Cafe in Newcastle

“Excellent food and excellent service. We had the large portion of brisket (absolutely delicious and our favorite), the small portion of ribs (good but not great (I thought the sauce was just okay. Though in all fairness my friend liked these second best.), the small portion of duck (delicious. My second favorite) , and the sweet potato fries. We finished off the meal with a Sticky Toffee Pudding with caramel sauce and vanilla ice cream (WOW !!!). The server said they recommend two small items per person. We had one large, two small and a side. It was actually too much. I would recommend three smalls or one large and one small for two people. I would highly recommend eating at Art Bar Funkel.”

“Just purchased today a beautiful bistro Garden Furniture set of 2 chairs & table from Jacksons. Had it ordered & delivered on the same day which was fantastic service. Website for ordering was easy to use & full of information , will order again from a friendly local family business.”

“We have had coffee and scones here many times. occasionally the service is a little slow when it is busy. But the staff are very friendly and the coffee and sconescarr excellent. And it is not expensive!”

“Great place for a decent meal. Breakfast, lunch or dinner. Very reasonably priced for some huge portion sizes.. Friendly staff.”

“I would highly recommend eating at Juniors Bar Carlingford. The food was exceptional, especially their famous curry and the customer service and atmosphere were a delight. We will definitely be back!”

“We'd booked for 6.30 on Saturday and we're initially confused as the ground floor is a large and not particularly lovely bar. The stairs to the first floor restaurant were discovered and things got much better from thereon. The tables are well spaced, the ambience is pleasant and sufficiently lit, (I hate dark restaurants), the service was swift and friendly, but the star of the show, as it should be, was the food. My wife had the battered cod with chips and all the trimmings in very generous proportions. Delicious. I had one of my favourite dishes, beef cheek with mash and root veg. It was astonishingly good, probably the best I have eaten. The slow cooked cheek had more flavour than fillet steak and a texture that exactly hit the spot that makes this dish so unctuous. It was a huge portion and I savoured every mouthful. As an astonishing surprise we found that The Mariner restaurant was doing a buy one get one free promotion. This has to be our best ever value restaurant meal, but more than that was the quality of the food. Next time we're over in Co. Down we will definitely revisit this unbelievably good place.”

“By far this is the best restaurant in Newcastle for modern fine dining but in a relaxed atmosphere. I selected the 3 course meal from the special Sunday menu for 25 pounds. I started with the soup of the day, potato leak soup. It was surprisingly green and excellent. Of note it was very (temperature) hot which is appropriate. The soup was well seasoned the way I like it, but I have a love of salt. Next came the ham hock rillettes which were very porky and good, served with an excellent bacon jam. Vegetable sides were good and cooked properly. The mashed potato was especially good with obviously a lot of proper butter. Lastly the dessert which surprised me. It was extremely good and although I was very full it went down too easy. I arrived at noon when they opened and was the first diner of the day. By 13:30 the place was half full. The portions look smaller but are very filling and honestly I would be very happy spilling every course with another as it was a little too much food.”

“Oh my god what a mouthwatering burger!!! We got the chefs burger meal and it was so tasty with a massive onion ring and pulled pork on the juicy beef burger. The chunky chips in the sauce was just delish too. Enjoyed every last bite. We will definitely be back to try more on the menu”

“We had a lovely dinner. The service staff were friendly and gave excellent service. The food was on point. The bar was busy but still a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.”

“Some of the best ice cream I've ever had. Staff very friendly and helpful also.”

“Mall cafe krem always lovely and clean.Best cappuccino and soup in Newry Friendly helpful staff who work hard Reasonable prices and plenty of choice Well worth a visit”

“Didn't try the food just stayed for a few drinks. They had live music on, 2 guys with guitars putting their own spin on some classic music, creating a great atmosphere and the bar was steadily busy throughout the night.”

“Best sandwich I've had in a long time. Bread was nice and fresh with filling right up to the crust. Soup was a lovely homemade creamy chicken & veg and a HUGE bowl. Couldn't believe how cheap it was for the quality given and the easy access location. Loved it! Look forward to my next visit and more friendly banter with the staff”

“Friendly atmosphere and would defo go back anytime.”

“Nice spot for a few beers...Good energy...”

“We hired bikes for half a day including a toddler trailer. We absolutely loved it! The grounds themselves are beautiful and well kept. Customer service from booking to on the day hire was second to none. Easy to book, easy to communicate with and very friendly and professional on site. Would definitely recommend clear sky and we will most definitely be back to see what else is on offer. Great day out!”
