After a very early busy morning my wife and I stopped off for Lunch. My wife took a pancake stack with bacon and maple syrup I opted for the Irish fry 2 coffees . Its the wee things that make a meal an experience. Warm friendly but not in your face staff. A cold Belfast day without asking offered a table by a radiator. After placing our order we went to the arts book shop browsed my wife bought 2 stone owls . Our meals arrived on warm plates with very large portions. A beautiful cooked meal lovely warm experience. It was just the hug we needed today . A truly 5 star lunch time
Wee cafe nice. Reasonable prices. Staff friendly. Gift shop has some lovely pieces for sale. Make great presents. Only thing is lot of English being spoken rather than Gaeilge.
café and bookstore with a Gaelic aroma. the building is a former deconsecrated church
nice venue for small events. had a great time watching a folk music/interpretative dance/acrobatic/cyr wheel performance. couldn't go to the cafe as it was reserved for a private event, but the bookstore had many interesting Irish themed items on sale.
My husband and I visited Belfast and Northern ireland over 2 weeks ago. We were staying in Ballymena we found it unfriendly and judgemental once they heard our southern Ireland accent or saw our Irish car. But we stopped here on the hop on hop off bus tour and it eas so nice people smiled at us we felt so comfortable here. A love girl on the cafe side was so nice to us and spoke to us . It was one of the highlights of our trip to Northern ireland.

Service was very slow indeed. We waited half an hour to be attended even though the cafeteria was nearly empty. One of the staff was quite rude and then she claimed that she didn’t know what a serviette was while another brought us a scone on a saucer with no butter or a knife.
Food was very very nice and service was fairly quick too!Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNot sure
