The best restaurants in Strand Derry Western NI

THE best coffee in Derry!! I actually asked if they have the best coffee and the answer was if you don’t like it - come back and we’ll prove it!!! What a fun place!!!

We went for a weekend away to the city & were so well received by Liam, Marty & the rest of the staff of Odies. Class service, got a free taster of their own craft beer & a complimentary shot as well. Food was really good - the chef even shared a secret recipe. They were all so personal & lovely, which made us realise this is why we missed going out for a meal so much. They did everything for us to be able to get a taxi etc. Supporting small & local always pays off! Definitely worth a visit!

Punto de craqueo para el desayuno. Un ambiente acogedor, asientos cómodos y posiblemente uno de los mejores lugares de Derry para sentarse. Vine aquí para desayunar y tomar un café después del gimnasio y nada mejoró mi día. . . ¡Sigan haciendo lo que ustedes están haciendo! ! (Gachas O panqueques son mi ir también)

Food is so tasty Have to queue but worth the wait Really well priced

Really delicious food with a gorgeous view of boats on the river. Great value, good customer service. Highly recommended.

The food was really good. Small plates were a little small for the price but the large plate was great. Service fast and attentive.

A must cant do a nite in derry without giveing it a call into.🫶

Fantastic cafe. Friendly staff and authentic coffee. Lovely scones and Bakewell tart

We booked a table for 3vand we're seated straight away , it has such a friendly atmosphere that you instantly relax , drinks ordered , I had a bottle of wine , a bit pricey at £25 , but it was a thank you night out , the others had cocktails and said they were delicious . Food served promptly and the smell and flavours were amazing . Staff were lively and I could listen to the owners Italian accent all night 😅 A pricey night out but we'll worth it for a treat

This is my favourite restaurant, the food is amazing and the staff are all very nice! My wife and I come to the Old Docks every year for our wedding anniversary. My Facebook profile picture has been a selfie of my wife and I outside the door of the restraunt for two years in a row. My only little niggle I have is that the restaurant can get a bit noisy. The music can be a wee bit loud and at Christmas they have a dancing Santa who hands out presents. This is lovely for people who are into this, but I prefer just to enjoy their good food and have conversation that I can hear. The Old Docks are very easy to book a table with. I have a child with special needs and the staff are always great, trying to put us out of the way because my child has sensory issues. During the normal seasonal dining the staff have gone out of their way to also turn the music down a little when I explained my child had special needs. It is great to see a restaurant showing such understanding. I don't expect this treatment or for other people to have to accommodate our family's special requirements, but I am very grateful when they try to help us. I can hardly wait until it's my birthday and I can tuck into their sweet, sticky, chilli prawns and steak served with bacon and cheese mash and an extra side of mushrooms that melt in the mouth! I totally recommend this restaurant, it has some of the best food in the city!

This looks lovely and has a nice vibe. The food however was disappointing. The full breakfast consisted of reheated, shrivelled meat. The pancakes were dry and cold and burnt. The coffee was decent but generally we were very disappointed, waste of money I’m afraid.

Lovely staff and good food would highly recommend

Group of us had dinner in Quaywest on a busy Saturday night. Got our table on time @8pm for a group of nine. Two minutes after we eere seated , server was hovering around table. Not a bad complaint necessarily,but waited nearly twenty five minutes on drinks order, had to ask several times to see where they were. Food was good . However asked for extra Marie Rose sauce when starter was sever and was given a dirty look and it never arrived.

Doorman was very nice explaining there’s a quiet area and a loud area. Both places are lovely. They also have a garden. I didn’t get to try the food but will have to check in for next time
