No 14 at the Georgian House in Ards

To be fair this is the best whisky sour I had in a long time, would definitely come back

Excellent ambience, service, and food at a very reasonable price!

We had book a table for dinner last night. On reading reviews we were looking forward to a nice meal. On arrival nice welcoming atmosphere and decore in dining room. For myself and my daughter our courses were good. As for my husband's food a terrible disappointment. He ordered the cheese and crab tartlets for starter. Should have been presented with yellow tomatoes and a mustard salad leaves. Arrival of 2 small tartlets on a plate with nothing else totally dry and not as menu stated. His mains was ribeye cooked medium with a garlic butter request on the top of cooked steak. Looked nice when it arrived, but the butter was a cold block on the top straight from the fridge. Wondering why it wasn't melting into the steak,middle of the steak completely raw and ice cold. My husband ate all around the edge of the steak as it was just warm,until he couldn't eat the raw centre with the lump of unmelted butter on top. Asked for it to go back to the chef to see it was uncooked. Response from the kitchen was that the chef cooks a medium steak at 45°c. Any qualified chef would have the knowledge to know that the optimal cooking temperature for a medium steak is 60-65°c. If I am expecting to pay £30-40 for a steak ,I expect nothing short of a steak cooked to perfection. A basic skill for a decent chef. Not the case here unfortunately. A real disappointment. The dining room was quiet as we ate quite early so no excuse of being under pressure with a busy pass in the kitchen. To have both courses not to the customers satisfaction is totally unacceptable. In this day and age you want to charge the high prices so I see no room for excuses and poor presentation of a customers orders. We never asked for a discount from the bill, as that is not our style. A starter at £12 was deducted from the final bill. To be honest that didn't make any difference ,the total disappointment was already in place. A dinner that was meant to be a family celebration completely ruined by a totally underrated chef, who can't cope with the basics of correctly cooking a perfect steak. Shame on your establishment for thinking that is acceptable. Very poor. I would like to add a response to the owners reply to said earlier review. Everything I stated was true. You are totally incorrect in the steak order of medium rare. The order was medium, which means a steak cooked through with a pink juicy centre. Not raw and ice cold like what your kitchen sent out. The steak was 2/3rds eaten yes as out of politeness we don't like to complain. At the point of icecold raw meat it had to on the second time of the waitress asking be sent back to the kitchen. I must stress at no point was an apology offered for the poor standard. Your establishment is nice but not as good as you think. That is why whenever a customer gives something short of a 5 star rating you James the owner seem to become quiet aggressive. Your whole response is extremely rude and an attack on decent paying customers. Nobody likes a little negative feedback. This is healthy to own your mistake and take on board other people's opinions and improve from that. It seems you are totally incapable of doing so as looking over all the other less favourable reviews you have verbally attacked those customers as well. This is childish and unacceptable behaviour for an owner of a restaurant and bordering on very unprofessional. A simple apology would suffice and bring you more respect. Nobody gets everything right all the time. Take some advice and move on with respect for your customers. Wishing you all the success in the future, not for me,which is a shame. But as you suggest maybe try somewhere else next time where paying customers are treated with respect and not made to look like they are lying, when only the truth is being told.

Very good. We called in for an excellent breakfast. Well cooked and presented, the staff were first class.

Superb food complimented by excellent customer service. We were staying in the area and the restaurant was recommended. From the moment we arrived we were looked after so well. My steak cooked to perfection as was the food my wife selected. Unobtrusively served by polite staff. Highly recommend you book a table.

We have visited the Georgian House several times over the last few years and the food and service have always been great and did not disappoint on this occasion either. I'm quite surprised they can keep up this level of consistency and it must surely now be one of the better places in the wider area and can compete with any place in Belfast any day of the week. My chicken chasseur was cooked to perfection and the vegetarian tacos were getting rave reviews. We will be back.

A lamb shank cooked at a divine low temperature. Efficient staff. A human-sized restaurant room.

Beautiful building, very homely and cosy. The food is delicious good sized portions and very reasonably priced. staff are very welcoming and efficient. Recommend here.

This place never disappoints. Took a trip to heaven this morning with a delectable serving of Trout. The picture doesn't do it justice.

