About

Enjoy Great Food at Dobbins Inn Hotel, Carrickfergus

With over 800 years of history, Dobbins Inn sits right on the High Street in the heart of Carrickfergus. Step inside and you’ll find a warm, welcoming atmosphere – from the cosy log fire in our Bar Lounge to the quality service and top-class food in our Landings Restaurant.

Our menu blends much-loved traditional Irish dishes with modern European favourites, so there’s something to suit every taste. The Landings Restaurant is ideal for a relaxed lunch, a special dinner, or a group celebration, with space for up to 70 guests.

For something more casual, the Bar Lounge is perfect for meeting friends, watching live sport, or enjoying a pint of Guinness by the fire.

From May to September, our dog-friendly Beer Garden offers outdoor dining and drinks – a great spot for sunny days.

And don’t miss our popular breakfasts, from hearty full Irish plates to lighter, healthier choices.

At Dobbins Inn, history, hospitality, and great food come together.
