Was told this was a must-see bar in Derry. It's fairly central but it's certainly not grand.

It was pouring down with rain as we were passing this pub, so we decided to call-in for a drink. It was open mic night and surprisingly full for a Wednesday night. My partner was very impressed with his Guinness and I enjoyed a white wine which comes in a small bottle. We got chatting with the regulars who were very welcoming and friendly.

On visit to Derry to see the walls we stopped off at the The Grand Central bar with a disabled friend, who had a disability scooter. After a couple of beers we were asked to leave by the bar lady. She said the scooter was blocking her way, although there were 12 kegs of beer on the floor taking up a lot of room. The message was clear, If you are disabled you are not welcome here

A grand place. I got lucky and wandered in on a Sunday night and there was traditional music, great local crowd. The bartenders were charming and helpful with trying new whiskey.

Después de llegar a finales de Grand Central Bar, teníamos una pinta una pieza y el personal era muy servicial. Preguntamos sobre albergues por la zona ya que no habíamos reservado. Ella era tan servicial Janna hizo por encima y más allá y nos conectó con uno! Gente genial aquí. Era un lunes por la noche, así que no es un montón de gente, que a veces es cómo me gusta. Una experiencia maravillosa!

He visitado este bar en muchas ocasiones para bebidas y para participar en su concurso, pero sólo recientemente noches nos dimos cuenta de que también ofrecen comida. El sábado pasado mi pareja y yo fuimos y probamos el menú y las comidas eran deliciosos!! Opté por el pollo que incluía queso de cabra y ensalada y era servido con patatas fritas, mi compañero tenía una hamburguesa. Los tamaños de las porciones eran sumamente generoso y nos incapaz de terminar nuestros platos, pero la comida era tan buena que realmente queríamos!

Opened for business Christmas Eve-had just finished work and decided to go for a wee drink with family and friends to raise a glass to those near and far at Christmas. Sat upstairs-log fire on, Mellow Christmas tunes playing softly in the background and a complimentary glass of mulled wine was served to all punters. Such a lovely touch.If you haven't already, visit the Grand central-you will definitely receive a warm welcome, great gastro pub food and fab live music from local talent most weekends. First pub in Derry to get behind and support that which is now a vast array of local ales they will also be launching their very own ale called Dopey Dick can't wait to sample

I used to travel to Ireland for business, and would always take a personal day or two to drive up to Derry. This pub would be my first stop after settling in. They pull a lovely pint, the food is very good, and while the locals were always friendly to say hello, I never felt harassed or "eyeballed" as a solo woman. Highly recommend.

Lovely little bar in the centre of town. They have excellent local beers on tap from Donegal and further afield, and have a good selection of spirits too. Have been a few times, and the music from bands and DJs on Fridays and Saturdays is always brilliant, and contributes to the great atmosphere of the bar itself.

We call into the grand central about once a month when we are in Derry. We usually stay in the travel lodge directly across the street. The Central is always our first (and sometimes last!) stop on our pub crawl. It has such beautiful character, lovely original bar and checkered floor from the 1920's. The selection of beers is the best I've seen in Derry, loads of craft bottles to choose from and even the draft selection has much more choice than most bars, and there is a good selection of top shelf spirits. The bar staff are always fantastic and so friendly and helpful, I like the fact they are mainly older (late 20's-30's) and are all experienced and seem to care about the customers experience and overall bar experience. We always have some banter with the guys on Saturday nights, they remember us each time we are in and always take time to have a quick chat and make us feel welcomed. The clientele is a good mix, generally from early 30's upwards which we'd prefer (not been ageist but the days of downing shots with teenagers is sadly long gone!) Heard a few different dj's on Saturday nights and they are all fantastic, not the usual chart cheese you hear in most bars but music for the 80's and 90's kids! Have only been on a Friday once when it was a guy playing some classic covers, lovely relaxed atmosphere. I love the little touchs like fairy lights on the windows, candles on the tables and in the toilets which make the place feel homely and personal. Haven't tried food yet but it looks amazing and heard other customers say it's beautiful so next time we will be eating here! Love this bar, definately our favourite place in Derry and we look forward to returning every time we visit the city.

I walked in to the bar this evening with my wife, stood directly in front of the barman who was showing an obviously new member of staff how to pour a pint. No problem, guy has got to learn and I can wait for a bit. All the barman had to do was acknowledge that we were standing there. No, completely ignored while he continued with his tutorial. I can accept it if the barman didn't see me, but he did and chose to ignore me and my wife. I hope the new barman gets his customer service training from someone else. Walked out and won't be back.

Supposed to be a special birthday dinner. Firstly an inexperienced waitress spilled red wine all over my niece. She didn't even have the grace to apologize. The food was hit and miss...some good some not so. If you have any dietary requirements I would beware as we were lied to by the kitchen. All in all an overpriced and very unsatisfactory experience

This is my favourite restaurant, the food is amazing and the staff are all very nice! My wife and I come to the Old Docks every year for our wedding anniversary. My Facebook profile picture has been a selfie of my wife and I outside the door of the restraunt for two years in a row. My only little niggle I have is that the restaurant can get a bit noisy. The music can be a wee bit loud and at Christmas they have a dancing Santa who hands out presents. This is lovely for people who are into this, but I prefer just to enjoy their good food and have conversation that I can hear. The Old Docks are very easy to book a table with. I have a child with special needs and the staff are always great, trying to put us out of the way because my child has sensory issues. During the normal seasonal dining the staff have gone out of their way to also turn the music down a little when I explained my child had special needs. It is great to see a restaurant showing such understanding. I don't expect this treatment or for other people to have to accommodate our family's special requirements, but I am very grateful when they try to help us. I can hardly wait until it's my birthday and I can tuck into their sweet, sticky, chilli prawns and steak served with bacon and cheese mash and an extra side of mushrooms that melt in the mouth! I totally recommend this restaurant, it has some of the best food in the city!
