    Prior to yesterday had never heard of this place. Glad I came across it on Google. Slightly remote, about 7/8 miles from Portadown, a lovely wee bar, good sized restaurant, open kitchen, friendly staff, a good pint of Guinness and really hearty tasty food. Really worth the trip out, the burger, chips, chicken sizzler and garlic cubes were all delicious. Empty plates all round. Would definitely recommend.

    Went for lunch on a Sunday . Lovely place . Main course was gorgeous for both . Tried desert but have to say guys you need to look at having a nicer coffee . Thought it wasn’t great taste . The desert we chose was the lemon roulade and thought it was a little like a sorta “ bought in taste “ as opposed to that lovely baked option that I had sorta hoped for . Might help as we both said if we went back we wouldn’t go for desert or coffee if we thought it was the same . Maybe we picked the wrong desert but just mentoring it to help .

    The best place for miles around. Long established family business now owned by the son John. Remembered me after 6 years since my last visit from across the water. Great homely food and atmosphere. (The champ was grand).

    First impressions are lasting and after my first visit today I will have no hesitation in returning. From the moment we stepped through the door we were made to feel like regulars. I ordered ribeye steak, cooked very rare (blue). My wife ordered the chicken stack. This must be the only time my steak has been cooked to my liking. It was excellent, as were the chunky chips, onion rings and mushroom. The peppered sauce was really nice too, not too peppery and neither devoid of taste. My wife's meal consisted of two fillets if chicken, served on a sumptuous bed of champagne and again with the peppered sauce. Again this for her was right on point. Dessert was one cheese cake and a sticky toffee pudding. The portions were generous and again really nice. When you have a first visit to a restaurant which goes so well you will definitely want to go back. A nice wee bonus was being able to pay a personal compliment to the chef and his team on the way out. Often times patrons never get a chance to tell them how much we appreciate their efforts. Thanks so much to all at Head O The Road.

    Best meal we've had in a long time! We have dined at The Head O The Road twice and both times have surpassed expectations. Serving Outcider on tap and a menu with something to suit everyone. One of my favourites!
