were asked on a few occasions if everything was OK and the prices very reasonable.

The restaurant is lovely. So well designed and really chilled with a relaxed vibe. The staff are such a cracker group of people; young, intelligent with a lovely laid back attitude that suits the whole venue. Been twice, loved it twice. Our food has been wonderful both times, starters and mains divine. Prawns, brie, steaks, carbonara....I would review the desserts but we didn't have room. Excellent menu and venue.

Arrived very wet and cold. Appreciated open fire and warm welcome. Food was excellent. Would definitely return.

Arrived off the ferry from Stranraer at 4.00 pm on Sunday and stopped in Carnlough en route to our holiday apartment to book a table for that evening. Very friendly and helpful staff obliged and we returned at 7.00 pm to find the place heaving but a nice table reserved for us in the Loft. They'd clearly had a very busy day as a couple of items had dropped off the menu but a lamb roast was available so we went for it and it was sweet. In fact everything about the meal was good ; the staff, the drinks, the puddings, I can't recommend this place strongly enough. The only drawbacks are that parking nearby proved to be difficult and that the restaurant is closed Monday to Wednesday.

Another great meal tonight in Glencloy. Friendly attentive staff, nothing too much bother. We were with family & they agreed the food was delicious & home made, we all enjoyed our meal. Would highly recommend

Popped in for several pints with the wife. Very busy on a Sunday night, but the place was friendly and welcoming for a couple of road-weary Yanks. Fun atmosphere, excellent bar service and snacks. Stop in and plan to stay awhile.

Tenía una gran noche en este bar de madrugada con un grupo de amigos. El personal del bar era muy amable, y nos hicieron muy buenos cócteles. La única decepción fue que el dueño estaba malhumorado, quizás él estaba teniendo un mal día?

Este es un bar y restaurante en Carnlough de madrugada en la famosa costa de Antrim. El restaurante ha sido completamente rediseñado y renovado a un estándar muy alto. Como siempre, el personal es excelente y muy bien capacitado, tienen excelentes habilidades interpersonales e interactuar bien con los clientes. La comida era excelente, muy bien presentado y hay una excelente selección de cervezas, vinos, cócteles y ale, por supuesto Gin. Hay un gran ambiente durante todo el Glencoy, pero ten cuidado no creo que en una mesa. . . A veces se puede, pero me suelen reservar una mesa, ya que muchas personas fueron rechazados mientras estábamos allí ya que estaba tan ocupado. No se puede revisar el Glencoy, sin mencionar el propietario Paddy Diamond es un chico simpático y acogedor. Un gran trabajo Paddy no puedo esperar a volver! !

Tenía muy buena comida en el Loft esta noche, pollo pila y las camareras eran sonriente y preciosa

Este tiene un bar pequeño pero acogedor y sirve buenas hamburguesas. Disfrutamos de unas cervezas aquí y nos hicieron sentir bienvenidos. Posiblemente el mejor pub/bar en la ciudad.

Reservamos para una comida el domingo de Pascua, y al llegar nos recibió una abrupta caballero que recibió de bowling para preguntar si habíamos reservado. Cuando le aseguraron que tuvimos, él gruñó agressively lo permite nosotros antes de ir de arriba a él conseguir nuestra mesa. Cuando nos íbamos, el mismo hombre que estaba en la puerta. . No gracias por asistir, seguro hogar. . . . . . . Simplemente un solo gruñido de nuevo. La comida era precioso y personal eran encantadores, pero este "caballero" no animan a recomendar o retorno: (lástima el ignorante dueño como aparte de su presencia, el lugar es encantador.

Love the food and drink great deals on cocktails very homely friendly entertainment value for money nice big fire for the cold days and night very relaxing atmosphere staff very friendly restaurant upstairs or you can eat in front or back bar lots of sports tv and music

Had a lovely night in "The Loft" for parents 50th Wedding Anniversary meal could not fault the meal or service. The new decor looks great. The Roast Beef was very tender and well cooked congratulations to the chef.

Dinner for two. Beautiful settings and decor. friendly and helpful staff. Restaurant is upstairs so may be difficult for some. Meal itself was beautiful and we'll presented cocktails were amazing. Prices are very cheap. Very enjoyable experience and will definitely be back for more.

Couldn't have been happier with this wee find!! Food was delicious.. I went for the Glencoy stack- pan fried chicken, peppered sauce and tobacco onions on a bed of mash! I didn't want to stop eating it was that good! Will definitely be returning soon :)

We were referred to this restaurant for lunch by a local. This place was good for lunch. Good menu, clean place and friendly staff. The prices were reasonable. The kind of place you could easily pass by but we are glad we didn't. All of the local firemen were having lunch there so that says a lot. Enjoy!

Called in while journeying to Cushendall, without a reservation. the staff immediately attended to us and got us a table. we were served quickly and without fuss, and nothing was too much trouble. The food was excellent, and an request was complied with.Staff were pleasant & helpful. Will certainly go again.

Stopped for a drink after a day touring the coast. A small, basic, pub on the main street. There is seating outside but, for a small town, the road is very busy. The staff were friendly and prices seemed reasonable.

The owner and staff were very friendly. A cosy restaurant located at the first floor. In the ground floor there is a pub.

