Number 7 in Craigavon

Called today with my husband..he ordered the beef dinner I ordered the Penne Bolognese. I asked the girl who was taking our order if I could have a few chips instead of the garlic bread. She looked over to another member of staff and she said no. Quite abruptly, the girl had tattoos on her arms, a face on her that would turn milk sour. When she came down with my Bolognese I asked her could I have some mayo and she said it was ,15p per sachet and walked off. So I shouted after her to forget about it. I think this particular girl with the short hair tied up and the tattoos needs some training in customer service. We won't be returning.

Menu is very basic 'school canteen' esque, fine but overpriced for what it is and compared to other food places in Rushmere. Had curry and rice, just chicken and onions in sauce, no veg. Very loud, hard to hear staff and for them to hear you which means orders are often messed up. Cafeteria/canteen style service, hard to manuvere around with tray because of crowded tables.

Chips were reheated sausages over cooked very disappointing no vinegar or red sauce and tea was terrible staff not good no personality hardly speak

Ordered a Chicken Ceasar Salad. To my surprise, it was warm and has a bit of a kick to it. Actually, it is quite tasty. If you like a good Ceasar and are looking for a twist it's worth a go.

Love this restaurant. Thank you Nicola for going the extra mile. Always feel welcome here with great food and cheerful staff.

Was meeting a friend of coffee and popped in to no 7. It was 2 pm and the cakes and hot food looked amazing, lots of customers but also no problem getting a table. I was impressed with the staff there was a few younger members who where totally guided by a dark hair lady, wish I knew her name, she was calm friendly and jovial.

Not helpful at all staff extremely rude. They really have not a clue about food allergies even tho they have it wrote up on a wall, 'please inform the staff of food intolerances and allergies'. My daughter ordered a wrap and informed the staff she has an egg allergy they proceeded to make the wrap on the same unclean tray that they had just made a wrap containing mayonaoise on and then cut her wrap in half with the knife that was covered in mayonaise, when my daughter informed the worker AGAIN of her allergy and asked her to remake the wrap on a clean tray and with a clean knife, the woman then tried to refuse to serve her as she was being "fussy" she eventually remade my daughters wrap properly after a manager walked past and complained about making it the entire time, reminding my daughter what an effort it was to have to use a clean tray and knife, honestly only a matter of time till someone will end up very sick eaten here, and the foods disguting

Totally disgusted!! Went into the restaurant today with my husband. Wee lifted a tray and proceeded to the counter. Wee were attended to by an ignorant member of staff. My husband asked for salted chilli chicken to be told , you will wait 15mins on that. Because of a death in are family wee were time limited and decided to take what was on offer at time. I asked the abrupt woman what was the menu she said Turkey ham roast pie not being helpful neither friendly. As though wee were troubling her. When I pointed to an item she replied Turkey I said is that ham? My knowledge of turkey is Turkey and ham. When I was asking her I would have it she spoke loudly abruptly and rolled her eyes. My husband couldn’t believe how I was being treated and told her she was a disgrace in her manners. I was embarrassed, I lent back asked her name and she replied it’s REBECCA WITH A STINKING ATTITUDE . I never ever would write a review but my god but seriously number 7 she is a disgusting member of staff. Won’t ever return here

Got a club sandwich and the bacon wasn’t cooked,

I ordered a chicken sandwich and as I am allergic 2 cheese therefore asked the assistant 2 clean the area before she made my sandwich as there were pieces of cheese on it and she said they don't clean it between making food for each customer. I said she could at least put a paper sheet on it and herself and her colleague just looked at me as if I was stupid. I found this totally unacceptable. Needless to say I couldn't take the sandwich so they weren't happy atall after making it.

Called in today against my better judgement as I had a really poor experience on my last visit but believe in second chances. I was with my mother and father and we were looking coffees and traybakes. The young girl at the coffee station is one of the rudest service sector workers I have come across. She looked at me and my father with a totally disinterested looked on her face and never spoke. I ordered my drinks and not a word, she continued to talk to a male colleague whilst ignoring me. I should have left but it’s where my parents wanted to go. When the drinks were ready she slide them across the counter again without a word. The girl in question had long red false nails, jet black her and pale skin, late teens early twenties. Thankfully the young female who took our payment was pleasant. There will not be a third chance from me unfortunately.

