Tartine Restaurant at The Distillers Arms in Moyle

We had a beautiful 3 course meal here last week. Service and food was excellent. We had the early bird menu which had plenty of choice. Good cocktail menu too. We couldn't fault it.

While staying in the area booked here for dinner, on the surface looks nice and most of the staff friendly (the younger staff), we left feeling that while it is good and the food tasty it was missing a sparkle. The question is would we return if in the area, would have to sadly say no.

Super dinner from their pre 6.30 menu. Fantastic value and food was great served by helpful and very friendly staff. Plenty of choice. Good beers and wines. Highly recommended

Just visited tartine restaurant. Objective review would be ideal surroundings . Prompt service with pleasant welcome. Having chosen starters and mains we were soon sampling the delights, for myself I had the salmon which came with picked vegetables and a , I presume a bought in wheaten bread . The starter was quite adequate for what it was , then the main came which was the 5 hour braised beef brisket , which was a choice in hindsight I wish I hadn’t taken. Yes it looks great but after a few mouthfuls it becomes dry and along with the mustard mash only seeks to increase the dryness. The potato is not creamy it’s dry .

Went for a Sunday evening drive with my wife and managed to get a booking at short notice. There were an array of menus to choose from however we both ate off the early bird menu. My wife had smoked salmon to start and I had mussels - which were the best I ever had - you literally could drink the sauce and I haven’t even mentioned the bread!! For mains my wife had Seabass pasta dish and I had steak - both amazing!! The steak did bleed a little (medium) however did not annoy me so much but may others! All in all a great dining experience for unbelievable value on the early bird menu which includes a glass of very drinkable house wine! We will return again soon!!

This is honestly one of my favourite spots when I visit the North Coast. It always feels special and the staff are so welcoming and attentive! The food is top notch and never disappoints. I would recommend to anyone, but word of advice book early to avoid disappointment as they are super busy this time of year.

One of the few restaurants that we return to time and time again. The staff are a total delight, food is exquisite and it never disappoints! We particularly love the early bird menu in terms of value.

As ever excellent. Service was amazing despite the place being very busy. Food was lovely as always. This is our favourite north coast restaurant and it never disappoints us. Thank you Tartine

We ate here as a party of 8. Staff were absolutely lovely, welcoming and attentive. The food was only average however. Nothing overtly wrong, apart from a very dry chicken dish, but nothing exceptional either.

An exceptional restaurant, what makes it exceptional is not only the quality of the food, the value for money but the ambience and engaging experience with the Management Team, Paul, Colin and the floor staff. Nothing is a problem for these professionals in their industry, probably the experience is made more memorable by the team work they display along with the customer interaction, craic!!

The warmest of welcomes on a cold Wednesday night set the scene for a delightful dining experience at Tartine. After various recommendations for this restaurant my wife and I decided to try it out for ourselves on a visit to Bushmills from Belfast. We soon realised what all the fuss was about - for us it ticked all the boxes! Spoilt for choice with a comprehensive and competitively priced menu to suit all tastes we opted for starters of king prawn and crab cocktail along with cheese croquettes. Both dishes tasted as good as they looked. For the main event I chose a succulent and generously sized rump of lamb with a rich and flavoursome silky smooth jus. This was complimented by a moreish cauliflower cheese with pancetta mash and root vegetables. My wife’s main course of monkfish with herb risotto, garlic king prawns and sapphire was equally impressive. Both mouthwatering meals were washed down with a cracking NZ Sauvignon blanc. And something special to share for an unforgettable sweet finish… a melt in the mouth Bakewell tart with black cherries that was simply to die for. The perfect place to be - we look forward to many more visits to Tartine. Special thanks on the night to Colin, the 2 Rebeccas and Ellie.

Visited the Restaurant on Valentines night and I can honestly say it was one of the nicest meals I have had in a very long time. I had prawns for starters and Sirloin for mains. Both were exceptional the nicest steak I have tasted in years. The sweet was a sharing platter and work of art. Staff were so friendly and efficient and the atmosphere relaxed and welcoming. There’s no doubt we’ll be back. Thanks folks for a lovely evening.