Beautiful setting, delicious food, fair-priced and the staff were kind, welcoming and efficient. Came from Wales and would definitely visit again when over here next.

Lovely walled courtyard out the back which is also dog friendly, staff are super friendly and attentive, food was also tasty and they even gave a water bowl for my dog

Luch on a sunny Sunday afternoon sitting out in the courtyard. The staff were just lovely and super helpful. The menu is so massive, with so many choices, the food was excellent and the vibe was pretty good too. I would say the food was a little on the slow side but was very good and was certainly worth that wee bit of extra time. We will definitely be back again. You can bring your dog to the courtyard and are made very welcome indeed. Would definitely recommend you visit.

very disappointed with food and service will not be back again

Was here for lunch with my daughter and 9 months grand daughter. The young man who was clearing the table next to us could not have been friendlier and talked away to my grand daughter. The service was great and food was delicious. I had scampi and my daughter had a chicken burger.

Every visit No 14 never disappoints. After trying some exquisite evening menu’s we’ve discovered breakfast time is delicious fresh local ingredients at amazing prices. Omelettes, fry’s, egg Benedict and the fabulous black pudding & duck egg. With lovely hosting and atmosphere this venue is great for singles, couples & groups. Comber is lucky to have you 💖

They made me a birthday cake it was lovely and made on time great service.

Its hard to drag my husband out of his comfort zone..but I persuaded him to come to No14 since I and friends had visited before. He is now a convert. Thoroughly enjoyed his meal, the ambience,the music and the whole experience. Staff were exceptional, I have mobility issues and a table was reserved for me, which I really appreciated. From the charming young man to the the two young women - the service and attention to detail could not be faulted. The menu was so obviously well thought out and planned ; it was a pleasure to peruse it. None of the 50 shades of burger, curry and chicken which are so prevalent nowadays - even in establishments where one would expect more variety for the sometimes extortionate prices. The taste of our dishes was the most important factor....exquisite. Definitely wont be as long again before I drag my husband down from the wilds of Lisburn..but will probably just make it a girl night with a teetotal driver. Thanks to all for a lovely experience.

As part-time local residents, it's good to have a few restaurants of reasonable quality within reach, so this one more or less fits the bill. Maybe though, it is more at ease serving breakfasts, brunches and lunches than dinner, which perhaps its opening hours confirm. One help would be for the menus on the web site to be updated, in terms of content and prices, to those of actuality or for them to be shown as examples only.

Food was the best I have eaten staff were fantastic friendly and courteous and could not have made our stay better congrats to all for your hard work and outstanding food

We went for an impromptu lunch to No 14 Georgian house , unfortunately as I was the designated driver I could not partake in wine the cuisine deserved, we began with breads 3 varieties sourdough, wheaten and batch , duck fat butter , tapenade, walnut oil and garlic oil , served warm and toasted superb , we then enjoyed Scallops, Guanciale, celeriac and fish roe perfectly cooked , Mains were a traditional roast stuffed chicken with all the trimmings (as per menu ) and my choice Brill Veronique with a side order of wonderful champ, once again the cooking was faultless, the last time I had peeled grapes were in The Ritz so 👏👏👏 . There is plenty of choice something for everyone , breads and canapés are priced £6 , starters vary from £7 upwards mains from £12 like I said something for everyone , had we not had breads we may have indulged in the excellent looking desserts, maybe next time , the Chef like all his staff work so hard , pay them a visit you won’t be disappointed 👍👨🏻‍🍳

Brilliant food and service. Excellent staff too

Nice atmosphere, good choice of food and very good staff

Fantastic food, the most innovative menu I've seen in NI. Lovely building and excellent service. Recommended.

Came here on a whim for Sunday lunch. While I didn't get a Sunday roast (my fault for not checking the menu first) I have to say the food was spectacular. We had the breads to start which were warmed and served with butter, oil and olive tapanade. Delicious wheaten bread. I had the duck which was moist and melt in the mouth to the point I didn't need the jus. Everything was seasoned to perfection (I don't like salt on my food) so this was a bonus to have that control over my plate to add any of I wanted. The staff were so friendly and knowledgeable. Going through the specials and the items on the menu if we had questions. Can't wait to go back. Only thing that bothered me was the smoke pluming out of the fireplace into the dining area.

