***********
Nestled along the coast between Carrickfergus Castle and the Gobbins Cliff Path, The Lighthouse Bistro is situated just off Victorian Whitehead's colourful promenade.
The Lighthouse Bistro is a small, cosy, award winning family run restaurant which makes everything from scratch including its own pasta, breads and smokes and pickles a range of local produce too. You can expect to find local cheeses, seafood, coffee and a range of meat dishes such as smoked pork belly and steaks on the menu. Enjoy music every Wednesday with Daryl McCabe during lunch service.
The Bistro holds various events throughout the year. Dates are announced here and via social media. We are unlicenced but you may bring a bottle!
Our menu is subject to change. We regularly have daily lunch and evening specials on offer.
