I've used this place many times to sit in and take out. The food is very high quality but I think a little bit expensive. However, you get what you pay for. Staff are excellent and a wide variety of hot and cold dishes are available. Highly recommend a visit.

Have used Knotts for some time now always enjoying lovely food and great service. However on a recent visit I was so disappointed at level of service. Early morning 920 so not the the usual ques due to how popular this place is. No ques but also no service! I waited with tray in hand and items but no one from counter approached me for rest of order. This went on for a while with at least 4 team members passing me by without even a glance. Knotts has built such a reputation for it's product base over many years but with staff giving this level of service it will take more than great products to sustain in a competitive market place. Needless to say I left without placing an order on this occasion. Hopefully the new owners will share this with their team who were on duty on Mon morning.

The Knott family built this business up from scratch into the best bakery/cafe business in the Ards and N Down area. However, since the Corry family took over the business it has moved up a step and is still, by far, the best in A&ND area.

Three of us went here on a Thursday at lunchtime, big mistake..... It was packed and the noise wasn't good. It's a beautiful place with lovely food, though I think it's a bit pricey for a sandwich 🥪 which was 3 cheeses mixed together cut in triangles in a box.

We were making a trip to Newtownards to get some things and before we left we wanted to get something to eat. The fella in the shop recommended to try cafe closed to them. Just to clarify the bakery is at the front & the cafe is down at the back. They were busy, there was a lady at the door asking if we wanted the bakery or the Cafe. We got in ordered and got a table no problem. Have to say the lunch was lovely and both of us would definitely eat here again. Barry & Sharon 👍👌

Want a change of menu? Had Chinese, Indian, Italian, and all the local food? Well what about Dutch? A very interesting and different menu for any meal. Generous helpings of quality food, in Netherlands style; and served by friendly people who give the customer attention and the young waitress who served us was exceedingly nice too. The tray bakes were also delightful, as well as the cooked food. I recommend trying this interesting place for a change; and probably, like me, and those I was with, you will want to return again, and try some other delightful items on the menu.
