I can't believe I have never heard of this joint before, was out for lunch with the other half and…read moredaughter and called in here to give it a go. When we walked in, we were completely in awe of the whole décor / design of the place as it was like walking into an American diner in the 60's. I was waiting on Marty McFly walking past to be honest. Customer service was great! The best I have received in such a long time. The waiting staff were also great with kids. There is a jukebox at each booth which cost's 20p per song but all the money goes to charity which I think is great, and it has all the greats you would expect hearing in a joint like this, Elvis, The beach boys, Chuck Berry etc.... The food was pretty good, and this is the only reason it did not get a 5 star from me, but it's not unique, the chips, burger and sides are most likely bought into the store in bulk and it's food you can get at Frankie and Bennys / TGI's it's not individually owned if you were to compare to somewhere like the Hotplate. But in saying that it was pretty tasty, portion sizes were good and I would definitely be 'back in the future' if I am up at Boucher Road and the stomach starts talking to me! P.S you have to get a milkshake they are pretty Awesome!

Wow! I honestly always try and think of both the positives and the negatives of a place I've been…read more People are just trying to make a living, I understand that. But Springteens appears to be making its living charging me more than the cost of a small car for what could only be described as a very average steak! If I pay close to £20 for a steak in an 'American style diner' I want Buddy Holly dug up and singing songs in the booth next to me. On top of the disappointing food, they haven't really even made a fair attempt to kit out the restaurant in the fashion of an American Diner. It looks like a public hall hosting a bad play version of Happy Days. Save yourself some time and a lot of money; go to one of the 6/7 restaurants on the same road. I'm not saying they are all better; but they can't be worse!

Yeah...so...Springsteens...not a fan…read more.. The food just isn't good enough for what they charge. I understand the other branch (Lisburn Road, maybe?) is much nicer, but to be fair, it couldn't be any worse! About the only thing it has going for it in my eyes is the size of the portions, but I'd rather have half a plate of good food than a whole trough full of bad!

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.

If you're a fan of burgers and American Diners than you're going to love Belfast's newest burger…read morebar, Eddie Rockets. One of only a few in Ireland ER's is already proving to be a big hit on the Lisburn Road. Yesterday when I paid a visit it was absolutely jam packed. But the pin striped, attentive staff managed to deal with the hoards of burger lover admirably. The whole restaurant follows the USA diner theme, red tiles, bold brash posters with American slogans and red leather booths. Right down to even the tiniest details this place is perfect - they have mini duke boxes (50's style) where you can pay 20p for your choice of song. Right on to the important bit, the food. The menu is full of tempting delights but I went for the Smokestack burger upon a recommendation. I have to say I was not disappointed! The Burger bun was soft and fluffy, the burger was meaty and the extras combination were sublime. The best part of the burger was definitely the 'secret' sauce - sort of like a vinegary mayo. I'm underselling it with that description. Burgers will set you back £6.45 but they are not small and you certainly won't be hungry after eating them. I loved Eddie Rocket's - the only tiny thing I would mention is that it took a while for us to get our food which made us rush eating it. I will put this down to how busy it was. The place certainly isn't understaffed. Top marks from me - there's so much on the menu to sample that I will have to make a trip back soon!

Fun times and good food…read more Eddies is a great addition to Belfast. When you enter Eddies you can see that it is just like stepping into a real American diner and a great touch is that there is a juke box at every table. The food is great also. This is at heart a burger joint and they do it well. I had a smokestake burger and it was delicious. Applewood cheese, onion rings and secret sauce allll gooooood!!! I loved the food so much that I went back for seconds the next day and I can davey say that I will be back again.

There are some diners in Belfast that have been a huge let down to me (Diarmuid P and I disagree on…read moreSpringsteen's!). I hadn't much hope for Jennifer's Diner either. It's in a part of town that I wouldn't really praise for it's restaurant's, usually it's just the Café's and Deli's around this area and sure enough the food served at Jennifer's serves regular Café fare. This doesn't mean that what they serve is bad, I ordered the Burger and chips and was quick pleased with it. The burger was made fresh from mince and wasn't just a frozen mass bought patty from a whole sellers. The service was quick, the waitress was really friendly and bubbly and the price's are fine. Quite pleased to find this place, try it out!

