Great Sunday dinner deal, one course 15.95, two courses 19.95. Other menu also still on. Happy to do half portion for those not able to manage a full portion, no request for something refused unless they really can't accommodate it

A great family run pub/restaurant in Comber Square. Good menu with regular specials for variety. Bar area has good space and plenty of seating for different sized groups. Level access from outdoors to bar area, couple of steps up to lounge and toilets.

Landlord Ivan was the reason for my repeated visits. He is a singular man. Also the 'regulars' were welcoming and friendly. The best Guinness anywhere. Sadly, I no longer have reason to travel thousands of miles from Australia to Northern Ireland, (the person I was visiting has no wish to see me again) but if I am ever that way again, I would call in for the craic.

Brilliant service from Carol, very friendly and helpful. We ordered the Thai curry and the breaded torpedo prawns (from the specials board). Both meals tasted beautiful and the kids burger was a proper steak burger. They also made a baby bowl of mash, veg and gravy for the little one. A great family restaurant. Will definitely be back.

Dreadful Sunday lunch. Meal edible but mediocre, service good. Doubt if any of the food actually prepared in their own kitchen as tasted bland, factory produced roast beef, so evenly sliced, gravy bisto or similar, vegetables and creamed potatoes OK, roast potato undercooked, disappointed no Yorkshire pudding. Good reputation, resting on their laurels. £15.

Barely edible. Sunday lunch.. Factory prepped roast beef...thin identical tasteless slices. Clear thin swim of commercial gravy, no Yorkshire puds, big con for £15. Never again. General Menu frozen food led, chef surplufuous, management in control , cost led, quality out the window from former good standard.resting on laurels I'm afraid. Go to TT I'm told.

On Sunday night we were looking forward to our first meal in N Ireland for a few years. So disappointed with our experience at McBrides on The Square. On arrival we explained we were on tight time schedule - we were assured we could have our meal 'within the hour'. Service was pathetically slow. During this time we witnessed a diner being served with cold soup and frozen bread! She asked for the soup to be heated and explained to the waitress the bread was frozen. The waitress obviously did not believe her - she placed her hand on the bread then announced 'your right, it is frozen'. The soup and bread was removed. After a few moments the waitress returned with the 're-heated' soup and a plate containing a slice of bread placing this in front of the diner. Another waitress followed with a second plate with a slice of bread - the same slice of bread that the waitress had placed her paw over! Unbelievable!! Needless to say the diner rejected the soup and both plates of bread and requested the waitress to remove the lot. This should have been the cue for us to cancel our order and depart. Eventually our meal arrived 50 mins after we placed our order - but the meal was not what we ordered. I specicfically requested a salad rather than vegetables with my meal. A dish of overcooked veg was placed in front of me. I explained to the waitress (the same one who took our order) that I specifically requested a salad instead of veg. She grudgingly removed the dish of veg then returned with a small bowl of dried up lettuce. We ate what we could, hurriedly paid the bill and left - we were now running late. Later, at our destination my husband checked the bill and was unimpressed to discover the waitress had charged and additional £3.50 for the bowl of dried up lettuce.

There were seven of us for a meal tonight ranging age 12 and up, I was late in booking a table but got one no bother. The menu was quite varied and there was a special board too. I had the crispy Asian beef salad to start and it was amazing, hubby had chilli beef wedges and there were a couple of tomato and basil soups. All enjoyed, then main meals were of beef & ale pie for me, an open steak sandwich thing for hubby (was huge), couple of jumbo cod and chips, couple of burgers and sausages. All portions were more than enough!! Few had desserts of pavlova, chocolate cake and ice creams. A few rounds of drinks including 6 cocktails, 4 pints of Guiness, couple of wines, soft drinks, a coffee and whisky and the bill came to just over £200 which seriously good value. Glad we chose here and wouldn't hesitate to go back. Staff too were lovely, great food and great company.

I was at McBrides restaurant with a group of seniors, this is one of our favourite places. We had a good menu, I noticed quite a few people had salmon, chicken and roast beef. Everything was cooked to perfection really well presented and enjoyed by all. Delicious home made desserts followed by teas and coffee. What a pleasure just to sit down and enjoy a beautiful meal, plenty of chat no rush to leave. We'll be back again soon.

We were on a birthday bash weekend to celebrate a friends 60th staying in Comber in a nearby apartment with two other friends We had the opportunity to visit this pub a couple of times on arrival from the airport while we waited to get in to the apartment and then another night for a meal. We were really welcomed in by the friendly bar staff on the first early evening clearly busy with locals we took over a corner and had a few drinks and a crack!! We were reluctant to leave but had too to meet friends later otherwise we could have stayed the night McBrides has an off license to the side which was extremely well stocked and a upstairs Restuarant. We opted to stay in the warm friendly pub and the meal we had was good quality pub food from a smaller menu ( top tip it’s a little cheaper in the pub and a lovely atmosphere) I had a steak cooked rare with great chips and a nice side salad and my wife had a steak and fried onion baguette with a peppercorn sauce both delicious We all had a good meal and just the one ( or two drinks) Fab place and highly recommended👍🙏

Located in a beautiful square in the quaint town of Comber where you can join very friendly locals for a pint of Guinness or maybe a Pink Gin while catching a big game on the big screen. Ivan and the staff will be happy to tell you about the best sights in the area such as Scrabo Tower and for the golfers a very challenging Scrabo Golf Club. Hungry with a small or large group Iris and her great kitchen staff will serve up great Irish food in great surroundings located just above the bar. Make sure you are hungry as they give a plate fit for your Queen or your Majesty and a perfectly drawn pint. Anytime we are back in Northern Ireland Mc Brides is always on our list and a great place when hungry and yes having a Guinness attack or maybe a hot whiskey if it's a cold day. Comber is located very close to Belfast with many great sites to see such as the Titanic Center

Have not eaten here for a few years so thought we would give it a try passing through comber we were met at door by two staff who welcomed us and let us pick our table chose by the window overlooking busy comber Square it is upstairs so quite a few steps. We were given the menu and specials board without any waiting and given plenty of time to choose we were served the drinks we ordered straight away. I had the tia curry which was creamy and delicious my wife had the honey chilli chicken also delicious the chips were standard and OK. Good food good service and reasonably priced we will not leave it so long again and we will be back soon
