Lakeside Bistro

The Lakeside Bistro is situated just off the main road as you drive from Moira to Netherseal. The car park is a good size, due to the fact that it also supplies a fishing lake, as well as the restaurant. This provides a picturesque backdrop to the restaurant, which overlooks the majority of the lake. The Lakeside Bistro is a popular place and as it is not huge in size, it’s a good idea to book, even during the week. The staff are warm and friendly, which adds to its popularity, some people have a meal here every weekend! The menu has expanded of late for Sunday lunches, offering other dishes, as well as the always popular roast dinners; with the Venison Pie being my particular favourite. Most of the dinners come in two portion sizes too, standard and for slightly less money, a portion with diners with a smaller appetite. The food won’t break through any culinary boundaries for inventiveness, but it is tasty straightforward food at a reasonable price.
