Thoroughly Recommend. Staying in Bushmills for the weekend and booked a table for 8 in the restaurant. We had never been before and I had never heard of Tartine. Went for the early dining menu which was delicious for all of our party as well as being excellent value at around £25 for 2 courses including wine or beer. Add to this some super friendly staff and you have a top notch restaurant which is well worth a visit. Will be back very soon! Thank you Tartine

Eventually got a table here for Sunday lunch a couple of weeks ago. Disappointed with our meal…. The menu reads very well but we discovered it’s a 2 course or 3 course menu, all we wanted was one course. We ordered starters, as neither of us are very keen on desserts. By the time the main course arrived we didn’t have an appetite. I had the “Tranche of Salmon on Baked Seafood Thermidor” in other words a Salmon Fillet on a gloppy sauce with next to no seafood in it! Not what I was expecting. My friend had the lamb and again it was disappointing and not what was expected. We sat in a room which was an appendage of the main dining area mainly by ourselves!, there was a nice fire and the staff were friendly. Finally other customers joined us but by then we were nearly finished. In total it was a disappointing experience.

Probably the best restaurant on the North Coast. Great quality food and the most pleasant, attentive and polite waiting staff (congratulations to the delightfully well-mannered waitresses, who clearly take a pride in offering hospitality). Amongst a wide range of dining options, Tartine has quickly become our 'go to' of choice. A gracious and accommodating manager keeps a watchful eye that the highest standards are being maintained. We enjoyed another fabulous Sunday lunch with good friends, seated beside a warming log fire. Thank you, Tartine, for helping to create another memorable occasion. And, of course, compliments to the chef(s)! We will be back.

We visit Tartine each year on our annual pilgrimage to Bushmills and it is always vey good. This time though it exceeded our expectations. Food was excellent, staff fabulous and good value for money. We had Sunday lunch and both blown away with the quality of food and each had glasses of house wines which were generous portions The decor, cleanliness and ambience all excellent.

I have always loved this restaurant and visited many times, however, our last visit was not the usual experience. We were seated at the front of the restaurant which hasn’t got the same atmosphere as the main part of the building. Not a big issue as we were there for the food. I would have preferred not to have had the mussel shells from the previous diner under my feet though. I can’t remember what our starters were (says a lot) but we ordered steak and pork as mains. I didn’t try the steak so wouldn’t be fair to comment but there wasn’t much feed back other than ‘I’ve had better and you couldn’t eat the mushrooms’. The pork was well cooked but the rest of the plate not so much. The black pudding was completely dried out and the cabbage and bacon was very oily, both inedible unfortunately. For the first time we had no dessert. When asked if we enjoyed our meal we said it was just ok, no response from the staff we paid our bill and left. I appreciate views are subjective and maybe because I love Tartine so much it was a sore disappointment.

Great value for early bird dining. It beats the in-town competition hands down! Granted this menu seems to have been more or less static this year and I end up choosing the same main dish (bacon based) but that's a minor gripe. I'd recommend the wine upgrade - so worth it for a small surcharge. Not sure about the vegetarian options though for early birds. Didn't sound very exciting. There's a parking area at the back but if full main street has a large free car park that's not too far a walk.

We booked the wrong time (by mistake), we put 14 instead of 4 so when we arrived at 4pm the door was closed. They tried to take £70 off our credit card !!!!!!!!!. Fortunately we didn't have enough money, they still tried to take 1 million times until they got 20 pounds. We went to the restaurant again to talk to the manager and explain the situation .... They told us they could check it out and give us our money back, but they NEVER DID. Very disappointing.... Completely awful from such a famous restaurant... we were looking forward to going but we will never go back!

We walked in and were able to get a table, but I recommend calling ahead in the summer. The early menu was dynamite, service great and we loved the mussels. Great steaks too.

The food here is absolutely amazing. Honestly one of the best meals I’ve had across multiple continents. You can’t go wrong.

Amazing food, amazing staff, just amazing!! I could not fault this restaurant and I haven’t been able to say that about a restaurant in a very long time.
Went here for the early bird dinner and we really enjoyed our meal! It was excellent. Service was great too. Highly recommend.

Restaurant was freezing. It was so so noisy I couldn’t hear my husband speaking. Food was laced with salt. Definitely a very poor experience!!!

Booked for their early bird at 5:30pm and the restaurant was packed - a good omen for what was to come? Met by a friendly waiter and shown immediately to our table and given a quick list of special and the normal menu. Service was quick and efficient and the staff were helpful but not overpowering. We don’t often have 3 courses but the menu persuaded us! Deep fried Brie and salad followed by salmon and sirloin steak and an Elton mess concoction - all hot and perfectly presented. Absolutely delicious and could not be faulted The bill was £71 including drinks which we regard as very good value considering the quality for the food, the service and the ambience, hence the sizeable tip! Can’t wait until the next time we can in Busmills

I really cannot fault Tartine! The quality of the food is exceptional and the service and ambience are very good as well. Their 'early bird' menu (two courses and a glass of wine for £25) is also fabulous value for money.Parking: They have their own car park and there is also on street parking available right outside.
