We celebrated our full wedding day at Hugh McCann's in October 2024. We'd like to start by saying that absolutely everything was perfect!! Lee was our wedding coordinator and point of contact, and his passion and flair for the role did not go unnoticed. He is incredibly thorough and flexible for all the pre and post celebration sets. His courtesy and professionalism on the day to both my wife and I, and all of our guests was very much appreciated. The staff at McCann's are extremely hard working and dedicated to helping us create the wedding of our dreams. Sandra was there to assist with any requests and was closely connected to the top table to ensure we were well looked after. The venue itself is situated beautifully between the foot of Slieve Donard and the seaside. It's backdrop panoramic views offer an incredibly unique and picturesque view of the gorgeous Irish countryside. Our 3 course meal could not have been nicer. The food was clearly freshly prepared and served with speed and efficiency. There were a number of excellent alternatives which catered for dietary and allergen requirements. The venue itself holds an incredible country-like character. However it also lends itself to individual-specific tastes, themes and decorations. Our feedback from friends and family alike shares a common trend of happiness, impressive and special. A fantastic selection of drinks are available at the multiple bars within the venue. The immediate grounds outside offer multiple beautiful locations for pictures regardless of the seasons. All in all, we have absolutely only positive feedback for Lee and all the staff at Hugh McCann's. They helped us massively in creating the wedding of our dreams, and we cannot wait to attend another wedding there. Best wishes, M&T

We couldn't recommend Hugh McCanns for a wedding highly enough. It was very affordable, the build up to the day was organised and stress free. Lee was exceptionally easy to work with and made sure that everything was covered. The staff were efficient so everything ran on time (we have been to many weddings in different venues where this wasn't the case). We had a full vegan menu which was not only accommodated with no hesitation, but also was delicious, we had many comments from meat eaters who were very impressed. The venue is stunning and picturesque. So many of the guests were commenting on how beautiful the venue was. We even got a lovely sunny day (though I am not sure I can give them credit for that). We had the best day and the only downside is that we don't get to do it again. If you're thinking of booking this venue, do it! You won't regret it.

Shocking customer service. Pointed to a table to sit at not took over by waitrrss. We then had to ask for menus and our drinks order to be took after 20 mins waiting. Only 2 out of 4 drinks arrived. Mains were brought down before starters and kids meals so had to ask for that to be took back and our starters first. Another 30-40 mins later kids meals and startered arrived. Not one person came near to ask was everything okay or were we finished with starters. Another 45-50 mins went past and we ended up paying for what we received and asked for mains to be cancelled. Absolutely shocking service, definitely won't be back.

Was OK, I got the chicken burger and chips. Chicken burger was cooked but the coleslaw (which I usually love) tasted weird. It wasn't like normal homemade coleslaw it tasted more like co op or Iceland coleslaw. The chips were hard and cold. I doubt we'd go back unfortunately. The staff however are friendly in the restaurant part. Only problem was we asked a member of staff do tou wait here to be seated, he said yes so alot of staff walked past us while we're standing at the entrance inside then I noticed 3 couples going up to the bar in the restaurant and asking for a table for 2 so we stood waiting there for about 7-8mins and there was no need to.

I recently officiated a wedding ceremony at Hugh Mc Cann's and I could not recommend the venue or the staff highly enough! Lee and the team went over and beyond to ensure that every detail was in order for the ceremony to run smoothly. The ceremony, itself, was outside in their gorgeous secret garden, and with the uninterrupted views of the Mourne Mountains, it was a truly wonderful experience. I thoroughly enjoyed my first visit to this venue and I look forward to returning someday soon! :)

Very disappointing all round. We were eventually shown to a seat after standing for 5 minutes and two people asking if they could help us. We weren't asked if we had any allergies but were seated in an area which I can only assume is their 'dog friendly area' and were promptly surrounded by 4 dogs. Once seated we weren't asked for our drink order which is usually the first thing any server asks. There was one girl taking orders every 10 minutes or so or whenever it seemed to suit her. Even though we had been waiting 25 minutes she went to the table beside us who had just arrived and took their order. We left after this and went to the Harbour House where we had a lovely meal with exceptional service from start to finish.

