Barholm The Ferry Port Cafe - Ards

Very tasty menu, service speedy and very friendly. As mentioned in title, situated ideally. To watch tooing and froing of the Strangford ferry, and across to Strangford, and the Lough, especially on sunny days, when there are outside tables.

It's got a fantastic setting but apart from the frys the food is of a basic standard and service is very slow. There is so much more can be done with the property. The don't do traybakes and only small cups of coffee which you've...either drank or has gone cold by the time your food arrives.

An evening with a friend and six children between us. the children were thrilled when we crossed with the ferry of strangford and this building was the first thing we discovered at the horizon when we approached portaferry! had a large room with doubles and five single beds! not much space, but cozy and clean, and good value for money. we had the bathroom next to the room all to us with shower, wc and washbasin, all impeccably clean. the breakfast next morning (which was included in the price) we were a short walk to the restaurant, also in the possession of the same mannes. we were able to choose any item from the breakfast together with juice, tea and coffee. it was an breakfast of the champions and everyone was thrilled by their choices from pancakes and speck to the full Irish frey, and a vegetarian frit was also delicious. the owner was exceptionally courteous, pleasant and welcoming. overall a first-class experience and we will definitely be back!

We were overnight. the place is great with a seperate lounge and a pool room. our room although tight as it was sleeping 5 it was clean and comfortable. our hosts were friendly and attentive. the breakfast was delicious with nothing too much annoying! a lot of choice would definitely stay here again. the picture is our view during the breakfast!

Stayed 2 nights BB!! Utterly faultless. Breakfast is 10/10.. staff wonderful couldn't recommend enough.. Even offered us a late check out free as the driver was a little delicate that morning of departure..
