    Turnip & Cider Soup
    Alexandria Y.

    Amazing dinner last night! I ordered the Turnip & Cider Soup, Nicoise Salad, Toffee Bread Pudding and the Valrhona Chocolate Pot. Every flavour was perfectly balanced and complemented each other exquisitely. Very pleasantly surprised! The service was on par. And the view is gorgeous, being right on the beach.

    I was told by my host that Harry's Shack has the best Fish and Chips in the area, and they must be right. Awesome! Their Mulroy Bay Mussels are right-out-of-the-water fresh. Even on a blustery day, the outside seating is worth it. As for dessert, both their Valrohna Chocolate Pot and Sticky Toffee were by far the best desserts we had in two weeks in the U.K.

    First visit here last night and I can guarantee it won't be my last. Stunning setting on the edge of one of northern ireland's most beautiful beaches. We had a walk on the rather windy shore before dinner so appetites were keen in anticipation of a great meal and we weren't disappointed. On first impressions Harry's Shack is just that. An unimpressive wooden structure with a few tables outside. Inside however you are met with wonderfully fresh cooking aromas from the open kitchen area and there are windows on 2 sides overlooking the strand. We were seated beside a window with a wooden bench seat on one side (could do with a few cushions lads!) The stripped back interior style is just perfect though so I'm not going to focus on the lack of soft furnishings. The menu had about 5 or 6 options Including vegetarian and or gf. We opted for battered haddock and chips with mushy peas and an enormous stacked beefburger with tomato jam. Desserts were a chocolate pot and a creme caramelle which we virtually inhaled they tasted so good and there's a selection of coffees/tea on offer too Harry's isn't licenced yet and we were driving so just stuck with water but you can byo. Our bill for 3 was £45 and we were very well fed. The staff were friendly knowledgeable and efficient throughout our visit and the restaurant was buzzing with activity. It's a good idea to book (I used their handy online system) as I'd say tables in high season would be at a premium.

    Vegetarian option pretty tasty for a fish restaurant!

    Great breakfast and espresso! Went on a cold day so we couldn't use the outdoor seating, but would be even better in the summer!

    We had a wonderful experience at The Crosskeys Inn. It's Ireland's oldest thatched roof pub and we…read moregot a brief talk about thatching, so look up as you're entering! Watch your head, unless you're as short as I am. We were on the CIE Scots Irish tour. We somehow got a table directly next to the band and had a wonderful time, let folks come and sit with us, got Guinness with Blackcurrant (which depending on who you ask is WRONG ... I thought it was fun). We had a BBQ buffet dinner that was good with plenty of food. They let us take home our placemats which are maps of Ireland. Also, there was a gift shop with some lovely items that came home with us, as well.

This pub has been standing since the 17th Century, they know a thing or two about hospitality. Our party of five made ourselves cozy in the sessions corner as the pub keeper offered to light a peat moss fire for our comfort. They sell tee-shirts and tourist patronize this place, on account of it being a very old, beautiful Irish pub, but there were a few locals enjoying a pint when we stopped in. One of the owners is American, and I was surprised to see JFK Memorabilia in the smaller room. They have antique oil lamps, old firearms and assorted things on display for patrons to muse. They proudly serve Bushmills and even their own brand of Crosskeys Whisky, but I got a gin and tonic and enjoyed the Northern Irish craic that was on full supply on this June day.

    We've tried a lot of the menu here as we stayed at the hotel for almost a week. Breakfast comes…read morewith the room so it's silly not to have it, and it's one of only two restaurants up here. The Causeway Breakfast Grill includes everything in an Irish breakfast, lots of protein and a couple bits of carb: sausage, back bacon with a fried egg, chewy potato bread and yeasty soda farl, grilled tomato and mushrooms as well. Other options include pancakes, an okay smoked salmon with scrambled eggs, and surprisingly delicious milky Porridge. There's a Continental Breakfast buffet that's open to everyone, and it has all the staples. Cereal, yogurt, and toast are sprinkled with a sparse selection of fruit, and a few pastries that run out fast. The coffee is awful. I don't think anyone here knows how to make coffee. Make it in your room or just have a nice cup of tea. Most of the food is alright, though, things like the Roast Silverside of Beef Sunday can be quite bland. The beef is tough, the Yorkshire pudding is great, and the Brussels sprouts are steamed to a dreadful pulp. There's a caramelised onion and goat's cheese tartlet that's more like a quiche, filled with fluffy eggs and plenty of creamy cheese, and it makes a nice, light lunch. Fish and chips is always a good option, and the Open Steak Sandwich is my favorite thing by far. The McAtamney's rolled rump is quite tender and the peppercorn sauce is great, with a lot of fresh black pepper for flavor. Afternoon Tea is only for two so if you're dining solo, not only are you lonely, you also don't get tea. It's a fun selection, enjoyed the sausage roll and smoked salmon, and scones are always lovely. The cheesecake is freezer-burnt, but everything else is alright. If you want dessert, the Bushmills Pecan Nut Pie is the only one I tried, and I love it. It's basically a a pecan pie, but that happens to be my favorite pie, and they make a good one. The rooms have no refrigeration so you're mostly eating here if you don't want to drive elsewhere. The food is okay overall, but the prices are rather high compared to less touristy location.

    So this is the perfect spot to unwind after braving the treacherous Giant's Causeway... seriously,…read moreif you're not careful you could break a leg. The hotel has a very nice bar and sitting area, and if you're coming in with a group, it is ideal. However, the bar is really just a service bar, so if you're alone, you'll have to deal with sitting at a table, and perhaps taking up more space than you would like... Still, overall, it is a pretty good experience.

We enjoyed the appetizer of Guinness and onion soup and the Inn's bread but they weren't as special as the menu descriptions made them out to be: the whiskey and smoked cheese roll was hard to tell either of those flavors but the butter and pesto were very good. The soup was fine but I guess we had high expectations for it to be better than your average French onion soup. Again for entrees I think the menu descriptions built up our expectations but everything seemed even more bland than the apps. The BAHARAT SPICE RUMP OF IRISH LAMB was cooked well but was pretty flavorless even with the hummus and sauce and the lamb fat potato stack just soft potato. The unique piccolo peppers were the only thing that provided some pop to the dish- maybe it wasn't seasoned properly? The filet with the Bushmills whiskey black pepper cream and roast mushroom tomato and rocket was seasoned a little better but the cream was lacking some punch. Good but not great. It all sounds good but doesn't feel like elevated cooking especially for the price. Finally the desserts were split. We ordered a shot of the Bushmills 10 yr to go with the butterscotch sundae which made the sundae perfect. Without it I'm thinking way too sweet. The milk and honey delice was disappointing. We ate the ganache and left the rest. The crust had a strange herb like flavor that was very unappealing.

It is probably why the local folks we met did not recommend it because it was expensive. But overall we had a good experience and cannot complain about the quality of the food or service.
