Probably one of the best takeaway establishments in Ballymena where the food is very good all the time. I buy from this takeaway maybe a couple of times each month and love the variety and flavour of the kebabs especially!

There are many Chinese restaurants around Ballymena and I guess everyone has their favourite. I've been buying from the takeaway part of this one for a couple of years now and I haven't been disappointed!

Had lunch here! Would I go back? No! Why would I? I can't think of a reason - certainly not the food! Maybe it's better in the evenings - I'll never know!

Yeah 4 stars! But it's the Hilton - professional but impersonal. Stayed here many times and everything has been good - but I have to pay extra for the hotel internet! Come on Hilton - move with the times!

Staying in the hotel for the weekend, and what a surprise! It's a real little gem - spotlessly clean, with a very attentive staff, fantastic food in the restaurant (and the pub grub looks great too), and what decor! There is antique furniture everywhere - each room is individual ( we have a 4 poster bed!) The only problem is that it is pouring rain outside otherwise a walk along the main street would be nice. Can see the ferry coming and going from our bedroom. This is lovely!

This is one of the busiest weekends of the year and the restaurant here is buzzing. Very friendly ambience, attentive waiting staff and really good food. and the evening is just beginning! Well done York for helping me to get off to a good start.

I’ve eaten here twice in the last few weeks, using the Tapas menu, and I have been impressed. The seafood chowder is excellent, prices are sensible, the staff are friendly and attentive, a relaxing ambience and a superb view – what more is needed? I believe the car park can become a little rowdy but I have only a good experience of this restauarant/bar.

Was looking forward to a mid-week break on a special deal in this hotel. What a disappointment! Dobbins markets itself on a homely atmosphere, good food and good craic. Well, the food was dreadful (without doubt, the worst that I have ever experienced), I didn’t notice any craic other than a drunken recital of ‘Happy Birthday’ and the homely atmosphere – well, I didn’t notice it. I had been warned about Dobbins but I didn’t take heed of the warning! Big mistake! Don’t say that YOU haven’t been warned!!!!!

Excellent starter (roast parsnip veloute) – I’d come back for this! Lovely ambience, friendly staff, I’m looking forward to the main course! Just had it – assiette of seafood – just fantastic. OK, if you haven’t been here, it’s time to come. The place is buzzing! I’ll be back!

Spent 4 nights residential here at the beginning of August. Wonderful! I think I must have met every member of the staff and, without exception, they were friendly and obliging. The ambience was relaxed, laid back, but efficient. Room was great! I’ll definitely be back.