No one to greet/seat on arrival. Staff member disappeared after we asked him about our table. Plenty of staff on...not overly busy. We moved on inside, got a table. After 10 minutes I had to "Ask" for drinks order to be taken...normally first thing waiting staff do normally as it's a good earner? Were told there hadn't been a Sunday carvery for some time, even though we were told it was when we booked? Starters: we ordered 7 soup, 2 cold and 3 not what we ordered, 2 didn't arrive? Apologies accepted, we ordered mains. Roast beef thick,rubbery under done, not well done as we had ordered,steak sandwich too tough, turkey dry tasteless, gravy terrible. Some staff may need re- training, communication with kitchen may need improvement, I'm sorry chef but Sunday lunch isn't rocket science, very poor fare! This was a family lunch nightmare... we didn't stay for dessert or more drinks, sales that were needlessly lost by this establishment as we would have moved into the bar area later. Very dissatisfied, angry, felt sorry for staff who have to hear complaints, although some seemed already aware and weary of the poor standards tolerated by the management.

Had a bad dinner experience , 2 drinks didn't show up at all then dinner was served and one person's dinner didn't show, at this time we had been up to talk to staff twice about what had happened. Some food didn't show up at all and drinks needed to be asked for a few times to get when dinner was over. Think this was a one off as I have ate here before and believe it was just a mistake. Not many or at all options for certain allergy's/intolerances , would really hope in the future they do. Staff are friendly and polite and parking is at rear of building. Food that did come was lovely

Outrageous prices tbh. 5 pound for a pint of Guinness and 15 pound for a bit of chicken, mash and fried onions that left me hungry. It did taste quite nice but was nothing special. Staff in restaurant were clearly under pressure so orders took a long time. High prices obviously not being used to pay staff anyway.

What a disaster …….We chose to eat here to celebrate a birthday with family (6 adults & 2 children) while staying in Newcastle for a couple of days over the holidays. Really wish we hadn’t. From start to finish the experience was a disaster, we sat at a table that was free but not properly cleaned (COVID), we ordered some drinks which came out quite quick however wine arrived with only 2 glasses and we had to wait on 2 more glasses for around 10 minutes.While having drinks and reading the menu it was obvious that the few staff that were on were run off their feet as it was busy and there were only 4 servers that I could see doing both food and drinks. After ordering, starters arrived and were fine, we were lacking basics like salt and pepper on the table and sufficient cutlery and napkins but when we finally got a member of staff this was quickly fixed but a basic that should not need chased down. Mains arrived well some of them 4 burgers did initially and they were inedible all burger buns were rock hard, had obviously been sitting under a heater for some time, under the top of the bun was a cremated beef paddy, when shown to a member of staff she said she was sorry and that it looked completely burned, all 4 were the same!! During this time the remaining 2 mains still had not arrived. Time between 4 mains arriving and the remaining 2 mains arriving was approximately 15 minutes ( really not good!!) however at this time we had given up, no one wanted to stay and eat, we had no faith given the experience up until this point that we would be served a nice meal at the same time so we cut our losses. To add insult to injury we had to wait around while the ONE staff member that could sort our bill for what we did have was free. Again I appreciate this establishment may have been under staffed at a busy time and therefore this extremely negative review is not aimed at the staff but is aimed at management and ownership, really really poor and we will not be back. Finally, when we did get to pay the bill and explained all of the issues we experienced the manager gave very little apology and charged us for what we had, thought this was very poor service.

We booked our wedding at Hugh McCanns but due to the pandemic had to rearrange it 3 times. We ended up having our actual wedding day at another venue closer to home and having an evening party at Hugh McCanns in October 2021 when restrictions had lifted. It was a fantastic evening, special mention to Lee who looked after us throughout all of our date changes and on the evening itself. The buffet we had was delicious, guests commented on how good the pizza was especially and the views in the loft suite are amazing, would highly recommend!

