The best restaurants serving Irish food in Coleraine North Eastern NI

We always go to Shanty when we’re in town and without a doubt my favourite restaurant in Portrush.

Second visit to this restaurant this summer, and will be back again, hopefully. First time I visited I had the Roast Hake which was as good a dish as any top restaurant I’ve been to…and way less expensive! My second visit tonight I had the Louisiana Chicken which was so good and again, the chef’s on top of his game. We were a table of six, and the staff were great, welcoming and the food came to the table all together. As a BYOB they need to charge a higher corkage. Meals are way too cheap, and a 10% increase in menu prices would not be out of line.

Great hotel in a small town. Building is across the coastline, close to the cliff view. Rooms were great and bathroom large and modern. We had dinner and breakfast - service was excellent - very pleasant staff. Loved it.

Dreadful service and the pizzas were stone cold waited a while and they wouldn’t hand over the first ready pizza I don’t recommend this dominoes I suggest you go to somewhere else. Not happy with staff either as they were rude and I’m not coming back to this one.

Food OK. £4 for a milkshake that's not great. I can see why the large cue is for McDonald's beside it.The place is baltic freezing 🥶 too

It's been a while since we had been to Strawberry Fayre, it didn't disappoint on our return, we really enjoyed our lunch, pumpkin & bacon soup served with wheaten bread, both delicious followed by toffee apple crumble with custard again delicious, portions were generous too,won't leave it as long to our next visit, really worth a visit .

Called in to place an order to take away. Sat for 40 minutes waiting during which time i watched the girl at the till swinging her ponytail over food, scratching her scalp and nose with her oversized long nail extensions, and then proceed to butter scones without washing her hands or wear gloves. Wiped her hands on her jeans and carried on. Came and told me then after 40 min, that my order hadnt gone through to the kitchen, and when i said to forget it and asked for a refund, she was very rude. Accused me of being rude because i said i hadn't time to wait and said it wasn't her fault i hadn't received my order. Then didn't know how to issue a card refund, and kept me waiting a further 15 minutes while she disappeared into the back of the shop. Awful experience from someone not capable of dealing with customer issues, she was totally unsupported by the manager who stayed in the back. Food handling hygiene needs looked at. Really disappointed as I've used this lovely café before, but on this occasion the service and hygiene was not good at all.

Had a lovely meal at this restaurant . The staff where very attentive and the food was delicious we had a bit of a wait but it was well worth it.

Very suitable menu for a seaside restaurant which is well frequented throughout the year, and especially at busy holiday periods. Good selection of wines, beers and cocktails. Friendly staff who are eager to please. Relaxed atmosphere. What's not to like...
