Elliot's Bistro - Coleraine

Just wanted to say what an excellent night we had with the girls once again. Food was amazing, with fantastic choice of both bistro style food and Xmas dinners. The bistro was really busy and staff were friendly and our food arrived promptly and hot. The new sweet menu has some amazing puddings can’t wait to go back for the cherry roulade and the mulled wine syrup sundae . Well done to all concerned great place to visit.

We chose this as a convenient mid point venue for a birthday celebration at the Lodge Hotel Coleraine. We were greeted by unsmiling staff and shown to our table. We made our choices. The starters arrived promptly and were OK. When the main course arrived, the waitress unfortunately overbalanced her tray and the salad with blue cheese sauce slid off into my friend's bag and all over the floor! These things happen but not once did she apologise. My other friend had chosen the nut roast. This had been over microwaved to the point of cremation. She drew it to the attention of the waitress who just looked blankly at her! She finally twigged she should ask if she'd like a replacement. Again no apology. The other two mains, fish, were uninspiringly mediocre to say the least. When we'd finished these, a waitress came up with the dessert menu and said we could choose one on the house. I chose Christmas pudding which turned out to be sponge with 6 sultanas!! My two friends wanted liquer coffees and it took 20 mins before we could attract anyone's attention. We were then told the coffee machine would be closing in 10 minutes! We got the coffee and I asked for the bill and a chat with the duty manager. The chap came and chatted to me whilst I explained our unfortunate experience. He was very apologetic. I asked him to review the bill before presenting it to us. He came back with a cheesecake with a candle in and took £5 off the bill! Never again! More training def required.

Fantastic food ,great atmosphere Value for money , have been several times now have never been disappointed yet.

Ate at this establishment on two occasions during our stay on the north coast. Both visits were excellent in terms both of food and service. One of our visits was during the Early Bird menu and we were surprised how keen the price was for meals which really were of quite sizeable proportions. This restaurant is always busy and it's easy to see the reason why.

We decided to go here before cinema in Coleraine. Wasn't overly busy at 6pm so got served quickly. We have been a number of times with kids and always great service and food.
