The Fuzzy Beak in Carrickfergus - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Bought family vouchers for Xmas after enjoying a few meals, and they have not had a chance to use them before the restraunts sudden closure...pity!

The service was appalling. Having received the menus we had to then go and seek out a server to take our order after over a 20 minute delay. At end of starter course we again had to seek a server and ask if our dishes could be removed and the next course served. The food was little better. The goats cheese starter was little more than a roll of cheese, where was the advertised caramelised nuts? Main course fish of the day, Hake, was dry, served in broken pieces and had zero flavour. We like to support local business but sadly will not return here.

The initial greeting was that there would be a 15 min wait. No issue although the restaurant was quiet so a bit surprising. They then forgot to bring us menus so when we did get a menu we ordered dinner and it came in good time. I immediately though noticed that my fish batter was limp and not cooked properly so sent it back. When it came back all was ok however I then noticed that there were 8 chips in total. When it came to pay we mentioned that there had been no acknowledgement of the food issue and were told there would be nothing off the bill as they had recktified the issue. It would be difficult to recommend a restaurant with such poor customer service and lack of attention to what they serve with portions very poor

We went for the first time for Mother’s Day 3 adults and 5 children,the staff were amazing from start to finish couldnt do enough for us and the restaurant was packed,the food (all three courses)was one of the best meals we have had in a very long time ,the goats cheese starter was a proper portion of actual goats cheese not mixed or watered down with anything else to save on cost like other places do and really good portions with all the meals,the pork was melt in your mouth gorgeous and moist ,the kids meals were made from good fresh ingredients and a good size also ,we will definitely be back to try the steak night and Sunday roast 🥰

Wow. Great food and Service. Why has it taken us 18 months to find you. Wonderful Sunday dinner great value and top class produce. We travel around NI looking for the best restaurant food and you guys just hit the mark. Thank you. We will be back.

Lovely lunch with friends, we all thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The standard of service and food was as always excellent. We were really well looked after by all of the staff but a special mention to Mark who made us the most delicious cocktails. Looking forward to dining at the Fuzzy Beak again.

A great experience from the moment we walked through the door. Friendly, welcoming and attentive staff, super decor, and a great buzz. We both had steaks and they were perfect. Lovely prawns, pepper sauce, mash and chips too... and sure why wouldn't you finish off with a rhubarb crumble? Can't wait to go back 😎

Excellent service and exceptional food. Good portions and great options. Allergy explanations very good and unexpected. Nice views. Already booked another visit.

Third time visiting this restaurant and have always enjoyed the food and staff are lovely and very attentive but we feel the prices are too high unfortunately. This is reflected in how quiet it can be at times especially early in the week at lunch times. These are city centre prices and portions are not that big for the price paid. I do hope this place doesn’t become another victim of the cost of living crisis as a result because it really is a great wee place.

This was our second visit - our first one about 6 months ago didn’t impress us so we decided to try again. The staff are superb - so polite and helpful without being too intrusive. Our food was absolutely beautiful - incredibly tasty. We had main courses and deserts and both were first class. (Totally different standard of food to our first visit). We will be back.

Five of us went today for a birthday Sunday dinner. We all had different dishes which were delicious. The service and staff were equally good. We were all very impressed. The location is great inside and out.

Venue is very well presented. Waiting staff are very professional, pleasant and attentive. We have been 3 or 4 times since restaurant first opened and always left feeling the food was mediocre. Had high Hope's with new chefs starting. Pork belly starter and main awful! The starter was over the top hot (chillies) and tough and the pork belly main again tough! Beef and bird was marginally better with pleasant mash and beef n overcooked chicken strips . Again waiting staff are very pleasant.

We have been here on numerous occasions and it never disappoints. From first contact with the wonderful staff right through until we left nothing was too much trouble. The food as usual was delicious. I would suggest the lamb shank which was cooked to perfection. We had an extremely enjoyable evening. Once again well done to all the Fuzzy Beak team!

I live within walking distance of here, when it was the bentra we were never out of it, we were all excited about the new venue opening, unfortunately we have only been here on three occasions since it opened, we went on one of the first nights and it was a disaster, no other words, we put it down to the chaos of opening and decided to wait a while before returning, we waited over an hour for our steaks to arrive, it wasn’t a huge issue as we were enjoying a bottle of wine and a chat, the steaks were fine nothing special but saved cooking ourselves, we were here the other day for the first time in maybe a year, food was cold and really nothing special the prices are crazy and I can’t imagine ever going back, we eat in whitehead golf club most weeks and the food and the service is always excellent , such a shame as the decor and views are lovely, most of our neighbours feel the same as none of them use it

This was a charming venue with attentive staff. The menu was quite broad and the food tasty, I liked the idea of cheesecake of the day plus it was delicious.

Last time I visited, this was the Bentra bar and grill, they have given the place a makeover and it is very nice with a pleasant atmosphere. The food was high quality, I had bird and beef I think it was called shredded beef on a bed of champ(tatties and scallions) with some chicken goujons. Will definitely have to visit again when I'm next over

Brought the wife and kids here for Sunday dinner. The staff were amazing, couldn't do enough for us. The food was first class, starters, main course the lot. It was actually the first time in a while I ordered my steak rare and it wasn't over cooked. We will difinetly be back.

Let’s start with the positives lovely views, clean and spacious restaurant but the most important positive was the excellent staff. The young waiter was enthusiastic charming knowable and helpful lovely guy an asset to the restaurant. The food on the other hand was disappointing the open prawn sandwich was lacking in prawns and the wheaten bread was hard and dry. The overall taste was of caramelised onions ????? Who thought onions in abundance was an essential addition to a traditional prawn sandwich. Sorry the taste didn’t work for me. My friend fared a little better her Caesar salad was just ok So all in all lots of positives but the food let it down
