The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Larne North Eastern NI

Friendly staff reasonably priced

I admit I haven't been this way for some time, but I first came across this shop when I first visited Islandmagee back in 1990. It was something of a novelty to see such a large, well-stocked shop in such a remote location. I especially remember there being posters, flags and calendars to commemorate the 300th anniversary of the Battle of the Boyne! Not much has changed since then as far as I can see. I was able to buy some snacks as I was about to take a walk all the way up to Brown's Bay. It's a lovely shop set in a lovely location!

Best coffee in the town. Friendly staff and reasonably priced.

Food and service is so lovely the portions of the food are just the right amount would definitely recommend if you are looking a fantastic meal

The Rinka reminds me of my youth. It feels like an old fashioned ice cream shop with cafe and has the advantage of being a shop with all the supplies you would need as well as a sizeable toy section. Visiting with kids meant this...

We recently visited Taste Coffee and Restaurant in Larne, and it was such a fantastic experience that we completely forgot to take pictures! Thankfully, I found some on their Facebook page, but they hardly do justice to how great this place is. The food was incredible, with so many delicious options to choose from. Everything we tried was bursting with flavor, and the chips and shakes were an absolute must-try! The service was super fast, and the staff couldn’t have been more friendly. A special shoutout to Joanne, who was absolutely lovely and made us feel so welcome. If you’re in Larne and looking for the best cafe in town, Taste is a must-visit. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and can’t wait to come back!

Good local bar with great staff, always guaranteed a laugh. Restaurant is fantastic, caters for all and very reasonably priced for the quality of food provided. A massive selection of spirits and draught beer available too.

Carriages Bistro, Larne 4th August 2024 There are a number of conflicting reviews about this place. When we ate there, the previously-mentioned problems were very much in evidence. The service was lackadaisical, with waitresses too busy exchanging local gossip to pay attention to guests. At the end of our meal, I had to stand up and find a waitress in order to pay my bill. (We’d finished our meal 10 minutes earlier). The food: I had Scampi and “creamed potato”. Creamed potatoes were mentioned before in this review site. Mine were barely warm, and lumpy. I have known how to make creamed potatoes since I was 10 years old. It’s hard to believe that anyone on the island of Ireland does not know how to prepare this simple potato dish. I asked for carrots and peas as my vegetables. The carrots were at room temperature. The peas were tinned processed peas – almost unheard of in this day and age. They reminded me of school lunches in the ‘60s. I must say, however, that my scampi was delicious. I’ve seen some good and bad reviews of this place – an equal balance between hit and miss. Our night was a miss. Maybe a manager or a team leader was missing, or (and) maybe a head chef was missing. Poor service; poor food standard.

Best sausage roll on the Island of Ireland.

A great selection of traybakes a a good cup of tea. The staff are great as well. It's a limited seating café so later afternoon was easier to get a seat than peak lunchtime. I wish I had taken a pic of my cookie pie with candy cane on top. So sweet, I couldn't finish it. Rare for me..

Would have given it more of a rating only we had not booked and were turned away even thought it was more than half empty. It was early in the morning. Have not been back since.

The bar lounge felt dated and there were many young adolescent drinking. To make matters worse the live singer was too loud and drowned out our dining. The food itself was undercooked and nothing special. On leaving we were greeted to a fight in the car park between two young men one who was clearly drunk. I could not recommend unless the management get proper professional staff and bouncers in there.

I really liked their apple pie, had a pot of tea with it. Islandmagee is well worth exploring, from the stone dolmen to the beach at Brown's Bay, to Portmuck Harbour or the views north of the glens. Having a café is vital for tourists who need a pit-stop. Locals love it, too, the play park outside is very popular. Lots inside, a museum, shop, the café, toilets, and a big hall for events.

Staffing problem is big here food takes forever to come out ! If you’re in a hurry don’t go here as waiting time is ridiculous.

Stopped by as passing through Larne and wanted a coffee and a light vegan snack. Many other cafes in this area only offer typical fried or greasy spoon type offerings but was delighted to find two vegan options here! Owner Andy, was really friendly and chatted to me too and let me park in the business space. 🚗 Also gave me great tourist advice 🙏 I was disappointed to see Seven empty when I visited on a Tuesday lunch... This needn't have be the case though as they do lovely vegan options and I can really recommend the Butternut squash curry which they do kindly did with a side of veg! Not overpowering or oily at all and would return for this! Good job 👩‍🍳 Can confirm other comments however, that it needs a bit of a refurb and attention to small details like worn papers/notices on the bar/menu, broken flusher and standard of repair, and maybe some better vegetable side variety. Please Consider posting the menu outside too or on the board, and list on Google Maps as searching in the area for somewhere to go for lunch doesn't show Seven 🙁. I'd literally not have seen this if I wasn't walking by which is a shame. Minor point, I found the coffee a little bland so something for improvement; maybe use as a basis for marketing if using a local or known roaster perhaps? More promotion on the Insta even. Great little place, guys and delicious healthy, vegan 🌿food. Just needs some visibility! Would recommend overall.
