Took my wife out for her birthday lunch and had very good food and service at a reasonable price. Would recommend.

Stood at the bar, 2 servers coming and going never even acknowledged me so after around 2 minutes I just left it. After my lunch I asked for a coffee, never came so just left. It wasn't busy at all as it was coming near the end of lunch service. The staff seemed to be more interested in chatting to each other. Disappointed.

We booked our table easily online. Good food options on the various menus - we chose the buffet. Carrot and lentil soup was lovely and the buffet spread was fantastic and very tasty. The Chef was very pleasant and gave a good serving. There was a good variety of soft drinks that were reasonably priced. Best Carvery I have had this year. We will be back!

Excellent food in the beautiful bistro every time we go. The staff are always polite, friendly and can never do enough for us. Atmosphere is great, one of the best spots on the coast, always look forward to our visits! Can’t recommend highly enough!

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.
Staff are great, service is great, and the restaurant itself is warm cosy and well laid out.My husband and I used to eat here once or twice a month for many years, however we've only been twice over the past couple of years, as the food is just not the top notch it used to be, I'm certainly not suggesting it's terrible, just bland and not worth the cost any longer.Perhaps they changed chief

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.

Our 5 year old grandson said “ This dinner is delicious” . Thank you again to the Lodge Hotel !! Exceptional!! service and delicious food !! We got the train from Portrush and the hotel is a short 15 minute stroll away from Coleraine train station. Joan from the lodge seated us in the quieter bar area as one of our grandsons is autistic. We were able to order him plain penne pasta which they cooled down ,suggesting to close the door in case he runs out and providing us with a plastic container so he could eat his food. It’s really is more than going extra mile. The chef at the lunch carvery is always so friendly and helpful. There’s a great selection of food to choose from , carvery or order off the menu , generous portions and well priced . It’s always busy when we visit and a great atmosphere. Thank you again to the Lodge!! Exceptional every visit !!

We called into Elliot’s Bistro, which is beside The Lodge Hotel in Coleraine for dinner. Staff were very friendly & helpful. They let us see the menu & asked us if we wanted a drink. We then gave them our order & they asked us if everything was okay for us. Elliot’s Bistro is located beside The Lodge Hotel on The Lodge Road area of Coleraine & has free parking for your car.

Great food and selection on the menu, service was friendly and efficient, nice bright welcoming decor, all in all excellent.Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian dishes available, and I am sure from experience they would try and cater for anyone.Kid-friendliness: Kids are more than welcome, and as during my visit they even sang happy birthday to a little girl.Parking: The parking lot is well surfaced, on one level with easy access to wide automatic doors.Wheelchair accessibility: Excellent accessibility for wheelchair users, plenty of open area and space between tables.Dietary restrictions: You can inform the hotel of and dietry restrictions using the allocated text box on the online booking form, or by phone.
