    Always a great experience here. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The food is awesome and the atmosphere is a wonderful throwback to the late 70' - 80's.

    Very nice clean place. The food was great and the service was quick.
    Our waitress was very pleasant and attentive even though the place was crowded. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a good hearty meal.

    One of my favourite places to go for comfort food. The menu has all the usual favourites and everything is freshly made.  Proper home cooked chips and wedges, lovely fresh veg and good sized portions. The best fry you will get anywhere,  great value for money and extremely tasty. There are seats downstairs and 2 separate parts upstairs,  AJs has expanded well over the years.  
    I have heard the homemade desserts are amazing but I've ways been too full after one course so never got around to trying them. Sometimes the staff can be a bit huffy if you ask for anything to be substituted especially on the fry but they will do it.
    If you're ever out this way AJs is the place to try.

    Stopped in on our way to Downpatrick this evening. Diner was very busy with no seating available downstairs. They said there was some seats available upstairs but upon noticing that one of our party was disabled they brought us to a small area away from the crowds coming in an out to wait for a table downstairs. A table became available after 5 minutes where we were seated and well looked after.
    Menu is extensive, something for everyone. Nothing fancy or fine dining, just good food and great sized portions. Everything under £10. Food arrived within 10 minutes. Prawn open sandwiches were huge. Chicken goujons had a light and delicious batter and roast beef dinner came with all the trimmings and extra gravy at no extra charge (unlike a lot of places these days).
    Overall, service was great and food was very well enjoyed.
    Free parking available in all the streets beside it.

    Went there for lunch today.

    Baked cod with vegetables and mashed potato.

    I asked for a mineral water and it came with a glass with ice as you'd expect but they also brought a slice of lemon on a plate which was a nice touch.

    Food was well priced. My total came to about £12.

    Service was really good. Staff there there are always really friendly and personable.

    Food was great, didn't have to wait long and was nicely cooked.

    Definitely be back. Just note that this place is always very busy at lunch and dinner times (a testament to how good the food is).