This restaurant never disappoints. Service was first class. Food amazing. Definitely recommend this place to eat. Superb as always

Thoroughly Recommend. Staying in Bushmills for the weekend and booked a table for 8 in the restaurant. We had never been before and I had never heard of Tartine. Went for the early dining menu which was delicious for all of our party as well as being excellent value at around £25 for 2 courses including wine or beer. Add to this some super friendly staff and you have a top notch restaurant which is well worth a visit. Will be back very soon! Thank you Tartine

Eventually got a table here for Sunday lunch a couple of weeks ago. Disappointed with our meal…. The menu reads very well but we discovered it’s a 2 course or 3 course menu, all we wanted was one course. We ordered starters, as neither of us are very keen on desserts. By the time the main course arrived we didn’t have an appetite. I had the “Tranche of Salmon on Baked Seafood Thermidor” in other words a Salmon Fillet on a gloppy sauce with next to no seafood in it! Not what I was expecting. My friend had the lamb and again it was disappointing and not what was expected. We sat in a room which was an appendage of the main dining area mainly by ourselves!, there was a nice fire and the staff were friendly. Finally other customers joined us but by then we were nearly finished. In total it was a disappointing experience.

Probably the best restaurant on the North Coast. Great quality food and the most pleasant, attentive and polite waiting staff (congratulations to the delightfully well-mannered waitresses, who clearly take a pride in offering hospitality). Amongst a wide range of dining options, Tartine has quickly become our 'go to' of choice. A gracious and accommodating manager keeps a watchful eye that the highest standards are being maintained. We enjoyed another fabulous Sunday lunch with good friends, seated beside a warming log fire. Thank you, Tartine, for helping to create another memorable occasion. And, of course, compliments to the chef(s)! We will be back.

If there is somewhere better locally for treating yourself to a special and memorable meal I have yet to find it. It's a pity I'm only allowed to award 5 stars because it is worth more than that. Staff are professional and welcoming and the atmosphere in the dining room is relaxed. The early bird menu is a winner for early diners but you can also order off the main menu for a more extensive choice. Without a doubt this is a top notch restaurant as evidenced by the fact that it is quite difficult to get a booking unless you book several weeks ahead.

We visit Tartine each year on our annual pilgrimage to Bushmills and it is always vey good. This time though it exceeded our expectations. Food was excellent, staff fabulous and good value for money. We had Sunday lunch and both blown away with the quality of food and each had glasses of house wines which were generous portions The decor, cleanliness and ambience all excellent.

I have always loved this restaurant and visited many times, however, our last visit was not the usual experience. We were seated at the front of the restaurant which hasn’t got the same atmosphere as the main part of the building. Not a big issue as we were there for the food. I would have preferred not to have had the mussel shells from the previous diner under my feet though. I can’t remember what our starters were (says a lot) but we ordered steak and pork as mains. I didn’t try the steak so wouldn’t be fair to comment but there wasn’t much feed back other than ‘I’ve had better and you couldn’t eat the mushrooms’. The pork was well cooked but the rest of the plate not so much. The black pudding was completely dried out and the cabbage and bacon was very oily, both inedible unfortunately. For the first time we had no dessert. When asked if we enjoyed our meal we said it was just ok, no response from the staff we paid our bill and left. I appreciate views are subjective and maybe because I love Tartine so much it was a sore disappointment.

Amazing food, amazing staff, just amazing!! I could not fault this restaurant and I haven’t been able to say that about a restaurant in a very long time.

Bushmills has some very good eating spots but one of our favourites is Tartine. Lovely menus with lots of choice for all tastes. On our last visit we had a delicious roasted plaice with garlic prawns ...this was especially good as are all the fish dishes.The staff are knowledgeable and the wine list is far reaching. We always take visiting friends here and look forward to dining here again. We've heard the Sunday carvery is good. Can highly recommend.

We usually visit friends on the North coast every July and this year we returned to Tartine. The restaurant is very relaxing with candles glowing and modern paintings all around. Food is good with plenty of seafood options and specials ...we had Oysters Rockerfeller which were delicious and we enjoyed a perfectly cooked duck for main. Rhubarb and apple crumble made a lovely finish. We all had a very enjoyable evening which was unhurried and made special by the lovely staff. See you again soon.

Teníamos dos fabulosas comidas en Tartine, nos alojamos en Bushmills por 3 noches y disfrutamos de nuestra comida mucho cuando eso volvimos para nuestra última noche. El servicio fue excelente y la comida estaba muy bien presentada, estaría más que encantado de volver.

How can a small town like Bushmills have three such good restaurants: The French Rooms, the Bushmills Hotel and the Distillers Arms? I guess tourists. We went to all three on three consecutive nights. The Bushmills was almost twice the cost of the other two (£224 versus £120 and £130) but was the best. Each evening, these bills were for four people, three courses, we are reasonable drinkers. If you want the treat go to the Bushmills, but you will have really good food, good choices, good ambiance and excellent service at all three.

