Coffee house in Belfast

“We had the chowder and the spicy peanut eggs and the food was so delicious. The cafe is cute and cozy.”

“Christmas lunch for 18 people! Delicious, prompt, hot and very generous servings. Really lovely desserts too. All looked so nicely presented as well as yummy. Congratulations and thank you to the chef and table staff on a great lunch for us!”

“We have been going here 10 years now and we love it,friendly staff..quick..always clean and presentable! The food is outstanding for the price..honestly I don't think you will find better value!”

“A lovely Breakfast bap this morning.”

“Great place for good coffee, nice food and friendly service. As with most places, if the service is good, the coffee shop is good. Well the staff here are excellent and provide service with a smile! Side note: Music was at perfect volume, you can actually hear yourself think and relax.”

“Can only be described as the best coffee in Belfast. Nestles away in a small pay by card only kiosk directly facing city hall. Coffee is unique nordic style, produced in environmentally friendly recyclable materials. Definitely worth a visit!”

“Lovely owner gave us some great chat and the coffee is v good too”

“I love this place. Its always very busy and the atmosphere is buzzing. Great choice of food any time of the day. The staff are very welcoming and are always cheerful and helpful. Its a great place for a meal celebration business meeting or just for a coffee and a chat..”

“Great wee place, tasty food with reasonable prices, contemporary style and feel, great service, friendly staff. Highly recommend!”

“Lovely lunch today and the staff were honestly the nicest kindest people. I randomly asked what the dressing on the salad was because it was so nice and 5 minutes after the man told me what it was he came out with a pot of it that I could take away. Didn’t have to do that but was lovely. Great customer service and lovely staff”

“Delicious coffee! My husband and I go here once a week and consistently get the smoothest oat milk cappuccinos. ☕️ The cinnamon bun and tray bakes are a lovely treat. Would recommend Oliver’s as the best coffee shop on Belmont Road!”

“UPDATE: I went back two more times after my first review! The food is excellent and fresh. The pancakes are so good I braved a rainstorm to walk to the place! Previos reviewL Lovely place with great menu and exemplary service! I had an issue with my credit card and Gabriel, one of the owners, could not have been kinder or more helpful. Great combination of fine food, reasonable prices, and lovely staff.”

“I’ve been looking for a waffle place in Belfast and just recently discovered Cafe Mauds. Their waffle is by far the best I have tried in belfast. My favourite in their menu is the banana and toffee waffle. The banana balances out the sweetness of the toffee and I think they are a perfect combination. Definitely recommending place to those looking for a good dessert place.”

“One of my favorite things about this Nero coffee shop is the positive energy. As soon as you walk in, you're greeted with a warm and cozy atmosphere that's perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. The staff are incredibly welcoming and always eager to make your day better. One feature that I particularly love is the inspiring cards located near the cashier. They change daily and never fail to lift up your spirits. It's such a small detail, but one that makes a big impact. It's just another example of how this coffee shop goes above and beyond to create an uplifting and supportive environment for its customers. I tried carrot cake with cream so yummy”

“Food beaut .... staff friendly .... spacious.... loads different tea options.... scones are delicious.... reasonably priced .... plus they have a shop in the restaurant to buy teabags or coffee teapots etc”

“Used Clements as a base for a group meeting. Guys in the shop were fantastic and went out of their way to facilitate us and to make us welcome. I only had water, but everyone else commented on the coffee. Great selection of scones and other treats. Highly recommended.”

“Great food. Large portions, at least by my standards. A little on the pricey side to be honest. A tip: if you are having tea one pot is more than enough for three cups and it'll save you money to have one tea but three cups, assuming that this is allowed. Varied selection on the menu and friendly staff make this an excellent cafe. I'd visit again. Recommended!”

“Absolutely love the newly reopened Hilden Brewery -Threads cafe. The food is superb and they are open on Sundays too. So excited to have this venue on our doorstep again serving great food and drinks.”

“Very good range of traditional food from breakfast to lunch and brunch options. Great staff with a polite and helpful approach. We have been coming here for years and have never been disappointed. Best scones can be found here along with some amazing desserts. Highly recommended as very good for all ages.”

“Such a lovely place. Everything was so beautiful, good and cosy. The food was spectacular. All the waitress were so attentive and nice specially Joanna who was so proactive and friendly. We really recomend going and have breakfast there :)”

“This is a lovely cafe with a good amount of drinks and food on offer. I got a raspberry and white chocolate scone which was very fresh and tasty. My friend got a ham and cheese croissant which she enjoyed. Staff were very friendly and despite it being quite busy we were served quickly and with a smile. First time here and will definitely be back.”

“Great staff.. .very clean and tables clear asap...”

“Great food and lovely coffee, there are some very good cafes on the Ormeau Road and District is right up there with the best. Highly recommend the avocado BLT and poached eggs n bacon on sourdough!”

“It has the Best latte in town..always a pleasure to sit down for a cuppa after a long walk”

“I don’t come to Northern Ireland very often but when I do I always park in Lisburn. My colleagues recommended The Cardan and I must say I have not been disappointed. The food is absolutely amazing, well cooked and excellently presented. From the moment I walk in I am made to feel welcome. Something you don’t get from a lot of places. If I was to recommend anywhere to eat and drink it would be The Cardan. Fantastic place to meet, eat and drink. Thank you to all the management and staff for making this an ideal venue.”

“Brilliant coffee shop, staff are lovely, I'd strongly recommend the chicken flatbread ☺️”

“I want to post this review about holywood neros and how amazing the manager is he is clearly very passionate about his job and very warm and welcoming with excellent customer service clearly an asset to the company he asked how I was and I informed him my granny had died. He was very sympathetic and courteous with genuine interest behind it. Great guy with big future”

“Had a lovely breakfast here. Came just as it opened so was very quiet. Staff were friendly. Bit chilly upstairs (just opened obviously) but then they lit the log burner for us.”

“Lovely feel to this place, service is efficient and friendly. I was surprised at the selection of savoury nibbles on selection, and was drawn to the beetroot wrap - it was recommended to be served warm by the staff, and it was delicious! The outdoor seating and our current spell of good weather certainly makes you feel that your sitting somewhere is Europe!”

“I have visited here on a number of occasions and the quality of the food and also the coffee is always excellent. Whether getting something to eat off the menu or else a scone or traybake etc from the counter, it is always great. Staff are friendly and the atmosphere is always good. Would highly recommend.”
