Kingfisher Bistro in Carlingford

Not even finished my starter and had to review, amazing! Best hot wings I have honestly ever had! Great service 5*****

Lovely meal. I had the cod. Delicious

Day 3 of our short Northern Ireland excursion: Had a lovely dinner at Kingfisher Bistro in Carlingford. Small, intimate gourmet restaurant with delicious food and friendly staff. We ordered a starter of leek and potato soup with a side of fresh baguette baked in a woodfire oven - yum! We ordered the Duo Duck and it was the best duck either of us ever had! A breast and a thigh, tender and not fatty, with the skin crispy and nicely seasoned, in a bed of baby green beans just cooked to crunchy tenderness, and a side of hearty mashed potatoes. Also ordered a sirloin steak cooked to medium rare perfection with a delectable peppercorn and mushroom cream sauce and a side of boiled baby potatoes seasoned with butter, parsley, and garlic. Topped dinner off by sharing a hazelnut brownie with vanilla ice cream - so good! Chock full of crushed hazelnuts, a touch of raspberries, and made with dark cocoa - delicious! Definitely recommend going there!

Good food but the portions are large especially the Starters. The decor is a bit dated.

We had a fabulous meal in this restaurant on Sunday evening. We had a variety of starters and all were very good. The fish of the day and the Monkfish main courses were generously portioned and delicious. Cheesecake and roulade desserts were a great finish to an excellent meal. Will definitely be back!

Outstanding service and the most enjoyable culinary experience a fantastic location. Coupled with a friendly atmosphere and courteous staff. A must for anyone visiting Carlinford Lough
