Inn on the Coast in Coleraine

The receptionist was really nice and helpful. Rooms are really big and comfy. And it’s right by the coast.

As a tour guide travelling all the time, I had the pleasure of staying in this facility. Excellent dinner and breakfast, wonderful views. Fabulous staff, big shout out to the chef!!

Booked a table for 7pm, arrived early and was seated without any issues. I would say the menu isn’t extensive but enough of a choice. Service was very good as were the meals.

Had a fantastic meal in this restaurant with my family. Was dog friendly too. Has a section in the restaurant where you can bring in your dog. Lovely surrounding scenery too.

Great setting on north coast and nice decor. A little pricey on drink but all in all a good place for a few drinks

Stayed in Feb 24 for my Wife's birthday on a 2n1d deal. We've been several times before and always enjoyed the experience and looked foward to the evening meal. Unfortunately we were disappointed on this occasion. Not a 'fan' of a recently introduced 'new menu' and could not recommend. I had more fingers on one hand than chips on my plate!

Great value for money. Just booked on the spur of the moment. Room spacious & comfortable. Great food in the bistro. Staff just lovely all so very welcoming.

Staff were all lovely, room was clean and very spacious but place lacks character. Room was very big although TV was too small for all to see and the dark paint didn't help. Breakfast was great! Loads of variety and very well cooked. Dinner was dismal. Really disappointing. Would stay again but wouldn't consider eating there.

Great, very reasonably-priced place to stay. Staff, facilities and rooms are lovely, loads of parking. VERY dog-friendly. Remember to phone as you can't book pets online. Breakfast was excellent with lots of choices and fast, super-friendly service. Lovely, spacious rooms with big bathroom and lots of fluffy towels. We opted for the 2 course dinner which was disappointing but there is another place just along the road that made up for that. Would definitely go back.

Would highly recommend this place staff where friendly. Got seated quickly and also drink came so quickly. The food was amazing the portions where super will definitely be back .

I have stayed here several times over the years with dogs. I stayed recently and was a bit disappointed. Breakfast used to be brilliant - very poor quality now. Reception staff - some good - some not very friendly. It is dog friendly but to be honest the hotel is very run down since the last time I stayed - at the price they charge they need to update. I suppose it's since COVID and staff are hard to get these days. The dog enjoyed her stay 😊

My family and I stayed for 2 nights last week. Room/bed was clean but the room was very run down. Do not eat in the restaurant I ordered a burger which cost me £19 just for the burger and it was like a McDonald's burger, very overpriced menu and not nice food. The breakfast is awful and the breakfast staff are not very pleasant seemed like they don't want to be there and not very helpful. Our room had a constant humming noise like the sound of a generator on all day and night which kept us awake both nights plus the outside lighting coming through the window made the room light up quite badly. The hotel is very run down and I know it's dog friendly, but you can smell dog everywhere. I would not recommend this place to anyone. No option to give no stars cause it is not worth any.

Great spot for dogs. Although it was a little cold in the dog friendly part

Great location with friendly people there. Only downside is the room has a smell(bearable though)

Stayed one night b&b, it was my 1st time here and absolutely loved it, rooms were excellent, staff very helpful and breakfast was delicious and good choices available. Will definitely be back again soon.

Perfect location and dog friendly hotel

Great value for money and service greatly appreciated and friendly atmosphere and great staff friendly service much appreciated. Tara 🐕‍🦺

Popped in for a drink to catch up with a friend. Dogs welcome but not through the front door - walk around the back! Staff welcoming and got the dog a drink of water too! Otherwise no fuss and no issues

Very good experience. The food was excellent and the beer on tap was cold. My partner and I both had steak and Guinness pie that was really tasty and well-prepared, and our son had prawn linguine that the Chef kindly prepared with less chilli than advertised on the menu, at our request. The prices were average for the hotels and restaurants in the area. We benefitted from a reduced price for a 2 course meal by taking an early sitting between 4 and 6pm.