This is a great wee pub in the heart of Carnlough, friendly and welcoming owner 'Paddy'. The staff are very polite and hard working upstairs in the restaurant, really good customer service. The food is okay but very greasy especially chips, garlic potatoes etc and taste as if the same fryer is used for everything. Has the potential to be much better.....sort it out Paddy

Decided to have Sunday Lunch here and as it was very busy we were given a table downstairs in the main bar not the most comfortable place to eat but I was too hungry to start looking for somewhere else.There was only roast pork on the menu so thats what we had however most of it remained on the plate.The pork was overcooked,the mashed potato was cold and tasted as if cornflour had been added to it,the vegetables were tasteless.I have eaten in the Glencloy three or four times and can recommend it for an evening meal but Sunday lunch seems to be hit and miss.

Although we staying in Londonderry arms, first night decided to explore village... 2 hotels plus this pub, a spar, a mace and a Chinese.... Both Lounge and bar quite small. Young locals go... Pool table in the lounge... But... The prosecco was "brut" (minging) and the red wine mini bottles also not nice. Depends what you're used to drinking. We only stayed for one round then stuck to the Londonderry arms pub next 2 nights.

Enjoyed our evening in the bar on our stop in the causeway coastal route. We had some beers and ate a burger and steak sandwich while playing a cards game. Very friendly staff, too bad that most desserts were out. Chocolate cake was very good though!

Lovely friendly local, meals served was excellent and the live music an added bonus, great craic . On the main road through carnlough Northern Ireland , lovely roaring peat fire

Had a great night in this Bar with a group of friends recently. the Group that were playing were fantastic and everyone enjoyed the atmosphere, the professionalism of all the staff and welcome that we received. We will definitely return.

2nd time we have visited the Glencloy inn and we weren't disappointed. The food was excellent and the young girls serving our meals were so nice and welcoming. The gammon, fish and the nachos were truly appetising and would whole recommend it.

This restaurant is just across from the harbour on a surprisingly busy road in the village. It is not the poshest but there is a warm welcome. Staff are attentive. Meals were served promptly and were delicious. Portions are generous. Certainly can recommend it for a meal. There is also pub grub, but we didn't have a look what was on offer there. The restaurant toilets are in need if some tlc, but they are clean.

Had a lovely dinner here on Sunday past. I was impressed with the quality of the food, the friendliness of the staff and one of the nicest pints of Guinness I've had in a long time. I hope to be back soon.

We had not booked but got a table for two at lunch time on St. Valentine's Day. We had the delicious Glencloy Stack, a speciality of the restaurant, consisting of char-grilled chicken fillet and bacon with mushrooms and tobacco onions on a bed of champ (mashed potato with spring onions) complemented by pepper sauce. It was well worth the visit. We requested a jug of water and this was presented as a clip-top litre bottle with two lounge glasses containing ice and a slice of lemon (at no charge!). We will definitely call here again.

Freshly cooked food, delicious and hearty. The Glencloy Stack is a winner for dinner! It's well priced, in fact it's great value.

Lovely wee spot in Carnlough. Food was beautiful I had scampi and sweet chilli chips and it was really good. My sons ate off of the children's menu, it was proper food with a very generous portion size. The waitress was a lovely wee girl very attentive and pleasant will definitely be back.

Arrived in Carnlough on Friday 1st January to spend the weekend with a French friend. Visited Glencloy Inn on Friday evening. Place was packed and live music. Had a pleasant couple of hours. Returned on Saturday evening at 8.00pm. Enquired what time they finished serving meals We were told it was 8.30pm which we accepted and explained we didn't plan to eat until around 9.00 pm as we had late lunch. Place was almost empty. Around 9.30 the landlord asked us to leave with no explanation given. Service from the young people behind the bar was fine but the landlord was rude and ignorant. When asked a second time for an explanation he refused to give one and insisted we leave. Left a very sour taste for the whole weekend and reflects badly on Carnlough generally. Wont be returning and certainly wont spend any more money in his pub. Disappointed !!

My partner and myself visited this pub on a friday afternoon, and has such a good feeling about it, great music and we had such a lovely time enjoying the music and singer we decided to go back the Saturday night .. which was a total contrast... Me and my partner were enjoying a few drinks, there was only another couple of people there, when after a few hours , a man who I guess was the landowner , ask my Partner who was having a smoke outside if we could leave the premises being before 10pm!! he was asked where he was from ???? I am french ??? did the accent made a difference in that whole experience ?? My partner is from Belfast and I am French ??? ! I have to say , we have a few drinks and as I love dancing , I put some music in the juke box and danced a little bit , which I don't think there is nothing bad about it.... I really would love to know what was the reason behing it all.. I have been living here for the last 25 years and was never told to leave a pub as yet . I would like to hear the views of that man and the reason behing it all??? Anyway I just have to say , the staff in this pub were all lovely just this man , made the whole experience being a dreadful experience and some early comment from somebody else mentioned a very unprofessional man , which they presumed was the landowner and was very so unfriendly to the.. Racism ? Other??? I really would love to hear from you Mr the Landowner and your reasons ???? Can i say my review relate to the pub and not the restaurant !

Great food and very friendly, professional staff. The place was packed with people which speaks for itself. We were shown to a table immediately and our order was taken promptly. Varied menu with something for everyone at reasonable prices. The food was amazing and there was plenty of it. Will definitely be back again.

Lunch here was a very enjoyable experience. There was plenty to choose from on the menu at reasonable prices. The serving staff were helpful and cheerful, making for a very nice time. Recommended.
