The best restaurants in Ballymena North Eastern NI

Lovely staff, nice food and very reasonably priced. But would love to see some vegan options added to the menu it would bring in a lot of business:)

This is a lovely place to have lunch or a snack from modern and unique menu options. The lounge has really comfortable seating and tables. Coffee is really good and a window seat treats you to lovely views over the monastery grounds. Its a great place for meeting up with friends or family or sitting solo chilling with the paper.

We were here this evening (10th October) for my Dads birthday. It's been a while since I've been at a restaurant with such a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Nothing was too much trouble, food is cooked to order so if you don't like mushrooms they'll take them out. We'll definitely be back

We visited here for lunch . We were driving home from a weekend up North and looking for a Brunch/ Lunch . As it was a Monday a lot of places were closed. We stumbled across this place and glad we did - great friendly service . I had.Hallomi burger and my Husband had club sandwich both very tasty and good portion size . We will be back 👍

Absolutely fantastic hidden gem on Broughshane St, Ballymena. Service is second to none and coffee tastes fab! Have a lovely selection of homemade sausage rolls, sweet treats etc. The side nook for sitting down and watching the world go by is also a bonus, with a cozy vibe and heaters for the chillier weather. Highly recommend!

Great food, well presented with excellent quality and service from friendly staff 👌

Can't beat the belly buster :) one of my favourite food trucks around.

Great wee chip shop and even better prices

Not the best meal I've had I ordered the haddock and chips everything tasted of garlic and the haddock was swimming in mushy peas. I've had the same meal in Coleman's and Jake's bar in Antrim much better and cheaper. Out of 10 I'd give the Halfway house a 5 .

Now called 'Berts Cafe'. Has a local clientele and is locally popular

Fantastic food and friendly, attentive helpful staff. All day fry is amazing and is all excellently and freshly cooked just like you want it. (Unlike other cafes in Ballymena town) Poached eggs are cooked perfectly every time. 😋 The breakfast wrap with added potato bread and brown sauce is another excellent choice. 👌 🫶🤛

Afternoon tea at Oranmore House is a must! Beautiful building located within lovely grounds. Food is excellent and service from staff is fantastic. Highly recommend

Called in for brunch and we e weren't disappointed. Food and coffee were delicious, we will be back soon! Staff were helpful and pleasant also!

Lovely location, beautiful food and excellent service, staff very friendly and attentive. Beautiful grounds, very well maintained and relaxing atmosphere 😊