We ordered a few starters to share between the kids. Everything was lukewarm and I sent some of it back. After complaining to the manager, he came over and apologised and said it's because they only had two chefs on. Not really my problem, and not an excuse for food that awful. The prices are a rip off too and certainly above the average for the area. In my opinion, this place is a bit of a tourist trap: go have a drink, enjoy the views, but don't order any food. You'll regret it.

food just ok service very poor then to find out I was being ripped of with the drinks prices i.e. 6.40 for a pint of heineken it's only 5 euros in dublin and we are trying to encourage tourism to the north coast not when we have greedy people like this and his crew dick turpin and crew oh no he wore a mask when robbing

We did not stay at the hotel but booked a table for an evening meal in the restaurant, our second meal there this week. We were a party of seven in total. All of us ordered different dishes and all meals were perfect. The service was excellent - really friendly staff making everyone feel special. I didn’t catch the names of all those that served us but Leon and Imogen did stand out as being particularly attentive and good at their jobs. With food and staff this good, we will be back again.

Myself and friends stayed in June, The Staff were very accommodating and arranged a downstairs room for us as my friend just couldnt do stairs at that time.. This was the second time we have stayed here and it didnt dissapoint lovely relaxed atmosphere cosy dining and wonderful staff who made us feel at home just what we needed to recharge thank you so much for a great stay see ya next year.

Stayed at the hotel and we didn’t intend to have our evening meal here but are glad we did. The food is pub grub style, really fresh and delicious. We had chicken pakora, scampi and salmon – and couldn’t fault it. The staff are really friendly and attentive and the service is excellent. Dog friendly too (in a separate part of the restaurant, away from diners without dogs)

This is a great wee place to grab pub grub type of food. Service is really friendly and the location is great to campsites along the road which is how we found the place. Dogs are very welcome and can sit with you while you eat in the pet area which is separate from the other restaurant seated area. This is a real bonus for pet lovers. The outside area at the front or back of the hotel is a nice place to sit and have a drink too during the day. A friendly and very nice place to go. Prices are reasonable and we always enjoy our visits here when up in Portrush camping.

First time here and had a great time.Rooms were clean the food was very good,had dinner and it was very nice,the breakfast was also very nice.Dog friendly

How to get a Chicken Cesar Salad wrong... By leaving out the Chicken 🙄 Nice staff, helpful & friendly. Maybe clueless chef?????

Hidden gem most people drive by. New menu and didn’t disappoint. Lots of choice, Lots more burger, veggie and pasta options. Pets welcome in back bar and even given treats. Staff attentive. Big TV in back bar showing BT sport. Book to avoid disappointment at weekends.

I must say - another lovely evening at Inn on the Coast! We had relaxing drinks after a lovely 2 mile coastal walk, then dinner. What great professional service (and advice on gin and keeping fit and healthy too!) from the waiter named Stuart. Your friendly (but not “in your face”!) approach was wonderful. You are such a great asset to that team. We will definitely return for another enjoyable chilled evening at your restaurant guys. Thank you to you all, including the chefs for the hearty feed too!

this was our fourth time at the inn we enjoyed each time great restaurant/ brill breakfast/ the staff are very helpful i must say the inns rooms are big and very comfortable great location for everything the only thing that let it down this trip was the cleaners for the rooms they did not make the beds on a saturday and on sunday they did not leave fresh towels. we told reception they opologised and would look into it PS this did not put us off and will be back

What a place!!! Our first trip away with our wee dog - absolutely brilliant couldn’t do enough for us! Dog friendly areas for breakfast and evening meals and the staff without exception were excellent!! Really recommend a visit!!!

Excellent food. We were allotted a dog friendly table. Doggie was given water and treats. He could have had a chicken casserole. Nice surroundings and separate bar area. Would go again

My wife and I went there last Saturday as I had a voucher to use up.years since I had been there Shown to our table by a nice gentleman.The restaurant had quite a few diners in .Ramesh the ass general manager took our order.My wife had chicken breast with mash,I had Scampi with chips and a Caesar salad.Everything was cooked perfectly,and piping hot.The best meal we have had around here in ages.Lovely food and great service.A lot better than the food we had in Villa the previous week.We will be returning to Inn on the coast soon.

