The best restaurants serving Default food in Newbuildings Cookstown Southern NI

Most enjoyable late lunch in a very unexpected place - Portuguese food served by friendly attentive staff. We asked for dish recommendations and duck rice (arroz de pato) and Francesinha were the offering. We were advised that they would take about 15 mins to prepare and they were well worth the wait. Both were delicious - the Francesinha is a traditional sandwich of steak, ham, chipolata and linguiça covered in melted cheese with a tomato and beer sauce served with tomato and beer sauce and a bowl of chips. It was delicious and filling - only for the very hungry carnivore! Decor is cafe style. Good coffee!

It's great to see The Granary reopened. My beautiful young bride and I had breakfast together today. I had smashed avacado on sourdough toast with poached eggs and my wife had French toast with the most fabulous back bacon I have ever seen (lean, thick & large cut. Both dishes were perfect as was the service.

Great place with good people. Wish the place was big to accommodate a lot of people

After numerous attempts to call in to McLaughlins, I eventually managed to stop in Cookstown today and treat myself to coffee and a bun. Great service, brilliant friendly staff, lovely atmosphere and above all gorgeous coffee.

Great night at The Thatch. Very welcoming environment and staff take good care of you. Christine is excellent!

Does anyone know when this place will reopen? And will the owner finally invest in a card payment terminal, so we don’t have to rely on cash only? The cash-only thing feels a bit too greedy at this point. Edit: Only 2 stars because this place has been closed for too long, leaving Cookstown without enough competition for kebab spots. Since then, places like The Pizza Box even raised their prices just two weeks ago. We really need this place back to keep things fair and affordable!

Simply the best. Food is always top notch. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff. Always service with a smile. Highly recommended.

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.

What can I say - top notch, tasty as always, speedy service

Excellent place for something to eat

Had a wonderful time here. First time in cookstown and the bouncers were so welcoming showing us around the bar. Alastair, one of the bouncers made an amazing effort in making us feel welcomed and had great conversations. The cocktails were also amazing and the decor and atmosphere was brilliant

Wednesday 27th December. Order was placed and waiting over 1hr. Other people have been waiting 1½hrs. I asked could i cancel my order if the pizza wasn't in the oven the staff went to the kitchen and never came back out an i waited a further 10mins and left. 1hr 10mins wasted!!! The lack of communication and customer service is completely unacceptable. It's clear that the staff have no respect for their customers' time and have no problem leaving them hanging for an hour with no update or apology. I cannot believe the sheer audacity of this establishment to treat their paying customers so poorly. Absolutely disgraceful. Save your time and money and go elsewhere.

We come here every single time we to cookstown to visit family. Food is amazing and the service is 11/10.

Start with vegetables soup which was delicious bowl could be bigger and the buffet had a wide range a fresh food and the deserts section had a lot of different options a great place to vist will definitely be back

Hot buffet food was delicious, the atmosphere was nice, the staff were good. Desert choices very limited and they charge £2.50 for a coke which had no fizz so I presume it was poured from a bottle. Could easily be 5 stars by introducing a few more desserts and serving correct beverages
