Walked in on a Saturday without a booking, and the manager squeezed us in. Staff were really on it, super attentive. Food was solid, portions are big. Nice spot.

Loved the vibe here! The staff were so welcoming, really made it feel like a cosy catch-up spot. We shared the whole seabream, perfect for a group. Just a bit pricey for the size, but the friendly service made up for it.

Came with a group before a show. The pre-theatre menu was a solid choice. The steak was cooked just right, and the spaghetti portion was huge &ndash; we all left absolutely stuffed.

Been coming here for years. The early menu is the main reason - it&#39;s a solid deal and they&#39;ve always been good about it. Just a reliable spot.

The chicken burrito was a proper feed. Really liked the vibe in here, it&#39;s got this nice, relaxed feel with comfy seating. The chicken itself was spot on, well-seasoned and fresh. Big portion too, no complaints.

The scallops were lovely, and the chicken was really tasty. My only note is that the sticky toffee pudding was a bit too large for one person after a full meal. Still, a very nice dinner.

Been coming here for years, and the scones are always spot on. Just had a coffee and one this morning, same comfy armchair by the window. It&#39;s the consistency that keeps me coming back.

The Korean chicken starter was fantastic. The lamb ragu and chicken main were great too, but that cr&egrave;me br&ucirc;l&eacute;e was the real star!

Classic Belfast pub, good for sports. Plenty of screens, atmosphere is relaxed. The Guinness pour was spot on, which is important. A solid, no-fuss spot for a match.

Came here for the game, loads of screens so you won&#39;t miss a thing. It&#39;s a big space, didn&#39;t feel crowded even when it got busy. Door guys were sound. Solid spot for a pint and the match.

The pre-theatre menu was a great choice for our group. The manager greeted us warmly, and the food was delicious. I highly recommend this place for a lovely dining experience!

Been here a few times now. The food is always top quality, really well prepared. Connor and the team are friendly, make you feel welcome. Good spot for a reliable meal.

The goat cheese salad and bacon brie sandwich were a solid quick lunch. Fresh ingredients, no complaints. Good spot for a fast bite when you&rsquo;re in a rush. 👍

we&rsquo;ve been to quite a few places but have to say, that with out a doubt it&rsquo;s the best breakfast we&rsquo;ve ever had. great value for money,the breakfast was cooked perfectly and the service was excellent. the decor was fantastic. we fully recommend this place as a must go to if you in Belfast and the menu is really good as well.

The Sunday roast beef was really good, came with all the trimmings and proper gravy. The seasonal veg were a nice addition. The whole place just feels really cosy and relaxed, which I liked.

Friday steak night is a solid shout for a group. The vibe&#39;s relaxed, perfect for catching up. Staff were really friendly, which always helps. The steak was good, and honestly, the price for a Friday night was a nice surprise. Bangor has a winner here.

Lovely little spot by the harbour. I was there on a sunny morning and the sea view was just perfect with my coffee. The staff were super friendly, too.

Got the window seat overlooking the beach, which was a nice touch. The chicken and leek pie was the real star though&mdash;the mash was so creamy and the pastry was spot on. Really enjoyed that.

Christmas lunch was lovely. I&#39;m not vegetarian but tried the mushroom wellington, really enjoyed it. Service was friendly and quick, even though it was packed.

Been back a few times, always solid. Had the monkfish and prawn curry special last night &ndash; it was surprisingly light but still really flavourful. The live music downstairs gives the place a proper buzz.

A really comfortable spot for a quiet meal. The service was just right &ndash; friendly and there when you needed it, but never hovering. Felt very relaxed the whole time.

The portions here are huge, you won&#39;t go hungry. Food&#39;s always solid.

Stevie was a real pro, knew the menu inside out. Made the whole evening run smoothly. Food was good, but it was his service that stood out.

The view over Strangford Lough to the Mournes is the main event here. Had a decent burger, but honestly, you&#39;re paying for that panorama. Just sat there with a pint for ages.

Service was spot on - attentive but never hovering. The sommelier&#39;s wine suggestion was a perfect match for the lamb.

Loved the vegan options here! The portions are huge and everything had so much flavour. The staff were really welcoming too, which made it a perfect spot to catch up with friends.

Stopped by for a late lunch. Service was quick and they were upfront about a drink not being chilled yet, which I appreciated.

The ingredients tasted so fresh, you could tell they were cooked just before serving. A lovely, healthy lunch after our tour.

As someone who watches what I eat, I really appreciate their vegan options. The vegan chocolate brownie ice cream was a nice treat. You can tell they use good ingredients, it tasted fresh and not overly sweet. A solid choice for a healthier dessert.

Decent veggie options here. The paneer tikka was solid, not too dry. Asked for extra spicy and they actually made it hot. Good for a casual meal.
