The best restaurants serving British food in Northern Ireland

Brilliant in clever way. A real must if you are in or near Bangor.

My Newtownards friend took me there. Great place, nice waitstaff and great food. Had the Christmas lunch and it was more than i can eat. Tasted GREAT!!! Nice draft beer also. All and all it was a GREAT visit and will come back again before leaving in February.

This is the best kept secret on the North Coast. A warm welcome, friendly and professional staff, down to earth hospitality, a roaring fire, the best mussels about, and a large selection of freshly mixed cocktails, all served with good tunes to keep you company.

Tazas muy frías y para cuando viertas tu té está frío. El mal servicio tuvo que volver al mostrador a buscar leche. Lugar muy frío para sentarse en no cómodo.

We were at Brewers Fayre for a Boxing Day meal. I have to say the whole experience was fantastic. All the staff were amazing but in particular, Lauren and Dave and Jake the chef! The food was outstanding. A thoroughly enjoyable day!

Watch out for the massive service charge on your bill. This is not America. They should consider charging less for a larger booking. I know of two places in the city centre that actually give a complimentary drink to each person in large groups as a small gesture. Do not expect to receive such good Irish hospitality in this spot. Slightly less people could go than we originally planned to our mid-week lunch. The staff were inflexible. They wanted our group to pay for the meals of the two people that could not make it for genuine reasons. Very robotic short sighted approach. The food is very average. There are lots of better options. Do not recommend.

Excellent customer service from young but very friendly staff. We underestimated time before our coach trip back to Belfast was due to depart, so the lovely staff wrapped up cakes and drinks to go which was very much appreciated.

We had a selection of food between us, rotisserie chicken, Chipotle wings, Buffalo chicken burgers and fries, and all of it was cooked to order and lovely, it wasn't our first visit but we always go when we're in Belfast and it's highly recommended The only slight criticism is that the beer selection is lacking (upstairs in the restaurant) and if you're a first time visitor Yardbird isn't the easiest place to find in the Dirty Onion complex for a first time visitor, but they are minor criticisms and don't detract from the food at all.

Este es un gran bar con un personal amable y una gran ubicación. El bar es precioso y hay música en vivo. Fuimos a Brennan's dos veces mientras estaba en Belfast y disfrutamos.

Have previously attended and had great food so it's fair to say I was looking forward to it. On arrival the restaurant was pretty empty, apart from 2 tables of approximately 6 people. We placed our order and waited for our food. We continued to wait, and wait, and wait.... About 4 or 5 tables had guests arrive for dinner after we had placed our order. It soon became obviously that they were being served their food before us. No member of staff approached us to apogise for the delay. After 45 minutes we asked how long our food would be? We received an apology and 10 minutes later our food arrived. When it did the mash, veg, and meat were cold, yet the roasties were hot. There's nothing worse than cold food! We advised the staff who apologised and took our food away. It came back after a good 10 minutes, exactly as it had been given to them. It was clear it had been dinged in the microwave. Now considering this, you would have expected your food back in a few minutes, not 10. On starting to eat it, parts of it were warm and other parts not warm at all, which is strange in itself. Perhaps it had been microwaved and left sitting again before being served to us. We did advise the staff of this. However, we were so hungry that we ate what we could and took the rest home for the dog. Really disappointing to say the least.

Always a treat to visit McKee's farm shop and restaurant. When you arrive the menu is at the entrance to the restaurant. You now need to put your order in and pay before sitting. This makes service extremely efficient as the food came out really quickly and was delicious as always. The staff are amazing, really friendly and welcoming. The farm shop is one of the best I have been in. All local produce and so fresh. The apple and cinnamon luxury scones are highly recommended.

We knew the restaurant was closed but when we arrived the bar was also closed We were going to meet family but nowhere to go. Very disappointing and we stay frequently in the hotel. Very disappointing and puts me off going again. Felt let down got an email saying restaurant was closed but no mention of the bar being closed.

Could be the best bacon cheeseburger I've ever had.

We are long term visitors to the cafe at Glenarm Castle. We have always liked the food and surroundings. So we worried at what might happened when we discovered it had closed, and would be taken over. But we still looked forward to visiting again, which we did on Sunday. It was very disappointing. We always liked the ciabattas and toasties, of which there was always a big selection. So you can imagine how disappointed we were when we found that this section was gone!! It turned out that they did have some toasties, but they weren’t on display. So you had no idea what you were getting, and soon we saw why – they were utterly pathetic. Instead of ciabattas etc, sliced pan loaf! No butter as far as we could tell, so very dry. But the worst was the filling – in that there wasn’t any. Three quarters of the inside of the sandwiches was empty space, with a wee clump of chicken and stuff in the very middle, so that it looked like it was well filled when you cut them across! We’re old enough to remember when British Rail used to do this, and the “BR Sandwich” became a national joke. Whoever is running this place now shouldn't be, simple as that. Be a long time before you see us again!!

Terrible place. Doormen absolutely horrible to deal with. I won’t go in to my experience but this place should be shut down immediately. Avoid this place for your own good.
