Maddens Bar & Restaurant in Antrim

After visiting this place. It has completely put me off visiting antrim as an English man ever again. Locals DO NOT like the English and made me feel extremely uncomfortable just because of where I am from. If you're visiting. Don't go here. Go to Ballymena or Belfast instead. The people are much nicer

A great pub with a nice selection of dishes. The service was great and the seating area was comfortable. They have a really nice beer garden that overlooks the river

Fantastic Sunday roast. Thick slices of beef, Yorkshire pud roast potatoes, creamy mash, 5 veg. Plenty gravy. It didn't stop there fab deserts. Will be back.

We frequent this bar most weekends live in glengormley got to know the staff. Food was fabulous. Unfortunately this weekend the food was not up to the standard. Have you got a new chef?

Food and drink and bar staff and customers brilliant 👏

First time in this restaurant. Everything was first class, food, service, price. Definitely will be back . Big menu lots of options.

Nice atmosphere pleasant staff and a decent pint.

Magic 🎩 place to relax. Great atmosphere, friendly staff. Great food, only problem... the portions are too large for Me 😆

Very nice place. Enjoyed the live music and people were friendly. Will be back again🙏🏻💯 Thank you

Best pub grub in Antrim Very reasonably priced and staff are lovely always so friendly & attentive.

Looks like a good place to go at the weekend. We went on a Saturday afternoon noon and it looked well.

Super Christmas dinner. Could not fault anything Highly recommended

Love this bar. Stops serving food on weekdays at 4pm or is give it 5 star all round

Came here for staff drinks, was so much bigger than I expected, lovely staff and a great atmosphere

First time in Madden's. Quirky bar friendly staff and food was lovely !! Will definitely be back 👍

Good food at a reasonable price, staff all friendly although it was a Friday afternoon it was pretty busy I'd imagine it would be good at the weekend nice pint of Guinness to would definitely come back if in the Antrim area again

All of the above. Couldn't fault food, service or atmosphere, any time we've been in.

We popped in for lunch one Monday afternoon whilst waiting for a flight from the airport. Beautiful pub with a lovely little beer garden out back and fantastic tasty and cheap food. Loved it

I can't have a high enough opinion of this place. Soo friendly, very welcoming and bursting with character. This was midweek. On weekends, it has a huge upstairs area with a pool table but you're sure to find an atmosphere no matter what.

Was at a quiz night ,great service great atmosphere

On route to Belfast International airport we nipped in here in Saturday evening for tea. Delicious burgers, great service and lovely atmosphere.

The staff are great. Best burger in Antrim.

Lovely Sunday Roast dinner, big portions, good value and friendly, helpful staff and a good atmosphere

Lovely traditional pub with a good menu, food was well presented and plentiful

Had fish and chips, really good

Musique bruyante, service lent et pauvre. Publicité d'un groupe de musique mais inexistant

Food was outstanding as usual, lovely staff, & lovely owners ☺️

Was surreal walking into Maddens after leaving Antrim 26 years ago! Quiet pint and decent food. Place hasn't lost its charm.

Great family run business. Staff friendly .great service and great food

Definitely going back as soon as I get to Antrim next month! Beautiful bar.

Spot on for a lunch date, or a great night's craic.

Called in for lunch on Saturday around 12 noon, I hadn't been in Maddens for food in years. I have to day it was the best lunch I've had in a long time, the peppered burger and salt and chilli chips were unreal. Best burger I've had in a long time. 3 meals and a kids meal plus drinks came to just over £40, the same 3 meals and a kids meal cost more in the chippy and one is a sit down restaurant meal and the other a takeaway. We will definitely be back. Unreal guys.

A big thank you to Rose and staff for a fantastic service for service users and families of the Base. The food went down a treat. Great job guys x

Our first time in Antrim Town and we called in here for lunch. Food was amazing and really great value too. All of the staff are very friendly and helpful, so would definitely come here again and would highly recommend to others!!

Watched the final day of the season here. Only gripe is that they did not show the Leeds United game. I only came in to watch there fans crying!

Just in for a quick pint after an Indian meal. It was buzzing and a singer was being ignored at the front....making it very loud on top of the boxing on the TV.

Excellent fish and chips, huge portions. Great service.

Cracking wee bar, friendly staff and great food. Would definitely return

Toooooooooooooo sloooooooioooooowwwwww

I would highly recommend maddens bar and restaurant..my partner and I called in for lunch on Easter Monday.lovely interior...friendly staff..excellent food ..definitely worthy of the five stars .Next time in antrim will be back ..

Called in for lunch, bit of a wait for food but honestly couldn't fault it. Obviously cooked fresh to order, would definitely go back.

One of the Gems in Antrims crowns with a great pint and good clientele. The staff and owners are so friendly

Only gave 2 stars for atmosphere as it was really cold in the lounge, food and staff were both excellent, however the cold in the lounge really spoilt our experience.

