Garlic bread is incredible though the "aioli" tasted like it was just mayo but the bread didn't need it at all. Goujons were good but the bbq sauce didn't taste bbq at all. The pepper sauce was nice though. Star here was the rotisserie chicken: fall off the bone and cooked perfectly. Again though, sauce was mid. Nothing on this menu needs a sauce (except Goujons) but they all come with them! Dishes def stand alone. All that said, the device made the meal!

The best of the best is a high honor to achieve in Brian's burger world. I visited on a Sunday late afternoon. The sunday after Pride Day. It was quiet, and there were many open tables. The servers were both really nice, and the food was cooked perfectly and delivered swiftly. I can't say specifically why I can't give it a 5/5; my burger standards are high. It was right up there knocking on the door to a perfect score. To each their own, but it *just* missed the mark.

We came in, very hungry, after a tour at the distillery, and very cold due to the arctic gale force winds that let smacking us! Once inside, we considered just moving in! The place is literally at the entrance to the Giants Causeway visitors center parking lot. It's a cute, rustic (like every other building in the area) building with equally quaint interior that trends towards a pub with a subtle nautical theme. Darker woods, lighter walls, a nice bar and several rooms that lead into each other, but seem very separate. The vibe is perfect! They've got plenty of Irish pub fare, most of which is hot - a key piece of info as most fingers were fighting for feeling at this point. We ordered Steak and Guinness pie, fish pie, fish and chips, a couple scones and Irish Stew. Ravenously hungry, we tackled this beastly lunch and all left full and warm. The scones were closer to biscuits, but were probably the best we've had in the country - and my better half loves her some scones! The food came out quick - the place was crazy busy and it still took less than 10 minutes. By the time we were done, we wondered if we could just stow away in the basement and live off the scones and cream! Parking was best done in the visitors center parking lot so make sure you're coming out here where you've already paid for the trip out to the coastline. The was exactly what we hoped it would be and exactly what we were looking for on this typical Irish spring day!

I went in with great expectations, walked out disappointed. We went to the Nook on the…read morerecommendation of our tour guide. Two people working the front, one was the food runner, one worked the bar, who also took orders, cashed you out, poured your drink, etc. Make sure to grab a table before you get in line to order, as you'll need your table number. It took a while to order, as there was a long line. We got the following: - soup and sandwich combo - Traditional Iris Stew - Steak & Guinness Pie It took about 15 minutes to get our food, but only two of the three came out and the lamb stew I ordered was given to my family member, the food runner didn't say anything, just dropped it off and left. While waiting, other tables were getting their food, but we still haven't received our 3rd dish, so after 15 minutes of waiting went up to the bar to inquire, but the lady working there was gone. After waiting few minutes, she was now delivering the foods... wait few minutes, then went back to the table and our 3rd dish was there. The interior looked like it hadn't changed in years and the tables don't get cleaned often due to limited staff. I guess you can be thankful for being able to get some food and use the restroom. The food was decent, but things could be a lot more efficient, if they have one person taking orders, one person working the bar, few working to deliver the food and people cleaning up the tables. That would require a lot more staff than the numbers they had when we visited.

I have to agree with another review that, based on the hype I read about online, I was pretty…read moreunderwhelmed with this burger. The flavor and the char on the meat is kinda nice, but the meat is cooked to hell and dry as a desert... that's desert, not dessert. The sauce had to do that work, and even with 'extra sauce' requested, it was not enough make up for the dry burger. Staff is friendly, but to my palette, the food was barely acceptable and reminiscent of the pre foil-wrapped burgers you get at a hospital or school cafeteria. There's a time and place for that type of burger, but not at these prices.

So happy with our choices because this was some of the best food we had in our entire trip. Even 'just burgers and fries' they offered unique toppings, as well as offering some unique craft beers in bottles-we hadn't seen on any tap list. I ordered the Black Pudding Burger-which was the best meal on my trip. The burger was massive and stacked with juicy, bold flavor toppings. I also had the side salad, which was zestier than I expected. My hubby ordered the Champion BBQ burger, also super juicy, stacked high with toppings. Friends ordered one of each taco, and each was better than the last bite-making it hard to pick a favorite. I wish I could have gotten another burger on another night, it's worth it! Service was really good too. We had a friendly waitress, who checked in on us often :)

If you remember the much missed Fouters Bistro you won't recognise the place now! The Smoking Goat is primarily a traditional pub with cosy nooks and crannies, real ales on tap and in bottles, and a great wee bar menu. The lunchtime options feature rare breed beef burger, venison sausage sandwich, pulled pork slider, smoked haddock fishcake, black pudding scotch egg with whisky mustard and more - all pretty imaginative stuff for this part of the world! Vegetarians are valued customers and it was a rare treat to find myself swithering over the menu. I narrowed things down to the red pepper falafel or the jerk spiced portobello mushroom burger with pineapple salsa. I went with the latter and it didn't disappoint, though I could have done with a few more of their lovely crisp fries on the side. Yay for free wifi without a password. I found it impossible to get a data signal down there so it came in handy. Customer-wise this is a good spot for socialising as well as dining. There are events going on throughout the week including pub quizzes and they have a pull down screen which I think they are showing the 6 nations rugby on, though this is not a 'sports bar' and there are no TVs. This is just a personal opinion, but I'd love to see the music turned down a wee notch to make conversation easier, and the lighting turned up a wee notch so the menu can be more easily read. Despite all the hard stone surfaces the acoustics were excellent. I can see this being a good venue for the occasional intimate music gig. Recommended!