The restaurant t offers an "early dinner special" from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. (2 selections with wine for 16 pounds sterling). We arrived at 6:15 and were told that they were short staffed and could not serve us until 7:15. We agreed to wait until that time. We enquired if we would receive the early dinner special and were told that the "special" ended at 6:30 and would not be served to us at 7:15. No accommodation for us in spite of us being in the restaurant before the 6:30 cut off time. This is a bad attitude for a business in the hospitality industry. We happily found the Bayview Hotel just outside of Bushmills and enjoyed the most delicious meal at a table with a water view. Service and food were exceptional. We suggest that you enjoy your meal at the Bayview and forego the arrogance at Tartine. No meal is worth that!

Easy booking.Good Food, well worth the money.Very clean Helpful staff. Service was quick.Even though they where very busy. Will be back again.

We liked everything about this charming restaurant.Non-pretentious,friendly and food that was delicous and good value.Nice fish options and tender fillet steak. it seemed busy so we recommend to phone ahead. Best sticky toffee pudding weve tasted.

What a surprise find Tartines was when we had wandered up the street looking for somewhere to eat. More delicious soda bread on offer and a good wine list. The fish dishes were beautifully cooked and we would definitely return to eat here.

The fire was on the staff are friendly and the steaks are excellent all in all fantastic value for money .Give it a try

Supposedly #1 in Bushmills? So says trip advisor, but when we mentioned we were eating here the owner of our B and B said nothing. That was our first clue. Its supposed to be nice but there are no tablecloths and the wooden tables are ordinary. It doesn't feel like a pricey restaurant. It feels to me more like a family restaurant. I don't think they've done enough with the décor. The food is decent but I thought it was pricey for what you got. We wished we had tried the Bushmills Inn which a local said was better.

This was recommended to us and we were not disappointed. Very friendly staff and a quirky, warm atmosphere. The menu was good and the food was on the table very quickly. We rocked up latish - after 8.30 - and we're really made to feel welcome. The food was not cheap nor were the drinks but overall we had a fantastic time and would go again.

Friendly, informal atmosphere. Good menu selection and food was good quality, however perhaps try too hard on some dishes. I had lovely cod and scallops, but with masses of other things going on which detracted from what otherwise would have been great.

Called in here, attracted by the sign outside advertising a special early evening menu. We didn't have a reservation, but thought we'd inquire about a table anyway. The place seemed fairly busy, though not packed. My wife spoke to a member of staff at the bar, who was friendly and said he would check whether there was anything available. He hardly got a chance to move when a man beside him (who may have been the manager) said something about an hour. When my wife asked him to clarify what he had said, he replied abruptly without making any eye contact, that it would be at least an hour before there was a table.I can accept that we had no reservation, that we could have expected a wait, that he might not even be able to offer us a table at all; but manners cost nothing! What a difference it would have made if he had just taken a moment to speak properly to my wife. We went elsewhere and were served by a young woman who could have taught him a thing or two about customer service - indeed he could have learned something from his colleague at the bar in his own restaurant - it'll probably be a while before we return. Maybe he was just having a bad day...

We visited this restaurant for our 30th wedding anniversary with our son and were initially pleasantly surprised with the ambience. We were shown to a table that was beside a wall where there was evidence of food splashed on it and was rather off putting. Although the menu was varied we were disappointed that bread was not offered and the list of negatives at the end of the menu left an unpleasant impression. The demand that we were only allowed 2 hours seemed reasonable but we discovered that the slow service meant that we were almost up to the limit. We enjoyed the food and I may be nitpicking but must the waiters and waitresses always use the word WEE-very annoying. A table cloth would have added a touch of class.

My husband , sister and I went for dinner based on the recommendation of a friend who had been there the night before. The early bird before 6:30pm offering of two courses plus a glass of wine for £16 certainly is very good value. The food was good, but the service was poor. The restaurant was busy and there was a lot of staff running around. I like a restaurant where you are not rushed, but it seemed a little bit disorganized in the fact we did not have a designated server, hence we tended to be "ignored" and had to hail a server for water refills and eventually track someone down in order to pay the bill and leave. If the level of service is not an issue, the food definitely is with a try

En vacances dans le coin, visite de la distillerie, nous avons dormais au BB, un des innombrables du coin, et son propriétaire nous recommande ce Resto.Ne cherchez pas un autre dans le village, je pense que c'est le meilleur.Cuisine originale, innovante, soignée avec un effort dans la deco des plats et en plus c'est bon !Accueil agréable, lieu agréable malgré d' une devanture plutôt simple.Voici des photos des plats et de l'endroit.

