The best restaurants serving Irish food in South Eastern NI

We had a great breakfast at The Dinner Bell Bistro. The food was fabulous and plentiful. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff was outstanding. The outside garden was a hidden gem. If the weather is warm, be sure to eat outside.

This cafe is great for breakfast and coffee/ tea. Plenty on the plate and very friendly staff. And very reasonable prices. Well worth a visit

I recommend the pancake stack it is first class you should go and try it out sometime and the staff are so friendly and helpful and kind and good crack

Lovely cafe, friendly staff and spotless clean! The tray bakes and cakes etc look absolutely amazing! Highly recommended!

Had a lovely lunch with friends. Staff very helpful - nothing was too much trouble and they listened to our comments and suggestions. Food very good and freshly cooked.

Great food home cooked by Lee (Li?) who in good N.Irish fashion can talk the hind leg off a donkey. Local produce used esp. from McConville's family butchers just across the road. 5*recommend! Mick and Karen Bolton Tandragee.

A great lunch spot in Ballynahinch. I've tried their sandwiches, bagels, soup and toasties so far for lunch and all have been lovely. Friendly service always. It's an honesty café too.

Absolutely awesome 🤩 we had a few small plates to get a good feel for the variety of the menu and WOW! My personal fav was chicken parfait but every single mouthful was heaven. I hope this restaurant gets awarded a Michelin star it would be well deserved ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ will defo be back HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Fantastic food and wonderful friendly service. I had the salted chilli chicken and bacon and cheese fries very tasty. My friend had the burger and it was delicious as well. Highly recommended.

I had the pleasure of dining at Origin 101 for a 50th wedding anniversary celebration. The ambience was absolutely charming, the food superb, the waitstaff very professional and Kelsey, the proprietor very welcome and accommodating. If only I lived in Moira, I would return often. As it was, I asked her to consider opening a second location in Connecticut. One can only hope.

Cute cosy and intimate. The feel of a family business . Homemade scones biscuits and bakes are simply devine . One can't but help falling on love with this little cafe . staff are happy helpful and hospitable . I felt valued and welcome . A Gem in Lisburn .

I love this restaurant , one of my favorite places to eat. Went for dinner on Saturday afternoon. Using crutches after surgery and Zara was very helpful.. dinner was very good as usual. I definitely have to say Zara went above and beyond.. Definitely recommend here for your meal.

Lovely wee meal last night, really enjoyed it and the staff could not have been more helpful. Will be back again for sure.

Food is bad got a chicken burger the batter was a hard as the road and the chicken very dry not good at all would not recommend

We went to Underground Dining a few weeks ago for the first time, and were very impressed. Service was exceptional and food was absolutely amazing. Imaginative, fresh flavoured and totally delicious! And not expensive. Highly recommend.