Great food. Staff friendly and helpful. Lovely surroundings

Having read the list of suppliers and about the chef my husband and I were really looking forward to trying somewhere new for lunch. Hadn't booked but thought it should be okay on a Wednesday. Told we could not go into the restaurant part as we hadn't booked and were shown into the coffee and buns part. Brought menus for the all day breakfast. I asked for lunch menu but was told their supplies for lunch hadnt arrived yet. So how were they going to feed us if we had booked. This was lunchtime. Ordered from the A-D-B menu and waited............and waited, and waited. Waitress came back and offered more drinks and advised the chef was just bringing our order now. We waited. Still nothing. Then the waitress asked if my husband wanted sauce with his fry and it was just coming that minute. Still nothing. We got up to leave. My husband went to pay for the coke zero and water we got but the waitress had taken them off the bill. It seems completely ridiculous to have a restaurant offering a lunchtime fayre and not have the supplies there at lunchtime and to be unable to fulfill two orders (a fry and an eggs benedict) inside an hour.

No idea how the food was as I gave up waiting to have my order taken after half an hour!

We had our parents Golden wedding celebration in the upstairs function room. The food was absolutely delicious and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful in both the run up to the event and on the day itself. Highly recommended.

Breakfast not good,unattentive staff,had to ask twice for things,head waiter to buzy telling staff to put there tie on to notice anything

Fabulous Sunday lunch. Couldn't find fault...duck egg and crab tartlet with salmon roe for starter and main courses of duck and venison. So tender and a lovely combination of flavours. Great service too. Would prefer a bit of jazz or classical music in the background to match the sophistication of the food

Great breakfast such good value and pancake stack was so nice

Been to the Georgian house for dinner and brunch. Fantastic, high quality dishes using quality local produce. Great atmosphere, friendly staff and good value for the quality of food served. Can’t wait to go back!

Wonderfull dining experience, service was great , overall pleasant Sunday morning had by all 7 of us

Nothing ike the picture with roaring fire etc. We were sitting at the draughty fireplace. It was either there, or near the noisy coffee machine. Very noisy, which would be expected with it being obviously, men's breakfast day. However, the scones were nice and provided quickly. Not much cosy atmosphere as depicted by the photo. No one noticed we had to shift about to avoid the sun in our eyes as it moved across the window!! Not important!!! Makes a difference when you are sitting there. An OK experience, but not one I would necessarily repeat. Not memorable enough to repeat or recommend. Staff took the order. That's all. No interaction or smile. Good thing?? We didn't feel rushed to leave.

My second visit to this wonderful restaurant (and certainly not my last) We had a party of 10 and despite the large number ..our food was delivered in a very reasonable time. When it arrived every single one of our party were blown away by the presentation and taste of our meals. The service matched the quality of the chef..First class all round

A1 service staff a credit,great interaction with customers

Came to see a friend in Comber, she told me that I absolutely had to eat at the restaurant where she works. It's quite simply one of the best meals I've ever had... To begin with, the place is more than charming (façade, moldings, decorations) with ultra-available and smiling staff, it's a real pleasure! Then for the menu we are on "simple", 4 starters, 4 main courses, 4 desserts and it's heavy, really.. I had the duck leg which is served with its plum compote (the best I have tasted in my life), on a bed of ginger Kimchi (I presume given the taste) and it was just succulent because the everything harmonizes perfectly on the palate. All with a good Merlot which goes very well. As an accompaniment I had fries and I still wonder how the chef makes them so tender given their thickness.. 😂 For dessert, apprentice chef Peepa sets the bar very high. I'm not much of a chocolate person but the olive oil ice cream made me choose the Bavarian and it's the best dessert I've eaten. In conclusion, given the delicious meal that I was served and for the price of the dishes, I will definitely come back and I highly recommend this restaurant. Thanks to all of you ❤️

Lovely place to eat .Food is lovely all fresh products. And if you love something a little different, than the mormuel fish and chip night out .This is the place to go . You must even try once in your life .

