The Trocadero Restaurant in Coleraine

This place used to be great but has gone down badly. We called in for some lunch, opted for the stew but it was tasteless and no meat just big chunks of potatoes, hardly any carrot too. Will not be back and wouldn't recommend. Even their scones didnt look great and they used to be lovely.

Called in for afternoon coffee and a biscuit each. Good service and nice coffee, no sweeteners left which was not great as we are both Diabetic, it is so easy to keep a popper of Hermesetas behind the counter just in case your usual sachets are run out.I think we will start carrying sweeteners just in case, as there are a surprising number of establishments that do not think of Diabetic Diners, including some quite high brow places. Nevertheless the food was fine. I would have given 5 stars if there had been sweeteners.

If you just want to sit and relax looking down on the Main St watching the world go by then do some shopping in the White House and visit the restaurant. Good service and good Tea and Coffee and scones or shortbread. Worth a visit

We called in here this morning to have breakfast before starting our homeward journey. We ordered 2 fries and 2 teas. The fries were brought to our table in due course. The food may have been cooked on a hot plate as the soda bread just looked as if it had been rubbed along a surface that needed cleaned as there were black marks on the white soda bread. It did not look as if it had been fried at all. The potato bread didn’t look properly cooked either.The bacon had black markings on it too. The top of the egg yolks had an area the size of a ten piece coin which had not been cooked. The sausages were perfectly fine. On hind sight I should have sent the food straight back. So will definitely not go there for a fry again. We had also called there yesterday while shopping in the Whitehouse and had tea and a traybake. We have been visiting the Whitehouse for many years as we caravan in Portrush every year. We always used to enjoy their beautiful scones but sadly they are awful now. I do hope they get these things sorted out as it was always a favourite haunt of ours.

We always eat here when in Portrush but today was the last.time. A 30 minute wait for our meals and then hot meals served on stone cold plates. If they want any trade during the week of the Open, they would need to get their ac together!!

Maintenance work should be carried out when cafe is closed. Stale buns served. Not a pleasant place to sit. Do painting on a Sunday when closed. Baby jaysus wouldn't mind 🤣😂

Stopped for a tea break when shopping in the White House. The staff were friendly and a good selection of thing to eat and freshly made.

Came on Easter Monday, was very busy (expected) waited in line and ordered our food and then we waited and waited. Four more meals came out before ours, yet they ordered after us. Over 45 minutes later asked a server to check on our food and she said she would check but didn’t come back. We decided to wait a further 10 minutes and nothing came. Went to get a refund as the food came out (not what we ordered). Both staff and management very rude. Eventually got our refund. Got a chippy instead, and actually got our food.

Have often taken time for a. Coffee here with a traybake while out shopping in comfortable surroundings. Good Value for money.

just had a sandwich and coffee in afternoon, Sandwich had good filling and we sat out in the area overlooking main street. Satisfactory snack type food and friendly staff at self service area

We called in here while visiting the "Port".I think there was about half and hour till closing but the lady serving was welcoming. The coffee and scones were delicious too.

Went to Portrush for the day called in for lunch.got bowl of stew each with wheaten bread which was lovely only down side was meat in stew very chewy.would definitely go back & would recommend.beach in Portrush beautiful lovely scenery . B,ann

We called in for lunch, the food is tasty and reasonably priced but it is the staff that make the place. They are friendly, helpful and attentive. Would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Having been shopping in the White House we visited the restaurant within and found it great value for money with lovely food and friendly staff .

Visited The White House, Portrush cafe in early July. Really nice traybakes, which people can have while watching the busy Portrush main street.

Came in with my mum and my aunt as me, my Mum are visiting from Scotland, asked for a burger and I took a bite out of the burger and it tasted funny so I cut it open and it wasn’t even cooked properly pink in the middle. We told a staff member who was lovely about it but got asked if I wanted another burger but I was put off last time, I use the restaurant.

Visited yesterday for breakfast. The full fry consisted of the worst quality ingredients I've had in an Ulster Fry. The sausages were the poorest i have ever had. The beans were shocking. But the worst of all was the cleanliness, the place is filthy. Look at the floors under the radiators! Hasn't been cleaned in years.

We had a light lunch which was quite acceptable but nothing special. Staff were friendly and efficient but the place is badly lacking in ambiance for anything other than a quick snack whilst shopping.

I reguarly enjoy a healthy walk round Portrush starting at the West Strand, via the harbour, over Ramore Head and round to the East Strand. However by two-thirds of the way round the mouth is dry and the stomach is rumbling.

Upstairs in The White House. Nothing pretentious, grand for coffee and cake or soup and sandwich. And a fine retreat if some of the party are taking too long in the shop.

We were looking for somewhere for a bowl of soup or similar mid afternoon and were finding it difficult to find anywhere in Portrush. This department store had a restaurant/cafe so we decided to try it. There was a choice of soup and other meals. We both had the soup which was very good, served with excellent wheaten bread.

We called in here for lunch and opted for stew which for £3.69 was great value for money considering how large the bowl was and it was very tasty. The staff were friendly and helpful.
