Barista - Newtownabbey

Nice place to stop for a coffee or snack . Plenty of parking , nice views over Belfast lough . It’s a small cafe but nice friendly staff and good service.

Warm day, popped in for a quick ice cream. Some time later, I was sill standing there, waiting… waiting… the girl who was serving had a facial expression which… let’s say strongly implied that she doesn't like her job much. Every so often, while our...growing queue waited interminably, she would wander off for ages to try and get some change from elsewhere, as she clearly hadn’t been supplied with much. Or ice cream. It took about 20 minutes to get served; 18 of 20 ice cream containers were empty, so you could have rum raisin, or cookies cream. When I eventually got my tiny – sorry, “Medium” tub, I wandered down to the Lough Shore to enjoy it, but sadly that wasn’t possible either as it was almost, but not quite, completely tasteless. I believe the brand was Mullen’s.

We called to go to the park after school. they work at playpark and it was closed, so took an ice for the children and a coffee for me and went for a walk. it was really busy, but the girls were friendly and service was pretty fast. the toffee ice cream was delicious. we call back when the park opens again.

I have my children for a today and regret to give this place, my money personal is not pleasant I saw the people differently charged for the same. 50ps only people will never go again

The coffee shop is near a playground and on the shore of Belfast Lough. Not over impressed by the coffee but plenty of other choices and some decent food choices
