French Rooms

County Antrim


Incorporating a homewares shop and gourmet deli counter, this French-themed emporium with zinc-topped tables is an especially good option for breakfast (croques monsieur and madame, crêpes, eggs royale, brioche bacon butty). Lunch and dinner choices span supreme of guinea fowl to cajun-seasoned sea bass.

At research time luxury B&B rooms were being constructed.
