After many mediocre coffees, had more or less ruled Sprucefield out of coffee venues, but today looked at small venue in foyer, serving breakers of coffee that looked more acceptable, was pleased to find yes hot and tasting like coffee, the cheese scones were tasty and very fresh. Different staff maybe, better training, whatever, was all good at last.

Called in to do a weekly shop, but only bought essentials. Fruit and veg dreadfully poor quality and little choice. Meat cabinets pretty much the same. Sad to say I went on to tesco!!

The first waitress, long dark hair and swarthy skin, came over and took the order which arrived promptly.I requested skimmed milk but semi skimmed arrived as apparently they donât do skimmed milk! Pity the waitress didnât know! My scrambled eggs were swimming in water and were so close to white they looked like porridge. The second waitress was so helpful and pleasant and took them away to remove the water. They returned just the same so the waitress offered to drain them herself. She obviously did her best but they still had water in them. Completely tasteless! However the other three meals were very good with no complaints.I watched the first waitress look at our empty plates and didnât bother to clear the table, leaving it for the next available waitress. This same waitress sat and chatted with a customer while my friend stood waiting to order afternoon tea. She ignored my friend, let her stand about and only acknowledged her when I approached. Not much work in this woman and personality minus! Lucky the rest of the staff were lovely.Thank you for your feedback.We pride ourselves on the quality of our coffee. In order that the natural fats in milk are not burned during the process of heating/ frothing milk, it is imperative that only semi and full fat milk are used to ensure quality. We do this under the advise from the roastary from which our coffee beans are harvested and supplied. E.g. Skinny Latte (semi skimmed milk)Latte (Full fat) We apologise for the misunderstanding, but hope we have provided more clarity for you surrounding this issue. We are sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your scrambled eggs. The next time you visit please make yourself known and we will aim to provide you with breakfast on the house.As for our waitresses, in order to ensure the smooth running of the tea room, each one, whilst perhaps unbeknownst to our customers is playing a different role. For example one will be responsible for orders, another for drinks and cutlery, another for clearing tables and so forth. Each one will endeavour to see to your needs within their role as quickly as possible.With regards to your final comments, as well as being a Tea Room, our business has a great number of patrons who become more than simply an order to us. it is not uncommon for our staff to briefly chat to such patrons, as a matter of fact, we feel it is an important part of their job. We trust that it is evident that we are a small family business who value a personable approach.Finally should you wish to book an Afternoon Tea this must be booked in advance by telephoning 02892638099 or by booking at the till area located near the entrance. Regards,Team Ashvale

I just don't understand the reviews. I eat out a lot, plenty of trips to Belfast, London and elsewhere, and I enjoy a burger as much as a tasting menu.Bar Retro is part of the great Plough Group, and the offer here is simple, honest and well done.I have had wonderful family breakfasts (brilliant dry cured bacon), best burgers in the area (particularly the one with the dry cured bacon in it!), scones the size of a batch loaf, fish finger sarnies, Caesar salads (actually, about as far from a genuine Caesar salad as you could get, but theirs is a great guilty pleasure with about 1000 calories)What's not to like here? The place is full of young Mums buzzing away, retirees lingering over a cup of tea for half the morning and enjoying the free papers ( that's us, sometimes!), very important people in a hurry to do something important, students scoffing scones whilst being served by their class mates. The place is a lovely spot to spend a bit of time.

This is a new coffee shop in the heart of Newry City!Ethical and delicious! The profits all go to third world charities overseen by the drop in ministries. A fantastic space, large and open, with comfy seating and a tasty selection of traybakes and scones on offer, I've had the tomato soup and panini and it was fantastic. I highly recommend the Tin House for a great welcome and the most amazing coffee. My only issue is that it's too cheap!!!!

Whenever I am in Hillsborough for work I love visiting this place for lunch. They are always super friendly and the food is great and really good prices too. Today I had the cheddar, bacon and onion marmalade panini (a favourite of mine) and as usual it didnât disappoint. Definitely give this cute little cafe a try.

Situated at the top of the town in Hillsborough, it's a real treat whether you're visiting the local heritage, or just want some fabulous home cooking with a friendly atmosphere. This is the place to go!!!

Approximately 2 miles on the Dromore side from the centre of Hillsborough village, is the beautiful Mill Farm Deli and country apartments. With a beautiful outside dining area and a cottage barn style dining interior, Mill Farm is a piece of peace from breakfast and coffee catch-ups, to a tranquil evening restaurant. Delicious homemade, high quality and affordable food, with detail in presentation is very affordable here, for even the smallest budget. Watch out for the daily specials for that extra treat and enjoy the tranquility and great welcome.
