Champion Stakes - Lifford

The food was excellent, the staff was very friendly and more than helpful, the only case was the race after 3 races due to the weather conditions cancelled, otherwise great night def in later spring again...

Although it was a fun experience for a party, there were several mistakes made at this restaurant. Where do I even begin: I requested sauce on the side, but it came on the chicken and was undercooked. I had to ask for water four times. I ordered a small bottle of wine and received a full bottle without a glass (and it was charged for on the bill). When I asked for an espresso, I was brought a teapot of coffee without a cup. Our dessert never arrived. Starters appeared after other tables had already received their mains (even though we ordered at the same time). The Risotto was overly cheesy and lacked flavor. One table had to send back their chicken because it was undercooked and pink. Some of the staff were friendly, but one server seemed completely unenthused, not even cracking a smile. The only positive aspect was the humor we found in the disastrous service - we joked that a chicken fillet roll from a gas station would have been a better choice! Proceed with caution.

We dined here in August 2015 and found the food to be delicious. The only issue we encountered was the slow service, as there seemed to be a shortage of staff working in the restaurant. However, the few staff members who were working did their best to ensure that the food was served hot and tasty. If there were more staff members, the experience would have been perfect.

Eight of us had reservations at this restaurant. Initially, we were given two separate tables for four and requested to sit together. We were informed that the menu was a fixed menu for €35, which was fine for us for the evening. However, the menu had limited choices. We all placed our orders, but the starters were mediocre. When my steak arrived, it was tough and unpleasant. I asked to send it back and choose something else, but I was told that I had to eat it because I had ordered it. Despite my refusal, I was pressured five times by three different staff members to order something else and pay for the meal. The situation escalated to the point where my husband and I were taken to an office by the owner and a guard, but we refused to enter. Eventually, I had to pay €10 for the entrance fee and €5 for the soup I had, while everyone else paid for their meals. I was left feeling horrified and mistreated, and I will never be returning to this restaurant. I have shared my terrible experience with friends and family. 0/10.

Definately the worst food in my life . The only pity is the staff are friendly coudnt be more helpful and approachable . Chicken tasted like fish chips cold no taste absolutely desperate Avoid the food here . I also went to takeaway on last trip and it was terrible and decided restaurant may be nicer . All food out of same kitchen worst ever