I visited Tartine with a girlfriend and on arrival we were shown to barstools to have a drink and look at the menu...there were two sofas in the welcome area which were being used by diners waiting on being seated...barstools were not ideal for girls in little dresses and high shoes i thought. The restaurant was very busy with families and we got seated beside a table which had kids that ran up and down past our table for half an hour...not impressed ! I know that's not the restaurants fault but it did lessen the ambience somewhat. The decor is lovely and the staff all very good as they were kept constantly busy. The food was delicious, a different menu, which is what the North Coast really needs. Someone else has mentioned the sticky toffee pudding and I have to agree, it was best ever and just a nice amount. I wanted to have a drink before we left but I had to ask a staff member if there was somewhere to finish our drinks, which appeared to throw them, as lots of confused looks before they showed us back to the two sofas in the welcome area. It was obvious that they intend you to eat and leave. They are almost there but it needs a few tweeks... Principally a larger area to sit in before and after your meal.

They have an " order before 6.30" policy and you get two courses and a glass of house wine for £16. Excellent value and delicious food. Service good, atmosphere fine but the food really is good. In fact we went here two nights in a row. Bush miles is a really pretty little town and well worth a short potter about.

We were visiting the north coast with friends and happened to visit Tartine. We were not disappointed. Efficient service which was ultra friendly,an interesting wine list,lovely contemporary decor and perfect food. Its not michelin star but we got the feeling it doesnt want to be. We tried a lovely roasted Seabream with fennel and lemon and we all agreed that the lemon sole served on the bone took us back to the 70s...a lovely touch. Desserts were of the north antrim coast with a lovely Marmalade pudding on offer as well as local ice creams. All in all a lovely experience and a good value for money. We spoke to American tourists who said they had been three nights in a row......this spoke volumes to us. We would visit again.

This restaurant was recommended to us by the staff where we were staying locally. The decor was lovely. Staff very friendly. Menu.... Well what can I say. I get the distinct impression "Tartine" is trying to be something it truly is not!! The menu read like something from a Jamie Oliver's restaurant but unfortunately the food it's self didn't quite live up to it! I had baked Sole with some sort of crab dressing. I was disappointed the fish was not filleted. The crab dressing was disgusting!!! Thank god I didn't pour it over my fish or I would never have eaten it. The veg looked nice but was more than aldente... Raw was more like it. My mash potatoes was dry & looked like it had been dropped on the plate from a great hight. My sole was decorated with what I can only describe as fried grass.... Very strange. We were visiting the area for a 2 day break. We ate here on our 1st night but NOT the 2nd. Stop trying to be so fancy. People just want good tasty food. We found the Menu very off putting. Won't be back if back in the area.

If, like us, you love great food, great service and a fine ambiance and don't mind paying a fair price, you'll enjoy dinner here.Knowledgeable bar staff (who know about wines) and waiting staff who are attentive without repeatedly asking 'if everything's OK with your meals', the 'people' side of this eatery is on the money. And then you get to the food. Delicious. Simply delicious. We're not really sure what else one could ask.In two words, go there!

The food here was ok. I wasn't wowed by it like I wanted to be. I guess my expectations were just too high other wise I would have probably been a little happier. The prices are kind of on the high end and they are hard to get a table sometimes. So I expected perfection. The staff was very nice and took care of our needs quickly. I do not understand why but . . for some reason. They reserve tables for 2 hours. So even if the people don't show up or leave in less then 2 hours the table just sits empty. Even if they have people waiting for a table. I could not understand why when I reserved a table at 8 I sat for 10-15 minutes waiting for a table even though there were perfectly fine tables sitting empty. I thought maybe we could get sat earlier and eat sooner. Because we were eating much later than normal do to the 6pm being booked up. The food was ok. Mine was pretty bland. And I had the port with this sauce on the plate that tasted somewhat like the bland baby food you feed your baby out of the jar. My husband liked his food pretty well but wasn't overly impressed. The decor was nice and I find no fault with anything else.

Had a lovely 3 course meal here last week, the food was excellent and plenty of choice on the menu. The atmosphere was very good and the staff were very attentive, polite and helpful. I will definetley be back here for a meal the next time I am up this way.

We ate here on our anniversary night in Portrush and were thoroughly impressed. There is a sitting area when you arrive where you take a seat, review the menu and have a cocktail. When our first course was ready we were shown to a sweetheart table in a very beautiful dining room. The food and atmosphere were SUPERB and the value was unmatched! We were taken with this restaurant and would highly recommend it to anyone staying in or near Portrush!

