Pot Belly Restaurant
Review
For couples seeking a memorable meal with real soul, the team at the Pot Belly Restaurant offers a wonderfully atmospheric escape beside the flowing River Bann. Its beautiful old mill setting gives every visit a sense of history, while the interior brings a relaxed, contemporary charm that makes dinner feel special without ever feeling forced. From the moment you pull in, the building has a rare, almost South American elegance, the kind of place that seems made for slow conversations, good wine and shared plates. After many years of recognition and loyal custom, Philip Douglas now guides this much-loved restaurant with the steady confidence of someone who truly understands it. The cooking is warm-hearted, satisfying and beautifully judged, allowing the produce and flavours to speak for themselves. For a romantic evening in Northern Ireland, Pot Belly is a delicious reminder that the simplest pleasures are often the ones remembered longest.
