The Dock Cafe

I can recommend without reservation, this cafe I supposeI would describe a community based cafe. Served good strong coffee and cake and asked for a contribution for payment. A refreshing change. I applaud this community spirited establishment. Well done great helpful friendly staff.

Its was my 1st time here I was my son he had a hot chocolate and I had a tea and both had a tray bake each. It was really nice and a real lovely atmosphere also staff were very friendly before leaving we went into the wee prayer garden bit. I will definitely be back again.

Come in and you can get coffee some Pastries tea and some other stuff like water and sirup water. The system is donation based and you pay what you want. Staff are super friendly.. quite a unique experience Kid-friendliness: Books and some fun seats to sit in.

Love this place! The staff are superb & so friendly. They have comfy seating throughout & serve carmel squares, scones, brownies & loads more. They also have cold & hot drinks which aren't the best but there's a subway & coffee shop close by which you can usualy bring in if they don't supply it. There's lots of window seating & also outdoor benches which all have great views. The walls are covered in local artwork & photographs which personally makes it look quite cluttered & cheap but it's one of the ways they make money as they rely solely on donations depending on what customers feel their experience is worth. Cleverly there's PayPal codes on the tables & donation boxes scattered throughout saving you the awkwardness feeling like your being judged.

Stumbled across the Dock Cafe, and thought we'd pop in for a hot chocolate to warm us up. We were greeted at the door, by a very friendly volunteer explaining about the cafe and that it was all donation based. Which we weren't expecting at all... but every volunteer was so cheerful and very helpful. Such a great place to chill and watch the world go by. Keep doing what you're doing guys!

Amazing place! Really tasty coffee and pastry. The people working there are delightful, super friendly. It's a community cafe, meaning the food and drinks are not priced, so they work based on donations. Would highly recommend it.

I love it!!!! It’s my first time here… what a great idea! Staff are lovely and the food is delicious 10/10 !!!

Love this place. Its a hidden gem in belfast. A donations based cafe, just pay what you think you should. Amazing scones. Excellent coffee and friendly volunteers. Great for a quick pit stop and pick me up on your way to or from Titanic belfast.

A lovely community cafe. We stumbled upon it while exploring the Titanic Quarter and it was a really lovely experience. The donation box is a lovely idea to help support the community.

What a brilliant concept to pay what you choose, we had lovely cakes and tea and coffee and enjoyed the surroundings ahead of a visit to the Titanic.