Ordered a lattie got a cup of hot milk instead staff not interested to busy talking to each other diffently gone down hill what a shame it was always a lovely place to go.

If I could give less stars I would. Absolutely ridiculous place. Not many staff for Saturday afternoon. All staff scorpi heads. Never ever come back. No customer service at all.

What has happened to this place? Poor quality food, no filling in sandwiches or pannini and ROTTEN CHIPS. I wasn't bill payer and payer didn't want to make a scene 😕. I will NEVER be back here until new management or owners take over. Its disgusting 🫣 🤮

My sister and had soup and soup wasn't hot. We both are cooks and if we probed it it wouldn't even reach 63 degrees which hot held in the soup kettle. I don't think they take reading of temiof food every two hours. We then had latte coffee and it was the same. Took it back and told the girl. She wasn't pleased just to return with coffee and no better. Also just looked through reviews and everyone complaining. Can the owner not look and sort staff out. I know in my place of work we wouldn't get away with that .

Very.lazy.staff always on phones are never behind counter food not as good as used to be staff near throw it at ya to be honest one sraff member is very unprofessional and no.customer service at all shocking

Great Value & variety, love the Sunday lunch

Disrespectful staff! Expensive for wat u get! I got dirty looks from the staff when I asked about my allergy! I’ll never be back in this establishment

A popular eatery, as can be seen by the almost constant queue any week day waiting to enjoy a fine selection of hot and cold dishes. This restaurant is efficiently run by friendly staff and prices are keenly competitive. A welcome spot to call in if peckish and needing a rest from shopping in Rushmere.

Staff really don't want be there. One friendly girl that I asked water from, the rest of them need to learn the meaning of hospitality and service with a smile.

Great food great place great staff

If you have no taste buds you'll love it here. Food slapped down by the server who just wants you out of her way. The cottage pie is lacking, cheap mince and tasteless. Chips are stinking, and half cooked. The Fanta was the only thing they couldn't mess up. Would rather eat out of McDonald's bins.

Went on Saturday and got cottage pie with chips. Cost just under a tenner with a drink. The staff looked disinterested and left me standing for a few minutes before serving me. I was the only one at the counter. Chips were dry and tasteless the pie was very measly and was also dry and tasteless. Are a few of the chips and left. Ended up in burger king. They away from this place

Socially inept staff member…. Bearing in mind breakfast is precooked we stood for nearly ten mins with ONE person in front of us. We politely suggested more staff but the staff member decided to take umbrage to this as if it was our fault we inconvenienced them for one slice of brown toast, scrambled egg and two slices of bacon. God forbid on top of this we also had the cheek to ask for two coffees and a tea. While the angry server shook her head in a rage, slamming our change down and forgetting the tea only to have to return to resolve. During this period I decided to check my 88 year old aunt for a pulse and shave the scone. Avoid this place like the plague. Or at least avoid the sociopath serving.

Food was ok ,but the one of the staffs who served food was not lenient , served food with angry face , seems to be serving food from her pocket, so I won't recommend this place

Poor customer service ,very bad behaviour from the staff.we are not came to eat for free.

Was queuing up to order food and there was a woman putting sausages out into a dish and licking her fingers between lifting them! - thank god I saw this before ordering. I will never return.

Went today to get something to eat with family, there were 4 if us. The food on offer looked dry and upappateising. It took ages for anyone to come over and serve us, they took ages again to take our orders and plate it, the portion sizes were small for the price they were charging. Only reason we went was there is few places in Rushmere shopping centre.

Very badly organised and was busy

Food is lovely couldn't fault this restaurant 👌 Staff are also very friendly

Paid £10.70 for a slice of roast beef, scoop of carrots and chips. Sat down yo eat it and there was a long dark hair. Im not dark so wasn't mine. Staff need to be wearing hairnets but non of them do. Actually feel quite sick now and i definitely will not be back

Went to Rushmere for Hallowen day 27 October as a family Food was awful. Daughter and I ordered Lemon Merigue Pie. Slime Pie may have been a better name as the curd was slimy and did not taste of lemon. The panini ordered by another of our party had been heated in a micro but not toasted and the bread seemed half baked and wet underneath. The Lasagna was oily. Disaster. Used to be a good spot but we won't be back.

