Turley's Bar in Banbridge

Oh my word what a hidden gem. A fantastic bar. Lovely staff and perfect food. We went in steak night and could ask for no more. We loved it

Excellent food, service, and atmosphere will be back again.

Food and service was great. 1st time here and will definitely return. Although we didn't stay the bar was very busy with a great atmosphere.

1st time here tonight for the steak deal and definitely won't be the last, food excellent and staff so friendly and welcoming

Food was good, service was exceptionally slow, heading on an hour to get starters, member of staff did apologize though

Who'd have thought that this was out there. Staff were lovely.

It was nice and welcoming and enjoyable as usual lovely to see

Food and ans staff great would recomend value for money 😚

Had the roast beef special tonight, beautiful food and the staff are wonderful.. Deff recommended.

Fantastic food and a very warm welcome

Friendly service from all staff, great atmosphere with delicious food. Would highly recommend and will be returning. Thanks for a great night

Stop what you’re doing and book this place!!! Totally overwhelmed with how good this place was, we have eat in lots of fine restaurants all over the world, but have to say I think this is actually the best restaurant I’ve been to and it’s in the middle of nowhere! Totally faultless from start to finish, food was soooo good, service was great and reasonably priced. Can’t recommend highly enough, you owe it to yourself to try this one!!!

With views of the Mourne Mountains be sure to reserve a window seat. The food was excellent and a good selection of dishes on the menu. The atmosphere was relaxed. Staff were very attentive and friendly. Good selection of beers etc. Would easily recommend based on my experience.

We were informed that yesterday, due to family moving on, was last day they are serving food after 4 years. But they have interest in sale so is possible it might not be the end.

Food excellent staff v friendly . . . Great experience...

Lovely location. Was disappointed with the quality of food delivered, lacked flavor.

Lovely food ,in nice settings and friendly staff.

Lovely food..tasted good./piping hot..Menu good.. service excellent..good selection of veg and potatoes. ..Desserts and starters gorgeous..Best overall meal I've had in a while. Will certainly be back here .Staff very warm and friendly.Lovely atmosphere and in a lovely part of the world!

We had a gorgeous Sunday lunch on Father's Day. Food beautifully cooked and presented. Staff very friendly and efficient. Beautiful views and warm and friendly atmosphere. Altogether excellent . Thank you

Food was outstanding & staff very attentive

Fantastic food and friendly and helpful staff. Woul highly recommend.

Repas de midi avec nos amis du jumelage, groupe de 40 personnes, tres bien servie d'un irish stew avec gateaux de pommes en dessert. Bon et gouteaux, on ne peut pas avoir mieux. Felicitations au chef.

Myself, my wife and 9 month old arrived here on a Saturday evening without a reservation, something which I never do having worked years in the industry. The staff and management were very accommodating to us and couldn't do enough from start to finish. The risotto special starter was amazing and should be on the menu full time. Value for money and atmosphere were fantastic. The only downside is that I don't live close or Flax would be a regular stop off of mine!! Keep up the good work all.

Amazing family friendly restaurant. Lovely staff and great views. Proper home cooked food

It was excellent as usual. Food and staff are brilliant

Didn't like it I had salmon the plate had oil all over it cabbage was just okay my husband had roast beef it had no flavour and gravy no flavour at all won't be back service was good

What a outstanding place to spend your Sunday afternoon meal was amazing service made you feel welcome... definitely be back

We visited today for a large family event. Food was excellent, beautiful place and excellent service. Would definitely recommend.

Tucked away in the countryside, with stunning views of the Mournes, this is well worth a visit. Sunday lunch for 6 with a menu that offered the usual Sunday meats and a selection of alternatives if required. Decent sized portions with bowls of well prepared veg and the offer of more if we had managed to finish all of those, which we couldn’t. Desserts were homemade and just as tasty. Unrushed but not slow and service friendly & attentive but not intrusive. Definitely recommended.

Truly excellent food.. highly recommend

Great food and friendly service

Flax never fails to deliver fabulous food! The 10 oz fillet steak was cooked to perfection and served by lovely, friendly staff who genuinely want you to have a great time. Nothing is too much bother. If you are nearby - a visit is a must! Great food at very reasonable prices.

Have been quite a few times now and have never been disappointed. Excellent service. Great value. Well appointed restaurant and cosy bar area. Good range of quality food.

Fantastic meal hot and plenty on the plate. Great service and very friendly with a great atmosphere.

Simply Fantastic food at a very reasonable price in a charming rural setting with a relaxed atmosphere. "What else would you want??" The staff are very inviting and Obviously care about what they serve you. It seems customer care takes priority and is second to none. This wee place is an absolute hidden jem!!

First class service from start to finish. I was there today. There were 7 adults & 5 children in our group & everything was effortless to the staff. From taking all our orders to serving our dishes, clearing the table between each course & finding time for friendly chat with each of us throughout. The staff are very welcoming & it's like sitting in your own family's lounge. So relaxed & comfortable & nothing too much trouble. The food is outstanding & doesn't cost the earth!!! Extremely good value & myself & my family will definitely return. I will definitely without a doubt recommend Turleys to anyone & everyone. It is an absolute credit to the owners.