A lovely place. Would recommend 100%.

I went in for breakfast and ordered the large Ulster fry which was quick to come out and was all cooked very well. Both the staff and the atmosphere was very welcoming.

Very welcoming staff. Service quick and efficient. Good choice of menu. We chose scallops and cod cheek dishes for starters. The former was outstanding, the cod cheeks in coating a little dry but still enjoyable. Both of us had the halibut dish as mains with sides of greens and Comber potatoes. Absolutely first rate. The bean cassoulet and asparagus were perfect accompaniments. Only minor criticism was the deep, small bowl the course was served in. It made it hard to eat the food easily. The desserts we chose were pear tartin and the chocolate fondant special. Again first rate dishes. The young chef, Peepa, in charge of the desserts should be congratulated for creating such wonderful dishes. The fondant was one of the best I have ever tasted. Overall a superb meal at a reasonable price.

Amazing food and great service. All you can ask for and more. Brilliant if you have the wee ones as well. Nothing is too much trouble. Back to the food... it's amazing.

Delicious food...the fry was top class, great ingredients and beautifully cooked. The French toast was awesome too. Excellent friendly service too. We'll def be back, particularly since they're dog friendly!!

Superb menu, excellent food and service. Highly recommended.

Beautiful scones nicely warmed and soft butter and jam and delicious coffee x

Large selection menu ,all fresh ingredients beautifully cooked to perfection, real friendly helpful staff , would definitely recommend for a nice relaxing friendly atmosphere and 1st class service and food, you can even enjoy a meal in a nice out door setting if you wish .

Visited No14 on Sunday for a special family celebration for 24 people. Fresh seasonal food was the order of the day- the halibut was cooked to perfection! The chef and his team made it a day to remember. Would highly recommend.

Called in on a whim for lunch, absolutely gorgeous!

Had breakfast here a few days ago, first visit to No.14 in a long time. The breakfast was hot, well presented and tasty. The reason I am giving 4 stars is that the tea arrived quite a while before the meal, however the quality was very good and the staff were attentive and friendly. As I was a bit pushed for time I didn't ask for hot water or a refill but will do next time as will certainly be returning.

Exquisite cuisine produced by Head Chef James Mulholland, accompanied with the outstanding quality of service provided by the waiting staff. Would recommend to anyone searching for the ideal dining experience within County Down.

It’s one star because I asked for poached egg and toast for breakfast. The eggs came in a bowl and the toast on a side plate! And they charged me £6.95! Same price as their Ulster Fry that includes egg and toast.

Food good omelette taste wheaten good flavour, staff very helpful

called in to this place to get coffee and tray bakes, was set up for restaurant type evening, we just advised we were in for coffee and told no problem we had about an hour for the table. Ordered our coffees and selection of bread and tapenade, olives, asked was there enough to share and was told to order a bigger plate which was fair enough, thinking it would be based around 3 as there was 3 of us. plate came, breads were lovely, tapenade was size of a desert spoon and around 7 olives in the dish, all was nice but portion seriously for 3 was light. went to pay the bill and 2 plates were charged for as opposed to a large plate, annoyance was if u was paying for 2 then we should have had 2 plates then, with 2 tapenade 2 dishes of olives and 2 sets of breads., might sound trivial but it's how I felt taken on

My Girlfriend and i really enjoy the Georgian house, the staff are very pleasant and welcoming the food is excellent, breakfast is enjoyable in the courtyard on a sunny morning, specials and local produce fantastic. We just had afternoon lunch with live music and great atmosphere.

Excellent food and staff, beautiful restaurant in the heart of comber! Would highly recommend

There is a certain poetry in seeing some classic dishes perfectly executed. Great quality seafood and lovely staff.

Excellent food for a catered event!

The omelette I had was very good , staff polite helpful and not expensive

Lovely garden and great ambience. Food is very delicious and nicely presented also. The only reason for 4 stars is that during our visit, the waiting staff had been rather disorganised and confused with taking orders, knowledge of their menu (lack thereof), and checking on us if we needed anything midway.

Attentive staff and varied menu, we had to share 2 dishes as couldn't decide which to have. Both were delicious as was the coffee.

