The best restaurants serving British food in Southern NI

Can't believe some reviews, someone said I've had s few meals out of here ,yet only leave a 2 star review when their batterd sausage was a bit greasy, and not all the other times the food was perfect, Karen's are everywhere! From my experience food was exceptional, from friendly staff,to cleanliness of the place, plus quite a que was forming, which is always a good sign.

I worked in Armagh 25 years ago and Digbys was the place to go back then. I'm glad to say it's still the place to.Food staff and ambience are excellent. Without doubt the best tasting steak I've had in a long time.The prices are also very reasonable.Keep up the good work.

We regularly meet up in the restaurant for a Business Breakfast. Food is superb, staff are all well trained and polite. I've been visiting for the past eighteen months and have never been dissapointed. They even will pla e your beans in a ramekin if asked. Excellent.

If you want to relive the heyday of high teas, you should book one at the Royal Hotel, Cookstown. Our party of 7 was treated to an old-style dining experience, in bright and tastefully decorated surroundings, thanks to our excellent waitress. Roslyn's attention to detail and to our dining needs were exceptional. We had what seemed to be three bottomless tea pots on the go; delicious sandwich fingers with an assortment of tasty savoury fillings; scones, jam and cream; muffins and a variety of exquisite slices all placed on three towering cake plates - a veritable cornucopia. At regular intervals Roslyn and her staff checked if we needed refills, that we were comfortable, provided boxes for us to take home excess goodies, and even demonstrated her excellent skills as a photographer, ably capturing our reunion of Northern Irish and Australian cousins for posterity. At all times Roslyn was professional, unobtrusive, polite, friendly, and caring - reminding us of days gone by when dining out was an absolute pleasure thanks to excellent cuisine served by staff who provided outstanding and friendly service.

Spoke to a lovely server, she goes by the name of klara, wonderful girl. Made my day and was extremely helpful. Would go again just for her

I found this beautiful building on Main Street Clogher. Inside is a lovely clean, quiet coffee shop with a lot more potential. Christian books displayed in the entrance with a few H&M baby clothes..I was disturbed by the ‘in your face’ books laid out everywhere for sale. Leaflets displayed on entering the disabled toilet alongside the hand sanitiser. No paper towels and the dryer not functioning though. I understand this venue is used for other purposes. I found the display very offensive and discriminatory. It is 2023 and there are people from other religions and none travelling through the Clogher Valley. I have total respect for Christianity but this went too far. Local open minded resident.

Hi there, if you are ever passing The Coffee Cart, between Portadown & Armagh, stop and sample their food, from a simple scone to a lunch/tea it is the best value that I have come across in all my coffee stops, (& there have been many) Scones are delightful and the coffee served in a good sized china mug Staff are delightful and plenty of parking available It's a must if your in the area

Good location, nice bright and airy. Staff are helpful and the food is good. Breakfasts are good value and tasty. Only thing is the windows on side are very open, people sat in their cars can watch you eat every mouthful. Maybe some frosting on the lower windows may help?

Lovely freshly cooked breakfasts , using top notch ingredients. Friendly staff made this a very nice place to be. Recommended

The golf club was a great place to go for a spot of Sunday dinner. It was booked only an hour before heading and it was a fantastic meal out. The only let down was 3/4 through our meal it got very busy and we were lost in the crowd for service at times but a somewhat reasonable amount given the surge. Apart for this, this meal out would have got full marks, but the primary reason for going - the meals were great and accommodating for our kids also. I got the carvery and the chef really took care of how it was even presented. Top marks for this - something not usually seen at other local carveries.

The food was amazing the portions were very generous also the free desserts on Thursdays went down a treat by all, there were 12 of us & everyone was really impressed by standard of food, shout out to the waitresses they were amazing nothing a bother to them they both were very pleasant & helpful.

Service was the worst at our stay in the hotel, staff were asked twice on drink order took 45 minutes also our friend found a hair in her chicken curry which puts a question of the hygiene rate in the kitchen, also staff didn’t know anything about the menu and staff weren’t informed on what was on the menu. The food we had was lovely and the atmosphere was perfectly fine. Credits to the lady with the ginger hair she done everything we had asked her and knew her job role very well The hair in the food problem was resolved with a discount much appreciated but still believe regulations need to be made.

I dare people to find a better restaurant whether it's a quiet meal for 2 or a party.the food and portions are great and the price is fair and only warning I would say is on certain days and times it can be very busy.

Fantastic places to eat tasty food and Fantastic staff

Bit strange seeing the Christmas decorations up in October! We were here in a large group and were catered for very well in the main. Food was excellent and staff very pleasant. Only let down was trying to attract their attention to replenish beverages.
