Lizzie Drakes - Lisburn

We decided to go to Lizzie Drakes for our lunch to celebrate our 20yr anniversary,as we have never eaten there before,despite living in the area. We had checked the reviews and all but one,were very promising. Some mentioned about the smoke from the open fireplace,and I must admit,at times it was smokey,but we found that this fitted in perfectly with the setting and it in no way annoyed us,in fact it was the complete opposite. I decided to have a starter and went for the soup of the day(vegetable) and it was absolutely delicious. Linda decided to opt for an omelette as her main,which was amazing. Our son had a burger,which he really enjoyed. I,myself opted for the sirloin steak and peppered sauce. The steak was cooked to perfection and the sauce delicious. Desserts were to die for. As for the service we received, it was fast,pleasant and very very efficient. As a family we really enjoyed our experience at Lizzie Drakes and will most definitely be returning to enjoy more meals and support a locally run business

The food is excellent and the Mixed Grill is legendary. Big problems with the open fire in the middle of the bar. It's lovely when it's burning hot but when it is topped up with fuel it spews a lot of smoke out into the bar. Not very pleasant or healthy. Really needs to be sorted.

This is my second time at this pub , first time steak wasn't cooked right , sent it back to be sent another one , so we decided to give it a try again , not a good decision. First ordered duck rolls for starter , they brought them out and there was no duck. I asked the bar man who wasn't very helpful telling me he doesn't know while shrugging his shoulders . When I asked someone else they came back to tell me they were vegetable rolls , I asked for duck , he told me there was none . So they decided to try and sell us Iceland vegetable rolls without us noticing. Then to the mains my steak was OK but my partners chicken was literally dry as a bone . Will definitely not be back. Customer service very poor , no one came near us to ask was it OK etc . Absolutely terrible service and food .

What a hidden gem this wee spot is,me&my partner went out for my birthday meal and drinks couldn't recommend a better place the food was beautiful and amazingly priced.

Can't recommend this place enough! Food is amazing service is excellent. Love the quirkiness of the building.
