Family of 5 ate dinner here. Food was decent, not great except for maybe the Sea Bass which was really good. But the service was very poor. We ordered drinks with the food and did not receive them until we were 3/4 thru our meal. We asked our server 3 times and even 2 other servers. I was getting ready to call over the manager when our drinks finally arrived. And the drinks included tap water. So basically we ate 3/4 of our meal without and drinks. Very frustrating. The other complaint was it took a long time to get our bill. Other patrons were lining up at the bar asking if they could pay there. So that is what I did. And got out of there.I would not recommend.

The restaurant really lets the bar part of this establishment down.The bar is great and has character and the Guinness is great but the restaurant is another story!The food was extremely average considering the waiting times, we werenât the only table that this was happening to, there were a number of tables around us that were getting frustrated. We eventually got our starter and finished this and waited another 30 mins and no member of the waiting staff came near us. I had to go and get someone to clear our table & get our mains which as previously mentioned were hardly worth the wait.I know this is a well known tourist area and it can be busy at times but there is no excuse for shabby service, the waiting staff really didnât give a hoot they were just going through the motions. Definitely will return to the bar but wonât be eating here again.

Iâve been going to Portrush for many years and usually headed down to the usual venues at the harbour, which are also great. I canât believe that I havenât visited this bar before as it is a great venue. Which door to get in can be a bit confusing but once in itâs a great cosy bar with great friendly service and a limited but delicious food menu (mostly burgers). Great Guinness and good variety of other beers and spirits. Looking forward to my next visit.

I took my wife out for dinner and arrived at the Village Tavern in Articlave. We found the Tavern to be very tastefully decorated with stained glass windows which we were told it was to blend in with the churches either side. The Tavern was very spacious when sitting at your table. The food was very tasteful and well portioned. The staff was very helpful and very courteous.

My wife and I visited the bar in Shenanigans to sample the cocktails. We were greeted on arrival by Ashley who is the new manager there. The service we received was excellent and the cocktails were expertly created and tasted fantastic. Although our visit was relatively short, we will certainly return.

Visited only because the sign outside daid "Under new management" and because we had a card giving 2 For 1.We were still disappointed. Food was ok but the place was dark and uninviting. Entrance is past the smokers congregated outside and then past the open-door toilet.First and last visit for us.

Serve traditional pub food to a high standard. Where possible we source our produce locally and cook all dishes to order.

Visited here a few months ago and it was disappointing. Now under new management and itâs a massive improvement. Sunday dinner for 8 people of the highest quality. Very good portion sizes at a fair price. Service was on point! Looking forward to our next visit!!!

Got off the train at castlerock and a few steps from that was the rock. Great food here and all the staff very friendly. Good value too , 3 courses for the price of your main. Every course was just amazing I could mot fault it. Then back on the train which comes every hour. What's not to like about it.. I will get back here again.