The best sticky toffee pudding we have ever had. Food was good. We met some very nice and fun fellow travelors from England at nearby table.

The food and service was just amazing. I had the £16 meal deal where you can choose two options starter, main or pudding. I had main and pudding which where just delicious. Staff where friendly.

Four of us visited Tartine last night, choosing it after reading reviews and we were not disappointed. All of us had different starters, and all were delicious. Again, for main courses we all chose differently : cod, lamb shank, mushroom risotto and pork. I had the pork, which whilst good was a little over-cooked ( and I don't like my pork pink) and a bit too salty for my taste. The mash was yummy and smooth and contrary to other reviews not too much, even for non "locals" . The other plates were cleared and my fellow diners all gave their food "thumbs up". The 2 desserts ordered, Bushmills Cranachan and lemon posset went down a treat and the deliciously fresh Sauvignon Blanc at only £20 just completed the meal. The staff were friendly and helpful, if a little raw around the edges. Service was just ok, my brother-in-law having to wait a little too long for his main after the others had been served. There was no continuity with the waiting staff and this bugged me a little, in that one waiter brought 3 main courses, he then returned with a tray of desserts for another table and minutes later a different waiter brought the final main to our table. We were not served by the same person twice. Plates could have been warmer. The decor and ambience of this unassuming restaurant add to the overall enjoyment. Would recommend

Warm & welcoming spot & if we ever had a summer seems to have some outside space too.Good selection on the menu with interesting twists on e.g. crab brûlée-neds more crab but nice.Good wine selection & scrummy desserts.

My husband and I ate here for my birthday! I had heard good reports about the Tartine which had made us eager to try it. Well I was not disappointed in the least! We both had 3 courses and all were divine! The waitress recommended a bottle of wine which went down a treat! It's a nice cosy relaxing atmosphere with a nice ambience. Highly recommend for couples as you can chill out and enjoy very tasty food.

We really enjoyed our meal at Tartine. The service was very friendly and efficient without being pushy. The salmon and beetroot starter was very tasty. We both had cod as a main course, and it was beautifully cooked. And the bill was very reasonable, certainly to those of us used to city prices, so we both went away very happy ! Definitely a place we would go back to.

Re-vsited Tartine for a birthday treat. We opted for the dinner madness menu as it is good value - 2 courses and a glass of wine but you must order before 6.30pm. The menu had changed and I'm not so sure that it was for the better. The rosemary chicken had been removed but not replaced with another chicken dish unless you count thai green curry which I could'nt have as it's too spicy. So I opted for the fish pie. Disappointing! Scalding hot, so much so that it ruined the dish. My friend's meal of steak pie and veg however was I am told very enjoyable. Later that night I was quite ill with tummy upset - was it the fish? I have to say I think it was. I like the ambience of Tartine and the staff are great but now I'm not so sure about going back. If I do, I will keep you posted on the outcome.

Had a really lovely evening meal at Tartine when we were staying at Bushmills. It's easy to miss it from the main street but worth looking for. The staff were excellent and the food was amongst the best we had on our visit to Northern Ireland. The portions were generous (possibly overly so) but the quality was excellent. We'll definitely head back to The Distillers Arms when we're back in the area.

Un restaurant avec une devanture modeste mais très agréable une fois le pas de porte franchi. L'intérieur est subtilement décoré, le personnel disponible et souriant, les assiettes sont soigneusement décorés, on note que le chef exerce avec talent et passion.Un endroit à recommander !!!

We visited Tartine on our last night in Northern Ireland and it was incredibly elegant and delicious. The wine selection was excellent and the choice of meals was interesting and well thought out. They were also very generous servings. There was a touch too much mash with the lamb shanks (but I'm sure they're catering to the locals there!) we could not fault a single meal. The surroundings were cosy and tasteful. We would definitely recommend this restaurant to visitors and locals alike.

Nous y sommes allez 2 soirs de suite, lors de notre visite dans la région, ce restaurant est charmant, la décoration parfaite, l’accueil chaleureux, la carte et les prix sont correctes.Manque juste un peu assaisonnement.Pratique aussi pour manger le menu moins cher avant 19h.Et fini par un petit digestif au coin du feu...

Went for the early bird menu and what value it was. Two courses and a glass of wine for two for 34£ . Excellent staff . Great buzz about the place and lovely decor. Would recommend highly. The food was delicious. I can see why it was busy. Best place to eat in the area.

Good food and service. A little more expensive than some restuarants but well worth it. Everyone enjoyed the food and said they would return. Most of our party had steak cooked to perfection.

