Scopers in Down

Absolutely incredible! We both got the sirloin of beef roast dinner and my word, it was one of the best roast dinners I’ve ever had (which isn’t something I’d say lightly). The beef was so tender, the mash was creamy, the veg was perfectly seasoned and the gravy was divine. The rest of the menu looked amazing as well. We will definitely be back to try some of the other things on there.

We ordered a carryout but unfortunately a member of staff gave us the wrong meal. We telephoned Skopers but they provided us with an inaccurate explanation of what had happened at collection. We found them most unhelpful and unwilling to do anything to rectify the situation. The food that we received, albeit not what we had ordered, was, in any event, a duck/pork dish, bland and lacking in flavour - a burger under-done and the bun was over-cooked. The wedges were of a rubbery texture and lacking in flavour.

Great food. Worth the wait. Everything is interesting and delicious. As close to no waste as you will get. Eclectic menu

This is our second time here with my husband’s 90 year old Mum and the service is impeccable. The food ….. I don’t know where to start. The first time we had the fish Goujons for the Mum, husband had the smoked haddock and I had the squid special. The second time I had the beef tacos - so good, delicious and amazing balance of flavour, my husband had the langoustines - all the dishes were stunning!! Cannot wait to be back

We had the seafood chowder which had a lovely flavour however, the potatoes were slightly hard and the consistency was not right for a chowder. As this cafe was highly recommended will shall give it another try.

Delicious food, locally sourced and cooked without any preservatives! All natural, all good and super delicious! Really friendly chef, Paul, who clearly enjoys crafting food. Excellent quality in every way

Went here on foot of a recommendation from a friend. Would highly recommend. Food was wonderfully seasoned and cooked. Fish batter was fresh and made all the difference in the tasty. Great selection on the menu too. We had a chat with the owner who was very warm and friendly, you can tell the food is made with love. Saving for the best for last, but the brownie is a MUST in this place. Couldn't resist buying on the way out, but the best brownie I've ever tasted. We will be back!

Fantastic food & coffee. Absolutely perfect after a long walk in the Mournes. Really friendly & helpful staff also. Had the venison burger which was out of this world.

The food is fantastic here. We had squid, beef and chicken burgers and the veggie option. All were perfect. The care and attention put into each dish shone through.

Stopped for takeaway on way back from Tollymore. Wonderful food and lovely service. Had the veg chilli, venison hash browns and triple cooked chips. Will definitely be back!

Tried this place for the first time and I am already looking forward to the next visit. My wife and I both had the dexter beef burger and we shared chips. The burger was the nicest I have ever tasted and the chips were perfect. The service and staff are so nice also.

The Chef Patron, Paul, is so passionate about the menus he prepares and the food he prepares. He chats away to customers, making them feel every part of the experience. Uses local and seasonal produce, with a knowledge of foraging for ingredients since he was very young. Sustainability is a key 'ingredient'. While seating in the takeaway is limited, we do prefer to sit in; get a bit of craic and eat our meals fresh out of the box! Check out the Supper Club which is also a gourmet experience to delight the palate.

Just Wow! A hot food bar with sit in or take away and a menu as delicious as it is different. Had the Dexter Burger and Southern Fried Cauliflower, others went with Arancini and Chips. Fresh, delicious and very local, Paul the owner chef is a human dynamo, you almost feel giddy watching him run too and fro! This was a splendid experience and I cannot recommend Scopers highly enough. I am looking forward to our next visit to the Mournes and to introducing more of our friends to this little gem of an eatery. Not open all week so pick your days with care.

Incredible little eatery that we happened upon in Dundrum! The food is of such a high standard-we were all speechless when eating and talked about long after we left! Lovely covered picnic area out the back where we could devour the food whilst hot. Our group comprised of two vegans and sometimes it’s difficult to find a menu with such great choices in Ireland. Honourable mentions - Tempura Courgette Flower with Goats Cheese, Vegan Chili, Triple Cooked Chips, Scotch Egg, Buttermilk Chicken Burger and Battered Cauliflower with Chili Jam. Cannot recommend highly enough! The staff were super friendly and chatty. We were just sorry to miss the Newcastle Food Festival the following weekend which the chef was coordinating with other vendors in the area. Scopers would entice us back to the North for a visit alone!!

Called in here after a beach walk with elderly Uncle in Newcastle on our way back to Belfast. Able to park at the door (disabled bay). Staff very patient when ordering. Had chicken burger and Uncle had a pie with skin on chips. You are able to eat on picnic tables at the front or in a covered area at the rear. Food was very tasty and great value. All in all a real fab gem of a find- we have eaten at a fish and chip shop and a squid shop and a more expensive restaurant all on that same parade of shops on the same side of the road - this was better than all of them !

Scopers is a hidden gem, amazing food on a par with top restaurants. I was out for a walk with a friend when decided to try scopers initially i thought it was an ice cream shop. It was lovely to have a healthy vegsn meal to takeaway ans eat in the comfort of my holiday apartment I will recommend to frienda
