"As a microbiology graduate and having worked in the area of infection control advisory in the NHS throughout the UK I was appalled to witness the poor standard of cleaning around food in this establishment. Girl climbing into covered food display area to clean with a cloth which she was witnessed to have used on multiple surfaces and without wearing gloves. Then witnessed by quite a few customers, handling food within the display after handling soiled cloth. Then spraying disinfectant onto cloth within the display cabinet and excess spray going onto food. She was wearing no gloves nor head gear. All food should have been removed from said cabinet before any cleaning was instigated. I spoke to the manager who tried to tell me it was more hygienic not to wear gloves! In all my years in infection control I have never heard such nonsense. Disposable single use polythene gloves should be used in this situation not only to protect the food etc. but to protect the staff who should not be exposed to disinfectant on their hands or indeed in enclosed area like this display cabinet to their respiratory system. Very poor staff training here. If this is what happens in front of customers within the premises I can only imagine what goes on out of sight!"

Synge Byrne at Abbey Centre and Junction 1 in Antrim is my favorite choice when dining out. The staff always greets you with a smile and provides friendly and attentive service. Special shout-out to Gary at the Abbey Centre branch, who is a valuable asset to the company. Keep up the fantastic work. - Michael View menu

Could be cleaner as the soft seats were grubby with crumbs and one part had the leatherette ripped. Otherwise, a new employee was serving and he could not have been more warm and chatty. He was so nice. Wishing him well in his new job as he only started two weeks ago. Apart from that, the tea was lovely and brewed before it arrived not everywhere does that.

One of the staff was especially rude. I had ordered a meal for myself and my 4 year old. I was having a chat with my 4 year old, and the girl rudely interrupted to say, ‘she doesn’t get pasta with that’, despite the fact it was my meal, and I planned to give her some of mine and it was a personal conversation. Then when I was checking on my daughter in her seat, the girl rudely said ‘wait here for the coffee’. We won’t be returning until there is a change in the staff attitude.
