We visited Newcastle for the Irish Open and The Maghera Inn was recommended to us. We visited the restaurant and were delighted that we did. It was the best meal we had in years. The food, service and hospitality was wonderful. We loved it and highly recommend it.

The Maghera Inn is confusing if you haven't been there before. The Inn is a bar and restaurant and the carpark is at the back. The carpark has three sides so you're not always aware how busy it is. The bar part is quite dark and if you would like food you have to wait to be seated. The restaurant at the back has lots of windows. The bar part less so. As it had a number of reservations, we were seated in the darker bar part. The chicken stack and the cheesy topped Guinness and steak pie were good. Service was fine but reserved.

Sea bass was chosen as a main course by 3 of the group. However it was overcooked and had dried out. We were there late in the evening and choices were limited. Will return to Maghera Inn and hopefully the kitchen will have a better evening. Selection of wines is quiet limited.There is a lovely bar attached to the restaurant and we had live music on our visit.

Visited here for lunch over Easter and the bar is lovely and the staff very friendly and welcoming when we arrived. The food was a real let down though with bog standard fare for all four of us with very little flavour or imagination and from a fairly limited and small menu. I ordered a ranch burger which was described as having pulled beef on it so sounded nice. What arrived was a big burger which was very dense and had no seasoning so was bland and just filled a gap, the advertised pulled beef was in fact what looked like a processed goo like you might get out of a tube and was disgusting and certainly wasn't pulled beef ?? kids meals were basic run of the mill stuff and my wife`s chilli chicken sizzler came out far from sizzling and was just cut up cheap breaded chicken in a sweet chilli sauce. I would stop here for a drink as its a lovely place but I wouldnt eat here again.

Love this place! Went over the Easter bank holiday weekend and it didn't disappoint. Beautiful wee spot with really nice interior features. Pretty busy as one would expect so I'd advise booking in advance to avoid disappointment. We were seated within moments of arriving and our drinks order was pretty speedy which is always a plus for me. Got the burger and it was so tasty and came with side salad and coleslaw which was a nice touch. Portion sizes are very generous given how reasonably priced it is. To finish I got the sticky toffee pudding on the recommendation of a member of staff and omg it was unreal! I've never tasted a dessert like it Overall it's a lovely restaurant with friendly attentive staff and I'll definitely be back

We had family visiting from Canada and booked Copper for 9 June 2022, it was a fabulous meal from start to finish. Service was excellent and so cheerful. Steak & lobster surf & turf outstanding, in fact all the meal was for all 8 of us. Highly recommend and we will definitely be back

Can’t say enough about this fantastic little gem. Dined here a few weeks ago with friends and had a wonderful whole Dover sole, cooked to perfection. We decided that we would like to come back and try one of Roy’s tasting menus and we were not disappointed. We had six totally delicious Indian themed courses each one cooked authentically and to perfection and served in a really creative way. The service was excellent with just enough time in between to enjoy each course. Roy, who does all the cooking to order, is really passionate about his restaurant and his choice of menus ,and Julie , front of house is so welcoming and friendly , they do make a great team. Unfortunately I don’t have any photos of our food as I was focused solely on savouring the meal. Thanks to Roy and Julie for a really lovely evening.

Called into this bar with my family for the football final. Was told on entrance it’s a “mixed bar/public house” When England came on the tv they actually turned off the sound for the national anthem which is sick. So I sang it at my table and got told off? Also when England scored we got told to “pipe down” yet when Spain scored not a word was mentioned. The wee boy who worked behind the bar was an absolute sour bake. When ordering drinks he gave so much attitude I actually had to report him. The one bar tender was lovely, chatted away all night. But as for the rest of the staff there still living in the 70s Definatley not a mixed bar and 90% of the staff need an attitude check. It’s football get over it Guiness was decent tho Won’t be back

Used to be big lovers of Docs and its food but it just hasn't been the same since its makeover in May 2024. It has lost its way a little bit, it doesn't know exactly what it is. It used to be a combined fish and chips takeway with dinning in, but it now aims itself as a restaurant experience but with the same expectations. Menu options are now not what they used to be, no battered options on menu other than fish for example. And when customisations or variations are requested we got told a hard no, the chef doesn't accomdate changes so the kitchen is no longer as accommodating as it used to be. Also, as others have said, service is very slow and staff are very by the book. We waited close to an hour for our three mains, all of which were straight off the menu as no customisations were allowed as I said, so no excuses. As I said we used to be big lovers of Docs but unfortunately for them there are many other options now available along the main, including some great pubs, that do much better food and service. I just can't really figure out any what Docs is anymore with regard to its identify, food and service.
