Soup, sandwiches, scones, toasties, tarts, pies and tray bakes galore, you will be spoilt for choice here at Chimes. The staff are friendly too, and very attentive, outside seating is available if you are a disgusting smoker (put them all on a different planet I say) Such a lovely little place is marred by the hack-hack-hacking of the bingo winged miseries sucking the life out of their illegally imported Benson and Hedges. There is a God bothering cafe next door but I wouldn't go past Chimes, and it really is very reasonable for the quality of the food and service. Much much better than the higher rated Yellow Door a few streets away. I love it

Although their vegan offerings aren't huge, in terms of the usual vegan options in Armagh what is available here is good. Small range of vegan German Biscuits, chocolate and Rocky Road Tray-bakes. Haven't yet tried any savoury food, but there's a salad/ sandwich counter so I'm sure they could create a few vegan meals. Lovely coffee house in which to catch-up with friends or relax at a window seat and watch the sleepy, slow-moving streets of Armagh...

This really is a 'secret' garden…read more My sister and I were seeking a venue for a little treat and she recommended we try here. Afternoon tea without the ridiculous price - perfect. At £24 for two this really is a steal. Sandwiches of your choice, scones (with the usual accompaniments) and some yummy traybakes. This is more like non pretentious, Northern Irish style afternoon tea. With the tray bakes including mini fifteens and malteaser squares. If you are looking for something cutesy, scrumptious and not breaking the bank then look no further! Will definitely be back. Don't forget to check out the gift shop for some trinkets and the perfect gifts for mums.

Well what can I say my mum took me out for lunch to this place over Easter week and I was a bit…read moresceptical. Tea rooms attached to a garden centre, tend not to have the most out there reputation. I'm glad to say my scepticism was blown out of the water. This place is definitely a little gem of Belfast. The actual tea rooms/restaurant are an elegantly appointed building with stunning views of the countryside. You feel like you are in the great hall of some stately Victorian home. Sumptuous décor and a varied and delicious sounding menu. As we were there during the week we availed of the two courses for £9.99 (I think that was the price so apologies if I got this wrong, my mum was paying) We both ordered the soup for starter, Butternut Squash, chilli and coconut. Very tasty and a huge portion, I couldn't finish mine because I wanted to leave room for the main. My mother ordered slow cooked beef brisket, Mash and roast root veg while I had the smoked haddock, creamy bacon and leek sauce and the same sides. I cannot fault the food, it was delicious. My only tipple would have been that a selection of different sides for the fish may have been a little better, Maybe some samphire and potato croquets or some such. We also caught a glimpse of their cram tea on another table which looked stunning (I think the Waitress said it was £20/25 per head) Overall an amazing place for lunch, but it doesn't end there. They also offer a dinner menu Thursday to Saturday and it is BYO so definitely cannot be doing wrong there. I highly recommend this place for lunch or for dinner! If you go for dinner though I think you have to book as this place is making its mark on the map and seems to be getting ever more popular!

While it is in an unusual location down an alleyway - it is a very vibrant coffee shop and many regular customers. Food and drink is reasonably priced. Much cheaper than Starbucks and far nicer. £5 for a panini and coffee of your choice? Bargain I say! I also know the staff well, so there is good craic and banter to be had. Free wi-fi, great service, wide range of food, daily offers, a loyalty card, and an exceptional cup of coffee. So bring your friends, family and relax and enjoy the coffee!

We had vegetable broth and wheaten, sandwiches (3 or 4 fillings), a large warm scone each and a plate of sweet treats. Everything was delicious, the top tier (desserts) were my Least favourite, but I'm a keen baker and fussy about my desserts. They just weren't my fave. Too sweet and not entirely worth the calories. The scones were amazing, the sandwiches were fresh and plenty for two and the soup and wheaten were delish too. The service and the girls here were excellent. Friendly, helpful and never let our teapot go empty!

This place is nice enough. It's going for the higher end market quite clearly and that is sort of…read morethe problem here. It charges the prices to match. This would be ok but it is the sort of place you'd like to pop in to for a coffee and bite at lunch time. Here that's going to cost you close to or maybe even more than £10 by the time you get a coffee, main lunch (sandwich or sarnie/soup deal) and maybe a little something sweet for desert. To be fair I have to say the coffee although not exceptional is above average, and I think I'd say the same about the food. So that's my problem really, yeah it's very much dead on, but the prices just don't tally with me with what's on offer.

I would generally never be going up this road, unless of course I was going to the airport, which can only mean that I would be jetting off somewhere on holiday, in which case, my last thought would be stopping off for food on the way, so one weekend, we decided to come here especially. Situated alongside a filling station, the Airport road cafe is almost like walking into someone's (rather large) kitchen. There is plenty of seating around, and the walls are all adorned with tens (if not hundreds) of little plaques with cute sayings on them. We sat down, and soon after, our lovely, tasty, unhealthy, greasy fry up was brought to us. Now a fry is one of those unforgiving things, you either get it 100% right, or 100% wrong. I'm pleased to say the Airport Road cafe got it 100% right! Looking forward to the next one!

They also have a very well-stocked delicatessen which includes an impressive cheese counter and it was this delicatessen which I recently explored. When I made my first visit to The Pie Shop across the street, I wanted to combine the pies with delicatessen stuff out of McCartney's, particularly salads and cheeses. I wanted two blue cheeses and I opted for Shropshire Blue (which I already knew from long ago) and a totally unfamiliar one called Blue Murder by Alex James of Blur. Now that was a find! I definitely want more. Salad-wise, I opted for a broccoli, carrot and nut salad which is in a mayonnaise mix. That's also my favourite side salad at a local deli and this is fairly similar to that. I already know how well it goes with lasagne and it's great with pastry pies too.

Whether it's for a…read moregood cut of meat for a roast dinner, or a great steak, or for a lovely range of ready to cook products, you will not be disappointed. Their customer service is excellent, and all the staff really know their stuff, and go the extra mile to deliver that personal touch. As well as a fab butchery department, McCartneys have relatively recently extended their premises and now boast a fab deli and bistro/coffee shop. Once again, the food is outstanding and the customer service is the best. I couldn't recommend this place highly enough!
