Restaurants in Bangor

“We weren't sure at first, but we were pleasantly surprised. The food was very tasty and piping hot. There's a few places to sit inside too. Can't wait to go back.”

“Tried this place on a whim for a takeaway. Really good bubble tea and the food was tasty and wasn't stodgy or bloating. I think I'll get more next time:)”

“We got married on October 18, 2025. When we first viewed the venue in 2024, the viewing was host by Kirsty who was extremely professional and knowledgable. Which is part of why we wanted to put our trust in Clandeboye. Since booking the venue, every single member of the wedding team was been quick to respond to our many questions and always helpful. Whether it was Lorraine, Ian, Mai, Gia, or someone else. In particular, they were excellent in helping with guest allergies and concerns, immediately reducing our stress levels. Graham (our MC) and the team absolutely smashed it out of the park on the day. Graham made sure to introduce himself the night before the wedding and was extremely professional but approachable on the day itself. He even considered the little touches like keeping us canapés to the side to ensure we ate and checking in with us regularly (without being on top of us all day). When there were issues, he discretely dealt with them on our behalf and nothing felt like too much. Our guests lauded the serving team at dinner and the food, saying it’s one of the best wedding meals they’ve had. The team were prompt, polite and (from what we seen) the service was seamless. The clandeboye truly was our dream wedding venue and we couldn’t recommend them enough.”

“Highly recommend this place from outstanding service to quality food. Great choice for our Sunday dinner and nothing was an issue while catering for my son and niece for the kids menu. Sea food pie was something else, delicious. Veg came separately and there was plenty.”

“We eat here fairly regularly and it's always amazing but I wanted to leave a review after our takeaway tonight. I tried the special fried rice for a change and I have to say it is the most delicious rice I have ever eaten! I will probably dream about it tonight! Don't ever leave, best food in North Down ☺️”

“We absolutely loved our recent dining experience here. The overall menu variation is fantastic, making it easy to find something for everyone, and the pricing offers exceptional value for the caliber of food. The real highlight, however, was the local venison Wellington. It was rich, incredibly tender, and perfectly prepared—easily the best Wellington I’ve ever had. Highly recommend this spot!”

“It certainly is a treat to visit The Starfish, made especially enticing by their fabulous specials. I love the food and absolutely love being in there, it’s so light and airy. Beautiful brunch spot!”

“Went for Sunday dinner with my father, the menu covered all bases, had the set 3 course menu,and was reasonably priced. The staff were extremely helpful and pleasant. Enjoyed immensely, will bring him again as he found it easy to manoeuvre his wheel chair and found the atmosphere relaxed.”

“One of the best burgers in the valley. You won’t find anything else like it! Highly recommend the uncle daddy burger”

“Great pizza at a great price. Will recommend to anyone in the area to come here. When we arrived they were full, but they took our number and called us back in 15 minutes for our table. The 2 course and drink is an absolute value!”

“Food was amazing, gourmet burger was delicious. Black forest gateau and the mochas are great too. Lovely staff, very helpful and a nice space to dine in.”

“Went in on a very wet day. We were only going to have a couple of drinks but we decided to have their cheeseboard as a small snack. It was amazing value for money, lots of crackers, cheese and grapes, with a vwry tasty chutney for some sweetness. Staff were very friendly and efficient. The icing on the cake though was the coal fire, roaring away and keeping us toasty warm.”

“Visited here with a friend I was staying with in Bangor. We found the pub had a lovely atmosphere and the waiter serving us was lovely. I ordered the lasagne, which was deliciously prepared however maybe a little overdone but still tasty. My friend had the steak ciabatta, the temp was perfect and both our plates were scraped. Would certainly return for another visit to this local pub.”

“Fantastic pizzas though chicken kebab on chips went down hill not sure if they have changed the sauce”

“I stopped by here for lunch a couple of months back and couldn't believe how good the food was. So much so that I talked my family into getting the family platter and has now become a regular thing. Have tried pretty much everything off the menu and haven't been disappointed. If I have any negatives it would be, on one occasion I think they ran out of chicken and I had a 40 min wait on more being cooked(I assume it's oven cooked then grilled) but it was resolved well and I would have waited anyway. Staff are great, friendly and willing to help. The selection of sauces set out for people to try is a great idea for people who've never been before. Hands down the best place for a cheat day!”

