The décor was good, but didn't really feel like it was making the most of the architectural space. It was clean but not spotless, nor was it dirty as such, although given at the time of our visit it wasn't flat out busy, the tables could have been cleared more promptly. The food was the same, decent, nothing to complain about and does exactly what it says on the tin, without really reaching to surprise or impress. The only area that was genuinely lacking was a bit of friendliness and warmth/good customer service at the till, being asked for your order in clipped deadpan sentences interspersed with talking to other staff members isn't great. All in all it's a place I'd be happy to go back to, and the sort of place that although not stellar as I mentioned doesn't have any critically bad points. It did seem like the kind of place you could go back to on another day and the experience though a range of small incremental improvements be closer to a 5* visit.

Remarkably we were able to sit outside the cafe as the mid afternoon temperature had hit a balmy 17c, phew. We settled into the outside bench style seating. The coffees were really ace quality and the service quick and friendly. It's a very small cafe in a very small seaside town close to the Irish border and it's just a two minute walk down the street to the seafront and the mostly pebble beach with great views of the Cooley and Mourne mountains. The cafe was busy although I'd imagine it's the holiday periods and Sunday tourist trade that allows it to survive. I did look at the small harbour to see if the ferry boat was crossing from Warrenpoint in Northern Ireland but I couldn't see it. I think it's called the red star line run by a private family for most of my lifetime - a unique experience if you ever get the chance but it's possible that the relatively new Carlingford ferry has stolen much of its trade.

Had chicken tacos from their street food menu and it actually tasted like street food that you would get at a cool restaurant in London or Berlin, not the reheated fast food street food you normally get on the island.

I was taken completely by surprise that such a lovely restaurant would lie in the centre of Ballynahinch, I was even more astonished at the service that was so well provided, and I was utterly stupefied by the delicious food that was set in front of me after all that. Unexpected doesn't quite cover it. Cafe Rossi is a chic bistro situated on Ballynahinch's Main Street, which, on this occasion, was the location for a scrumptious lunch. It's divided into two sections - a chilled out, relaxed area for breakfast and lunch with comfy sofas and coffee tables, and a more elegant area for fine dining in the evening. Upon our arrival, my sister and I were quickly shown to our table and provided with menus. There was a decent choice, and it did take me a while to pick (unusual, I know), but I eventually settled on the Famous Rossi Burger, whilst sister got a chicken wrap (it had a fancier name than that, but that will suffice for the meantime). We didn't have too long to wait at all, which was rather impressive, and rather fortunate, as both our tummies were playing melodious tunes with their rumbling. One bite of that burger, and I was in heaven. It was quite possibly the best burger I've ever tasted, and had a spicy kick to it, which went down an absolute treat. The huge side order of criss-cross fries = also delice, and I instantly knew that I wouldn't be able to finish the whole lot (isn't that always the way?). The sis enjoyed the wrap thingamajig, and also staring at the "hot waiter". Apologies Mr Waiter for my gawping sister. She just doesn't know when to stop... With no room left for afters, I paid the bill and departed, feeling very satisfied at finding such a lovely little restaurant. My sister, on the other hand, was feeling incredibly satisfied that she'd had some poor, undeserving waiter to drool over. I guess it was a win / win situation then? (For my sister and I that is, not for the my sister and the waiter...)

I once had a white chocolate cheesecake in here many moons ago and the image and taste are well engraved in my memory - it looked like something out of a magazine and the taste was thick, creamy yet melting and amazing.
