The staff are very helpful. Both the presentation of the food and the taste are first class. the building is country style and very homely. Definately worth a visit. There was a group of us and everyone enjoyed all their food as well as myself. I recommend everything on the menu.

My dining experience at Sleepy Hollow in Newtownabbey was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we stepped inside, the cozy, rustic ambiance set a welcoming and relaxing tone for our meal. The menu, showcasing a blend of traditional and contemporary dishes, was impressive and mouth-watering. I started with the homemade soup of the day, which was rich and flavorful, warming me up instantly. For the main course, I chose the slow-cooked beef brisket, which was tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned, served with creamy mashed potatoes and seasonal vegetables. Every bite was a delight. My partner’s pan-seared salmon was equally exquisite, fresh, and beautifully presented. The dessert, a decadent chocolate fondant, was the perfect end to our meal, with a molten center that melted in the mouth. The service was impeccable, with attentive staff ensuring we had everything we needed. Sleepy Hollow in Newtownabbey is a culinary gem that I can't wait to revisit.. .

This place is straight out of a movie. We came in on a Friday night after a long drive. Little did we know this place would be PACKED. We did not have reservations but we were just lucky enough to come in after someone cancelled. We were met with amazing service, even better food, and an unforgettable experience. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming and literally everything on the menu was delicious. You can’t go wrong with this restaurant!!

Attended last night for the Our Brewery x Sleepy Hollow Tasting Menu event and it was absolutely incredible. The food was gorgeous, service was brilliant and the staff were so lovely and knowledgeable about the food and drinks! The food was served on ceramics that had been hand-crafted by the chef which was a really nice and unique touch and the quality of everything was top notch. Can’t wait to come back!

A rare disappointing visit to the normally reliable Sleepy Hollow. Took my mother for lunch. She ordered the "Leaping Lamb" which is Fish and Chips. The fish arrived, and to my eye the batter was clearly overcooked. Being of an older generation she ate a minimal amount and didn't complain. The server lifted her plate with virtually nothing eaten without asking if there was an issue or if the meal was enjoyable. When paying the bill alone the other staff member asked if everything was ok. I told her that my mum had said the fish batter was overcooked to the point of inedible, and she said it should have been raised at the time and they could have sorted it. I would agree it should have been raised at the time, but the old expression a blind man on a galloping horse could of seen there was an issue. Parfait and Chicken Wing starts were lovely. I had a steak sandwich for my main, which was a touch fatty for what small bit of steak there was, but overall the plate was very enjoyable. We will be back but perhaps with lowered expectations than previous visits.

I was there with my wife to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Her steak was nice, but chips were to much al dente. My sirloin steak as little bit overcooked for a medium rare. The waiting times were quite long for a main course. Main portions were good size, but the braised beef was missing some gravy. the mains will get 4 stars. Service was correct but no exceptional, as we had to take their attention to order our desserts. As desserts priced reasonable, none of them was ok. Sticky toffee was cold, and dry. the cheesecake was bland and flavoursome, and the crumble was all right, but the granola stuff was chewy... the potato grattan can be also improved. the starters offered that night weren't great, so we had decided to pass a they differed from the ones showed on the menu sample on internet. If i was living around I would l give them a second chance.

Our group of fifteen people all enjoyed the dishes and the service was prompt and cheerful. However the bill was quite a lot (c.£30+) higher than it should have been. When challenged by the gentleman who was acting as our treasurer, he was told ‘that’s the way our system does it’. After some discussion the bill was reduced - not by the amount of their error - but it was felt that further argument wasn’t going to help matters. We were all really annoyed, and have agreed that we will never be back to Sleepy Hollow. We will certainly be telling all of our friends and we were annoyed that an otherwise present lunch was ruined by careless administration.

I don't like to complain to servers because chef's tend to ignore them, it's the chefs job at the pass to check food. Food was not warm, turkey was not slices but pressed and stuffed, unpleasant, mash was def not hot, vegetables were over 5 minutes late coming to table after meal was served and they looked like leftovers, roast potatoes hard and oily. Disappointed overall. I havnt been here in years, and I had heard it was lovely, I won't be back.

I had dinner here on the recommendation of some English & French foodie friends who had dined there when visiting Northern Ireland. An absolute 'hidden gem' with truly delicious food & great service. Thank you for a *flipping wonderful* meal. My 'Catch of the Day' sea bream with Comber spuds, courgettes, and a side of wild garlic-butter-dressed greens was (apologies for my 'Monty Python' fangirl reference!) worthy of Jehovah.

Visited for a Sunday lunch as a coeliac requiring gluten free adaptions to Sunday roast menu and was impressed with the quality of the food. I was able to get the soup starter (without bread) and had the roast chicken main with sweetcorn puree and chicken ballotine (without Yorkshire pudding). I didn't partake in dessert but I believe there was one flavoured Crème Brûlée option that was available.

