Belfast Baking Company is located on the main Gilnahirk road, near the Maxol station and beside Corries Farm Butchers. Parking is tight in the area but it's worth taking your time and popping by if you can. There's a few tables and chairs outside the branch to site and indulge in some treats and inside you'll find all the things you'd expect from the Northern Ireland Bakery of the year, 2016. The Cherryvalley branch is stylish, well stocked and the staff were very helpful. Samples were provided too of a few items and I'll be heading back soon for some of their pecan pies as a result. I opted for some veda, baps and a few patisserie items but to be honest I couldn't bought one of everything as the presentation was stunning! Items are well packaged for travel too - top points here! If you're in the area, make sure to pop in and have look around, you won't leave empty handed.

My fiance and I visited last night (Sunday) as I was lucky enough to win a voucher for a meal here!…read more We had been in the Point years ago and i have to say, I love what they've done with the place, it's been given a refurb and a face-lift outside and totally looks the part! My fiance, myself, and our little boy, made our way upstairs to the restaurant. Upon arrival we picked a table, got a highchair, and took some menus from the bar. As it was Sunday, they had a Sunday menu on, where you could pick from 1,2 nd 3 courses. I was tempted, but in the end I decided to go for the steak, and my partner went for the ribs. The gentleman came over to take our order, and brought us our drinks. The food came fairly quickly and my steak was done exactly how I'd asked. I opted for the sweet potato wedges, which were quite nice but very greasy. It also came with 2 onion rings which were great. My partner enjoyed his ribs but as a main course, there was very little meat on them making for too small a portion and he went home hungry. The biggest shocker of all however was when we got the bill. Drinks wise, we'd got a soft drink each, and I had a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon. The total for the drinks came to £12.95! The Coke and Diet Coke were £4 each! Absolute disgrace guys, sort this out! If I had known that was how much the soft drink was I'd have got another wine as it wasn't much more expensive. To be honest, although the food was fine, this in itself would genuinely put me off going back. Should be called Stroker's Halt!

Wasn't a fan of the Point in it's day, but of a dive, and the crowd could get a bit rough. They've really overhauled it, and turned it into a warm, welcoming and inviting place you would want to spend the evening it. We called in on a Wednesday night to watch the football and whilst not terribly busy there was a good few people just sitting having a drink with friends, reading, eating dinner, or watching the match. All very relaxed! The décor is rustic and they've knocked a few walls down, and shifted the bar around which has really opened up the place. I loved their big leather tub chairs and high tables with stools, clearly they have put a lot of money into this place. They have really upped their game in the drinks department, which was a pity for me as I only had a coffee, but it was fresh and tasty, so I was happy enough. The drinks menu was extensive, every type of gin, including my favourite Monkey 47 (potent stuff), they have also cocktails at reasonable prices and plenty of craft beers if you consider yourself a beer snob, and if you don't there are plenty of options for you too. We didn't have dinner either (we were really very dull last night). But after having a nosy at the menu we vowed to return and have a proper run at it! We were tempted to go up to other people and ask "mind if I take a photo of your burger??" they looked that good! But I don't think being a Yelper would have been a good enough reason, and we would definitely have looked crazy. So watch this space, updated review coming soon!

I've been wanting to try Wolfes for ages as I'd heard their Vegetarian menu's excellent - and it is. Burgers, salads, pasta, fajitas, jambalaya and wraps are available plus there are a range of sides suitable for Veggies too. So much selection I could hardly decide what to choose when I visited this evening, Thursday 21.04.2016. Eventually I opted for the Veggie Diner Burger which is a huge bean burger in a bun with smoked applewood cheese, BBQ sauce, peppadew peppers and shoestring onions. It was massive, tasty and greasy in a good way. Totally satisfying junk food and given that it came with a side for £10.99 was great value for money. Sides of chunky chips and garden salad were delish. Decor is traditional American diner style, although all the kid orientated dinosaur murals don't appeal to me, kids no doubt will love them. Staff were nice and service quick. All in all a pleasant visit and a good spot for quick, convenient, filling food with great Vegetarian options.

The coffee shop is very small and intimate, with the space for a few metal seats outside on the rare days in Belfast where the wind or rain has decided to not molest your face! The store do all the usual coffee fare, with cappuccinos, lattes, steamers and all the usual specialised teas. There is also a good range of food for a breakfast, lunch and dinner, with rich, hearty soups, well filled and reasonably priced sandwiches and lovely bagels, wraps and paninis.The staff are attentive and are always looking to offer you anything you may want or need. They also always do a daily special which is good to try something new at a reasonable price!

I've seen the sign out on the main road (which would be easy to miss) every day as it's on my commute to work and yet I've never been in. So this worked out well. What a great hidden gem, loved this place. If you're looking for it, it is opposite the attendant-less Maxol garage, down the side of the used car place. The décor has all the hallmarks of a trendy contemporary coffee shop/deli, nothing too original, but to their credit they have distilled the design to the best elements of it and then executed the layout very well, so it's a nice place to be. The staff were great too which I love as there is little to endear a place to me more quickly than nice people working there who are nice, not through customer training but because they are just good folks!! The food when was great, a wide range of mouth-watering choices are clearly displayed across the huge menu..... which is the entire back wall of the place. It has been painted in blackboard paint and the menu chalked up in big clear writing. The prices although on the higher end of average aren't extortionate by any means so I wouldn't call it cheap eats but you get top quality food and service for just north of average price. The coffee was great, which is an essential element for me and the last thing I ate was a scone..... as we were there so early, it was freshly backed and still warm from the oven......................... so so good!

I had blue cheese with my medium steak and it was very tasty. Everyone was happy with their food. I enjoyed an espresso martini after my food and the rest of my family enjoyed trying the many other cocktails. Good selection of Gin cocktails.

Busy enough for a Thursday evening, but we got seated no problem and the staff were quick to get our drinks order sorted. The menu had plenty of variety, we opted for some breads and tapenade to start which was lovely however the mains were disappointing, My bf had a pulled pork burger, he said it was bland and a bit over cooked, but the chunky garlic chips were great and a saver! I had chicken and chorizo pan cooked thing, it was far too creamy and made it all a bit rich and bland. Again the chunky garlic chips were a saver though, they tasted great! We didn't stay for dessert, the call of fro yo in Spoon Street down the street was too strong. It's as the sort of relaxed mood and atmosphere I love, and would happily sit there through the night chatting, drinking wine and sampling their extensive cocktail menu, but the food would need to be up to scratch also. Maybe we made poor choices, but the burger was on the specials menu, so you would think it would be good! Not only that it was a little bit pricey. I've had lunch here in the past and been happy enough so marking it on my past experiences also, and I probably will be back at some stage.