Very friendly staff and customer service is very good , even seen I was struggling with having child and carried food down for us , chicken stack unreal 5 starts from me

Used to be quite cheap and cheerful. Now they've raised the prices way beyond the level that can be justified given the school canteen-esque food. So it's no longer cheap. The lady on the till with the big fringe is possibly the least pleasant human being I've ever had the displeasure of meeting. Some of the staff seem genuinely nice and pleasant but she seems intent of sucking any charm or life out of the place so it's no longer cheerful. Don't think we'll be back.

This place has went down hill big time. We were there early so you would expect the food to be fresh! We had mashed potatoes , roast pork peas & carrots, roast beef for my partner the mashed potatoes were hard and a grey colour the carrots were limp, the pork and beef had definitely been reheated from a few days before as the meat was hard and tasteless. The whole meal tasted like it had been made days ago and just reheated and the portion size was very small for the price.The small heavy set woman didn’t like our opinion which we give and was extremely rude and more or less told us to eat elsewhere. It is obvious that the business is struggling and trying to cut corners. Will definitely not be back.

The women serving was extremely rude. Had made a women cry. 15:40 12th October. Wasn't helpful and didn't give the full dinner. One dinner was roast beef with potatoes, peas, carrots. That's it. £10. They didn't give nothing else. The women at the tills was nice but it didn't make up for the food server who shouldnt be anywhere near customers. There was a point we're the women at the tills had to go herself and put chips on a plate for now little was given to one customer. The taller women with a tattoo sleeve should be fired.

Mediocre food, unpleasant surrounding, very expensive for what it was. Do not recommend and will not be back.

Have ate at this place quite a few times but today order fish & chips asked for tartare sauce. The sachets I was given were 3 months out of date!!!

Attended today with a friend. Staff member (one person) at the till was extremely rude and embarrassed me in front of other customers in the queue behind me. We had only got a sweet and drink and when i got to the till she told me for future reference i should use the other till as you go in as her one was for hot food only. Maybe if someone was at the other till i would have went to it or if there was a sign with some communication telling the customer this but when the other counter was empty i had no choice but to go to her. It was a very unwelcoming experience.

This morning I bought my mother in for breakfast the lady behind the counter had her back to us and didn't turn around until there was about ten people queueing behind us there was no smile no friendly customer service she just didn't want to be there. We ordered a fry each big mistake I have never received something so disgusting swimming in grease we just couldn't eat it a total waste of £16. I usually go to another place in the shopping centre but unfortunately it closed down but I can certainly say I will never be back in this place.

Cross contamination!! Used to eat here with my mum. Only found out recently that none of their food is vegetarian. Chips and fish are fried in the same oil as meat which shouldn’t even be a thing! They mustn’t care that People can have allergies to meat and may have religious reasons not to eat meat.

Absolutely terrible got the 10 piece breakfast and couldn't eat it. Sausages were so hard, potatoe bread soggy and everything stone cold freezing

Worst service iv experienced to date!! Staff stand talking and food is served on cold plates . Heard the women in front complaining and then I soon learnt the same treatment. Never again. How is this place still opened !!

Watched sand which girls cough all over the place was grim gave me the wrong order honestly walked out without touching it, watched staff move plates off tables onto other tables and not even clean them just move dirty dishes from one to the other, honestly the most disgusting place ever

Good comforting food for busy shoppers, served up by friendly staff. Word of warning: The portions served are staggeringly generous!!

Nice wee restaurant at the centre of Rushmere shopping Centre. Not bad food choices from freshly made sandwiches to a cooked meal, range of deserts as well. Clean and not bad prices for a shopping centre. Friendly staff.👍

We go there often and love the plated salad for £5.50 where you can pick whatever you want for the set price. Staff always friendly and efficient

Over priced, poor service and low quality food. Tables not cleared Staff not interested, except for the two Foreign National ladies who were superb, The staff that served me were playing a bingo game on the phone, I ordered the Roast of the day, really small portion. Annoyingly I noted that the next customer had much more food on their meal, which appeared to be the same as mine? You know when management has failed, staff stop driving the business, they take no care about their appearance, the business appearance or their jobs. I am glad it's not my business, I'd be making some changes.

