Had forgotten there’s no waiting area downstairs and no obvious sign of a lift, so my friend went back to reception and spoke to the lady, who was lovely and said we could go straight to our table. Restaurant was half empty, so this is obviously a way of getting you to buy a drink before dinner? Can’t see any other reason. We were shown our menu and then a man came to take our order and basically preempted everything we were going to say and we both felt it was like a race to order ASAP and when asked if the chicken fillet with string onions and sauce came with champ, it was an abrupt no, so we had to order sides to accompany our mains. So we had of the chicken main courses, sides and soft drinks for Felt it was expensive for a mediocre meal experience. The waiting staff (who were nice) seemed under pressure and we could relate. Don’t think we will be rushing back. Oh the lady at reception gave us a big cheery goodbye and she apologised for being asked to sit upstairs.

The food was good excellently presented and the main course. Would prefer if a side was included with the mains for the price being paid. Cocktails were good but is quite pricey for Dungannon so I wouldn’t be tempted to get more than one.

If there are birthdays they will play the “happy birthday song” very loud and might scare you a bit.

The food was terrible, not good quality and totally overpriced. The only positive was the table staff who were friendly but this did not make up for the overall service particularly the way the Manager spoke to us. We will not be recommending.
