The best restaurants serving British food in Northern Ireland

We had hesitated over whether to go to the Tea Room for food after seeing negative reviews, but are so glad we went. Arrived at 12 noon at start of lunch menu. Family meal- 2 kids and 2 adults. Food was delicious, served really quickly and presented really well. Goujons were so fresh and the club sandwich was so tasty. We had a lovely meal, in beautiful surroundings, and were ready to enjoy the rest of our day. Will definitely be back!

Had a burger and chips in the bar/restaurant and it was delicious. I'd especially like to emphasize how high quality the meat in the burger tasted. It tasted far above your average burger. Staff were polite and helpful. Dessert was an Oreo sundae and it was fantastic. It had crushed Oreos with the ice cream. Only a discrete complaint; it was quite noisy but there's not much the staff can do to be fair. Good price too. Recommend it for sure.

This Review relates to the Portstewart location only - can’t find a separate listing for it on TA Experience as follows: Entered - smoky/ poor ventilation - coming from kitchen area Noisy - lots of noise (plates etc) from open kitchen area competing with the music and people trying to talk over both Cold (arrived 9:30 am - would have expected to be warmer by then) Expensive - but then most things on North Coast are Scones - limited variety. Not fresh. Covered in a sugar glaze. Excuses - sorry we have run out of jam. Went back to kitchen area to ask if had any marmalade instead? No. ‘But you are serving scones and toast’? Response - It’s very busy this time of year. My response - that’s why you plan for it. It should have been a single star. But it’s Christmas

I love visiting the Cromore with family and friends. The service and food at this family run restaurant can only be termed excellent and if any problems are dealt with promptly.

Good food, quick and frienly service and answer for any quistion is "no problem" very nice ... to recommend is to taste their whisky's also 👍🏻👍🏻

Had a great breakfast here. Ulster fry and a sausage egg bap. The service is friendly and efficient. Great pot of tea for 2. Cost £18 so great value too.

Great hotel, handy location, reasonable price, friendly staff, comfortable bed, super breakfast, we couldn’t ask for anything more!

Food and service was ok but offer no substitutes on meals where the party had allergies. Still served the meal with items that had been requested to be taken off due to allergy. A waste of food and bad experience.

Great lay out with plenty of plants and gifts, staff helpful and friendly. Cafe on site but not tried , flat surfaces so good for wheelchairs.

We had dinner here while we were in the Derry area. The service was good, and our meal was promptly served after ordering.

We went for a large family occasion Sunday lunch. The food was delicious and the staff were really helpful and looked after us well. Everyone commented on how good the food was. Lovely view too. Thanks for all, we'll be back.

Called today with my mum .The girl was so nice bringing us to a lovely table near the outside garden view. Her name I discovered is Jenni , extremely professional and very well presented . We loved her outgoing personality and my mum commented how great she was she even took our photo for me !!. The other girls on were also lovely !! The food was delicious , the dessert and coffees very enjoyable . The decor is fantastic 👌 will be back 😀

Food is flavourless, got the pasta, rock hard absolutely no flavour, couscous flavourless and dry. Wont be back.

I’m not loca to ards my granny and father were both from ards so would be over quite regularly throughout the years and caffolas of chad been alway the place we would go weather for ice cream or a chippy “sit in”. I visited there a year or two ago and didn’t have a great experience. So I hadn’t been back for a while. I was In the town seeing family this week and thought we would stop in and give it another go. I have to say it was extremely excellent service all the staff were so helpful and friendly great man in a white top came with our menus his service was second to none had a chat pointed out some things on the menu “we were just there for good old chippy” what a beautiful place to be still going and everyone one of those staff members where amazing I wanted to come on here to say thank you for an amazing day. 5 stars all wound.
