The food looked so good we all had to take pics before digging in! Perfect for a casual catch-up with friends.

Had the seafood chowder and chicken &amp; bacon risotto. The chowder was rich, perfect for a chilly evening. Paired it with a glass of oaky Chardonnay &ndash; the wine cut through the creaminess nicely. Service was efficient, didn&rsquo;t hover. A solid spot for a casual dinner.

Loved the owners popping by for a quick chat - it made the place feel so welcoming. A nice touch that really added to the vibe!

The haddock was so good! Lightly smoked, and that curried rice with cream sauce was a total surprise. Perfect for a relaxed dinner with friends, we just kept talking about how tasty it was.

The staff were so friendly and professional, which really made our girls&#39; night out feel special. We had a good laugh with them and they didn&#39;t rush us at all. The atmosphere was nice for a long catch-up. Menu had loads to choose from too!

The chicken lababdar was packed with flavour. Good portion too. The wine list had some interesting options that paired nicely with the richness of the curry. A solid choice.

Early bird menu was great value. Portions were massive, couldn&#39;t finish my fish and chips. Staff packed it up for me, no fuss. Good for a hearty meal.

The roast duck was lovely, and the staff were so friendly. The booths are comfortable, which makes a big difference.

The portions are decent. I had the fish and chips, the batter was crisp but the chips were a bit too soft for my liking. Good amount of food though.

The staff here are so lovely. They were really attentive without being overbearing, and it made the whole meal feel so relaxed. A nice change from places where you feel rushed.

Estelle was our server, really nice and checked on us just enough. Made the evening feel relaxed. Good service can make a difference.

The seafood chowder was the star for me. Really rich and full of flavour, probably one of the best I&#39;ve tried. The fish and chips were good too, a decent portion.

Stayed a few nights. Rooms are spacious, bathrooms nice. The breakfast bacon was really good. Quick and easy stay, no fuss.

Our daughter was right about this place. The staff were really helpful picking out a beer for us. Food was pretty good too.

Looks rough outside but it&#39;s lovely inside. Staff are great, food&#39;s fab. Had the curry (fish and chicken) &ndash; nice little kick, not too hot. Portions were huge, best garlic potatoes in Derry.

Been here a few times. The live musician is a nice touch, takes requests and all. Makes it feel like a proper Italian spot, not just another restaurant. Gets a bit loud sometimes, but that&#39;s part of the charm.

That saffron naan was the star of the show for me. So soft and buttery, with this lovely floral hint from the saffron. I could&#39;ve easily just had a plate of those!

Sarah was lovely, really knew her beers and gave us some solid tips for the area. The place itself has a nice, relaxed vibe, perfect for a casual pint after a walk along the coast.

A solid neighbourhood spot. The pizzas are enormous, we couldn&#39;t finish ours! Good, quick service and a nice buzzy vibe with the low lighting. Menu had loads to choose from.

Been coming here for years, and the steak is always spot on. Tender, cooked just right. The crispy onions on top are a nice touch.

Lovely spot for a chilled coffee. The kids were happy with the little play area and mini golf, so we could actually finish our drinks! The beachy decor is cute.

Tried the early bird menu. The salt and chili chicken starter had a proper kick to it. But the sticky toffee pudding with clotted cream? Honestly, the best I&#39;ve ever had.

Grabbed a takeaway from here again. Their lamb kebab is the one I keep coming back for - so juicy and the flatbread is always fresh. Good selection too.

Lovely coffee and scones here. The staff are so welcoming, which makes a real difference. I had a quiet corner table, perfect for just sitting and relaxing. A very comfortable spot.

No reservation but they squeezed us in on a Friday evening. The pulled beef pasta with garlic cream sauce was a huge portion, really generous. Could easily have shared one between two.

Ordered a full vegetarian takeaway from here. The food was genuinely lovely, and I really appreciated that they accept card payments. Makes things so much easier.

The Derry Grill Irish breakfast is the best I&#39;ve had. The black pudding is properly seasoned and the sausages are spot on.
