Originally a part of Dawson’s Department Store, Maxwell’s Café Bar was completed in 2002 and has since enjoyed success as a popular venue for locals and tourists alike.
Since opening, Maxwells has expanded to include a heated outdoor seating area and an open-air roof terrace, providing customers the opportunity to make the most of the summer months.
Here at Maxwells we strive to provide a relaxed, friendly atmosphere complemented by fine wines, great food and excellent service.

I can’t fault this place and I would definitely return. It was the busiest place we saw hence the reason we went inside. Would definitly return.

I had a great time at Maxwells! A friend and I visited when we still weren’t allowed to sit indoors (couple of weeks ago) so we sat on the roof… read more terrace and it was fabulous! Fully covered, with heaters for when it got a bit chilly, what is there to complain about? The food was delicious also, and we very much enjoyed our drinks (would very much recommend the cocktail pitchers). The service was good; the staff had it running like clockwork and were being very covid-conscious. It was a wonderful night out all round!
One thing to note: if you’re going to make the bathrooms a one in one out rule, then I’d suggest stopping groups of girls from going in all at once to take photos with each other. I didn’t care but others might.
