Suggestions for Dining and Drinking near Belfast

Nadine V. • August 8, 2019Great ambiance and beers on tap! Also the pizza place is great and everything is moderately cheap

Alexandra M. • January 24, 2018Best coffee place in Belfast. Great coffee, delicious brunches, friendly staff, good choice of music... it doesn’t get any better except that it is always so busy.

Nick B. • August 21, 2018I had the double cheeseburger which was great! The menu is simple and you know what you’re going to get! Highly recommended!

Jim P. • September 3, 2017Everything was very good. Crab claw starter was awesome, fish & chips was very good, and shrimp risotto was good. Very solid for dinner. We would return!

Şenol D. • October 5, 2016This is the best Irish pub in Belfast!

Andy M. • June 25, 2012Great for a pint of Guinness, but my tip: ask for the whiskey list. They have an excellent, expansive selection, most of which isn't on display behind the bar.

John K. • August 15, 2015So much gin. Try one of the gin and tonic suggestions on the menu they make with one of the dozens of gins they have from around the world.

Kate I. • October 13, 2014SO GOOD. Do the tasting menu with the wine paring and have your mind blown. OX is at the top of its game.

Mark W. • June 19, 2016The scampi has to be tried. Some of the best I've had.

Rachel L. • November 17, 2013Fantastic cocktail bar. With a small group? Try to grab one of the side rooms. Browse the book of cocktails. Order some delicious nibbles to go with your drinks.

Wendy V. • July 22, 2015Coffee, tea and pastry! You can pay what you feel it's worth in the Honesty Box. Nice view over the Docks

Mark G. • April 1, 2017Good value lunch menu. Bao buns, steamed and crispy dumplings, with a range of sides and large plates. Try the Son in Law crispy egg with chillies. Friendly staff.

Dáithí M. • January 28, 2023Amazing good. Very friendly staff.

Mai K. • August 9, 2014Formaggio caprese? (The goats cheese & rocket one anyway!) so delicious, best dine-in pizza in the city centre

Billy M. • September 21, 2012Pulled pork burrito bowl with the corn and the mild pico de gallo salsa, guacamole, cheese and sour cream. Don't forget the Cholula hot sauce!

Vanessa Z. • May 29, 2017Try 5 ciccetti to share: all divine.If you can't make your mind about the main (cos let's be honest- it all looks amazing) they'll let you get 2 pasta dishes- duck ragu &smoked chicken tortellini 😍😍

Felipe P. • March 16, 2016I ordered the lunch deal (£4,95): a 6" size pizza (any flavour) with a side salad (chicken caesar). The pizza was amazing, the salad was also very good. Great place. Really recommend the pizza.

Marta • June 27, 2018Incredible quesadillas, good choice of sauses. Nice that there are vegetarian options too. Liked the imported soda as well. Friendy staff and cool music 😊

Sean H. • May 19, 2016The selection of food made on site is awesome. They are also a quirky grocery store full of unusual but very tastey things

Dylan B. • January 4, 2017Great Vegetarian and Vegan choices! Try their fresh juices and their Hot Chocolate! Always good for a salad and does delicious soups and stews. Who can forget their amazing signature coffee blend!

Ather B. • September 2, 2015The best bar in Belfast (in my opinion) and as the name suggests, great Jazz music.

Martien B. • August 7, 2022Best thing is to make a reservation. If you haven't, maybe you can sit in the front at the unreserved seats. There are both good fish an veggie options. As for dessert: take the Banana Tarte Tatin.

Ryan N. • July 19, 2017Awesome atmosphere, an absolute must for anyone visiting Belfast

Thelma C. • March 18, 2015The ambience is great. The service was fantastic. We had 3 course meal. Food was outstanding. We had an amazing waiter. Was extremely helpful and chatty. Cocktails fabulous. Would def highly recommend

Larry G. • May 24, 2012The Glousterchire Old Spot pork belly with colcannon, parsnip aioli, apple sauce and parsnip crisps is to die for!

Golden B. • September 4, 2011Filet steak and sauteed prawns and mushrooms, absolutely delicious.

Whit M. • March 9, 2015Have a drink and enjoy the scent and warmth of the fireplace.

Gavan R. • February 7, 2016Recommend the Seared Scallops or Caramelised Onion Risotto Fritters for starter, and Fillet Of Halibut With Fondant Potato, Spinach, Smoked Chorizo & White Wine Tarragon Cream for main. 😋👍

s 3. • May 25, 2013Very well presented dishes. The sea trout was good. The asparagus deserves top marks... And the french fries (chips, really) are worth a special mention.

Mai K. • September 7, 2014A good spot for all sorts. Their lunch is great, their pints are fairly standard. Go for the atmosphere of old Belfast!
