Had breakfast with friends on a Sunday morning. Beautiful freshly cooked food. The pancakes with bacon and maple syrup were freshly made. I chose the eggs benedict. Two poached eggs with bacon on a muffin and sauce. Friendly staff and comfortable surroundings. Will return.

This Cafe is a great place for breakfast. Everything is freshly cooked and unlike other Cafes in the area itâs properly cooked no under cooked eggs or bread here. The last time we went to the Pitstop the fry was inedible, and expensive, so Iâm glad we found Brambles. The only downside is it needs to move to larger premises.

We dropped one Thursday lunchtime and were seated immediately. Orders promptly taken, menu queries answered, local craft beer and wine poured. We had the fish sharing plate, and mussels and chips. Everything was piping hot and really fresh and tasty. They specalise in locally produced craft beers and use fresh local produce as much as possible. We lunch in here every few months and are never ever disappointed. We love it and I think you will too. Itâs a great place to relax and while away an hour or so over a leisurely lunch.

Birthday lunch with the sisters. We were positioned at a large table towards the back to accommodate us all comfortably. The menu was not extensive but reasonable as were the prices. The service was efficient and the lady server was very friendly . There was one hiccup with the order but there were a lot of us and it was sorted quickly and without any unpleasantness. This was not the first time Iâd eaten there and that time was also a success. All in all, Iâd certainly recommend this as a good family restaurant with good food and friendly atmosphere.

This is a small restaurant at the bottom of Grays Hill near Bangor seafront which is closed on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday . It has an excellent reputation so, based on reviews and personal recommendation, my family and I visited yesterday evening as a party of 11. That number of people, coupled with the fact that it was a Saturday night, I think was a big mistake.Everything moved so slowly â it was like restaurants in Italy â they seemed not to be ready for people arriving and it took ages to get some drinks brought to the table, let alone put our food orders in. On the subject of drinks, you should note that they only do bottled beers â three different basic types or one cider. That was also a disappointment. Their wine list is a bit thin but gives an acceptable choice of wine types but no choice within the type. I attach a copy of the wine lists and menus for reference.None of the starters appealed to me or my wife so we asked that some bread and tapenade be brought to the table to keep those not having a starter busy while the others were having their starters. The bread came quite quickly but it then took another 25 minutes for the other starters to arrive ! It then took ages for the table to be cleared of starter plates as the restaurant had filled up to 12 + tables, all being served by only two people â it seemed difficult for them to decide what to do next â greet guests? clear tables? take orders? serve food?. We asked for some simple things â a glass of ice, another plate of bread etc. but we had to give them several reminders or actually go to the bar itself, to get the items we wanted.Approximately 1.45 minutes after arrival, the main courses were delivered and several were wrong and had to be changed. The vegetables did not arrive until some time later â one of our party had finished their meal before his potatoes arrived.In summary â the service is terrible and very badly organised. They just dont have enough waiters or a proper service planThe good things are 1 it is clean and airy, unlike a lot of Bangor restaurants,2 the 2 staff they did have seemed to be doing their best and were always cheerful and friendly.3 on complaint, the faults were fully accepted and fair recompense was made for the shortcomings4 when it eventually arrived, the actual food was excellent â I had a sirloin steak which was really nice, as was my wifeâs plaice.The bad service was very frustrating and caused chaos in our party with food being slow and delivered to the table in bits and pieces. Also, being told on booking that we had to leave by 8.45 also became worrying as the speed of service meant that there was no way we could have had a three course meal delivered and eaten in 2 hours 45 minutes - we had to abandon the desserts. They did say that we could stay longer if we wanted but taxis had been booked for the deadline so we had to leave.The restaurant is very busy so they must be doing something right â I just think they have problems with tables of more than 4 people so be warned.I always end my reviews by saying if I would return? Probably no but maybe if we were a small party of say 2-4 people.

We called in for a bite to eat around 7pm. It was totally unplanned and there were quite a few diners in for a Tuesday evening. My husband and I went for the wine and dine menu and my daughter just opted for a main but shared our starters as they are so generous. We had been in a few weeks ago and my husband tried the Hong Kong chicken as a starter and loved it so opted for this as a main. He said it was better than any Chinese restaurant. We love Donegans because of the service from Lynne and Ivan as well as the excellent food. You never leave hungry here. Our bill was about £62! This included wine and a few soft drinks too! Excellent value for money. It really is the best place to eat in Bangor and we are frequent visitors as are many others. The staff know their regulars and I believe this speaks volumes! Give it a try.

This is a real hidden gem. The food was the best food that i have had for ages. It is more expensive than other restaurants in the area, but dining here is a real experience. I strongly recommend for any foodies visiting the area. It is a smal restaurant, with a cosy feel to it. We had the 5 course tasting menu, and it was absolutely beautiful in every way, the food, the presentation and the service. I cannot fault the staff in any way, the service was absolutely perfect. I have been to many fine dining restaurants in my time, but few that can compare to this. It was great value for the quality of the food and service.I highly recommend this restaurant.

We just fancied a good night out somewhere we love, no other excuse was needed. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the regular menu, and we have some favourites on it, but Gary and Louise always seem to come up with specials that are that wee bit, well, 'special'. There were four of us in the party and we all went for the specials. Our wives had the Seafood Mornay while us husbands had Devilled Kidneys and Tournedos Rossini. I couldn't enjoy my meal properly, my gub was aching after a visit to the dentist that morning, but the others had a great time. Hopefully next time we're back I won't have a sore bake. We finished with tea/coffee and desserts. Service and food were excellent as always. As the famous Arnold Schwarzthingy said in a film or two 'I'll be back'.Delighted that you chose #undergroundding for your night out. Thank you so much for your kind compliments. Look forward to seeing you again and hopefully not having had to visit the dentist beforehand.#ugdiningbangor#undergrounddining