We visited this restaurant last summer and were very disappointed - firstly by a 40 min. wait between 2 of the courses and also by the very ordinary quality of the food. However one can be unlucky and so considering the "excellent reviews", we decided to give it another whirl. Big mistake! One starter was " alrightish", the other can only be described as disgusting and inedible. Did complain and in fairness was offered an alternative- soup, a fairly safe option I thought (hard to mess up soup). Wrong it was also pretty awful. Mains were not bad though. Uneaten starters were not charged for, which was good. We eat out a lot both here and abroad and know that this meal was overpriced for what it was. Definitely no more money wasted here!

This was a great find for us and we had a lovely dinner here. The staff were just amazing, so friendly and attentive. Being vegetarian or any other food allergies etc. weren't an issue for them. Food portions were generous and restaurant warm, and the atmosphere was perfect. The food itself was simply delicious!

Localizado no centro de Bushmills, Tartine tem uma área mais Pub logo na entrada, com lareira que ajuda a reaquecer o corpo após caminhar no frio e, eventualmente, na chuva. Recomendo beber algo enquanto isso! Depois pode mover para o restaurante, que fica após o balcão, o qual é bem decorado, aconchegante e com uma comida excelente!! Uma excelente opção para casais! No meu caso estava sozinho, mas pude relaxar e aproveitar a comida e o ambiente com tranquilidade.

For the first time in many years I had chicken for lunch, (the lunch was pre booked as we were on a tight schedule). It was cooked to perfection, had the correct consistency, colour and taste - not restructured, snow white,tasteless. The portion size was perfect for lunch. One member of the group was cieliac, no problem, she did not have to wait longer for a special meal. For dessert we had warm lemon cake with custard. Just the right amount of lemon flavour, and well presented. The service was attentive, friendly and polite. The pub/ restaurant is worth the visit, genuine atmosphere, perfect place for those who prefer a quiter environment in which to dine.

We had a delicious meal at Tartine's. portions were quite large. We especially enjoyed sitting by the fire with a cocktail before going to our table.

Had a lovely lunch here over the bank holiday weekend. It was a birthday celebration for about 40 guests. We all preordered for our meal and everything more or less ran very smoothly. The food was very good, with very generous portions and the service was excellent.

Five of us we went for Sunday lunch. I thought the menu was very nice and good value and it was lovely not to have a carvery. Two of us had the sirloin steak Sunday lunch but felt it would have been far nicer to have roast beef, neither of us felt that steak goes with gravy and veg! The vegetables were lovely and everything was fresh and of nice quality. I felt that it needs to decide what to serve on a Sunday - either a classic Sunday lunch or something more modern, I'm not sure a mix of traditional and modern worked.

The atmosphere in Tartine was really buzzing during our Saturday night visit and it was a great place for a night out with friends. The food itself was excellent, with a menu to suit everyone, but do be prepared for quite generous portions - although none of us were complaining!!!!!

When we entered we were shown to a lounge area to relax and peruse the menu. Once we placed our order we were then brought to a dining table to eat. Very relaxing. The food was fantastic.

This unassuming restaurant subtly hidden at the top of Bushmills town is a venue that must be visited. Old style comfort, great menu and affordable prices make this an experience not to be missed. The staff are welcoming and knowledgeable and the food excellent. Try the whole baked Camembert and then the whole baked Sea Bream and you will have dined in style and still have money in the bank. This restaurant is a must on any diners bucket list. I will be dipping into it again.

I met up with some friends in Tartine at The Distillers Arms recently. This was my first visit since it was renamed Tartine and I was ,very impressed. The welcome was warm and the staff very friendly. We had a lovely table round the back, looking out on the car park. The decor is cosy yet classy! As for the food . . . I had steak which was delicious . . . One of the best steaks I've had recently! Although I didn't have a starter or dessert, my husband had and I had a nibble of his! An excellent restaurant with great food and a lovely warm friendly atmosphere! Thanks to all at Tartine! We'll be back soon!

Pleasant surroundings and excellent service. The food was however mixed. My seafood thermadore was ok but the vegetarian lasagne my wife ordered was a bowl of grease with frozen garlic bread, something you would expect from frankie n bennys, not a supposed high end restaurant!! Nothing special!!