Called in without a reservation and were warmly welcomed despite the restaurant being very busy. The staff were exemplary, service fine and food good. Would come again.

Lovyfood, very friendly and great location

Lovely, family owned restaurant and bar in the middle of a bunch of mountains and has a beautiful view from a huge window. I live just down the road but I still love going down there for a family night. The interior is beautiful and has a nice warm feel. Had great vegetarian options.

Meal was first class and service was great

Nice weekend meal, very good quality food

Innovative takes on traditional food with homemade touches in a beautiful country setting. The friendliest people made us feel welcome. We'd go back in a heartbeat

Somewhat slow service on a busy night detracted from an otherwise delightful visit.

Delicious food in warm comfortable surroundings

Great food and service. Nice views from restaurant.

Staying in the local area for a weekend away so came to turleys for a dinner date. Was a lovely restaurant with great views over the countryside, service was good, food was great

I'd prefer to have given 3 and a half stars! Amazing location but although it wasn't very busy when we arrived, we were seated in the darkest corner table on a glorious day, away from the huge feature window, and told that people had reserved the tables with a view. The service was unbelievably slow. We had to actually go and ask how long our food was going to be because after 45 mins we still hadn't had our starter... It was only a mushroom! Saying that, when the food arrived, it was delicious. I can't fault it. And good value. We saw people served and brought their food, who had arrived after us, which is always frustrating. The owner was also working tables and was really lovely and sincere. Really nice person but I can't rate it any higher because of the service and the lack of attention we received. We were there over 2 hours for a 3 course meal we ordered in one go, at the very start. There is too much competition in this market to have service this slow and when speaking to ppl after our visit, many of. Then said they'd had the same experience. Such a shame

Fantastic service beautiful food all round 5 🌟 experience will be back soon

Whilst you have to drive out of town to Turleys its so well worth the trip. Set in the countryside above Moneyslane. Went with my family on a Saturday evening for a nuce evening out. Setting is fantastic, plenty if room to park, small restiarant so tastefully done. Greeted by such friendly staff so helpful and attentive. Great menu; steaks and chicken supreme delicious great portionssife orders really tasty, reasonably priced. A super evening Will definetely be back in fact rebooked for Thursday taking another family member. Well done Turley's...

This place was recommended to us by friends..four of went for an evening meal. There was lots of parking and the building itself is beautiful. We were greeted by lovely friendly staff who got us drinks and also took our order for the food ...we were shown upstairs which looks out over the Mourne Mountains as we had asked for window seats..The food arrived quickly and was piping hot. We all enjoyed our meals and the staff were so helpful and pleasant explaining, all about the area as my friend is interested in local history etc. Will be back very soon...well worth a visit,

Great dinner, very friendly welcome. Thanks

On Saturday night my partner and myself visited this restaurant set in the rolling countryside outside Castlewellan and with beautiful views. The service was friendly in the bar prior to our meal and a number of locals were congregated there enjoying a quiet drink. The menus arrived for our perusal and we both selected the steak, which when it arrived was nicely cooked and well presented. Staff were helpful and pleasant in what I found out to be is a family run restaurant with Frank, the chef, at the head of proceedings. The restaurant is a little bit out of town, but definitely worth the drive.

Lovely food and great views whilst your eating what more could you want 😁

Food and service was excellent. Views of the Mournes were very good too.

Friendly staff. Lovely food. Relaxing atmosphere.

Very good food, staff are super friendly. Lovely views of mourne mts. Great bar.

Food and service was fantastic. Staff make you feel like home. Food is amazing.

We visited last night with friends who had eaten here several times before and we weren’t disappointed. Everything from the view to the food to the service was excellent! We’ll definitely be back!

Went here with a couple of friends . Steak was done to perfection sauce perfection champ perfection . Staff were very very friendly no rushing about had a couple of drinks before we started our meal.Beautiful surroundings decor lovely . Someone said to me you can always tell if its a nice restaurant by its toilets ??. Lovely and clean and i mean immaculate.. All round its a perfect place to eat ... Would i go back 100%. And there will be a lot more of us next time .. Table for 8 please.!! Well done keep up the good standard 👍👍👍👍👍.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. We were taken upstairs given a menu and a drink. The menu was surprisingly varied and the trouble was selecting from so many tempting dishes. The dishes we selected were of excellent quality and proportion.We left about 90 minutes later well fed after settling a reasonable bill.

Went as a family for Sunday lunch, everyone enjoyed our meal, staff very attentive and nothing to much trouble. Portions were nice size and all the family left satisfied.

Super food and great value, I would highly recommend the pub grub menu, we'll be back again

Excellent food and service. Warm atmosphere.

Myself and my family went there for sunday lunch. Staff were very friendly and nothing was too much to ask. Food was excellent. The price was very reasonable, even more so when you consider the quality of the meat. Can't wait to go back, the live music looks brillant.

Lovely place food was excellent

Lovely food and always great service.

Tried Turley’s for the first time today on the way back from Newcastle. Went here based on reviews and wasn’t disappointed. Well worth a visit. Will be back to try the evening menu soon.

