I first heard of Halt cafe in about the spring or summer of 2025 as a result of news articles about the naming dispute over Halt Weavers Cross in the former Europa Bus Centre. I was curious enough to look it up and decided to visit the cafe. On my first visit I had a very pleasant toasted Veda bread with scrambled egg and salmon (NBfor people not from Northern Ireland, Veda is a type of malted loaf). The coffee was very tasty,even when black, which doesn't apply to all coffee shops and is thus a yardstick for me. I decided to buy a croissant for takeaway as I was leaving and had already decided that I must come back for further exploration.
I've been back a few times and had something different each time. Most recently I had the rösti with avocado and poached eggs. I'm looking forward to whatever I have next. read more
