A hidden gem we have passed by many times. First visit as normally drive or bus by but heard some great reports recently and thoughts let's try. A warm ( plus actually warm inside) welcome at the door shown to a table near window great for watching the world go by. Reasonably priced bottle of chardonnay to start followed by a mix of food to check out the various amazing sounding dishes. We had crispy squid, deep fried brie, croquettes and amazing scallops all shared to taste. Definitely all freshly cooked to order! Followed by chicken parmesan, lamb pasta and my wife said best risotto she has had. Friendly polite and attentive staff. Definitely worth a try for dinner, lunch and think we heard brunch mentioned. Right on the Dundonald glider bus line so easy to find and travel to and from anywhere in the "Ballysnackamore" area. Good and enjoy!

Sunday roast done perfectly. Honestly I hated this place before I had the Sunday roast. I can honestly say I am obsessed now. They can’t cook pasta to save their lives but they know a good British roast! Portions are great and staff is lovely.
