Went a couple of weeks ago for a concert and it was diabolical there wasn't enough seats for everyone and when the doors opened the bar wasn't ready people had to wait on the beer kegs being turned on wasn't enough staff on to deal with the crowd so alot of the time we had to go in next door to the main bar to get a drink so ended up missing half of the show was a bit of a joke to be honest

First time visiting this great place. Here for an engagement party, impressive venue, hip and trendy decor. The staff member who served our table was so attentive and helpful, from taking drinks orders, food order, clearing tables and all whilst so friendly and cheerful, made our night, thankyou! (Blonde haired lady with Irish accent). Food was lovely, the band was so good, really enjoyed the music. And then a DJ to end the night. Highly recommended, pity I didn't live nearer!

First time eating here and was not disappointed. There is a carpark at the complex. We went on a Thursday evening and it was quite busy, even with this the food arrived quickly. The server was friendly and came back to our a couple of times during our meal to check if everything was ok or we needed anything. The food was lovely, their peppered sauce was very tasty and both our mains were a good sized portion. They have an outdoor area with picnic tables and many people were taking advantage of the good evening to enjoy a drink or meal outside.

Sat outside cos the weather was fantastic. Very pleasant place to sit with plenty of tables and chairs. Not sure that I would have been keen on sitting inside as it's quite dark. Not sure if that's just for the ambience but not my preferred setting. Not sure how often the glasses would have been cleared from the table as I took in empties each time I visited the bar! Staff were nice.

We went on Father's day, so it was understandably busy. However we had to wait an hour for our main course and 45 minutes for a dessert. For only a group of four people, we all thought it was incredibly slow. I think they forgot about our dessert as I ordered ice cream and it was slightly melted. Furthermore, we got the offer for two courses, however we almost got over charged if we hadn't have noticed the error. The live music was very good but it was a shame that our food took so long

A lovely place for a meal or a drink. Prices are reasonable and the staff is friendly. There is lots of seating that allows for larger groups to sit together. We saw a play in the upstairs room, and although it was sold out, we didn't feel crowded. A nice place to spend an evening. The only thing I found that was a bit negative was that the choice in beer on tap was different from other bars. Still, we did fine!

I like to start of, with I wasn't happy with the service I got tonight. I brought my family out for my daughters confirmation 10 adults and 12 kids. Took them long to get served first. 1st, the kids food some was missing and had to wait 20mins before I realised they forgot. 2nd Have no non alcoholic drinks for us drivers. 3rd. After adults starters waited another 50mins before we got our mains out. And they got some of the orders wrong.not as if it was busy on a Wednesday night. Don't get me wrong we all went out for my 40th few weeks before and was more of us and the service was amazing from a lady NICULA. But tonight took the biscuit don't feel I could go back for food again. The food was still amazing but need to be sharper coming out. Far play they did give us discount. Dev you need to look into this more.

We went for Christmas lunch. Food was good but Christmas menu was advertised but not actually provided. Service was a little slow for drinks. Also, football was on - which is of course fine - but the volume of it was so loud even in the restaurant section. Just a bit unnecessary and made us leave earlier than we would have perhaps stayed.

Been to the Devenish restaurant many times (2/3 times a month) but have to say the last few times have been ridiculous for waiting on food. It got to the point today we paid for our starters and left! Arrived and sat at our table at 5.30, and had a starter, coming on 7pm and still waiting on our mains but no sign and the restaurant was near empty. A couple sat at table nxt to us were waiting as long and looking fed up also! Called waitress who apologised and spoke to the manager who did absolutely nothing but apologise also so we left! The kitchen seems to be a massive problem, watched the young pizza guy pace up and down as if he had nothing to do (pizza was one of our mains!) Watched the manager give off about cold food and threw it in the bin! Clearly something needs to be done before you lose more customers, we won’t be bk!!

Hi, My name is shauneen lenzi, I'm just home from the worst night I have ever had at the devnish. Was subject to sectarianism, and the worst bar service ever. Have been going to this bar for 25 years (am 43) it has historically had slow service but was worth it cause the craic was always good.....I could not say that now. How this establishment has not hired enough staff to furnish the amount of customers it gets has always been beyond me.  I waited over 30minutes saw 2 rounds of people served b4 me as I eventually gave up and left taking my friend with me. It was an absolute disgrace. I wont be back. Maybe one day you will work out your staff ratio, just a pity u havnt b4 now. Sent from my Galaxy

The food was good and the place is overall very nice but the staff have zero communication skills. So unprofessional, our starters came before our drinks and when we asked a waiter about it they said they saw it coming but we were still waiting another 10mins. Overall 30 mins waiting on drinks. Brought the wrong main to the table and had multiple staff members come over at once asking what we ordered. Mistakes happen but this issue could have been sorted by one member off staff not 4.
