CARRICK-A-REDE BAR
The stunning north coast in County Antrim is home to some of the most iconic tourist
attractions in Northern Ireland- among them the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge in the
village of Ballintoy.
The bar of the same name is a warm, cosy gastropub with an open turf fire- perfect
for lunch or dinner 7 days a week. Bridge crossing optional ��
Local suppliers include Apperly’s Butchers, Limavady who make custom-made
sausages for them. The fish and shellfish are from Morton’s Family Fish and the
vegetables are from Scotts of Coleraine. Ballyrashane supply the dairy produce
while eggs come from local farmers. They get some bread from Pappies Bakery and
they make their own wheaten.
Expect dishes such as braised rib of beef with roast garlic and thyme mash and
monkfish and prawn curry. The seafood chowder is stonking as are the fish and
chips. There are local beers from Lacada Brewery. Lacada have just created their
own house draught beer. It is called “Don’t Look Down” with the font featuring an
image of the rope bridge. Hence the name. It’s a hazy pale ale. We love!
Do try the cocktails.
Genuine hospitality at its best is their ethos. Check it out.
