    Came here after hearing great great things from family in the area. We had the shakshuka and…read morecoffee. It was just amazing. And then we had desserts which was just out of this world. Stranfield we will be back

    Vegetarian café with great food and ambiance (4.5/5 Green Stars)…read more We stopped here en route to Carlingford on a friend's recommendation and all three of us were very happy we did. The place is lovely - the café is filled with light and plants and the surroundings are beautiful. Mum is a picky eater but she relished the mushroom quiche and finished the entire piece even though it was huge! (Seriously - about three times the size of portions elsewhere.) My brother loved his herbed rice bowl and I liked the organic porridge with fruit and the pistachio plum cake. The only kink was that several items arrived much later than the food - the coffees, bread, and honey for my porridge (I had already finished my porridge by then). The store is filled with great stuff - fresh fruit and veg, and a good selection of some of the most ethical products. Weirdly, the Strandfield website contains no info other than an address, so you have to rely on reviews to get info in advance. The lunch menu is mostly comprised of sourdough pizza, salads (including a quinoa bowl and herbed rice bowl), and sandwiches - see menu photo. There are also lots of bakery items, including freshly baked scones, cakes and wheaten bread (which was really good - I bought one to take home). I'm giving Strandfield café 4.5 out of 5 Green Stars for social and environmental impact, for these reasons: · I didn't actually notice at the time but the menu is 100% vegetarian! · Strandfield uses free range eggs from their own farm. · My porridge was made with organic oats · Flowers and plants in the café come from Stranfield's own nursery · The grocer sources local and organic fruits and vegetables along free range eggs, and organic health foods · The store stocks a really good selection of ethical goods - I could do most of my shopping here if I lived here. · Strandfield would benefit from providing more info (on the website or menu) on ingredient sourcing.

    City Centre

    With out doubt one of the best sandwich shops in the centre of Belfast. These guys really do the…read morebasics very well when it comes to the sandwich. Unlike most other city centre locations they don't mess around with hot sandwiches or paninis etc.. They keep it simple by offering an unreal selection of high quality fresh fillings and salads. The portion sizes are ridiculous (in a good way) they pile so much in it's hard to see how they make any money! My personal fav it's their club sandwich, this easily the biggest sandwich you can buy in Belfast, it's costs just over a fiver but would easily do two people. Along side the quality produce and massive portions the service is second to none. Bob and Christine run it and their banter alone is worth a visit, a nice touch is also the fact they give you a free apple with every sandwich for a healthy desert.

    Was here at lunchtime and well impressed. I got a chicken and stuffing sandwich on granary with…read morelettuce and tomato. Then I realised that all salads are free and they fairly fill up the sandwiches and salad bowls look immense. They don't do toasties or hot food. All food is extremely fresh and you can see them chopping up all the vegetables behind, and the chicken is freshly cooked chicken breast not pre-cut frozen bags. Family run friendly business, and great to see these still exist and are going strong. You even get a wee bag of harbio on leaving - be warned he doesn't let you leave unless you take one!!

    Great for plant-based peeps! (4/5 Green Stars) Have been…read moregoing to Bare Food for a few years now and by brother is a regular there. If you need convincing of the bare food ethos (explained on their website) then just try their scone. It's vegan and made with dried fruit and nuts to replace the refined sugar that you'll normally encounter. It's definitely more nutritious than a regular scone and also won't result in a sugar crash. Anyway, the food and coffee at Bare Food don't disappoint and staff members are always friendly. Café seating, both inside and in the laneway, is comfy. A good place to spend some time. I'm giving Bare Food 4/5 Green Stars for social and environmental impact for the following reasons: · Lots of vegan and vegetarian options (veggie sausage, tofu can sub for chicken in most dishes, vegan pastries, vegan butter). Eating a mostly plant-based diet is the #1 thing you can do to save the planet. · Tea is from Tea Pigs (a B-Corporation, plant-based packaging, member of ethical tea partnership) and coffee is from 8thCorner (sometimes organic) · Kombucha from SynerChi, made from organic tea in Donegal. Smoothies are made fresh, to order. · Compostable cups, but I do wish they could provide ceramic and glass for customers who sit out in the lane (A strange rule for Covid, I guess, even though it's not spread by touch). · Would like to see organic food, or some info about sourcing on the menu.

    My husband and I came into the cafe while we were on vacation in the area. I got the chocolate…read moreporridge and he got the full irish breakfast. My porridge was excellent-- chocolatey, but not too sweet, and I loved the hazelnut drizzle, banana and see topping (we've replicated the recipe a couple of times since coming home). My husband's meal was also good (although not great, hence 4 stars instead of 5). The cafe's atmosphere was lovely and our server was kind and very attentive. If we're ever in the area, we will be back! It's a worthwhile stop in Drogheda.
