The best restaurants in Carrickfergus North Eastern NI

We dropped by for breakfast on a Saturday morning just as the cafe opened. Lovely service staff who told us that the scones would be ready in a few minutes. Breakfast was nice and the scones delicious, huge and fresh from the oven. We raved about them to the staff. Just before we left one of the young service staff came over with a box that had two scones in it. She told us they were from the day before and if we’d like to have them for free. They were still very good but since they were baked the day before, they wouldn’t sell them since they only served freshly baked scones. We were so touched by this lovely gesture and enjoyed them in the evening in our hotel room (and they were delicious even then).

Haven't used this bakery in years. The last time I did I received a blue moulded apple square. Bought a soda this morning. Felt like a brick when handed to me. Could barely cut through it when I got it home. Completely stale. I bought this item early in the morning. Definitely not made that day and I doubt if it was even yesterday's. Sometimes you can appreciate why the high street is dieing when this is the quality of goods being served up 😬

Very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The waiter/ host was very funny and all waitresses very helpful. Food was excellent and wine delicious.

Great bit of history here. Had a guide tour us around , it made for a very interesting couple of hours.

Great food and hospitality, friendly, welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Booked JKs for son's 21st birthday party. Staff were amazing as was the food we were very well looked after. A big thank you to all at JKs we all had a fantastic night.

Lovely shop and coffee shop. They do a nice French toast bacon and maple syrup and my favourite being the bagel and cheese. Coffee is good and the shop is nice for a little browse especially if you are looking for a wee gift.

On behalf of myself, Family and Friends, I would like to Thank Everyone at Carrickfergus Golf Club for hosting the Reception on the 13th November 2024, following the passing of my Brother James (Jimbo) Harvey, 17th February 1970 - 27th October 2024. Everyone and everything... the Staff, the Service (and the food ! ) was how he would of liked it. Thank You all.

Because the foods so good sometimes you have to queue and wait to get a seat but the food and prices are great

What a truly delightful wee place! Our new favourite takeaway!! Street hawker is the best thing to happen to the East. The quality of their food is outstanding. None of your generic crap that most restaurants seem to be pumping out these days! This wee place is heads and shoulders above those generic places!! The quality of their food and the portion sizes is honestly superb!! Well worth the money! That munchie box is incredible. It Took 4 of us to tackle it. My favourites are the big pork belly chunks with slaw & the prawathon Ross prawns. The gravy and dips are superb as an accompaniment & I love ordering them. The homemade pesto is a game changer. A boy named char Sui which is loaded fries with char Sui and pickles, chilli’s etc is absolutely incredible, it takes me and my 10yr old to finish it. It’s so tasty and really packed full of flavour. Their smash burger, KFC burger & wings are all really tasty as well. Oh and that corn dog is amazing!! Chef’s kiss!!

Gekozen voor de lunch, een heerlijk stuk vis geserveerd met krieltjes en een slaatje. Vriendelijke bediening in een gezellig ongedwongen kader dit samen met de collega's. We komen hier zeker terug

I'd a lovely morning at Whitehead Railway Museum and Platform 3 cafe. Delicious breakfast bap with tea served on China cup and saucer. Lovely staff and food delicious. This is a great place to eat and enjoy some history about railway.

Love calling down to Quarter House for a coffee and a bite to eat. Alison and the staff are so friendly and helpful. The coffee is great and the paninis are the best in Carrick! Great wee spot

The service is great and the staff are always welcoming. The food from the breakfast and lunch menus are really tasty, especially the Sunday dinner! My favourite is salad sandwiches with coleslaw, although the smokey joe panini is a close second! It is a bit expensive, however, and some of the portions are small.

This place does the best pizzas. Piping hot.delivery was very quick.best pizza I've had for a while.great value and staff very friendly.il definitely be getting from there again.
