Decent chippy, they have a few branches around Belfast and beyond, but this is the only one I've…read morebeen to - generally for lunchtime Friday treats! They do great lunchtime specials for £3.25 (I love the chicken fillet burger with chips!) Staff friendly, lots of parking available outside, 5 star hygiene award, recommended!

I wonder if the staff have been told to refry food until it falls apart as as that's exactly what I've experienced. A pile of burnt rusty coloured batter lying in the bottom of the box with some rock hard morsel above it. Stone cold burgers and chips that are just vile. Coupled to staff who get the order wrong and give you a tub of lumpy brown gunge that smells like Oxo instead of curry, there's more chance of hell freezing over before I darken their door again.

The venue gives off a welcoming vibe with its red brick walls and candle lights creating an intimate atmosphere. They also have a spacious alfresco dining out front for those hot summer night as it was tonight. For starter I had crispy chilli beef (with lime & coriander mayonnaise). This delicious salad was bursting with flavour. Chillies and lime - beef has never tasted so good! And Scallops the richness of the black pudding is magic with the clean taste of the scallops - delicious! My main of lamb rump was a good sized serve. Worth having again! I also managed to swipe a taste of the Barbary duck breast I can vouch that it was melt-in-the-mouth perfect and came with a very generous amount of the sauce, fondant potato & vegetables. When it came to dessert Chocolate mouse though, was an absolute knock-out. I had a really good night and excellent service from Ben and his team! I can't wait to go back and try the rest of the menu, including the Sunday roast and bring my son as kids eat free! 405 Upper Newtonards Road, Tel: 02890671105

I remember going here every friday night when I used to visit a friend living close by. I used to have their sausage which is decent enough and I guess they had to be doing something right for me to return every week. Alike any other chippy they offer the usual burgers, fish, chicken and chips. Nothing that special and their portions are not even that big. The locals love it cause its their local, but its nothing special. Sorry Fryar!! I'm going down to Robin Hood's instead!!!

This place really isn't up my street at all…read more they do greasy fry ups, burgers and chips, fish and chips and other general heart attack foods. The food is alright, but I can think of plenty of other places I'd choose over here.

Food is great - price is a bit steep.... £3.20 for a cheesy chip and 75p for sauce…read more The portions aren't great either. Walk the extra 30m to the Bethany.