Often drove past - called in today and so glad we did. Food was excellent and staff so friendly and welcoming. Don’t know why we didn’t call in before. Also back bar/restaurant is dog friendly as is the hotel. Highly recommended.

Went for a weekend break with our little boy Alfie, (Pup) First time there, staff wonderful, hotel clean, tidy, food excellent, our room was amazing ,Staff very understanding and their work (Priceless) such lovely people, will definitely be back 💖

We didn't eat here, but did enjoy some drinks during our two-night stay. While the inside area is very delightful and inviting, the gem is being able to sit on the outside patio, if the weather is cooperating, of course! There isn't an extensive spirits inventory here, but regardless, the bartender was very friendly and accommodating. Definitely a great option, especially if staying at the adjoining Inn!

We could not have been looked after better. Every member of staff bent over backwards to make our visit exceptional. The hotel was very full but the staff moved tables around to cater for a party of 12 on our first evening staying there for dinner. The next night was a 50th birthday for one of our party and they cordoned off an area for us. The food was fantastic and the service even better. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Room was just right and bar was well stocked with a great outdoor patio overlooking the seaside and golf course(no idea which one). Breakfast was included and offered a nice variety. Wold definately stay here agan.

Good selection of food while not being too many - food was hot and well presented. Breakfast if you are staying here is freshly cooked and nothing is too much trouble.

Planned for a brief visit with one small ppetet.

Date night! Food was bomb! Staff were so friendly and kind! Lime Mayo is a hit with the Cajun Chicken Goujons! Will be back for sure!

5 of us dinned at Inn on the Coast last night. The food was poor quality with little flavour. I personally ordered the ‘tiger’ prawns and buffalo chicken wings... the ‘tiger’ prawns were frozen shrimp and the buffalo sauce was... creamy!? Honestly a terrible texture and flavour.

We ate here for dinner. Very friendly service, though very slow to take our order. However, food arrived very promptly after this. Husband had the tandoori chicken which he loved. I had the fish and chips - triple cooked chips could have done with a bit longer as some weren't cooked and the vinegar was very watery! (Random but true!). Would try it again as it's very handy location wise.

Staff from we entered were very helpful, when booked in afternoon with receptionist she gave us menus to take away to save time in evening. At meal which was lovely staff could not do enough for our party. Would recommend. We did not stay in hotel.

We had dinner at this restaurant as we were staying there.

Visited at Easter and more recently start of June. Staff very friendly, good set up for people travelling with dogs and overall a very friendly establishment.

I've been to this Inn a few times now and its a good little bar and very very child friendly . Its brilliant seeing such a wide variety of well behaved dogs there too and they are like pied pipers to my kids who absolutely loved spending time there which obviously suited me too .

To be fair this place has some nice staff but the food is not good. Very bland, tasteless and not a lot of it. Definitely a place I will be avoiding in future. Good point is the drink was cool and refreshing!!

The food was lovely well presented and the service was great a big well done to everyone who is involved in the hotel

I visited the Inn on the Coast on Saturday with a friend and out two dogs. The hotel is in a great location for dog walks. We walked into the Portrush harbor and back and it was a beautiful walk by the promenade. The rooms in the hotel are very spacious, we were in the back of the hotel which was ideal with having the dogs as its beside the entrance and handy for nipping in and out. My only judgement is that there was only one radiator in this huge room and so it wasn't the warmest. The staff and food in the dog friendly bar was excellent and I would like to mention Fiona who was an absolute Gem and a credit to the hotel. We will definitely be back again. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Dinner was really good - had the fish with extra tartare sauce and my wife had the steak which was beautiful.

