Today I tried to prove her wrong but the next thing I knew I was in a bakery queue, I think I blacked out, who knows?! The Antrim Road was crying out for a bakery/sit in deli like this and judging by the queues today the locals have already taken this place to their hearts. There's an exceptional take out selection which is clearly displayed on the wall. It can be tricky going to a new place and deciding what to get but I was sold on the Italian Style Panini with Salami, chorizo, pesto and mozzarella. These are pre made and ready to be toasted so you don't even have to wait around for the staff to combine the ingredients. I was really impressed with the quality of the food, fresh, flavoursome and incredibly delicious. Cheap too - at £3.75 I felt like I was robbing them. I'm in love with this new bakery and I can't wait to lazily amble up the Antrim Road on a Sunday morning and chill out in the lovely surroundings. It's a perfect 5 from me! I mean what's not to like? It's convenient, quick, cheap and really well thought out!

Such a lovely little place! We had breakfast and it was delicious and not expensive…read more Friendly, helpful staff adds to the pleasant atmosphere. They have a great selection of buns and tray bakes and Yes, we did have one but shared it as they where quite substantial. They also do a takeaway service as typical home bakery produce. Filled soda's, sandwiches and baps are availible to take out and very reasonable! So around about £2.50 to £3.00 . They where non stop and it was nice that the sit in area was a little bit separate from the take away so it didn't feel overcrowded. With the prices and the quality of food I can see why they are non stop. Always a good sign for any coffee shop.

Saturday night was an absolute stinker of a night so instead of heading too far from home we…read moreordered a collection from Brothers. I had always presumed Brothers specialised just in Chinese food but it turns out it's got pretty much a full Asian fusion menu, this was a nice surprise. Having said that, on Saturday night we were feeling particularly fragile and not too adventurous so we opted for dished we knew and loved. We went for Salted chili chicken, honey chili chicken, a portion of rice and a portion of chips. This was easily enough for three full meals with loads left over. Portion sizes are huge. In terms of taste the salted chili chicken was one of the best I've had but the honey chili chicken was a little different, it's flavour was slightly more honey than chili and they sauce was a little rich for my taste. Having said that I ate the whole thing. The whole ordering process was great. We ordered over the phone, but there is the option to order online. Instead of getting delivery I went to collect the food. The shop/kitchen were clean and modern and also well staffed - I think that's why the order was fulfilled so quickly. Overall a really good experience with Brothers. My first time ordering from them, but certainly not my last.

Jak A Snack is a little cafe on the lower part of the Antrim Road. To me, it looks like they have…read morecrammed a place to eat, into a place only big enough to buy your bread and milk from. In saying that, I've never seen it busy enough for this to cause much hassle. As the name suggested, they have a large selection of jacket potatoes on offer. I went for my old favourite of beans and cheese as a topping. It was really nice, I was pleasantly surprised that such a little place even had room for the oven to bake the potatoes but there you go. The have a good selection of breakfasts to choose from, as well as soups, paninis and a daily specials menu which is always good to have a gander at to see how adventurous the chef is being that day. The prices are amazingly cheap and the staff friendly.

Much of the food is deli-style where you choose your own ingredients for toasties or sandwiches. A cute quirk is that the menu posted on the wall is written backwards: so you have to look in the mirror to read it properly. We came for a (second) breakfast, so Mom wanted more of a lunch. She ordered a turkey and cheese toastie with sauce on the side. It was much larger than she thought it would be! I had an egg and bacon sandwich​ with poached eggs. It was simple and delicious, with two perfectly poached eggs and nice thick bacon! I also had a tea which was good! The food was piping hot. Service was good, and the staff was very nice! Stax is my kind of sandwich shop, and definitely somewhere I'd eat again!

Its a bit out of the way down Airport Rd in the Harbour Estate but parking is free and easy and I find it saves me more time than looking for a spot in Belfast centre.

The area around the Abbey Centre has grown over the last few years to become as much of a draw as…read morethe shopping centre itself. My first stop is always the huge branch of TK Maxx. How I love that shop, with its shoes and home wares and clothes and jewellery and stuff, stuff, stuff. Always a bargain to be had - I even lugged a huge chest of drawers out of there once. After paying for it of course. Curse those efficient security guards. There is a branch of every high street shop you can think of - Mothercare, Pets at Home, M&S, Tesco, JJB Sports, Matalan to name a few. I always like a look around Matalan where there are some bargains in ladies and children's clothes and a selection of birthday cards and invitations which has to be seen to be believed. Make a quick pit stop in McDs and you'll be ready for round 2 in the shopping centre itself. The Abbey Centre is pretty big, with several different 'wings' coming off the central point. Highlights for me are River Island, the bargain emporium that is Primark, Top Shop and Wallis. Apart from clothes, I also like going to the Abbey Centre for books - Stewart Miller and Easons always have offers on new releases. Chick lit I'm afraid to admit but someone has to read them.

How I love it…read more Just a short trip up the road from me, I have been shopping here for as long as I can remember, and take a browse around its' many shops at least once a month. There is a large amount of on site parking, so you can usually get parked with ease (unless you go stright after Christmas when the January Sales are in full swing) then its an absolute free for all! There are many shops here to suit all pockets, from sport shops, to fashion clothing, from banks to mobile phone and gaming shops, from card and gift shops to butchers, you will get pretty much anything you want at the Abbeycentre, without the headache travelling into the city centre can bring. There is even a new Poundland store for some of the old bargain hunting. And long may it continue!
