Great atmosphere

Me and my partner loved it here when we visited Belfast last week, everything we ordered was so tasty and we could have ordered almost everything off the menu that’s how good it all sounded! Cute little restaurant but perfect for the setting!

Staff were friendly and helpful, and food was good and well presented. More of a nice cafe than a restaurant. Well spaced out seating.
