The menu is great. In fact, for a bistro it’s fantastic. It showed originality and class and was appropriately priced….If you are in the Dundrum/Newcastle area, The Maghera Inn is definitely worth a visit, if not just for its great seafood.

The Maghera Inn is a great place to visit when you need a break from your usual eatery. The food’s good, the atmosphere snug and inviting and the setting picture perfect, no matter what time of year you choose to visit Maghera, Co. Down.

My Guinness pie was spot on. Plenty of tasty beef and a really rich gravy…topped with a pastry that was light enough and crisp…this was the Inn’s Sunday menu and it was good wholesome grub. And after getting a look at their evening menu, I reckon I’ll be back for a taste of their venison and prune pie…

If Percy French had ever written about this pub, there’s only one title which would have fit: ‘The Star of the County Down’…The staff were excellent as usual, and the whole bar area as well as the outdoor area was kept spotless. This great pub cannot be overshadowed – even by the Mountains of Mourne.

The Maghera Inn oozes charm and character….it is a fabulous rural eatery providing quality traditional cuisine. The service is excellent, and the warm and welcoming environment makes for a perfect night out. We both vowed to return again soon.

There is nothing pretentious about The Maghera Inn. It just does the cosy country pub thing close to perfection.
