Flanagan's on the Lake
Ballina
23/03/2026: Incredibly delicious food, large portions, friendly waiters.
22/03/2026: Excellent food. We arrived with a reservation as it was recommended to make reservation. Food was delicious, servers were friendly and helpful but simply too busy. Drinks arrived after food, no one had time to come back to ask if food was okay , nor to ask if we wanted more drinks, dessert or tea & coffee. Again server was super friendly but too busy. We were seated indoor but the external emergency exit was open to allow staff serve outdoor, it made the dining area uncomfortably cold. We asked if door could be closed but server explained she would close as soon as possible but this didn’t happen while we dined. I would visit again as the food was really good but I would not tolerate the same uncomfortable seating.

Boruma Gastro Bar
Ballina
19/08/2025: We had lunch in the his bar and found it average at best, we were upstairs over looking the bridge, the view was good but the seating was old, with damaged tember and very uncomfortable, this bar/restaurant would need to take advantage of their location and give the place a well needed makeover.
The staff were very friendly and the food was fresh.
06/07/2025: Food was terrible, worst burger I ever had

Mills Bar
Ballina
13/07/2025: Staff have a lot to learn in terms of customer service .
Also cleanliness of the glasses and cutlery left alot to be desired. I picked up 5 glasses before I got one that was reasonable clean. I opted to drink from the bottle instead.
Cutlery was wet or had water marks on it and hadn't been polished.
These are basic things.
Food was OK but its just microwavable food.

Wild Fig Foods
Ballina
10/08/2025: Homemade, delicious cakes and brownies that can be purchased by the slice. We dropped by the Milk Market expecting the normal food vendors but forgot only on Sat. Were disappointed until we found this cafe. Carrot and black forest cakes enjoyed as takeaway after dinner. Wow, best we've ever had here. Highly recommend!!!