I had heard a lot about the Sleepy Hollow over the years so I was expecting a WOW experience unfortunately that was not the case. The food was nice but nothing out of the ordinary. The vegetables were very very firm and would not be described as al dente just not properly cooked. Portion size was fine and the service from the young waitress was great. The staff were friendly and helpful and organised a cab for us at the end. All in all it was okay but won't be rushing back as there's nothing you couldn't get closer to home at 2/3's the price.

Waited over 45 minutes for food, did ask the server to check on it. Server was lovely and food arrived, then had to send back my steak as it was not cooked as ordered. At the end I was not pleased to be told when my reply to “how was your meal?” was “ food was nice but had to wait a bit” to be told “ well we’re not fast food”. The older male had to then apologise when I responded with “I think 45 minutes is a bit much”. Terrible manners on his part. I’ll make sure to pass the word that the unpleasant staff member combined with too long a wait means this place is best to be avoided.

We had a booking on Saturday night at 8:15. As we are not local, the drive to the place was a bit dark for us on a rainy day. We were warmly welcome. We were truly happy with the food quality. The only drawback was the waiting of 70 min for all the food to come and it was quite late for desserts. We might try next time

Not often I give a spot that had me waiting for maybe 45 minutes to a hour for a main course that came luke warm 5 stars but with the apology we received this place deserves it. You can tell the effort put into the food by the chefs and even though it wasn't the warmest - the flavours were 10/10. Interesting spin on the food as well, venision sausage roll as well as the black pudding mousse, great ideas. Great beer. Nice cocktails and the waiters were a bit of craic to. Got us sorted a better table when the main room was booked out due to my girlfriend disapointed. When I got the bill I couldnt believe the value. Miniature desserts arnt that miniature. The same size as other places but a smaller bowl. Apple and pear crumble absolutely delightful. Couldnt fault it. Thank you.

This is our second time going and the standards continue to be top shelf. The staff are extremely pleasant and helpful. We arrived an hour early (other appointments on the way went faster than expected) and the FOH staff was quick to find us a table with smiles and 'no problems. The rustic interior is cozy and inviting with classic rock playing lightly in the background to set a casual mood. The scallop starter with little bacon/potato balls is exquisite. The scallops cooked to perfection just fell apart and the sauce balanced the whole this very well. My partner had the Sirloin main with rib which, again was cooked exactly as ordered. The rib meat fell of the bone with a gentle pull of the fork and the steak was very tender. A lot of times steak requires some poking and cutting around tougher bits - not the case here. The whole thing was beautifully tender and well seasoned, carried by a rich sauce that held it's own among the huge flavours. Buttery mashed spuds were perfect though the lack of veg was the only notable thing. I had the catch of the day which was Sea Bream. The portion was a bit small and in my opinion, slightly over-cooked. The flavour of the fish was lifted by a wonderful sauce, baby spuds and wild broccoli. Wild broccoli is always a bit tough so that is to be expected. The spuds were done very well and the whole dish was very peasant. In general I think the portions could have been slightly bigger. The desserts come only in small, sample sizes so we ordered them all. What can I say... YUM! All of them were spot on. The delicacy of each dish from the panacotta to the torte, the pear and apple crumble, sticky toffee pudding, treacle tart, and the burnt creme was executed flawlessly. Each one had a lightness and a breadth of flavour that would have easily carried it as the star finish for the evening, but all of them together was like a symphony. Outstanding. Sleepy Hollow please, please never change. Never compromise. What you're doing is rare and wonderful. We will be back and we will bring friends!

Me and my husband went for a special menu, 2 courses for 20£. I can sadly say that since last time when we were here 2 years ago, the quality of food and service has changed to the worst. My mash was totally over salted same as pork and rib balls were salty too. My husband's venison burger was dry and over cooked. It was replaced by request and dessert offered. The dessert was very watery and simple. Also disappointed in the staff. The waitress never came back to us to ask for a drink or if everything was okay with food. I understand that the quality probably was a bit different because we didn't pay full price for food but after all, I was expecting better quality and service from the place with a good reputation like this. Thank you for free coffee and dessert.

Called in for coffee midweek with my husband around 12.30 following checking out of our Hotel for coffees and following seeing good feedback on social media. We were met by a very unfriendly member of staff who abruptly informed us that we had to order a two course lunch menu! We explained we were not aware of this and stated”sorry you must be very busy” to which she replied”no” then she reluctantly said you can go through and asked us , “ what do you want?” We ordered two coffees. There were only two other people in the restaurant. We sat drinking our coffee with the door open and sawing and drilling taking place outside as there appeared to be renovation work being carried out. We paid our bill and left through a door that says”toilets” walked into a male worker who was vaping and towards the car park where a chef was outside smoking! First impressions awful, won’t be back! It’s not enough to have nice food, Customer service is what people remember.

