The best restaurants in Coleraine North Eastern NI

The chips were very tasty and a decent quantity. However the chicken fillet burger consisted more of crispy batter than actual chicken. I thought I was going to break my teeth with the amount of crispy batter or else have a heart attack. Amazing chips but let down by the batter. I paid a whooping £10.50 for my chips and battered chicken fillet. I would like to point out however that the business was amazingly clean and spotless and someone was wiping the benches when I was getting served.

Went here on a Saturday night in the hope of getting a table. It was closed. Apparently it only opens on Sunday. Why bother??

If I could give zero stars, I would. This was hands down the worst dining experience I’ve ever had. We were in and out in under 30 minutes – and not because we were in a rush. The staff were unfriendly and dismissive, and the food was even worse. We went for the carvery, and I seriously regret not checking the reviews beforehand. The meat was overcooked, dry, and tough, while the vegetables were barely edible – limp, flavourless, and looked like they’d been sitting out for hours. We barely touched our plates before deciding to leave. Truly disappointing from start to finish.

This Mauds has always been somewhere I'd avoid, but I was in a rush and it was the closest cafe. Thinking "how badly can they mess a crepé up?", I gave it another shot. Expecting something fresh (as they used to serve here), I was horrified to see the disinterested staff member shove a pre-made crepé into a tiny air-fryer. After a lengthy wait (longer than it takes to make a fresh crepé), I was treated to a cold, hard cone of disappointment, remembering it cost £6 with each bite taken. No napkins or cutlery were provided, nor was it made clear where to get them. The layout of this place is terrible. Ice cream, crepes, churros, and some cold drinks seem to be served from the front, while hot drinks and sandwiches can be bought from a counter at the back. There's very few tables, and combined with the dirtiness and exclusive use of paper plates and plastic cutlery, you wonder why they don't operate purely as a takeaway. This "café" is an embarrassment to Mauds and customers visiting who may have been to other Cafe Mauds like those in Belfast will be bitterly disappointed. I can't stress this enough, AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS. Please don't be tempted by its great location, walk to one of the many other great cafés in Portrush. Babushka, Follow Coast, Ocean Deli, My Pie and Ground are all amazing spots for brunch nearby. Milk Parlour and Morelli's are excellent for ice cream.

If this were a small business without a multi national operation to bail it out this pizza outlet would be liquidated years ago. Diabolical food, service, staff, and shop.

The interior downstairs is beautiful with a lovely bar, the barmaid was pleasant however we where pestered by a drunk man wearing a long black coat with a tattoo on his hand, he came over to where we were sitting and asked us what where we doing here he got rude and came out with unpleasant comments he then offered to shake hands with us we went along with it just to try and get rid of him he squeezed our hands in purpose to get a reaction from us, we just got up and left, this parasite is bad for business a truly horrible experience.

Delicious, had the mega box which was perfect for us as a family to share. Quality of the food was good and the staff were pleasant too. Will definitely visit again

me and my sister were on a date and i was appealed by the disrespect from the staff. Johnny threatened to hurt me because of my beliefs and how i viewed my family.
