The best restaurants in South Eastern NI

Sean the proprietor served a freshly cooked fry and a great craic. He’s was very welcoming with a joint interest in motorcycles. Clean & tidy cafe with good ingredients on the menus. I had the fry with no complaints

I would regularly come for my lunch to quails and have never been disappointed yet. The sandwiches Panini is wraps, Toasties quiche, et cetera are always extremely fresh and very well presented. I always enjoy getting the little side salads with my meal and I really enjoyed this service that I get off, so the staff are fantastic and I could never afford anything about them at all. I always enjoy my meals in quails and the coffee is always fantastic also with refills and it is always piping hot I always enjoy my time are quails and I will definitely be back. Ryan McCartney

A great lunch spot in Ballynahinch. I've tried their sandwiches, bagels, soup and toasties so far for lunch and all have been lovely. Friendly service always. It's an honesty café too.

Comer aquí todo el tiempo bastante sabrosa 😊 mejor salsa barbacoa alrededor. Sin duda vale la pena intentarlo, personal amable y educado.

Great food home cooked by Lee (Li?) who in good N.Irish fashion can talk the hind leg off a donkey. Local produce used esp. from McConville's family butchers just across the road. 5*recommend! Mick and Karen Bolton Tandragee.

Introduced to The Big Bite by my workplace. What a breakfast! Full roll or bap is my own preference. However the club sandwich is unbelievable. Won't find anywhere cheaper either.

Very friendly and efficient service. Food was lovely. Accommodated us last minute after another restaurant letting us down. Definitely worth it.

8am & hungary, so thought I'd get a bite in Tesco Cafe. Opening time, so quiet. Got served quickly. Service was polite & efficient, All Day Breakfast was perfect, really hot & fresh cooked. Would certainly call again. Thank you.

I've had two meals at the Wild Thyme Bar & Grill. I had a dinner, their roasted salmon with white wine mushroom sauce. The next morning I had a breakfast: 2 rashers of bacon, 2 Irish sausages, a poached egg, and a grilled tomato. This was during a 5-week Odyssey throughout the United Kingdom: England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, a trip memorable for excellent dining. The dinner here was the best seafood dinner I had in the UK. The breakfast was certainly one of the best I had anywhere in the UK. This is the hotel restaurant of the Bannville Hotel. Finding it tucked away is a bit tricky, but apparently not too serious a challenge. We were lucky to get a table for dinner. Haven't a clue why no one else has reviewed it, given how packed they are with diners. Were I ever to return to Ireland, I would go out of my way to return here. It's definitely vaut le voyage. Even if you're starting from Belfast, Derry or Dublin. p.s. Trip Advisor requires me to pick one: so I picked "Dinner" but the breakfast was just as great. I do not believe the restaurant has outdoor seating, and unfortunately I don't recall what pandemic-related policies they have. But I rate service, food and value all as outstanding. As far as cost, it seemed mid-range to me, not particularly expensive. Certainly less expensive than a dinner of this quality would be in the Vieux Carre of my New Orleans.

this is one of the best Indian carry out and sit ins in the country.....great food, pleasant staff and fine surroundings.....