So disappointed … overall I had the most amazing meal, smoked haddock starter and seabream main (told it was seabass), my daughter had the pigs cheek starter which was fab and for main the sirloin steak of the day - ordered ‘medium rare’. This was a bad choice. It came out ‘medium to well done’. We explained to the waitress the steak was not ‘medium rare’, and was overcooked. The waitress took it away promptly. Within 1 minute we got a new dish, my daughter sliced through the steak and it was definitely medium - I went to the reception area and quietly explained to the manager that the steak was for the 2nd time not cooked as per our order. It was taken away immediately, and the same dish returned by the manager within a minute stating the chef said the steak was ‘medium rare’ (see image attached). We were advised by the manager to order ‘Rare’ the next time. I was shocked by this response. such a pity, I did not expect this response from such a fine dining establishment. So disappointing as the service from the waitresses, 2 young girls and a young bar Waiter were both fantastic!

ジャイアンツコーズウェイからベルファストへの帰り道、アイルランド島旅行で最後に行ったレストラン。17:45の予約で来店すると、店内は既に満席。元日ということで特別メニューでした。私は前菜にムール貝とタラのチャウダー、メインはその日の魚料理にしました。前菜の味付けは少し濃いめでしたが、メインの魚料理はフランス料理風のソースがかかった上品な味付けで、とても美味しかったです。2コースで£28。キッズメニューは3コースで£15でした。ロンドンで食べたら1.5倍しそうな内容の料理でした。他の家族は肉料理を頼みましたが、量は多く、一皿に3種類程の料理が盛られており、飽きずに楽しめたようです。 私はデザートの代わりにCafe Royalというコーヒーにブランデーと生クリームが乗ったカクテルを頼みました。2日前に飲んだIrish Coffeeに勝るとも劣らない、深い味わいでした。 家庭的なサービスもとてもよかったです。

A real hidden gem. Food is incredible and the staff are friendly. I brought my 3 week old and they let us bring our pram next to the table (which was so awkward for them serving other tables) and found somewhere more private to breastfeed. The baby needed feeding in the middle of the meal and when I came back they had put my dinner under a heater in the kitchen to keep it warm. Best spot in Northern Ireland for Sunday roast.

No heat….definitely needs heat to be on Food and plates only lukewarm. My wife had to send her meal back as her broccoli was literally like salad ( touch cold)…my food was acceptable but got cold very quickly as the plate and restaurant was cold. Desserts …we ordered 2 each , we got 2 between us and the restaurant openly admitted it’s their fault . Was always a diamond in my eye that’s slowly becoming cubic zirconia…..food is only good if attention paid to detail.

My wife and I went to the Sleepy Hollow based on the reviews and we were not disappointed. The meal was outstanding in taste and presentation. The service was excellent. The dining room was quiet and comfortable where the hard of hearing can easily carry on a conversation.

My partner and I love going to Sleepy Hollow, and do so about 6 times a year. In the past the food has been spectacular....not last night. After a 50 minutes wait the main was served and all looked well....within a few bites we were both questioning what had gone wrong, there was a blandness that we felt sad about. Genuinely we have enjoyed every flavoursome mouthful every time but not this time. The staff are attentive as usual but knowledge of a particular main's elements was actually wrong. We've now questioned a return for a while and hope the high standards return in 2024.

Very nice food presented well and very tasty. Service was a little dis jointed maybe new staff... All very polite and willing to help. Just seemed that they were a bit lost.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch with the family. The food was excellent. The children’s menu is particularly good, they make proper meals for the kids, not just standard party food. Friendly service and a nice atmosphere. Will be back.

Had not been there for a few years, and when you walk into the hall way it resembles a waiting area for a take way, with a row of seat and grubby floor. The reception area is cluttered with armchairs that you can't sit on as there is no space and a chair with a broken back which had the wood sticking out. The staff are ok, but the male waiter was very loud and some what overbearing. The food was just ok, not really hot, and I felt it was very overpriced. Also the carpark is dark and the walk way uneven. As we were leaving the lights on the ground lighting up the building are blinding and you could easily trip and fall. Wont rush back which is a shame.

Absolutely adore this establishment. Very well priced, food exceptional. The staff, especially Robert make it! Located right in the middle of Whiteabbey with views across Belfast lough. Sometimes there’s a small wait for a table, which shows how popular and good it is. Highly recommend the salt & chilli chicken 😍😍😍 - chef has added coriander to this dish and it was a superb addition. Being a regular at Sozo is like eating with family and friends constantly. Such a relaxed atmosphere & the staff cannot do enough for you. Defo my go to for mid week lunch :-)

Friendly staff but £6.35 for a small pot of tea and a dry, not very fresh, fruit scone is a bit pretentious.

Lovely Garden Centre, but I found the Coffee Shop very expensive. I paid almost £33 for 2 Toasted Sandwiches, one Traybake and 4 coffees. Very average and very poor value.
