We had a lovely time here sitting outside the cafe on a warm day. The service was excellent. We all had rhubarb tart and it was absolutely beautiful. The cafe is clean. Perfect venue for a trip out.

Went here for lunch with my partner today. I got a fry and my partner got a panini. Food was delicious, cooked perfectly, and staff were friendly. There were homemade scones, apple pie and cakes on display and cafe was decorated for halloween. Would definitely return.

Stopped here for lunch. Cafe appeared clean and well kept. Service was reasonably quick and the staff were very pleasant and helpful. Food was great; we both had the breakfast and it was nicely cooked and tasty.

We called in yesterday after a recommendation from a friend. The premises are bright and pleasant. A young lady promptly provided us with menus, and we had a pleasant conversation and a laugh with her. We ordered a small fry and quiche. The fry was ok. The pastry case of the quiche was burnt black and the fillin was overcooked, and dry. Almost inedible. We left the burnt case on the plate for staff to see. At no time did anyone ask us if everything was ok. In our original conversation with the waitress we indicated that we would probably like some apple tart as well. When we had finished our main meal we waited ten minutes with dirty plates while staff walked past us and ignored us. Eventually we approached the counter to ask for our tarts. Our table was only cleared when the waitress appeared with our desserts. We were offered an option to have our tea refreshed...it had been finished ten minutes previously. We declined, as addng hot water would have left us with watery tea to take with our dessert. We felt that we should have been offered another pot of tea. When paying for our food, again we were not asked if everything was ok. This visit started out pleasant and with considerable optimism, and was gradually dragged down into quite a depressing experience. We truly felt that we were an inconvenience. There was three staff and four occupied tables.

Called here on the way home and the food was good and the staff are very friendly and helpful Usually call here when we also want to go for a walk along the side of the river and through the woodland . Both tired and decided to delay our walk until the evening

I was here for a late lunch as I'd been recommended it. A friendly warm welcome and my unusual tastes catered for easily. I loved the matching cups and saucers with a vintage print and the small milk bottles. Food was fast and very tasty and prices were reasonable. Highly recommended and I will be back.

Called here with a friend for lunch. I had the homemade quiche with side salad and it was beautiful. My friend had the bagels with cream cheese and she enjoyed hers too. Great selection of freshly prepared and homemade food. Finished off with tea and homemade caramel squares - beautiful. Will definitely return - not only good food but lovely attentive staff and to top if off beautiful surroundings.

Been here twice this week. The new proprietors used to have Sketchers in Bendooragh but took over The Slipway on Monday this week. Familiar furniture and the same good quality of food etc as before. BUT a much better venue, bigger premises, better parking and a much better outlook onto Drumaheglis Marina and the river Bann. They are busy already and I suspect come the good weather again they will be rushed off their feet. Wish them every success must thank their previous landlord for putting up their rent! Think they have the better deal here. You get free top ups too! What’s not to like.

Having a few days at the caravan site and we went to the cafe for breakfast. That fry was the best one I have had in a long time! Every piece was perfect and not greasy at all. Absolutely perfect and the staff where really nice as well. Never thought I'd be leaving a review for a fry but highly recommend it! 😉

We were camping with family at the site. So glad to see this cafe - just been taken over by really enthusiastic and friendly coffee and food team. We had avocado and toast, pancakes and bacon, scones and coffee - all gorgeous. Also a beautiful setting and the river with a park for the kids and you don't have to be camping to use the facilities.

Great selection on the menu, much better than the usual greasy spoon selection. Excellent coffee. Very nice homemade tray bakes. All food freshly made and generous servings.

Used to be a regular customer when the restaurant was in Parkgate, couldn't fault it for food and service was exemplary. I was there yesterday and I cant believe how it has changed with regard to service. We ordered pizzas and some sides, we had to ask for plates as weren't given any, in other restaurants we are always given plates to put our pizza etc on. No one came over at any time to ask if everything was ok, or if we required another drink, I had to go to the bar to ask for more drinks. Drinks brought, empty glasses not lifted. When we finished our mains, we were asked did we want to see the dessert menu, we said yes. And waited, and waited...it never came. Again I had to go to the bar and ask where it was, clearly they forgot. I was given the menu, not told what the cheesecake flavour was, not told what the ice cream sundae was, again had to ask. They only had 1 type of cheesecake and 1 type of ice cream sundae on the menu, both of which were not what we would normally order, and as there was so little choice we didnt have dessert. The menu is not what it used to be, and the service has definately gone downhill. The food was ok. Also the restaurant wasnt that busy so no excuse for the poor service.

Omg.....the most unassuming place ever, 10/10 for brie starters, and salt n chilli prawns. As for the Bushmills chicken with champ and proper onion rings. Top class but meal of the evening was their special, pork, belly, scallops, asparagus and red onion rings....to say it wa out of this world would be an understatement. Thank you zinc for an amazing culinary experience ❤️

Called in for lunch today and there were two chef’s lunch specials available - chicken ballotine and turkey and ham for £12.50. Both were delicious and came with a huge portion of veg.