Had a couple off lovely days here,lovely clean and comfortable hotel ,food was excellent and staff friendly,will be back

2 couples with a dog each and our first time trying a break with the dogs. The hotel is so dog friendly, staff are great and make a great fuss of the dogs. Food is also great, good breakfast and we had dinner there both nights. Would definitely recommend & will stay again.

lovely clean breakfast room with adequate food for all tastes. Cooked breakfast served to your table by very friendly efficient staff. Loved it

This was our 2nd choice for this visit but would be our first next time. Pluses: Very reasonable room and food prices, friendly competent staff, delicious breakfast included in the room price, cliff walk across the street. Negatives: None I can think of. Highly recommended.

We didn't have a booking and arrived late in the evening. The restaurant was full, but we had a drink and got a table after a short wait only. The food and service were very good. Would recommend booking.

We had lunch here and the food was nice I had the wedges with chilli and sour cream a bit on the dear side got about 7 wedges with a drizzle of chilli sauce and a small pot of sour cream. My wife got a toastie which was nice a handful of rocket and some nachos with sweet chilli sauce which seemed had an overpowering garlic taste. The kids meals were a bit on the dear sided at £6 each. My oldest son got penne pasta which he really enjoyed. My youngest son got sausages beans and chunky chips which he enjoyed. The house tap beer is really good. Overall nice meal which was made better with the excellent service.

We were lucky to get a seat as this restaurant is obviously popular. Service was good as was the food. Seems to be also dog friendly like the hotel.

After we finally got to see the Giant's Causeway, we returned to our hotel for a late (for us) dinner. We weren't very hungry so Hubby ordered nachos and I got the Caesar salad. The nachos were different than what we get in the US, but still good. Not as spicy, but ingredients were fresh. The Caesar, unfortunately, was saturated with dressing. It was tough to eat. I ate what I could. I was in a good mood because it was my birthday and I enlisted the help of our server, Niall, to suggest a dessert to celebrate. We decided on a sticky toffee pudding (my first) with both cream and ice cream. It was delicious and I can't wait to try another one. Niall was instrumental in making the birthday meal a success. His performance raised the rating one star.

Stated two nights and had brilliant sleep. Staff were wonderful. Breakfast was ok, we had booked dinner for two nights but we're disappointed with the meal on first night

I had a lovely meal here. The service was friendly and efficient. The drinks are reasonably priced too. The food is lovely. I had 2 courses which was more than enough.

Just had a lovely 2 coarse meal this afternoon after visiting Portsewart. Very warm friendly welcome was given to us and our westie Jack. Food and service was wonderful thank you for your warm hospitality.

Inn on the Coast is very well located ,between Portrush and Port Stewart

Very low standard of food. When asked how my food was I was honest and told them that it was very dry. Staff member did not take this comment well and both my wife and I were teated very badly by very rude staff members (including management) for the rest of the evening.

Went here for dinner with my hubby and our 9 month old son. We hadn't booked but we were given a lovely table. I had the steak and Guinness pie with garlic chips and my hubby had fish and chips and the baby had a baby bowl which was huge. The waitress Jane was so lovely to our son and very pleasant. We will be back and will definitely opt for the bigger glass of wine next time because it was lovely ;)

Dog friendly area in the bar where you can sit and enjoy a drink and a meal. Very good food ........Nacho starter was over priced though

I was a hotel guest at the Inn on the Coast for almost a week (which was quite pleasant), but because I was golfing the whole week I actually managed to eat at the hotel restaurant only once..... which hindsight was good.

Called into Inn on the Coast for a meal at the weekend. First impressions it was ok needed a bit of an update in decor table needed a good clean. Our order was taken but found it a bit strange to be asked what side order with the beer battered fish assumed it would be chips my husband ordered the southern fried chicken burger and chips. The food came even after two tables which came in after us had got their food. It was just ok not much taste from the fish and the excuse for garnish would have been better left in the bin. My husband got the burger which was overcooked. When the bill arrived we noticed the chips were charged as extra so the fish with a few mashed peas was £11 and the burger was £12.50 a bit excessive when we added on £5.50 for the side orders. Won't be in a hurry back. Staff were very nice.

