“This was my first visit and I was very impressed! Plenty of car parking spaces and not too far of a walk to the Theatre. Lovely Bar area and very efficient friendly Bar Staff. The seats were very comfortable and quite a large stage so everyone had a great view. I didn’t notice any obstructions anywhere in the Theatre. Very friendly staff from start to finish to guide you to your seat. Top marks to all, we had a great experience!”

“Very pleasant and extremely helpful staff. The girl was able to judge my son's size for school uniform which ment most items he tried on first time were the perfect fit. She was also able to make suggestions and advise on items which weren't necessary so no unnecessary money was spent. She explained I could always purchase at a later date if I found I needed to. She made my uniform shopping experience so much easier. Very impressed.”

“Have been renting a room for almost 9 months to see medical clients. Claire makes the experience of booking very smooth and professional. Cannot fault the venue but some people have complained that it can be difficult to find in the dark. Plan to continue using it for the near and distant future.”

“Great Family Sunday here today. Interesting story from the Bible and tea with cakes at the end. Sunday School every Sunday at 2.30pm”

“Had my daughters 10th birthday in the inflatable-park in Belfast couldn't recommend enough they had an absolute ball, service was great and was lovely to have a designated area to watch, unlimited drinks was a plus and the amount of food was amazing was also very tasty pizza chicken dippers and chips was a hit. Portion size was plentiful and the staff kept checking in on us which I thought was brilliant compared to other places your put in a room and forgot about. Great value for money will definitely be back. Great customer service all round brilliant experience”

“Took my son to Next at Abbeycentre to buy a suit for a day at the races. Great selection of styles. Good fitting rooms, spacious shop. Best of all was the service from a lady named Lyndsay. Despite being very busy, nothing was too much trouble for her as she advised my son on style, fit and even contacted another branch when his size wasn’t in stock. Highly recommended.”

“My son is almost 6 and this is one of the only soft play places that he doesn’t get bored of as he’s literally grown out of most of them. Last week him and another kid accidentally bumped into each other and he bust his wee lip. Despite being extremely busy the staff noticed right away and were very kind, immediately getting him an ice pack, an ice pop and a voucher for a free visit next time. Well done on the friendly service and welcoming playplace you’ve made for local children. ☺️☺️☺️”
