Restaurants in Castlewellan

The Maghera Inn

Incredible in every way. We were on holiday and visiting Tolleymore and it was simple time to feed the kids. Took our large group (8) no problem. Gave us a private area. Every menu item was delicious. Including the deserts. And the hospitality was spectacular. One of our serves had visited the states so we stayed and chatted a bit. 100% a must. And 100% will go again if were in Ireland!

Turnip House

I love this place! Every time we go in we have a great time and everything we eat and drink is always beautiful. So welcoming you could sit the whole day and not feel you’ve over stayed your welcome. The arts and crafts are beautiful also. Really worth a browse.

The Yard Restaurant

Had a fab meal here on a whim after a day trip to Newcastle.
I had wings (proper spicy buffalo with blue cheese sauce and celery) then 6oz burger, my mum had duck main followed by chocolate & coconut tart, as pictured.
Friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Maginns

Absolutely love Maginn's. It's always a busy spot, but staff always manage to get you a table. I have visited many times with just a few of us or as a large family group. Adults and kids alike love the food. The staff are really friendly and can't do enough for you. I normally go for the steak or house burger, but I was there last week and decided to try the chicken stack with bacon and leek sauce. It was amazing! My nephew also swears that it's the nicest lasagne in the country. Whenever I'm in the area I always call here and if I'm not driving I love to get their lovely creamy Guinness. It always goes down a treat.

Luna Coffee

Hidden gem. I’m quite fussy about coffee, cappuccinos in particular (Italy spoiled!) This little place gave the option of short, medium or long coffees, which is generally rare in Northern Ireland. Cappuccino was exceptional, up there with the best coffee I’ve had outside of Italy. Strong, short, smooth and well balanced. Friendly and quick service. Not a lot of seating inside, but some outside. Not that it mattered as we were getting coffee to go. Highly recommend. Easily castewellans best cup of coffee. Good selection of eats too. Thanks!

Parking: Adequate spaces right outside the coffee house

Turley's Bar

With views of the Mourne Mountains be sure to reserve a window seat. The food was excellent and a good selection of dishes on the menu. The atmosphere was relaxed. Staff were very attentive and friendly. Good selection of beers etc. Would easily recommend based on my experience.

Old Tom Bar

Great wee bar one of the best stouts I've had in age's bar staff/owner are very friendly and extremely attentive. The locals are very friendly, and made us feel very welcome and made us feel at home.

Taste of New York Pizzeria

Order regular for home Pizzas,dough rolls and Southwest twister are always top quality. Deals are very reasonable. Delivery guys regularly early. All round first class.

The Fountain Bar

After reading reviews on here. I rang around other restaurants to try and change my table, unfortunately I couldn't get a suitable time to accommodate everyone in our group.\nWell I am so glad. \nFrom the 1st point of contact with fountain Lane, everything was perfect.\nI emailed them b4 hand and they reserved us a beautiful big round table, with plenty of room.\nThe food was unreal, everyones steak was cooked to perfection, and portions were plenty, everyone of us can't wait to return. Staff couldn't do enough for us, and 3 of the young girls serving actually brought out my sisters cake singing, staff reserved a booth down stairs for us as it was a Saturday evening and a special occasion. Note its January, and they may not be able to in busier months, so thank you fountain Lane for making my sisters 40th dinner such a lovely night.

Nel's

I've called in a couple of times recently for breakfast. Usually on the way to a golf course. Couldn't fault it. Friendly and helpful staff, delicious food well cooked and very well priced. Definitely would recommend!

Urban Food & Coffee

Lovely little cafe in the village. Great feed, lovely coffee and very well priced with lovely staff. They don't allow dogs inside, but that's all good, they even dried the benches in the rain for us.

Nana's Kitchen

We stopped by on the way to Silent Velley for a quick lunch. Lovely atmosphere, very warm hosts and amazing food. If we’re here again, would definitely drop by another time.

Eastern Pearl

The Oak Grill

Very busy chippy, staff where friendly and helpful. I got a chicken burger meal and it was lovely. Only downside was they forgot to put salt on my chips although they were very busy. But food was delicious and will be back when im near there again.

Zebedees

Great food. Great service. Wonderful portion. They were extra kind to us just coming in from Canada. We both had the fish dinner. The batter was perfect. The fries were crisp and tasty. Highly recommend.
