The best restaurants in Magilligan Limavady Western NI

Love this place tucked away behind Downhill forest. Does the best coffee and also so many lovely treats. The atmosphere is serene and to top it off you can sit out the back surrounded by peacocks. I usually attend with my partner but would also bring my nieces as they love feeding the peacocks and the drinking yummy hot chocolates. Dan, Rebekah and the rest of the team always welcome us with the biggest smiles. Definitely a must go for tourists (&locals) visiting the North Coast - no other place like it. oh and it’s also dog friendly :)

What can I say brilliant meal good friendly staff toilets bar etc very clean have payed a lot more for a lot less else were. Same to keep going back to this bar

Visited today for daughter in laws birthday. Very disappointed. We have eaten here regularly for years on numerous occasions and have always had lovely experience. Food has always been great and staff always lovely. But on last couple of visits have found service poor, staff too busy and food not up to usual standard. Was hoping this was just a blip and decided to give it another go today. Unfortunately today was so so disappointing. Our food was such a long time coming and when it did arrive it was not hot and quite greasy. Looked like it had been sitting out too long. So sad as the location is fabulous!!

Had the sweet chilli chicken pasta was sickeningly sweet and tasted like a sweet chilli mixture had just been dumped into the sauce. Didn’t taste nice at all however the turkey and ham was very good. Service could be better as our mains came out separately nearly 5-10 mins between some.

The food is good here but unfortunately that is all. The service is horrendous and really lets it down. Staff are ridiculously slow to clear tables and in particular to take orders. On several occasions we called in on a Sunday morning for breakfast and were met by a lengthy queue but when we got to the counter on time to place our order before 12 noon, waitress debated whether to plqce the order at 11:57 and then decided not to so we had to order from the lunch menu instead and we were told 12 was the cut off point for placing a breakfast order despite still being early. We called today at 11:47 to order breakfast and a different waitress told us that the breakfast menu was now finished because the kitchen was backed up and had finished at 11:45 today. Not good enough when we travelled a distance to get there on time. I politely informed her that we had been told 12 noon was the last order time to which she just said we could place an order from the lunch menu but she couldn’t do that until it was 12pm. (So we would have had to stand there and wait for another 15 mins. ) Clearly Waves struggle with handling orders. Due to poor service and inconsistencies, this place is not worth the visit. There are better options with better service that is more deserving of your customer elsewhere. Won’t be back!

Very expensive. Poor service. Very poor quality of food. Won't be back. Could not recommend. Severely over rated. There are many better restaurants locally.
