Stopped for coffee break this morning. Not too many places open at this time of year especially early morning (9.30).location and atmosphere is nice and staff were pleasant. Unfortunately scones were not fresh -baked yesterday I would think. Coffee wasn’t that hot either cold long before I’d finished my scone. Lots of jam served but butter very hard and difficult to spread. No cream. Price was fine if food had been better

Honestly, it was such an amazing experience. We had come to stay in the hotel with a Dinner, Bed and Breakfast deal without knowing much and had zero expectations. Food was amazing and cocktail menu had a great selection and were awesome as well. Hats off to Deep who was running the show and Josh who was our server, and to all the other staff who were super attentive. Bistro was spotless and modern without being souless. 100% will return for another stay and meal.

I knew from my sister, who had stayed here during a walking holiday, we would not leave hungry. My starter of cod cheeks on noodles was so generous that if I had eaten the noodles I wouldn’t have been fit for a main course. My husband wisely did not have a starter but thoroughly enjoyed his roast beef. I had the turkey and ham which for once was not one of those awful preprepared packages with the stuffing in the middle. It tasted fresh and very good. I was not so keen on the panna cotta made with local yogurt but that is a matter of taste and it was homemade and fresh. The portion of cheesecake for my husband was enormous and delicious and made him very happy. We had a lovely time in Ballycastle in the sunshine and will return. I think the kitchen is trying hard to serve fresh local food and deserves a round of applause.

Having been to the restaurant numerous times, and always having great food and service, I booked to go to their September Friday Seafood menu. The meal started well, with our food and drinks order being taken quickly, and our starter being served. However, from there the evening went down hill. There was a protracted wait for our 'palate cleanser' and a further wait for the empty dishes to be removed. And we waited, and waited.............and waited. Eventually one of the waiters asked if we needed anything, and we said our main course please. Eventually our food arrived. A similar wait for our desserts to be served. Yes, the restaurant was very busy, but if you advertise an event (especially via Facebook) you should be prepared for the surge in customers. At times there were long queues waiting for a table, while numerous tables waited for food. As far as the food is concerned, our starters were good (although the tempura prawns looked like they were in a tin of spaghetti rather than noodles - although they tasted good), but the main course not so. The halibut was well over cooked and extremely dry, with the accompanying vegetables rock solid; it looked like the plate had been sitting under a heating lamp for some time before serving. Our dessert, both had mille feuille, were truly awful. This should be a stack of filo pastry, with fruit and cream between each layer; ours was anything but that, and the pastry was burnt to a crisp. Overall very disappointing and not up to their usual standards. I just hope this was a one off and not a sign of where the restaurant is heading.

I had not been in the Marine Hotel in Ballycastle before but found ourselves in Ballycastle for the Cliff Diving when we decided to try for a table in Marconi’s. The host was very charming and given we’d nothing booked gave us a table as long as we were finished by 6 which was fine. The service was generally good and the menu was decent - my husband ordered fish & chips and I ordered a chilli chicken. While he was perfectly happy with his meal, I had to look closely at the plate to find my main course (a chilli crispy chicken) - I’m female and wouldn’t say I have a particularly large appetite and we’d been snacking - which was just as well as I have had larger starters before compared to what was on the plate. Quality wise was reasonable although the chicken was a little over cooked but at £18.00 for the meal, it was certainly not good value. When I commented on the portion size to the waitress she laughed and walked off. One of the ingredients was also missing but I actually hadn’t noticed until the meal was finished and I re-checked the description. I did mention it to another waiter when we asked for the bill and in fairness there was a 10% reduction on the bill and he was a delightful young man to deal with. So all in all, there’s plenty to like in Marconi’s, it’s central to the prom, the staff/service for the most part was good, decor is bright, but there needs to be a discussion in the kitchen on portion size.

Portions were really small, some of the ingredients listed in the menu were missing. The ambiance was extremely stressful and not conducive to relaxed eating as at 20.30 there was a lot of clatter and banging as they had decided to clear all the vacant tables around us for the breakfast next day. This left diners with a most uncomfortable sense of being rushed out. The kitchen closed at 21.00 so I assume diners could linger over their dinner until 22.00 but diners felt unwelcome and under pressure. Really run for their convenience and not for diner enjoyment.