This was our first visit to Turleys following a recommendation by someone who had been there recently.. we were not disappointed.. the food was excellent.. beautifully presented and good size portions. We had roast beef dinner- beautiful melt in your mouth meat, lovely tasting vegetables ... one of the best Sunday roasts we have had out this year !! Friendly polite staff and lovely surroundings. We were so impressed we bought gift vouchers as Christmas presents for family members.. we hope to return soon!!

Lovely surrounding food and service very good worth a visit

Nice atmosphere, good food, friendly staff

Great spot with super view. Nice food and staff

Been several times now and the food is consistently good. Friendly staff, nice views over the Mournes, great gin and cocktail list. Dining area also well thought out as not one of these places where they put you right next to someone you could touch elbows with! The only down side is they are only open from Thursday to Sunday.

We went as a family of 5 whilst on our holiday and the food was delicious. The portions were huge and it was very reasonably priced. Would recommend for the stunning view alone. Staff were very helpful recommending places to visit.

This is our third visit to Flax and as always the food was lovely. Brillant service and gorgeous views overlooking the mournes. There was a really nice friendly and relaxed atmosphere in both the bar and the restaurant. We will be back very soon

Had a something to eat last night couldn't describe it as a meal. There was a lot of points that didn't come up to scratch, I ordered a gin and tonic pre dinner drink. The gin came with tonic already included. I normally only use a half a tonic per drink so a bad start.a starter of battered mushrooms and garlic mayonnaise I must give credit it was average. My main course of rib eye steak was tough giving even the steak knife difficulty to cut it.it was dry and tasteless. My wife ordered the pork which arrived with a horrible sauce, so bad we had to swop meals. So I had an opportunity to sample both Dishes. Again very disappointed. The couple we were with had similar experience declaring we won't be back.i didn't dare Order a sweet as I had an idea of the quality to expect. Asking for a tooth pick and was brought a single uncovered cocktail stick with no wrapper and handled by the bar manager expecting me then to put it in my mouth. Extremely disappointed, won't be back.

Great meal, fantastic views, friendly service.

Great food brilliant service and of course finbar singing

My brother and his wife and son are visiting from England. They are very outdoor type people wanted to go to slieve croob.

bar/ restaurant in a beautiful setting at the foot if the mourne mountains. Great atmosphere and excellent food . Great service from waiting staff .. Good was 1st class . Highly recommended

Over visiting family and booked in for meal. Service wasn't rushed, extremely friendly and everything was delicious. Particularly excellent value for starters (I recommend the ribs) and pints, all steaks were cooked very well, only wish I'd had room for pudding!

Excellent food and service. Great friendly staff, good menu and very reasonably priced. The view is also fantastic.

Thank you so much for a wonderful meal celebrating my Mum's birthday. The food was fantastic - My partner and I had fillet steak which was amazing, cooked to perfection and certainly more than 8oz. My daughter is a fussy 5yr old and it was no problem to mix and match food from the Kid's menu! My Mum enjoyed the beautiful salmon. The service by Sinead was second to none. Overall a lovely evening with beautiful views. Thank you all so much.

Have been here a few times and never fails to disappoint. Staff are friendly, informal and accommodating. Food delicious and great value for money. Lovely setting, thoroughly recommend it!

Exceptional service. Excellent food. Reasonably priced. Fabulous views. The staff couldn't have done any more to suit. If you are in the dromara Rathfriland Newcastle area then well worth a visit. Only criticism is I would recommend sirloin over the rib eye. Overall a great experience

I have visited a few times now for Sunday dinner and it has been lovely on all occasions. Proper good food and desserts with excellent service

Been here twice recently and very impressed with the food and service.The menu is extensive and uses local produce and all served with a smile ! Guinness is great too! Try it you wont regret it!

This is the first time my family and I have visited this place and all I can say is that the food is beautiful. The staff are so pleasant and we where so relaxed as the food was not rushed. My dad also thought the Guinness was 10/10. We have booked it for next week as the food and service was 1st class. Highly recommended and Very very satisfied to anyone!!

First time being at turleys flax restaurant and have to say it's was first class service. Food was amazing. Waiters/waitresses were very attentive and polite. Nice relaxed friendly atmosphere. I will definitely be back 😀

Had a meal here last weekend. We ordered mushroom and chilli chicken starters, quite a portion! Main course we had a sirloin and fillet steaks, with chunky chips and mash to share, we couldnt finish it all. Tasted great. No room for dessert unfortunatley.

Fablous meal at Flax Restaurant at Turleys Bar. Great service and friendly staff. Food was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone and probably the best brownie I've had, for dessert. Highly recommended and I will be back..

Downstairs bar, typical warm friendly Irish welcome if you just want a drink, upstairs Bistro. Warm welcoming atmosphere. Decor very relaxing. The Menu whilst not huge, plenty for all to eat whatever their taste. Rib Eye Steak and Herb Salmon excellent, Wine very reasonably priced. Didn't have a dessert as so full from meal. This is definitely one not to miss. Not been open very long but I for one will be back on my next visit to Northern Ireland