Beautiful building....Good food as well

I was at Mexican Tasting Night with my husband & friends, I have never had Mexican food as good as was served that night at No. 14. This is a strong recommendation as I am a well travel Mexican!! Thank you! Can’t wait to come back!!!

Absolutely amazing place! Being such a fussy eater I thought I would give it a go and I can honestly say I couldn't of asked for anything better! The chilli squid was by far the best I've eaten in a very long time, they just got it perfect. I'll leave the desert photo to speak for itself but one wasn't enough 😋 If younhavent tried this place, give it

Great Food Great Service nice friendly staff nice atmosphere great value

Great place for breakfast lunch or dinner Locally sourced produce Cooked by an exceptional chef who clearly trained in fine dining The cremeau was out of this world Front of house attentive Price point doesnt pinch the purse too much A place i would highly recommend

Highly recommend! Had an absolutely delicious seafood and desserts , friendly staff in a beautiful restaurant

Last night, my wife and I along with our good friends visited No. 14 for a Mexican tasting night hosted by Monte. Having lived in Mexico for many years with my Señorita and Texas for many more, I can honestly say that the food we had at No.14 was world class. So much so it made my wife cry the flavors brought back memories she had long forgotten… thank you Monte, chef Jim and all the staff who served us and made our night special… can hardly wait to get back again.

A quiet gem in Comber Town Square! If you get tye chance just go! From the coffee and tea to the food and the great service!

Just Had Breakfast with my wife. Disappointed with the service we received. Had had ordered a large Fry and got a small one and my spouse recieved her porridge look warm . Asked the waiter to heated in the Micro but was told that the Porridge had been remade ,sound good but by the time it arrive I had finished my small Fry Also I had ordered Tea to be served with my fry and my spouse asked to order her coffee once she had finished her porridge but she did ask the same waiter who got my order wrong for a glass of water to be served with her Porridge,which never appeared. Once we had both finished our breakfast at different times,the waiter ask my spouse if she was ready for her decaf coffee and he was told to leave for a while . Within 5 minutes she was served with a full Decaf Americano which she never gave as an order as she wanted a single Decaf espresso with a small.pot of Boiling water. So yes the food was good but lookwarm and the waiter was not attentive and obviously did not listen properly to our order Pity Decor 👍🏼 Food 🙂 but Not hot enough Service. 👎🏼 Value for money 👍🏼 Will be back and hopefully we will receive more attentive service

Beautiful food and wonderful staff

Great looking venue and pleasant staff. Not a huge selection as a veggie (3 main options) but food was fine. Price point was pretty fair. Portion size quiet small though.

Fantastic food nice staff but awful background music much too loud But highly recommended anyway

Lovely food and welcoming staff, a very cosy brunch on a cold morning.

Super choice of food and great quality

First time here, beautiful surroundings, just had tea,scone and traybake very tasty. Will be back again

First time here, staff were welcoming and knowledgeable. Food was wonderful and beautifully presented. Will definitely be back.

I recently had a splendid dinner here with my boyfriend and his family. As the only vegetarian on our table with some intolerances I felt that the No. 14 team did a fantastic job accommodating to my needs, sharing a wide selection of options that were delicious. The pear and ewes cheese salad was just mouthwatering! We will absolutely be coming back to try out more of their delicious menus.

Excellent food and lovely premises. We held a reception there after my Mum in law passed away. Food was lovely and the staff couldn’t do enough for us.

Absolutely stunning. Quails egg with steak tartare was utterly delicious.

Just delightful 😊 and really yummy food.

Popped in for brunch, service was prompt, food good

Absolutely beautiful! Mid week menu is incredible value! Wow! Thanks so much!

Great food…great service…put it on your ‘to visit’ list!! Tastiest food in a long time and great value. We had starters of Beef tartar and Scallop, quails egg and pancetta - really really good and beautifully presented. Mains were Venison - cooked to perfection with a beautiful blackberry (or red cherry) accompaniment and sage gnocchi. Highly recommend. Other main was Pork belly which was equally as good. Starter and mains were £24 - so great value - and all presented beautifully. Fine dining and Michelin presentation - but not at the cost. A must visit.