Maddens bar definitely gets a 5star, a real all round pub weather I go for a family meal with the kids or a good night out with the girls the atmosphere is welcoming in the afternoon and electric by the night, the food is delicious pub grub! I've honesty made so many amazing memories here!! ❤️

Brilliant customer service, helped me when I broke my knee, always so friendly and Michael takes such lovely pictures of everyone having a good time. One of the best places to hit on a night out 🤙

Called I before Christmas for a meal with family. Was quiet but staff very polite & attentive. Food choice was good, portion size good also. My meal was very enjoyable & the others all enjoyed theirs but were unable to finish. Will definitely go again, and very happy to recommend.

Maddens is a warm, family friendly bar and restauraunt. The staff are all superb and the food is homemade and always delicious, never a dull moment. I havr tried many dishes fron their menu. The prices on the menu is extremley reasonable. The only downside is there is no baby changing facilities but apart from this 10/10 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Awesome lunch would be hard to beat :)

Colin and I had a excellent meal on St Valatine Night ..Great Service. Great Staff Great Portions ..we had a wonderful relaxing evening.....We will be back...Thank You to all At Madden"s Bar and Restaurant

Awesome people and food and local friendly bar best people in Antrim!!. Bar Staff second too nun!!

Great atmosphere 💃 amazing food.

Cosy local bar/restaurant. Nice front bar with great open fire 🔥 and great bar/restaurant next door with plenty of seating for meals. Big TVs for sports or entertainment and a pool table upstairs too. Nice friendly staff who are always helpful and I can't say enough about the outstanding food 🤤. My personal favourite is the Madden's burger with skinny fries 10/10 everytime but the chicken basket with fries is great too. Can pay by cash or card too which is always handy. But don't take my word for it, pop in and see for yourself 😁

My husband and I went here for lunch today,The food was excellent. As I am celiac was pleasantly surprised by the choices I was given. I will definitely be back, and the staff were very helpful, eager to serve enjoyable experience.

Fantastic Sunday lunch booked a big party in at short notice. Great value for money.

Great atmosphere, great people, great place.

Nice place with amazing garden, good service, smiling people, good prices.

Found this place on Google. Reviews were great so decided to have a visit to have some food and watch the football. Lovely food, front row seats watching the football and good value for money. If your ever in and around the area this is a must go place.

Was ok for a one off experience. Wouldn’t go again. Steak sandwich very good. Avoid the deep fried chicken, it’s very greasy and chips tasted greasy. Staff were great, friendly and helpful.

Nice plays ! My recommendation) And owner is nice gay )!

Cosy, comfortable, busy bar & restaurant

Food was nice , soft drinks was really small cup , fair price

Die Location ist sehr gemütlich und der offene Hof zum Fluss ist richtig schön. Man kann dort in Pavillons sitzen. Das Essen ist sehr gut. Die Bedienungen sind sehr nett. Wir waren mit sechs Personen dort und alle waren mit ihrem Essen sehr zufrieden.

Excellent food Great atmosphere Fantastic beer garden Very friendly staff & excellent service

Amazing place, nice food, nice drink, nice hospitality.

This pub is the best! Highly recommend here for the lovely, friendly staff who were very helpful in giving us tips on places to visit. Good music and excellent food freshly cooked to order. Nice clean toilets. Thank you Maddens for giving us such a warm welcome. Hope to see you again soon.

Excellent staff extremely helpful good food nice atmosphere had just arrived from Scotland staff couldn't have done enough

Great fish suppers. And nice whisky.

If you like Caeser salad Maddens is the place to go.I asked for tomatoes and red onions with mine and it was excellent 👌

The staff couldn't do enough for us and the entertainment was amazing! 😍😎

Myself and my wife called her for some late lunch after a hospital visit. Lovely girl served us out in the beer garden. Food was excellent and plenty of it.. We will return here for sure. NOW THAT IS FISH AND CHIPS

Great qee bar, excellent staff and some proper tasty pub grub. Very accomadting to your individual needs and there's a nice beer garden out back also. Good selection on the menu, chicken baskets very popular,.burgers are also very good the club sandwich or the steak sandwich will not disappoint very filling and they do a good fry. Always good music playing in the background and for those how enjoy their sports there are a few screens throughout the bar a lounge so take your pick, good all round Irish pub with a relaxed atmosphere great food, great service and great Craic.

We recently visited Maddens Bar and Restaurant while away for the weekend. We had the best time, the food is superb and the atmosphere is class! The staff all went above and beyond ro make our afternoon/evening a great experience. They are all a class act with a special mention to Rose, keeping us dry while we were dining outside. Thank you so much for everything, we will definitly be back! Highly recommend a visit!

Good food and extensive menu, attentive Staff and nice environment.

Stopped here for lunch while on a cycle round Lough Neagh. Had the fish and chips sitting in the river side beer garden. Great food quality will be back to sample more of the menu.
