"First time here and I arrived after eight, not knowing they close at that time. However I was welcomed in by owner. I fancied two starters. I ordered crab claws with chilli jam, and prawn cocktail. Only to be told a minute or so later they had ran out. I settled for a portion of scampi. The starters came on a slate as a main. The five crab claws with chilli jam were very nice. A bit of wet lettuce and tomato let it down. Bit of Asian slaw would have lifted it. The scampi was really fresh and delicious with Marie rose sauce. Again a dash of Worcester sauce and asian slaw would have lifted it instead of wet lettuce. Two pieces of wheaten and butter came with it,and a small lemon slice. I ordered a coke float, but the can of coke was not chilled and the ice cream in glass was skimpy. But I was glad of a sit down and staff were excellent. At £13.50 it was a fair price. Menu needs a bit more tweaking, but I will go again."

"This was the best restaurant we visited during our trip to Northern Ireland. The food, service, and overall atmosphere were outstanding. The portions were generous and absolutely delicious. We indulged in BBQ wings drenched in sauce, a chicken and pulled pork burger, and seafood tagliatelle. Although I'm not a fan of mussels, I asked for them to be removed from my dish, and I was quickly offered a substitute fish. There was plenty of fish, and the sauce was delightful. The fresh chips and burger were devoured completely. We would have gladly returned every day if we had stayed longer. While waiting for our food, we enjoyed chatting with the friendly locals and looking at the amusing signs and decor around the bar. I believe there’s a larger dining area upstairs if needed. The company was wonderful, and the owner was cheerful and eager to assist us. We couldn’t recommend this place more highly. We’ll definitely be back next time to try the cheesecake and to have some fun with Jeff!"

"Wonderful food! I am not easily impressed, and have visited many restaurants in many countries Hunter’s Moon is up there with any of them. Vegetarian options often indicate the ethos of the restaurant, and the chef here easily made the grade. The choice was not wide, but what was missing in numbers was hugely compensated by the quality of the cooking. The flavours were sublime, and the helpings generous Food, glorious food indeed!"