Very dog friendly. You can bring your dog into the bar and there are many outside tables in two different areas, some had wall heaters for chilly weather. At 2pm we had the choice of seats inside with our pouches. The staff were very friendly and water plus dog biscuits provided. Our food was well cooked standard pub meal with reasonable portions and prices. The pub has traditional wood deco with a roaring coal fire and Irish music. There are some other dog friendly places in Newcastle but some are more expensive so this did us for a quick lunch at a reasonable price. I would go back because it's dog friendly and the food was tasty. It is also handy to have a car park behind it's and it's handy to the town and also the start of the mountain walk. I would imagine at night people would have a great evening there for 'a bit of crack' if they liked a bar scene with a bit of holiday Irish thrown in.

First time in my life have i sent a meal back. Firstly when you entered the restaurant it was freezing.Door were all open and sea breeze could blow your hair off. Waiter was ver friendly. Menu was very small with only one starter and about 5 main meals. I order fish and chips and wife sitloin steak sandwich medium cooked. Food arrived ver quickly and the grease on the plate waved at me.It was grease grease everywhere.Chips were not half cooked.it had to go back. Wifes steak was obviously well done.it wasnt a sandwich it had one piece of bread and chips again half cooked.Its a pity have eat here twice before and was lovely.sorry i now will not go back.Owner needs to ask serious questions of a chef who in a place like newcastle renounrd for sea food they are serving frozen fish.

Thank you to all the staff who made our wedding day fabulous. Donna kept me calm before the ceremony and Lee, Sonia, Jessica and the rest of the team were very efficient and friendly. All of our guests commented on the beautiful venue with stunning views of the Mourne mountains as the backdrop and that the dinner was delicious. The staff couldn't have been more helpful with some last minute setting up of the outside area, where the ceremony was taking place. All in all a great wedding venue, fantastic staff and delicious food. We would highly recommend this as a venue for your wedding.

My daughter and i had lunch here today but had to ask 2 different waitresses to clean table as it was all wet stains and this took some time to materialize yet not even half of the tables were occupied and plenty of staff walking about - thought tables should be cleaned when clearing table - no sign of sanitising tables or seats plus waitress with english accent walking about with mask hanging from ear and not covering her mouth - we are still in a pandemic!! Food was good both had battered haddock though service was slow despite plenty of staff ?? Not sure if i would return as cleanliness a major issue here

Might be dog friendly but definitely not people friendly. Called in after hearing they were highly rated as a dog friendly restaurant in the town - arrived in and queued behind another few people who were waiting at the bar - however just as it was our turn 2 men arrived in skipped the queue and got served by what I assume was the manager and we got totally ignored as the other staff stood cleaning glasses - finally got served and told to have a seat, and a waitress would be with us - which she was only to make a fuss of the dog and say hello then wandered off without so much as a second glance at us. We sat for 20 minutes trying to get someone's attention so we could order a drink and food but noone came near us - as the only people sitting inside, we weren't hard to miss. Ended up walking out and leaving - not that they noticed. Would agree with the comments that unless your a regular you aren't getting served. Wouldn't rate and definitely won't be going back again.

Rude staff member with shaven head (possibly manager too) basically shouted at us to wear masks. Attitude and tone was cocky and aggressive. Then when I purchased drinks, not even a thank you. £5 pint in a half litre plastic glass, this is now twice I have found reason to write a review on McCann's bar and restaurant. Unfortunately both are not good. Beautiful place but poor manners from staff in recent visit and bad food on previous. I got married here 5 years ago about 150 people and booked the whole venue. My nephew got married here under my recommendation. I've rented accommodation belonging to this firm on central promenade along with other family to give Mc'Canns the business. Sunday carvery regularly before lockdown. So there has been £1000s spent. Well that's me done.