Efficient staff, not particularly friendly but service was quick and no issues. Food wasn’t very good at all but it was edible. Decided to have dessert and chose the crunchie cheesecake and this was probably the best cheesecake I have had in years, so much so everyone tasted it and loved it. Would not return for hot food but would definitely have a coffee and cheesecake again.

Friendly staff, surprisingly good food, decent prices. Only things wrong are that they don't do drinks on tap (you order a coke you get a can and a glass), and the acoustics make the place sound like it is 100% full when it is less than half capacity (particularly noteworthy since this place is popular for families with small screaming kids)

Love this place. Really well priced, portions are huge and the staff are lovely.

Lovely food grat price and you never come out hungry 5 stars

we love this place for food sit in or take away food lovely

My small daughter chose to eat here as she really rates the lasagne. She had this, I had the chicken curry and we each had a drink and dessert. To be honest, the food was ok. No more, no less. Our dessert orders were wrong but to be honest we didn't really mind. Just mentioning as it really does highlight the lack of attention. However there has been a change in staff. None of the usual staff were serving and the new staff are abrupt and unhelpful. They snapped at some of the elderly customers and were rude. It's a pity as we enjoy a trip here occasionally but I would now think twice.

Good food, plenty of it. Staff friendly. Fourth meal there and looking forward to our fifth!

Had lunch here and this restaurant serves a wide range of food and it does it to a high standard. Has a counter for quick sandwich which is made up to your choice. It is extremely busy and the food is that good that people vote with their feet. Totally recommend

Would you pay £7.25 for 4 goujons, chips scrapping and black bad chips? If the answer is yes, this is the place for you! Otherwise take your money elsewhere.

We were shopping yesterday afternoon and saw this busy restaurant. It looked like they served nice food so we went in but when standing in the queue waiting to be served I saw a “clean” plate had brown sauce on it. Sorry but my heart wouldn’t lie to what they were serving after that and we left!

Was afternoon shopping with my family and decided to stop in for a bite to eat thinking it would be a reasonably priced and easy place to stop off... regretted the whole experience. Should have listened to my instincts going in, as the second we lifted our trays I realised none of them had been cleaned properly. Deciding to give the benefit of the doubt, waited in line to be served. The serving staff couldn’t have looked more miserable and neither of the two had a smile to share between them, in fact just irritated by us the whole time. The food was slapped onto the plate, and my autistic son who only likes chips wasn’t even given half a plate of them... only to get to the till and be charged more than twice what it was worth! The plates and cups that food/drinks were served in were dirty and marked, and when we got to choosing a table all of them were absolutely stinking... I had to wipe down all the chairs and felt disgusting sitting in there to eat. Both kids commented that the food was akin to microwave food. Would never recommend, and certainly won’t be back.

First time eating here. Food was good value for money would recommend

It was well busy when we arrived for a family gathering and the staff are so well mannered so this was a bonus. I had the chinese vegetable stir fry and it was soo good. Everying cooked to perfection and I am fussy how my veg is done but this was spot on. Will be back plus the prices are very good.

All ways have good food and friendly service at number 7

A really enjoyable breakfast. The food was average but the staff were exceptionally great. Clean open space. Eggs cooked to order.

The staff need to learn some manners especially the girl on the till have our debit card thrown across the counter rather than hand it to us. 😡😡😡

Great place for a beautiful lunchtime meal. Vast range of dishes from chicken curry to Sunday roast. Party I was with all had a lovely meal. Very reasonably priced too with nice friendly staff.

Ate here this evening and worst meal out ever! Sausage and chip...not much to ask, but the chips were terrible! Hard, smelt and tasted like burnt fat. I ate what was possible and my photo shows what was left, though they all tasted awful!