Called in here at short notice for Sunday lunch and found very helpful and friendly staff. This is about the third time we've visited and the food has always been good. This time I enjoyed a mushroom soup enhanced with some cream and a few chopped nuts, a very tasty seafood thermidor and, always one for a lighter dessert, some ice cream. The family sampled duck spring rolls, sirloin steaks, breast of chicken, chocolate brownies and sticky toffee pudding. The mashed potato and root vegetables which accompanied the main courses were very well presented and full of flavour. Only grumbles? The loud gentleman at another table who was convinced that the whole restaurant would benefit from his conversation (which the restaurant can't really do much about!) and the fact that this is the second visit where I have ordered 'a selection of ice cream with a homemade cookie' from the menu to find that the homemade cookie was replaced by a bought-in wafer. It's just a wee thing, but I do like to get what is promised on the menu!Overall though - a good meal and we will go back again.

We never had a bad meal here ever. Always great food, And great service. Very friendly staff.We usually get the ealy bird menú, great valué, extra £2 quid you can have a tasty steak. Really enjoyable.

The food and service are always brilliant here! And the cozy atmosphere means you don't feel like leaving in a hurry.The menus whilst not huge, have enough of a selection to suit every taste. The early bird menu served from 5:00 pm- 6:30 pm is especially good value, offering two courses and a glass of red or white wine or soft drink for £16. The steaks and desserts are especially tasty.There's also a well stocked bar with lots of malt whiskies and wheat beer on tap.

Very good and cheap meny and a cozy area before and after dinner to have a drink round the fire. Nice service as well

Had a lovely meal and went for the early bird. Good choices and went for gammon and Belgium chocolate torte. Flavours were lovely and dessert was fab. Service good and surroundings stylish. Can pre book a table in advance which is a plus for the North Coast. Good for a change from the restaurants in Portrush.

We really enjoyed our meal here. The early bird 2-course option with wine was a good deal and delicious!

A very pleasant place to spend Sunday lunch. Nicely refurbished interior which combined traditional space with a modern feel. Some very nice contemporary artworks displayed.Three courses for less that £20, great value.

Menu choice and quality of food excellent.Staff very friendly and great service.Highly recommended

Fantastic meal , the staff were so attentive , the ambience superb . A visit to Bushmills is not complete unless you have a meal here .

Once again i have to sing(print) the praises of this wonderful establishment and it's staff.We went for a birthday celebration and had the most wonderful evening. How do they do it ???What ever it is they have it in lorry loads.I only wish i could dine there every week as the varied menu means you get a wide choice. We cannot wait to return. Mind you its only 20 mins away.

The decor is beautiful and the staff are very friendly and helpful... always a good start! We ordered from the early menu, two courses and a glass of wine for £16. There was a good selection and generous portion sizes. The wine was also good quality. We were so impressed we decided to return the next evening but they were fully booked so my advice is to book ahead. You will not be disappointed.

I am a regular to tartine and thought it time to write a quick review. Simply it is a gem, wonderful food, service and atmosphere always guaranteed.Would highly recommend, you will not be disappointed.

Staff very pleasant.We complained about starters, my melted goats cheese salad was solid! They were very gracious and changed starters with no difficulties. Main, I had steak... Just alright.Food a bit disappointing overall but service was good.Sorry!

Menu was beautiful. Huge choice. You had plenty of room from other diners and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Highly recommend! Price was reasonable too,

I went to Tartine with my husband on Saturday night. As always it was a real treat.The delicious food and excellent quality wine and spirits were wonderful. As were the friendly and knowledgable staff.

Great restaurent, very cosy, lovely decor especially the art and pleasant staff. We enjoyed our meal - the early bird option - which we thought was good value for money. I especially liked the vegetarian option I choose for my main course, possibly the best vegetarian dish I ever had in a restaurent (although the amount of parsnip may be a bit too sweet for some peoples taste). We'll certainly be back.

this place was recommended by our B&B hosts, and it was so good we went back the 2nd night! the atmosphere is great as well - relaxed but very cozy and a little artsy.

Excellent night at The Distillers Arms to celebrate The Bard.........as a regular customer I am always impressed by the high level of service and personal attention given by a great team.The food is exceptional quality and represents value for money.....when your in the area be sure to call you certainly will also become a regular......enjoy!!

Stormy Sunday night in January, welcomed by the warmth of the open fire, subtle tones of good music choices and personal greeting from waitress; we knew we were onto a winner! Baked goat's cheese, salmon creme brûlée accompanied by the breads was a great start to our meal. We followed this with The pork main and oven baked cod. Both were fabulously tasty and the unnecessary sides of Parmesan potatoes and route veg had us bursting at the seams! We just didn't have room for desserts after this feast and will have to do a revisit to remedy this! The wine list was extensive and well priced with The Jumper SB and lovely cote do rhone we were very happy!

