Having had a few bad experiences in the Glenowen many moons ago I was convinced to go back and try it by the wife. I'm glad she did. Completely refurbished and the food and drink was excellent. Staff couldn't have done enough and reasonably priced as well. We're within walking distance I'll definitely be back! *Review Edit* We've been back a load of times, its our new regular and have to give the management a huge kudos for the food, drink (The New Yorker) and the live music, Helter Skelter is outstanding!

I ordered the chicken stack. To charge £15 for a plate and what was given was pretty steep. There wasn't very much on the plate. A scoop of mash and then 3 mediocre goujons and a single small onion ring. The batter was really basic and would be similar to what I've made before in the house, could've been much better. Mash was great but when is mash not. The peppered sauce had too much cream or something in it to give it a bit of a weird almost sour taste. I was with a few friends and both the exact same issue. The menu isn't really great, there aren't any deals unless on Sunday I think it was. Most plates seem to cost around £15 and starters were £5. £20 isn't bad for 2 courses but I found out the hard way by thinking a dinner and a Guinness would've been suffice. I can't understand why they would decorate up the stairs and not the restaurant I can remember the same seats when I was and going in. It's old and could really do with getting renovated. I don't know if leaving the door open is the greatest idea to leave the doors open. Fly were all over the place and constantly having to swat them away from the food, not a great look. I think if you want nice food in a local restaurant you'd have to go to felons. Foods amazing and quite cheap.

First time in the Glenowen Inn, I had turkey and ham and it was lovely, very tasty along with super fast service and two pleasant well mannered girls serving. A relaxed atmosphere inside. Very busy place. Limited carpark spaces. Great place great food and excellent staff 5*****.

Me and my wife just order 2 x12oz sirloin steaks and they where 6oz at best and when I questioned paddy the manager he’s replied just leave then seriously they where very small and cool definitely not recommend this restaurant! it used to be great not any more

Great service from everyone, especially a lady, pitty I never got her name. She was an older lady in the crew. Excellent service from her. Wish I asked for her name.

Had prebooked for party of 10 which wasn't taken into account so had to wait considerable time for our food. Restaurant very cold most ladies had to eat with their coats on not just our company. toilets which were baltic were not very clean. Staff were pleasant and we did not let this ruin our Christmas outing but as I had organised the venue I was very disappointed

We looked at the Web reviews before we booked and they were very encouraging. What we found was very contradictory. The two dining areas were very dated, the carpet looked like something from the 60's, the toilets from the 50's. We sat in the dining area without a bar and there were far too many tables, again the decor was poor and while the waitress was very friendly and food great the waiting times were excessive. I was expecting to see a nice bar / restaurant area, but unfortunately this place has been lost in time and needs brought up to date. I would not be recommending it, but in the right hands it could be developed into a bright modern bar / restaurant.

Haven't been in here in yrs but I must say had good crac with some friends. And glad to see they have different beers to drink, instead of just Tennants 🍺🍺💪🍺

Food would be nice if you were in maghaberry. Only good expiernce was the staff

Called in without a booking on Sunday. Got seated without any bother. Very efficient helpful staff. Roast beef dinner was delicious and plentiful.Nice atmosphere in restaurant. Will be coming again for Sunday lunch.

As a party off eight we has a very good and positive experince, the staff looked after us very well. We had a selection off meals and as a group we all enjoyed our individual choice of meals. Would recommend the food and service to anyone.

Always great food here- really big portions and staff are friendly and quick Had soup, turkey and ham and cheesecake and it was all great even though we were a big party

Staff appeared to be extra patient compared to some other places Waiting time was lengthy but well worth the wait, food was exceptional

Staff friendly and very helpful. Food quality brilliant. Service fast. Highly recommend.

It was the best breakfast ever, plentiful and good quality produce.

Private work do. Lunch and pub quiz. Good craic. Thai green curry was lovely. Staff very pleasant. Quiz master very good. Nice staff bonding experience.

Was in on friday night just after 6, thought i was cutting it short as was in a rush. Had a 2 course meal for 2 and couple of drinks and out in an hour. Food was good and service was good too was checked on quite a few times which was reassuring if i hada had any problems or wanted anything else.