Superb food wine service a must for fine diners in Northern Ireland

Was very disappointed with my chickpea salad. £12 and it was a starter size. The menu stated grilled vegetables which were not included. I got chickpeas, 5 peppers, maybe 5 cherry tomatoes and lettuce. Thank god the kids meal was decent sized so I could fill up on my sons fries. Very overpriced and wouldn't return.

Really lovely meal - very pleasant waiter, who was very helpful.

Jazz Sundays where amazing, friendly staff and great entertainment, the food was incredible with fine detail and a great price, a large variety of specials including fresh seafood and great cuts of meat Including steaks, burgers and lamb cutlets. Can’t wait to return

Visited No.14 again today 25 Sept. For the Jazz event, we sat outside under a canopy. Again the food was Very good and the service was excellent, it had even improved from our last visit. The music was a welcome bonus! The regular menu is a little tame but the Specials - brilliant , see the photo! Make sure to ask for the specials board. The chef (and his kitchen team) has real talent 👍😁 One of the best menus for specials we've ever seen. The food was top quality. Staff were friendly, helpful and polite. If I was to pick up on anything it perhaps lacks a little bit of finesse with the condiments. Overall though great food, lovely presentation,a visit would be well worth it! Great fish!

Always great experience. Food was lovely staff always friendly & very helpful

Wife treated me to the tasting menu and every course was superb. A showcase of fine local ingredients made for a very memorable dining experience. The value for money here too is excellent for the quality of food. Service was friendly and knowledgeable. Well worth a detour out to comber.

Excellent place to eat .Food was excellent. Plenty of choice and special dietary needs catered for.

Portions were small and side dishes were priced separately. Main course of turbot was minute. Beef was described as medium and arrived medium rare. Not good value for money or quality of food for the Michelin star rating they are hoping to achieve. Also scrap the low quality paper napkins. Staff were pleasant. Second and last try at this restaurant.

Had a wonderful evening, from the moment we walked in staff were attentive, friendly and helpful. The food was spectacular looking forward to our next visit.

My partner and I have been suffering severe food poisoning after eating the oysters on Thurs 18th Aug 2022. It is so bad we are both bedridden and unable to work.

Food was delicious and staff were very attentive. Definitely will be back

Absolutely fantastic evening at no14. From the moment we walked in the staff were attentive, the mood was amazing and the food probably one of the best iv had in a long time. Its great to see people who enjoy their job and it rubs off on those dining here to make a very pleasant experience. I will be highly recommending here to anyone who is looking a top class evening out with friends or family or even just a quick stop off after a day out. Well done to all at no14!

An amazing restaurant providing fantastic food and service! The specials menu served up a plethora of options making great use of local ingredients. The scallops starter and duck breast main were excellent and the creme brulee dessert was divine!

Absolutely dreadful experience. We we politely greeted by a member of staff that had to check which menus were being served (it was lunchtime, and we were interested in the brunch offerings). We then proceeded to the delightful little courtyard area at the rear of the restaurant, which was half full. Unfortunately the only table left in the shade hadn't been cleared, and it took around five minutes for it to be cleared and cleaned. Another five minutes or so elapsed before our drinks order was taken. We had already decided what we wanted to eat, but were told that someone else would have to take the food order. The drinks arrived after another five minutes or so. We had virtually finished the tea and coffee when another member of staff approached us and said there would be a delay of a further ten minutes before our order would be taken as the kitchen was "prioritising reservation food orders". We promptly got up and left. There were four waiting staff on duty. They were wandering around in a general state of confusion during our visit. There appeared to be only one member of staff working in the kitchen area from what we could see as we left, and he looked extremely harassed. Everything about the visit suggested style over substance. The indoor dining area was empty, so there were only about a third the amount of covers that the place is designed to hold at the time of our visit. The experience was, overall, shambolic. I doubt that we will visit again.

Great atmosphere. The setting in the Georgian House is beautiful and a superb back drop for this restuarants cuisine and style. I had the duck which was cooked to perfection. Staff were lovely and very friendly. Will definitely back, especially with the dogs as it's dog friendly.