Went there as a couple staying in Bushmills Inn for a couple of nights. The food was 10 times better!! The place was warm and welcoming, a little like stepping into a friend's home! The food was well cooked, tasted lovely and very reasonably priced.i have recommended it to all my friends and would definitely return.

We were recommended the Tartine by friends and will be telling others about the place. From entering the restaurant with the lovely open fire and Christmas tree we felt totally at home. We were welcomed by both of the very friendly waiters and offered delicious complimentary mulled wine. We had the earlybird special 2 courses and a large glass of wine for £16 unbelievable value! I had the turkey roulade which surprisingly was a full Christmas dinner, probably would have been enough to feed us both, but it was delicious. My husband had the beef bourg and he finished every scrap. We loved the (3) veg which were cooked to perfection, hate the al-dente veg so many serve these days. Just about managed the gorgeous sticky toffee pudding!Just sorry that we didn't eat there on our second evening in Bushmills, though I have to say we enjoyed what we had at the hotel, it didn't compare with the Tantine both in quality and price.Looking forward to returning in the New Year.

We decided to try here on a recent visit to Bushmills for a small break, and Tartine didnt disappoint. Staff are friendly and very knowledgeable about the wine list and food. For starters i had the crab brulee which was out of this world with cucumber as a side (not sure what is was dressed with but it was yummy) and the hubby had quail, which was also magnificent! For mains we choose pigeon for me and salmon for the hubby, with a side of their brown bread as we had read all about it. Yet again, they didnt disappoint. If i lived here, i would be here every week.Personally given the quality of food and wine i found the pricing almost too cheap. If we were in England, you would have been charged an extra 20percent at least.Id certainly love to come back!

Essen sie den bushmills cheesecake, man möchte dafür sterben! Auch die suppe war gut, es war nur sehr voll, daher muss man ein wenig zeit mitbringen.

One would not expect a French restaurant in Northern Ireland. The food was incredible one of the best beef bourgeoise I have had and I have been to Paris many times.Service a little slow but get beyond that the fod is excellent.

Recommended by staff at Bushmills Inn and they were right, Friendly staff Excellent food and wine.Relaxed atmosphere reasonable price

Tartine was recommended by our B&B host, Bob, from White Road House, as solid value compared to other choices in Bushmills. He nailed it. In the opinion of 2 couples, Tartine offered the best brown bread during our stay in Ireland, fresh and moist. We thoroughly enjoyed the hosts, waiter/waitress staff, and the dining patrons with whom we visited. Dinner was delicious but can't remember what I even ordered. Particularly liked having the opportunity to sit by the fire during a chilling evening, while dinner was prepared. We were asked to the table when dinner was ready.

As soon as we walked through the door we knew we were giong to like this place. The staff were friendly, it was queit and relaxed with a welcoming athmosphere. I don't normally drink, but the staff were really friendly advising which cider to have and then asking me if i enjoyed it. I am vegetarian and not only did it have veggie options but something different to the normal lasagne or risotto too! The whole meal (both meat and veggie choices) was gorgeous and filling. We could not fault the food. And for pudding...well the strawboffee pie was to die for!! Just thinking about it now makes me smile! The only downside was that while I was paying, I got a phone call off my Dad to say my Grandma had just passed away and so I ended up running out the restaurant, upset, to talk to him - I hope they didnt think it was anything to do with them as until then it was the most perfect night! I hope to go back one day as it really was lovely.

Excellent food, chosen from a varied menu, served in pleasant surroundings by attentive staff. A good atmosphere, and at a reasonable price.

On arrival we got a seat beside a cosy fire and we ordered our meal. Tea time menu is a great menu and at reasonable price. My wife and I had 3 course meal and bottle of wine and Irish coffee for £54 pounds. The food was a touch of class. Service excellent. We would say its one of the best on the north coast. Well worth a visit. Worthy off all there awards.

I'll be honest; I had low expectations of Bushmills dining but this place proved me very wrong. Lovely room with roaring fire near entrance giving way to a mixture of old exposed brick with some more modern fittings and modern paintings. Very good menu which you would describe as being traditional irish/british food but with modern interpretation. The service was great. Staff were polite, quick and helpful. The room had a lively buzz to it. The food when it arrived was delicious. I can particularly recommend the crab starter and the venison. The sticky toffee pudding was also perfect. I hope the chef and owners keep up this current standard. I will definitely be back.

We were a bit confused by the seating arrangements at first. Also felt as if this restaurant was trying to be French. However, the food was wonderful and affordable. The staff were pleasant. Definitely would recommend this place!