Called in here with family one evening during the NW week. We enjoyed sitting in the back bar where the pool tables are as we had a little two year old with us and there is plenty of space. He sat happily in his buggy watching the motorbike racing on the TV screen. The staff were excellent, really brilliant. We had a drink and then a meal. We enjoyed the food except for my husband who ordered the pork belly. I think he just made the wrong choice from the menu. The Kiddies meal looked lovely. We were staying in the caravan park nearby and we walked to the Inn on the Coast and back again. This bar/restaurant is really handy to the caravan park. There is a good atmosphere and the place is lovely and clean,

We checked in to this hotel and was greeted by lovely reception staff who could not do enough for us. Room was lovely and spacious, although a bit dated you could tell there was an on going programme to refurbish.

Stayed at the Inn for a couple of nights, my first time. I’m not one of the doggy brigade but the Inn caters for both with separate areas. People who travel with their pooches are able to stay with them 24/7, others like me can enjoy the restaurant and main bar area doggy free.

The food was very good but the service stole the show. The server was prompt, attentive and extremely kind. The prices were a little on the higher side but not crazy.

There is a dog friendly room set aside at the back of the bar which is why we ended up here. They have somewhat unusual opening hours so you may want to check when they are open. Service was friendly but the room at the back was cold and the food was just disappointing. We had the nachos and the chicken goujons, the nachos were ok but nothing wow about them but the chicken was really poor firstly in terms of price £11.50 for 6 goujons no side. We had to order chips in addition, it was a meagre portion for the price. They were tasteless too.

I have eaten here several times now whist out for day trips around the ports. It has become my place of choice for dinner. Having tried several other spots the Inn on the Coast always deliver. Good range of food, comfortable seating, excellent service and very good value. I have visited with small family groups and large groups of friends and children and they always cope very well. I have not stayed the night but I looked around the hotel and look forward to staying sometime if the experiences I have had in the bar/restaurant are anything to go by.

Really friendly place. We had steak and it was so perfectly done-one of the best we have ever had! So compliments ot the chef.

Had a great stay here, such a lovely cosy place to stay. Staff are so welcoming. Rooms are perfect and so spacious. Food is gorgeous and the bar area is so relaxing. Would definately book here again. Close to amenities in portrush but far enuf away if you want peace and quiet.

Di per sé il locale non è nulla di particolare, si tratta del ristorante annesso ad una Inn che porta lo stesso nome...ma il personale è davvero carinissimo e il cibo è buono...consiglio la tipica zuppa Chowder di pesce e il merluzzo tempura. Molto buono il rapporto qualita-prezzo.

I visited on a weekend with my partner for a celebration meal. There were plenty of spare tables which was unusual for a Sat night. The menu was quite basic and reasonably well priced. Staff were friendly but not overly professional. The food was acceptable. Good for families with children but not really great for a special night out. Local restaurants in the vicinity where packed out.

Have not stayed here but have used the restaurant regularly and have yet to be disappointed. Serves an excellent pint of Guinness.

Just arrived today don't want to leave staff very friendly staying in family room beautiful never seem a room as big. Looking forward to the next few days!

Stopped here on chance. Very busy but member of staff got us a table after a very short wait. Staff very welcoming and friendly. You must try the seafood chowder. It was the best we've ever tasted and we have had quite a few!!

Darren, qué hombre encantador! Cuidó muy bien y nos hizo un mojito de frambuesa! Muchas gracias, nos hicieron sentir muy bienvenidos!

Estado aquí mucho por un par de copas, un ambiente fantástico, de los niños y mascotas no hay ninguna diferencia. El personal de la recepción absolutamente magnífico. Así que decidimos comer. Así que tuve una lasaña, era caliente y la presentación era buena. Sin embargo no había sabor, fue Misa del gallo, queso y pasta, sin sabor. La Sra. tomó carne y Guinness tarta de hojaldre. Carecía totalmente de sabor y una franja de repostería, y no estaba preparado. Los más jóvenes preguntó a su madre era un rollo roto salchichas. Chicos que un establecimiento de brillante, la necesidad de obtener la comida se ordenan.

