The best restaurants in North Eastern NI

Food really good ive been there twice in the last 4 months , the only thing that lets them down is the service, really bad at clearing tables etc , asked 4 times for the bill ..gets really annoying.....

Great family food and value basket meals in the bar, shame the new manager is getting rid of them apparently .

Delightful restaurant in this lovely coastal location. Staff were welcoming, friendly and a source of local information. Meals were simple and delicious. Lavatory very clean. Very reasonable prices.

Nice comfortable restaurant, friendly helpful staff I had chicken and steak which was lovely only slight criticism was I like my steak well done and it was red in the middle. Apart from that it was very nice We also had sea bass which was excellent also Quite reasonable and would return

The food and the service is great

Ground Coffee Shop in Ballymoney is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot to relax or catch up with friends. The coffee is consistently top notch, rich, smooth, and full of flavour. They also offer a great selection of cakes and snacks that perfectly complement their drinks. The staff are always friendly and provide excellent service, adding to the welcoming vibe. Whether you’re after a quick coffee or a leisurely visit, Ground Coffee Shop is a must visit in Ballymoney. Highly recommend!

Tonight I had the regular Siciliana pizza. Top Notch! First class. Currently Piccolo is the leader of Pizzas in Ballymoney. Unlike other current providers in Ballymoney, when eating a Pizza out of Piccolo you know you are eating the best. The quality and taste far outweighs that of Pizza from other providers. Good value for money also.

The best pizza I've ever eaten and I'm a pizza snob ! Young friendly staff who keep the place spotless. The fact that you can BYO for a very reasonable corkage fee makes for a cheap and cheerful evening out. The atmosphere is good but I'm just surprised that the place is not bursting at the seams with customers as the pizza and service is much better than other popular pizza restaurants in the area. Love this place ❤️

Absolutely loved my visit here on a busy nice warm sunny day. That didn't hold the staff back in making our toasties in any way. Within minutes of ordering we had our delicious toasties on the table. We both had chilli chicken and cheese toastie. Chai latte and a tea. If I were to be super critical my chai latte wasnt just as sweet as Id normally have it however it was really good. Quite refreshing actually. And the correct temperature. Recommend! Lovely atmosphere. Fast friendly. Delicious food. Yes yes yes.

Food was lovely, well priced and the staff were extremely attentive and friendly. Chicken tikka massala was beautiful.

Great food, good size portions worth the money

Chocoa used to be the place to go for amazing hot chocolate in Ballymena, but it's really gone downhill recently. Before they closed the bistro, the quality had already started slipping. The service became sloppy, and the cosy vibe that made it special just wasn't there anymore. The hot chocolate itself, which used to be rich and delicious, became hit or miss—sometimes too sweet, other times thin and bland. Now they've shut the doors and moved online, which honestly just feels like a letdown. Hot chocolate is something you want to enjoy in a nice, warm setting, not from a delivery box. It's sad to see a place that was once great lose its touch. If this is the direction they're heading in, it’s hard to get excited about what they’re offering now.

Another trip to north coast paused for lunch at this great place.Lunch was fine and the Guinness top notch. Must try and get to one of the many gigs some evening.

Good selection of food

Haven't been ere for a number f years and decided to go again for an evening meal. We weren't disappointed. Will call again in the future.
