The best restaurants in The Diamond Derry Western NI

I had heard of the Cottage Coffee shop and their wonderful scones previously so this was high on my list of places to visit in Derry. It lived up to my expectations. The scones are the very best i have ever tried. Four different kinds to choose from. We enjoyed it so much that on on first day here we went for morning coffee and scones and returned for our afternoon coffee. Do not miss this gem in the Craft Village. Staff are all lovely and with great customer service but i have to say that this was my favourite place in Derry! The amount of people at the entrance looking for a table is evidence enough that it is great.

Esta es una pequeña panadería fantástica que vende deliciosos pasteles, envolturas, sándwiches y panecillos calientes dentro de la Ciudad Amurallada. Los precios son realmente buenos (una taza de té por 80 p, por ejemplo) y la comida deliciosa. Excelente servicio amigable. Visitamos aquí tres veces en dos días porque era tan bueno y conveniente, y como está ubicado justo al lado del Diamond, hay muchos lugares cerca para sentarse.

Out for for a walk and found this lovely diner on a weekend away from Galway. Fabulous breakfast served up at a reasonable price from very friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Returned to Joe Jackson's for another ice cream. Service was just as good as before. Price decent. Nice seating round the back too.

Travelling from Canada we landed in Derry and were very hungry . Found the Broody Hen and had ourselves some lunch . It did not disappoint ! The portions were very generous , the servers attentive and loved the ambience. We liked it so much went back for the roast dinner ! Noornie was an absolute delight to speak with and we hope to be back and see her again .

From the outside this bar doesn’t look too promising, but we were pleased we ventured inside. It has a stylish and well decorated interior. We visited twice during our visit to Derry for a pre-dinner drink. The prosecco was good value at £6 for a 20cl bottle. The staff were very attentive and professional.

Came in for dinner with some friends. As always the food and service was top quality. Had the pork shoulder bao bun to start and for the main I had Satay chicken with rice. Not my first time in Mekong as always it delivers top class food full of flavor!

Absolutely wonderful birthday meal - we went here for a special occasion and it did not disappoint. The December set menu was lovely, with prompt friendly service and incredible flavours delivered at every course. The brioche tear and share, Chateaubriand beef and Guinness tart were delicious! We would heartily recommend for a special treat.

Can not rate Bishops gate higher enough excellent staff great breakfast even better dinner

I want to commend a bartender, Patrick, for his excellent customer service. He’s a credit to the pub and made us feel so welcome. He poured a literally perfect pint and made the already relaxing atmosphere feel so warm and inviting to all of the patrons. Thank you, Patrick! Wonderful jazz music, too.

Excellent service and food! I recommend!

Can't believe how the quality of food and location has dropped. Temperature in location cold. Food uninspiring. Wouldn't recommend to anyone.

A party for eight was given a fixed menu on a Saturday night but the charge was forty pounds per person which seemed steep for Derry. I live in London and a meal in an Arabic restaurant for two cost thirty two pounds a fortnight ago The food was fantastic and the service was good . If we had been able to choose the a la carte menu this would be four or five stars . Please give people a choice.

I've called here a few times recently. Only for pints of Guinness, both at quiet times. The staff have been attentive and friendly both times. The pints were great.