I had honey chilli chicken as a starter, I there was too much of the sauce and not enough chicken even for a starter. Saying that my main was lovely I had the usual, steak with peppercorn sauce, tobacco onions and champ. It was really nice. The service from the waitress was above and beyond. She was very helpful and dint rush us. Staff are very polite. We went in about 6pm on a Wednesday and it was quite quiet so not much of an atmosphere but I'd definitely be backand would recommend here. Not too dear and for the price we payed it was worth it.

Was dying with a hangover today and wanted some proper Sunday roast. My girl convinced me to go here for dinner, now I was sceptical to say the least but ypu know women once they've an idea you may as well go with it. I mean this genuinely I could not fault the dinner at all. The beef was unreal, spuds where perfect and the veg was amazing. The staff where very friendly ( actually decided a disagreement with me and my woman about the belfast area ) on point and not intrusive All in all I would highly recommend and definitely be back Oh also the Coors where right on the spot

Ome of the best spots for food on the road. Perfectly cooked with fast service. Staff were friendly and helpful. Couldn't recommend more highly. Well worth the 5 🌟

Fabulous tasty meal with excellent portions. Great staff and all delivered with that special Belfast humour. Was a terrible night, snowy and icy and yet the staff were on top form. Highly recommend this wonderful restaurant.

I was honoured to have a surprise Retirement event here for 50 + guests. The staff went out of their way to make this the most amazing night. 3 course meal, with plenty of choices. Couldn't complain about any course. Thank you all so much.

Food was nice.. asked for medium steak.. was well done.. and tiny for 18.99 couldn't believe it.. had mussels for starters again mussels tiny shells massive the sauce was nice though. Waitresses not very pleasant or attentive. Place in need of new decor.. won't be back and advise to steer clear.. better options around the area

Food was incredible. Sea food chowder was to die for and I'm not a massive sea food fan. Just took a notion to try something different & glad I did. Staff were so friendly and service was fast. Would definitely recommend. Plenty of options on kids menu too.

Food top quality service 4 and a half just 1 slight issues at the start but no issues after would recommend

Went for dinner start september it was beautiful. Went for dinner monday night not good at all. Food was luke warm. Brushetta was cold. Roast beef hot rest of dinner cold. Waited 40mins on desert ended up cancelling them. Waiter offered us them to take home. Got home apple crumble was raw. Waiting staff excellent. They aim to please but kitchen needs sorted. Been going to glenowen for yrs but wont be back

I am afraid I was totally disappointed. As we were keen to try it but the experience was far from enjoyable. After waiting for an hour on our meal one meal was lukewarm and the other meal was inedible as chicken stack was overcooked and very dry. Service extremely slow.

Nice staff, polite and on point. Good service and food is decent. Had a roast beef dinner which was fine.

First time dining in with new owners, soup was just about warm, bread roll was hot ( little half baked baguettes that you finish in the oven) personally I prefer a roll thats room temp, so the butter doesn't melt or wheaten bread. Roast of the day was gammon (delicious , with a honey glaze) tenderstem broccoli was rock hard !! Mash roasties carrots and gravy delicious , overall I don't think I'll be rushing back and I'm within walking distance to the restaurant, overall 6/10

Had Lasagne with garlic potatoes n salad was really tasty Highly recommended

Ordered Sunday dinner for delivery roast beef was so tender, great value for money and crunchy cheese cake was to die for, highly recommend ☺️

Food was nice but the place looked like it needed freshened up.

Good food and service and vert happy with the prices. It's only a short drive from much more expensive restaurants in the city centre. Took my parent's out for Sunday lunch and they were very happy with it.

Great place to eat out and socialize, the upstairs bar and restaurant is excellent and the food is fabulous, the downstairs bar is perfect for relaxation and you can order food if you desire. Quiet bar but also full of character with the local crowd who welcome all especially when tourists arrive. Great venue.

Food was delicious, staff were so brilliant and helpful and the prices were very reasonable. Amazing menu and one of the best gluten free menus you will find anywhere. 10/10