Horrible experience. The mussels arrived with a foul smell (excrement to be more precise!!) The waitress reassured us by suggesting we try it. I taste the juice and I'm almost sick! The taste was a concentrate of the smell! The mussels were clearly spoiled. They served us another dish but no apology, no discount. We didn't understand how the chef didn't smell this foul smell! A shame !

This restaurant caught our eye due to the special menu they were running for the Rathlin Sound Festival. The menu had some of our favourites and we really enjoyed the chilli squid followed by fresh local langoustines. Service was very patchy with long wait for drinks, confusion over what was a starter and what was a main course, then near the end a bizarre conversation when I ordered the cheese plate and was told firmly that this "was not a dessert"!

Great staff, very friendly and nothing too much trouble but that's where it ends. I struggled with the menu but opted for daube of beef. It was very dry and tasteless, it was more like a cheap cut of stewing steak. The restaurant itself is very fresh but seating a little uncomfortable. Kept sliding off the booth seat so moved to the other side of the table to a chair but it was hard and uncomfortable.

The menu had something for everyone in our party, including many choices for vegetarians. It was hard to decide what to pick! My choice was the salmon with risotto. It arrived at the table with steam rolling off. It was decadent! I highly recommend Marconi’s for drinks, food or both. The staff will be sure to make it worth your while!

Stayed at the hotel attached to this restaurant and the breakfast was good but safe to say dinner was another story. Seated at 7.15pm and drinks order taken and food order. Waited about 35 mins for soup to come down. Heard the table behind us being apologised to about their wait and how there was a mix up in sending their order to the kitchen and they would get a round of free drinks, albeit only coffees but there was 4 of them. At 840pm I asked where our mains were, to be told they were being plated up now. Asked again at 9pm to be told that they were coming down. 9.02pm our plates were set infront of us. No sort of apology other than being told they were very busy. They were not! It's not a big place, and there were a few tables empty. Maybe 12 tables seated! We didn't even wait for our main plates to be collected we just were that scundered with the wait. The attitude of the hostest also left alot to be desired. Rude and arrogant, especially when asked where our mains were. Left and wondered why my partner didn't finish his, he only got a burger and chips. To which he couldn't eat his chips as they weren't cooked, still raw in the middle. He doesn't like to complain so didn't say to me as he knew I was cross about the wait. So paid £80 for 2 starters, 2 mains and 2 drinks, and the main wasn't even cooked properly

Went down Ballycastle town for dinner. We had wanted fish and chips and had heard there was a nice chipper at the waterfront but because it was Monday evening it was closed. So Marconi’s restaurant was close by and we managed to get a table. First we waited ages to be served. We didn’t really mind that because we were glad of the table when we hadn’t made a booking. Eventually we were served. Then it took another age for the food to be served. Three out of four of us ordered the battered fish and chips and my daughter ordered the beef burger. When the food came I knew straight away that it wasn’t going to be a nice meal. The battered fish pon all three plates was overcooked to a very dark brown colour with the ends being rock hard crispy. It was also so so greasy. Obviously it is deep fried fish but it’s deep fried everywhere else we get the same dish and the batter is always light and fluffy. We didn’t complain because we were absolutely starving at this stage. The chunky chips were alright, again overcooked but not as much as the fish. It also came with mushy peas. We ate the dish, I shared a small bit with my daughter cause I couldn’t finish it because it was horrible. My sons complained about it also but they ate theirs. We paid up and left. The young members of staff were nice and polite. I left a tip because of that, not the food. When we went back to the hotel all three of us felt a bit sick after the meal. I felt the worst and went to bed hoping to go asleep. An hour and a half later I ended up vomiting the entire meal back up. The boys didn’t. They still felt a bit sick, they said it was one of the worst meals they’ve ever had. I don’t think the fish was in any way gone off, it was the disgusting batter. Surely a restaurant that seems to specialise in fish dishes could manage a nice battered fish. Seemingly not. My daughter said her burger was fine, not bad, not good, just fine. Complete waste of money. Also, I saw a senior member of staff clapping her hands to get the attention of customers to bring them to their table. I was shocked at that behaviour.