“It's a karaoke pub and honestly the atmosphere was great. Young or old everyone participates and everyone appreciates.”

“Their vegetarian breakfast is fantastic, great value for money, staff are very friendly, highly recommended, just one drawback,it's so small that there is no toilet, or hand washing facilities for us customers”

“Third time at The Galley and it hasn't disappointed once. Incredible dishes at reasonable prices, coupled with first class,friendly service. Amazing duck confit ragu and a perfectly cooked rare ribeye steak have been the highlights. Have no idea how this place isn't the most popular restaurant in Bangor.”

“Myself and my husband decided to stay here for our 1 year anniversary and it did not disappoint. The spa is absolutely amazing and not too over crowded, the food was fantastic. The service from all the staff from we checked in to we left was excellent. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. The only downside was the room was extremely warm, however there was a fan provided. But overall it was amazing and we will definitely return.”

“In my view best Indian in Bangor. Had a great chicken naga here and thoroughly enjoyed it. The service is great and the prices are reasonable. They catered for the kids who aren’t keen on Indian food. Don’t hesitate but go check it out.”

“First time I’d been here and not disappointed. It was a group dinner, 50 or so of us, and everything was delivered swiftly, all the mains were hot, all the puddings hot or cold as they should be, and everything looking as fresh as though it was the only meal they’d prepared. It was all delicious and very well cooked and presented. The atmosphere was beautifully calm for such a large area and the staff were so friendly and helpful. Although we were in a big group I felt as personally cared for and valued by the staff as though I was the only person there, and others in the group agree. Highly recommended, and a big thank you to all the lovely staff.”

“Have been driving past here for ages but this time we stopped for lunch and we weren't disappointed. You can choose from the menu on the wall above the counter or create your own meal from the vast assortment of already cooked meats and vegetables. You pay at the till and in no time at all your order is delivered to your table. The decor is American Diner and is bright and cheery. My son had The Big Pitstop Burger and I had sausage egg and chips both were lovely. Can't wait to return.”

“We had a ball here last week. Food and pre gig drinks. It's right next to The Court house venue so perfect location. Food was good. Nice cocktails. Our server was so nice. Lovely girl. Made the evening for us.”

“This beautiful pub and restaurant is an absolute find, so much so we had our wedding reception here. The location overlooking the most beautiful little harbour with stunning views from an outside deck area is well worth visiting for this alone however the main reason to go is the food it is exceptional, I have worked in 5* restaurants and hotels and can safely say this place is second to none, just wonderful. The staff are amazing, nothing is a bother whatever you want that's available to them they will get for you. Paul the manager went above and beyond for us on our wedding day and prior to it, anything we wanted he sourced for us. If you are looking for an absolute hidden gem off the beaten track head to this wonderful little picturesque pub / restaurant for excellent value for money, exceptional food and service also atmosphere then you're on to a winner here. We cannot wait to go back soon.”

“This is by far one of the best Indian restaurants I've eaten at. The food was so delicious, very fresh and not oily at all. While we were waiting for take out, so many Irish locals walked in to either place an order or pick up their take out. The chef and the entire team at this restaurant are so nice. We felt so welcomed and will be back again when we are visiting Belfast.”

“workers are amazing and have been trained very well, I really like the curry sauce, you HAVE to try ut”

“I'm envious of the lucky people of Bangor who get to enjoy this fantasy Chinese every night. The woman taking our order over the phone was pure good vibes; so friendly and helpful. The excellent service continued when we went to pick up. And that's just the service ... The food was mouthwatering, deliciously flavoursome and fresh with great quality ingredients. The Mongolian chicken and prawn toast were incredible, but everything was a 10/10. Very reasonably priced and great portions. I would definitely recommend this place and it would be worth a travel from Pluto for me.”

“Best there is in bangor. Fresh food at affordable prices but cash only”

“Had a lovely breakfast here. Came just as it opened so was very quiet. Staff were friendly. Bit chilly upstairs (just opened obviously) but then they lit the log burner for us.”
