The restaurant offers a delicious Eggs Royale dish, featuring smoked salmon, poached eggs with hollandaise sauce, and parsley on top of toasted muffins. They also serve the Primrose Breakfast, which includes back bacon, sausages, portobello mushrooms, white and black pudding, a fried egg, wheaten bread, and baked beans.

My husband and I came to this restaurant for breakfast and we had a wonderful experience. I was pleasantly surprised by the generous amount of maple syrup on my bacon maple pancakes, as I didn't have to ask for more (not too many maple trees in Ireland, right?). The restaurant was clean, the service was good, and the food was delicious. I also took a banoffee tart to go and it was incredible! I highly recommend trying it. My only issue was the lack of parking nearby, as it was difficult to find a spot.

Lunch here is always fantastic. Try the burger! Both the burger and chips are really fantastic, and this goes for a lot of the lunch offerings. 5 stars if it were only lunch. Unfortunately, the breakfast is a bit of a letdown. The fry was average (awful sausages), and the avocado and poached egg on toast was a bit vague and unsure of itself. Generally, the staff are lovely and the location is excellent.

Beautiful wee place next to the Foyle's Quay. Gorgeous view on the river and the city around it. Calm and quiet location, fully enjoyable on a nice day. They have tables both inside and outside. Polite staff. Good and quality choice of beers and cocktails. Liked their fried squids (though ideally there could have been few more rings in the plate : Overall highly recommended!