This could be great but several things let it down. The service was slow, 20 mins to even order drinks, and an hour to be served our main course. No explanation or effort to build rapport with customers. My fish portion was well cooked but very small, the cauliflower accomplishment was seriously hot...I was expecting curry flavours not to have my eyes water. Luckily my husband likes spicy food so he ate that. Our daughter's chicken was dry. We had to ask twice to get replacement water and drinks with our meal and again twice to get the bill, another 40 min wait. This didn't sit well, with us having pre-booked online which stated we only had the table for an hour and must vacate it by 8pm, so we'd prepared ourselves to be quick and vacate the table swiftly. We booked for 7pm and hadn't even had our main meal by 8pm so I'm thankful no one enforced their booking policy. The majority of the staff appeared to be young and trying hard but very inefficient. I felt sorry for them as they were clearly trying but weren't working well as a team. We're only here on holiday but I'd recommend other places to eat, unless you've got lots of time on your hands.

Disappointing food especially for the price. Service not overly friendly. We had the fish and chip which was pretty mediocre (probably would have got better from a local chippy) and the salmon with very stodgy risotto. We had to ask to get the plates cleared and staff interacted to the bear minimum. Shame Wish we had done a bit more homework and gone down onto the high street where we ate subsequent days to a much better standard with friendlier vibes.

We had been looking forward to the once monthly seafood menu but was left very disappointed. My stater was fine but my wife had crab aran initially. We couldn't taste any crab and the romesco sauce was very very spicy. The sorbet to follow was lovely but mine was garnished with a half rotten strawberry. My wife's whole lemon sole was headless. My hake should have been with a roasted vegetable and chorizo casserole but was just courgette and tomato sauce . My lemon tart was OK but the pastry was thicker than the lemon filling . My wife had yoghurt paracetamol which wasn't set and was more like a posset. At £35/pp we expected better. Sorry but although the food was tasty not good value for the money.

Great location for a hotel/restaurant but unfortunately we had to send our desert back as it wasn't good and we didn't feel welcome at all by the staff. It was a bit disappointing as we booked for a birthday celebration and we were expecting more from a restaurant with such a lovely view and location.

Perhaps a one off but the slow cooked braised beef was really leather like and not chewable. Probably a one off and will give another chance. Service couldn't be faulted in dealing with our complaint.

I've been a few times with family and always enjoyed a superlative meal, good choice of food, great service at reasonable cost. The seafood is particularly good and the view amazing.

Fish cakes described as having a chorizo and dill sauce which came looking like a bowl of soup with a fishcake plonked on top. The worst chips I have had in a long time. Frozen and possibly cooked in old oil. What's wrong with homemade...

Absolutely loved lunch here today. My wife and I took her parents for lunch, they loved their meals as we all did, absolutely delicious, the desserts were excellent too, the staff were very attentive, very professional. We brought my wife's parents to celebrate her mother's birthday, and she was delighted, thank you.

My mother and I ate here at the start of August and loved our seafood dishes (chowder and the smoked trout). My mother enjoyed her chowder, although found the samphire to be a bit overpowering towards the end. I had the smoked trout, which I...

Wait staff was subpar. They made us leave the bistro literally for one minute to come back in to be seated the previous night they made us move like four tables before we got a table that was suitable for four people. The older staff was borderline rude where the younger staff was fairly nice food was OK at best.Eggs had shells in almost ever one they were boiled in oil instead of pan fried or on the on the grill. Pastries were the frozen kind not fresh baked. The night before we came to get fish and chips took 45 minutes the fish was gain ok at best chips were a little overcooked overall very poor!!

Give this place another go after a previous bad experience but will never cross the door again. My partner and I both got the chilli pasta. Hers was overly watery and both different colours. Right down to the very drink was shocking. Got a pint...

Family of 4 were accommodated at short notice in the lobby area. Great view and super food but most of all the staff were excellent and great ambassadors for Marconi’s. Without doubt the best service we received on holiday. 100% will return again.

Fish was cooked fresh, batter was lovely and crispy, couldn't fault it! We ate in, the tables were clean and it was nice to get in out of the elements. The free to play retro arcade machine at the back of the shop was pretty cool!

Despite calling a few days ahead to book in our large party which I explained included dogs and young children, we were given an extremely rude reception - before being reluctantly led by the landlady to a table laid up for a different booking and told we had to fold down our buggies and leave within 2 hours. (There were other buggies in the bar area so this seemed particularly odd). We all felt really uncomfortable so decided to leave rather than let the atmosphere spoil our meal. Extremely disappointing as we had planned our trip to Keswick around a meal here. But delighted m to say all was not lost though and we found somewhere with a much more friendly and accommodating attitude.
