Not much I can say that hasn't already been said. This place is classic, old world and charming…read more The staff was fine, commensurate with what I have come to expect in the UK and EU, where lack of a tipping culture often results in what I find to be "lackluster" attentiveness. Servers are paid the same regardless of my dining experience. While the merits of the US tipping culture is the subject of much debate. What is undebatable is that a servers attention to my dining experience is certainly amplified when their compensation depends on it. Nonetheless the experience was a blast and the food was awesome. The stand out item was the seafood chowder. I will be back later this year for another bowl for certain.

A sweet yorkshire pudding guys hahsha you should come here to try it though. But the seafood chowder was just super good and so worth it for £10.

I would love to come back here again for my next trip to belfast. Cheers!

It's a cute cafe and bar in downtown Belfast. The gin selection is good but wouldnt say it was…read moreamazing and the cocktails didnt necessarily highlight the gins given the amount of sugar and other ingredients in them.

It was our first time in Belfast and decided to do our own pub crawl (especially if you have too…read moremany beers). Luckily we were not driving so Muriel's was our second stop. Since we had already had lunch we sat at the bar for a beer. We were greeted by a nice bartender. We told her we were looking for either a beer or cider. There are a few tables outside to enjoy the weather and a few tables inside. The bar area downstairs is small with quite a sizable collection of bras hanging from the ceiling. We ordered a Hilden Belfast Blonde and a Small Axe Session IPA. It wasn't super busy so talked to the bartender about travel. As another bartender walked in we also discussed beer and cocktails. He told us that flavored Gins were popular. He let us smell a few of the popular ones since we are not big gin drinkers. Decided to stop in the ladies room before leaving and found an interesting group of old photos while there. We didn't try any food but loved the beer and cocktail options and really enjoyed talking to both the bartenders. Stop by and check it out.

I booked a late reservation here at the Muddler's Club. I came solo and got dropped off by a taxi…read more I got a little lost while trying to find the restaurant. It's pretty hidden in the alley and not going to lie...coming to a new city, let alone a new country by myself was a bit intimidating, but I found it just in time for my reservation. I absolutely loved my first Michelin Star restaurant experience. I was born in Belfast, and have never been back since I was born, so I enjoyed every opportunity to tell a server. The staff was so friendly and described every dish. I ordered the Seasonal Tasting MenuEach dish was excellent. My favorite was probably the duck and the savory mousse pastries. Food in order of serving: 1. Sourdough Guinness bread with vanilla butter and olive oil 2. Olive sponge crab and apple, chicken and caramel with some type of mousse 3. Scallops, cucumber frothy brown butter 4. Bluefin tuna tartare with avocado and heirloom tomato 5. Halibut with crispy chicken skin 6. Duck 7. Sorbet and then....my phone died before I could write down the other yummy dishes I ate! The ambience was dark, romantic, and vibey. A little mysterious because of the hidden aspect, but overall I loved my whole experience here.

My weekday dinner at Muddler's Club seemed a bit directionless…read more The food is excellent, taste, flavor combinations and présentation. That is not the concern. The space itself has a very long and interesting history, just over 40 seats have been cramped into that space. A couple tables have small glass walls to separate them and squeeze in more diners. And it's pretty loud. So loud, I can barely hear the sommelier describe her wines. There may have been music playing... but who can hear? There seems to be an attempt to elevate the bartender over the sommelier, with the menu encouraging the guests to try specialty cocktails instead of selecting whole bottles of wine. And the bartender's constant ice shaker only adds to the noise. The service is very relaxed, with servers in t-shirts and jeans, sneakers, paper napkins. And the servers seemed a bit inattentive, watching the chefs through the pass, not paying attention to guests' needs. Oh, and the server even wrote "thank you" on the printed bill... How kind. Excellent Flair. Pure Chotchkie's. For the food, I'll return. 2025 04 16. M1. 235.

It's nice to find a place that has big windows for looking out at a gorgeous day and also patio seating for those who want to feel the sunshine on their face. This place has a great vibe overall, very spacious inside with lots to look at. Menu seems to have a little something for everyone. I decided on the tempura-battered cod fish tacos and they were really good, especially the chipotle ranch sauce (or whatever creamy spicy something was on them!).

This was another restaurant that was featured on the food tour I took when I was in Belfast,…read moreIreland. We ate our dessert here and we drank a wonderful drink made with Copeland gin called Gimlet. Nice pub. I can't speak on the menu because we only had the Guinness chocolate cake.

The Jailhouse is termed a Cafe/Bar. But I didn't see anyone enjoying caffeinated beverages. It's…read moremidway between the Belfast city center and the Cathedral Quarter. Hence the name, it used to be an actual jail. According to the website, its dog friendly. I didn't see any dogs there, but it's nice to know that it's an option. Great atmosphere to it. I appreciated the lovely, fresh flowers on our table. The Jailhouse has a rooftop/ upstairs area too. It was a vibe of laughs and hen parties galore! There were at least two hen parties being celebrated here on this Friday night in June. The bathrooms seemed like a trek to get to. They are not on the main floor with the bar area, so I gave up. I ordered something called the Pimm's (UK gin based liqueur) Spritz. It was a bit strong for my taste, so my sister in law finished it for me. The music selection in the background was great, albeit a little loud, but its a good place for locals and tourists alike.

Cute little place close to Duke of York and a good way to introduce someone into Belfast…read more Ambience: Cramped but a good vibe and easy way to catch up with friends from out of town. Service: Very communal based and quick. I will say though as I was not around at the bill and I was with some Americans-- they said they felt guilted into tipping extra which to me is a no no. Yes tip for good service but there should already be gratuity included. Fix this. I view this as preying on Americans that dont know better. Not appreciated. Food: High quality but lacking significant portions for the price. This is not London or Dublin stop charging like it is. Overall: Hadskis has amazing food, good service but portions and what I mention above make me stay clear and I will follow my inuition. If your a first timer to the area---its worth a gamble.

I'm not the biggest fan of buffalo chicken, butttt the chicken was flavorful and the perfect amount of crisp. My sinuses are also super clear now so I've got that going for me, haha. Fries were tasty and service was friendly/pretty quick! Nice place to stop by if you want to grab a bite for pretty reasonable (city) prices!

As observed, there was a lack of attentiveness at other tables for drinks and food and checks. We ordered our second round from the bar as there simply was not a server who ever gave us any eye contact. Once we inquired about the food, it finally arrived and it was really tasty however, the service was lacking. Very nice folks but... the longer we waited for our order, the lights went down and the music went up which felt like an encouragement to go. A strange experience all around.
