Pot Belly - Banbridge

The restaurant left much to be desired. In my opinion, the food was decent, but a bit overpriced, and I would give it three stars. However, my wife, on the other hand, would only give it two stars. It had been years since we last visited, but we remembered it well. The classic French cuisine and unique layout with a spiral staircase stood out in our memories. The aroma of cooking greeted us as we arrived, and the parking lot was full. We climbed the exterior stairs to the first floor and were warmly welcomed by the staff. The service was excellent and our drinks were promptly offered. Unfortunately, the drink selection was limited. I began with a delicious chicken liver pâté, although the portion size was a bit small for the price. My main course, a fillet steak, was cooked to my liking but lacked flavor. The side of chips that came with it were not to my taste. The prices were high, especially for vegetarian and vegan options. The only standout dish was the steak. The fish option, salmon, was unimpressive according to my wife. Dessert, a cheesecake, was tasty but the addition of factory-made biscuits seemed out of place. The coffee was the highlight of the meal. Overall, we were not impressed and likely won’t be returning. With some creativity and improvement, the dining experience could be much better considering the high prices. However, it seems that the restaurant caters mainly to a specific clientele.

I went to this restaurant for dinner and was incredibly unimpressed. Both meals lacked flavor and were overpriced. I had a really disappointing experience and will not be returning.

This restaurant is worth visiting as the chef really knows how to cook. I highly recommend trying the pot dish. My wife and I were so impressed that we recommended it to our friends, and even booked a reservation for our daughters. The lamb rump we had was cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious. The entire evening was relaxing and enjoyable.

This restaurant is one of the best in our environment for the quality of food. it's somewhere where I took our family visitors, as it provides delicious dishes. make sure they book in advance to avoid disappointment. might get a little tired (below wc could. to do with shipping) and the parking is a bit haphazard (mind the potholes,) but it does not attract from service, atmosphere and eat off.

Although only open on certain days so you need to book it is great place to eat. Staff are great and all food well proportioned and very good quality.