They do lovely food. Normally busy but always somewhere to sit. Cheese cakes nice and the chicken curry or goujons

Lovely place great choice of food

Really bad quality food! I can't understand how anyone thinks the food is good, been a few times thinking maybe we just went on bad day but no! The food is consistently bad!

Arrived first thing so it wasn't busy at all, very disorganised between staff, paid for two full breakfasts, was then told they would be brought to our table, 5 minutes later we asked about our food and they forgotten, I then reordered the two full breakfasts and delivered them to our table myself, bacon was cold, sausages just warm, I'd have given 2 stars if they at least apologised for forgetting our order, will not be back

4 of us including a child. Had the 2 course midweek special (£15). Which included steak at no supplement. All the food was delicious and served piping hot. The kids meal was delivered with the starters which is always good news. The Pavlova for desert was a work of art and tasted superb. Will defiantly be back.

Gorgeous food, not to noisy atmosphere and staff are friendly

Had taken my wife shopping for an early Mothers Day gift and on the way out again noticed the restaurant with lots of people eating (always a good sign) and decided rather than drive all the way home to cook we would instead eat out. Having not eaten there before we were surprised by the varied and extensive menu available even at the late hour of around 7pm so we decided to try out their dinner menu which had something for everyone. I had a roast beef dinner and my wife had a Lasagne dinner accompanied by soft drinks. The young ladies serving were brilliant and extremely pleasant and took no time in serving our food which was piping hot and well presented and there was lots of it and all for a very reasonable price I thought. The whole place was clean and well presented and lots of other people eating there which is a good sign as there are lots of other options close bye to eat at. We both enjoyed our meals and will definitely return there again when in the area.

Good food, but a bit pricey in more recent times. Teabags do NOT cost over £1.00 EACH, so why should shoppers pay over one pound Sterling (£1.00) for some hot water and a teabag? Come on, Number 7, get reasonable! You will get more satisfied customers as a consequence.

After passing and glancing through the window seeing what people were eating. I decided to stop here for a bite to eat. Good move. I had the daily special chilli chicken dish. Wonderful. Lots of it and good. No wonder the place is busy. It provides good size portions of good affordable food. Well worth a visit

It’s not that often I’m in Rushmere as I don’t live near it but a couple of times a year I make an effort and go as it’s a great centre. I always call into this cafe for a snack. Today I had and Tuna & spring onion sandwich and a lovely cup of tea. Very enjoyable.

Always my favourite place to dine in Rushmere shopping centre. Excellent choice of hot food also toasties and sandwiches made up on the spot.

Looking at the comments others have made about the staff, rudeness and lack of hygiene I wouldn't have gone if I had rad them in advance. I went at lunchtime and it wasn't busy (which maybe should have told me something) but I ordered food and inserted my credit card. The girl asked me to enter my PIN which was fine and then asked me to enter it again. I asked if I was being asked to pay twice and she said no. I asked again and asked why she wanted my PIN twice. Her answers became increasingly evasive but as I was conscious of a queue (three people) behind me I thought I had better enter it again and made it clear I was doing so under protest. A supervisor then appeared and said I wasn't being charged twice and if I was I could always drive all the way back to Craigavon and ask for a refund. I asked again if I had been charged twice and she said she didn't know though then gave me the postal address so that I could write. Obviously I couldn't tell until the next month's credit card bill came and I had been charged twice so I wrote to the café and asked for a refund of the price overcharged plus the price of the stamp. I got a phone call from a person who said she was the manager. She wanted to refund the amount to my credit card and when I said that I wanted to know I was getting a refund she agreed to send a cheque and said it would take three days. In the end she kept the money until after the next credit card statement had come but in the end I got my money back. I'm sure many people wouldn't have kept going that long. The stress of all that makes me almost forget what the food was like but I don't recall being unhappy with it so I suppose if anyone who can pay by cheque sees this review it's not a bad café.

Decent sandwich nicely presented and good price.

Nice food but not a lot of sitting area

Called in for a lite lunch. The choice of sandwiches was great lots of filling and fresh salad with it well worth the money will return

An overpriced canteen, best I could describe it, food is slapped on the plates no one cares about presentation of them selves or the food, they joked amongs themselves but theyr faces couldn't be more miserable when looking up to a customer, the beans on children's meals were cold and some chips mangled, my food was just a slop on a plate in presentation.