Comida no tuve que esperar mucho en todo y muy amable personal. Volvería. Ambiente agradable

El barman y camarero, fue realmente genial. La comida era deliciosa y el ambiente era muy tranquilo. No puedo esperar a volver. Yo no quería marcharme.

We had excellent food and service here. Also, a stunning view of the sunset over the ocean. The waitstaff was attentive and charming.

Ordered the cod fish and steak both very tasty. Potato wedges and onion rings were good too. Reasonable price

On Saturday 13th May, this mediocrity wanted £30 a head just to get in !! Trying to cash in on the NW200. Boycott the place !!

Soggiornando nell'hotel abbiamo provato alla sera anche il ristorante. Ottima scelta perchè la carne era buona, ma il merluzzo in tempura addirittura fantastico (il merluzzo proviene proprio da Portrush). Buoni i dolci e prezzo assolutamente competitivo.

What a lovely place to stay. From the moment we walked through the door to the moment we left, every member of of staff was friendly and helpful. A special mention has to go to Darren who served us our evening meal. Very charming and attentive. The food was delicious and well presented. Our room was very clean, comfortable and warm, what more could you ask for. Breakfast the next morning was once again delicious and served quickly. I would just like to make one final comment, to anyone reading these reviews, when you see comments about dogs in the hotel it might put you of if you're not a great dog lover, please don't be. Firstly dog are kept on leads and secondly not a dog hair in sight. This place is spotless.

I'm writing this from the point of view of a dog owner.Other places will allow dogs, or welcome them. The Inn on the Coast positively encourages them. The hotel has been divided up in such a way that there are specific rooms for folk with dogs, and a separate bar/restaurant where dogs are welcomed.The rooms are as well appointed and presented as those reserved for non-dog owners. The two bars serve the same menu, are similarly set up, and adjoin one another. There is no sense here that dog owners are second class citizens. Staff on reception, in the bar, and at breakfast were charming, welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was excellent and evening meals were delicious. Room was comfy and cosy. Really couldn't find fault with anything. We loved it and it's No.1 on our list of places to revisit.

The Good:1. Located away from busy roads and a short walk to the coast2. Clean and comfortable3. Ideally located to drive to nearby attactions e.g. Giant's causeway4. Good restuarants nearbyThe Bad:1. Bar and restuarant only open few days a week

Great place to stay. Looks a bit shabby from the outside but don't be put off. Staff very friendly, spacious rooms, everywhere clean and tidy. Also, great breakfast and reasonable price.

We went to the Inn on the Coast for tea and the food was excellent I had chicken gougons and my husband had gammon and as you can see from the photos very tasty The service is always friendly and anything you want the girls with get it for you Can't wait to go back

Wife bought a 2 night stay for us and our wee dog as this is a dog friendly hotel... happy days! We had tea on the first night and was excellent! I had sausage and mash, best I've had and wife had tempura cod and chips, also beautiful.. staff were very attentive and helpful, our first time here but not the last for sure..

Stayed here with my partner for a nights break. Bar and restaurant onsite so we didnt have to venture out in the bad weather. Room was very spacious, warm and clean. Food was delicious and service was second to none, both within the restaurant and at reception. We had a full breakfast included for a smashing price which again included great food and great service. We will definitely be back!

Don't be fooled by the grey exterior to the building - inside it is warm and welcoming with good sized rooms, pleasant staff and a brilliant breakfast. Really good value too. Some traffic noise from the road outside is the only real negative.

We arrived at the Inn somewhat late in the evening and were relieved to find that the pub was still open. We had a delicious meal with great service!

The food and service in the restaurant was excellent. We used the back restaurant as we had our dog with us and she was allowed into this area. The restaurant was very comfortable and the staff were very pleasant, helpful and nice to the dog, bringing her a bowl of water.

Staff very friendly and helpful. Room clean and tidy. Mattress (room 207) would benefit from "refreshing" as would the pillows. Good breakfast with plenty of choice. Nice meals in the bar. Plenty of things to see and do around the area.