I ordered a panini and it was quite nice, however it took 20 minutes to arrive. I asked for crisps and instead they gave me salad. A friend of mine ordered coffee and it was stone cold, however they did make a fresh, hot one when they went up to the counter. It definitely has potential if they worked on it a bit, but for now I wouldn't recommend it.

Would come here in the morning tones when it’s not busy. I found it hit and miss with the staff and food.

Food is delish. Quick and friendly service. Highly recommend

Took my daughter for tea. Ordered chicken on champ with bacon, onion ring and peppered sauce..with 2 minerals for below £24.00. Food is so good. Very tasty. 2 chicken fillets and big portions.

My partner and I have been coming to Number 7 for a while now and it never fails to satisfy. Yes there are times when the queue is slow but believe me its worth it. The food is delicious and the staff are lovely and friendly. We have never had a bad meal. Thank you Number 7

Have had lunch there on seversl occasions including today I can recommend the sweet chilli chicken. It is amazing

Very good.Good selection of good and staff very help full.Always very busy but plenty of room and child friendly.

The recent renovation has brought this restaurant up quite well unfortunately the price does not match the quality of the food. My most recent experience here was very disappointing. I was standing in line and was next to be served, the lady that was serving just walked off and left me and a lot of other customers waiting a good few minutes before another lady took over. I understand that everyone is entitled to their lunch break or whatever it may be but it is common decency to let your customers know.

Went in here about 6pm in evening. Thought hot food may be over. Surprised so much to choose from. Ordered chicken, onion rings, champ and pepper sauce. My partner had lovely roast beef.

Quite possibly my worst experience in eating out ever.. went with friend as we were very hungry, queued for what seemed like eternity, while watching the girl serve the food I though i was going to be sick just watching the total lack of non hygiene she obviously had been taught, but proceeded to get turkey and ham pie with chips, the chips tasted good but the pie was something my mouth had never experienced nor do i ever want to experience again, I went home and felt ill for many hours after.. JUST YUK

This Restaurant/Coffee shop has been here for years, very popular and busy place with a good food selection at reasonable prices. Table clearing is an issue at times and just recently they have squeezed in extra tables near entry door which makes for uncomfortable seating. Well worth a visit when in Rushmere Shopping Centre.

Very busy wee cafe in Rushmere - great food!! Always very busy! Great choice and value! great service. Will definitely return.

I’ve been to Number 7 on many occasions and I have to say that it was always a good experience. The place can be really busy so I don’t mind to wait if I have to. I’m always amazed with the portion sizes and how accommodating they can be when it comes to my children who are really picky sometimes. The prices are also very reasonable. There is one lady in particular among the staff who is absolutely brilliant, lovely and really helpful. I think she’s the main reason we like this place.

Called in last Friday with my mum placed an order, & also pot of tea for two, asked for an extra teabag in the pot as I always do, to be told they would have to charge for an extra teabag/cup of tea ???, well I was shocked (said it was company policy) very expensive Tea Bags Number 7 buy, anyway I put the Tea in our mugs to discover black things floating about mug from the teapot returned to the same girl at checkout requested Fresh Pot of tea she didn't apologise & not even an extra teabag in fresh pot Customer service !!!!!! Will Not be Back

Once our food was put on a plate, the length off time we had to wait for our money to be taken at the till was ridiculous, the two girls on the where more interested in chatting than serving, also there was a sign clearly stating keep fire exit clear and they had a table and two chairs clearly blocking it, food tasteless nope won't be back

Nice food but never hot enough..

Called in for a coffee while out shopping was standing at the sandwich bar with my tray when the girl behind the counter very loudly said the man in the queue behind me was before me when I said no there was no one else here when we came in and I was actually at the till ready to pay she said no I'd have to wait he was being served before me I left my tray with all on it and walked out went to Debenhams and had lovely food served by lovely staff.there are plenty of other places in the centre nobody should have to tolerate being spoken to the way we were

While the restaurant looked clean the hot food left a lot to be desired. Fish supper was so dry and batter way to thick and hard.