I got a chicken burger and chips and was presented with a fillet, not that Birdseye crap, and the chips were really nice too. They also offer fry's and all the usuals with chips. I really quite enjoyed what they had to offer and while this wasn't gourmet dining, it doesn't pretend to be and really lives up to the diner standards and expectations! Jennifer's is somewhere I would certainly come back to as the food was great, quick and hot and its really easy to get to and just has that nice atmosphere about it helped by the great staff.

Botanic Avenue is full of choice, you've got chip shops, artisan cafés, infamous Mexican eateries…read moreand then there's The Other Place - a place that isn't quite sure if it's an old school café or an upmarket eatery. To be perfectly honest we only went to The Other Place because the queues in all the other places were out the door. But I'm glad we went. This is another café where there's the element of uncertainty when you enter - do you sit at a booth, do you wait to be seated or do you approach the counter. Here's your answer - you take a seat and the waiting staff will come and take your order. The decor is simple - pine booths and traditional posters and Belfast ornaments make up the interior and there's a decent chilled out playlist creating background noise. The menu is pretty straight forward. It's all comfort food really. Lasagne, wraps, fish and chips, burgers, you get the idea. I went for the fish and chips that was chalked up on the specials board (£6.95). The portions are huge - I got a fish that was hanging off the side of my plate. The fish and chips was perfect for what I wanted - just honest food, nothing too fancy. It tasted great and was the hearty lunch I was looking for. You can't really go too far wrong with The Other Place - there's absolutely nothing offensive about it - it is what it is - it's not trying too hard to be fancy, it's your bog standard cafe, what you see is what you get. So if you're looking for something comforting, or a taste of home go here.

Ah, I have many a fond memory of Cloisters when I was in first year at Queen's. Every Monday would…read morebe spent staring at the range of dishes in this canteen style restaurant, and then queueing in the world's longest line, attempting to find a seat (near impossible), and then putting the trays and plates away after..."This is a self-cleaning restaurant" after all. Since my first year at Queen's, Cloisters has changed dramatically. It has a number of separate dining options, including Rush (juice and smoothie bar), New York Deli, Costa Coffee, sandwich bars etc...very la-de-da! It still maintains that canteen style feel (yes, I know diner doesn't actually refer to that sort of thing, but it was the closest label I could find), and you would definitely know you were in a student restaurant, but it has been greatly improved. Yep, Cloisters has definitely gone up in the world since its humble beginnings, and is now a much more affordable and varied eaterie option for all Queen's students. I don't think the same can be said for the queues mind you, but what more can you expect? If only I was still one...

What every students yearns in their first year- a meal made for them…read more Cloisters is situated in the student union and so it's main customers are students. It therefore creates its menu around this grouping so expect to see lasagne, chilli con corne as well as panini's and veggie options. They do special deals each day but these are usually not very exciting so your best just going for what you fancy unless you're trying to save some pennies. The food is expensive in terms of a cafe within the students union (especially when compared to the food served in Bunatee Bar) so you aren't always getting a great deal for your money. However it's handy to get to between classes and it fills a hole.

Visited Eddie Rocket's, Boucher Crescent, on Sunday 26 February 2017. The restaurant was extremely…read morebusy and noisy with lots of customers, especially families with young kids. Nice interior which is traditional American Diner themed, but that's about all that impressed. Service was slow and haphazard. Vegetarian options extremely poor and quality of food not good. As there were hardly any vegetarian dishes on the menu I opted for the only vegetarian burger (The Ultimate Veggie). I choose to have this in a bowl with a side of French fries. My dining companion choose a couple of sides instead of a main - cheese fries and onion rings - again because the vegetarian options were so lacking. We waited for 10 minutes at our table before our order was taken then had quite a long wait before our food was served. When the food eventually arrived we still hadn't been given our drinks. We had to ask again for drinks, knives, forks and vinegar. Extremely poor and slow service which was not up to standard at all. Dessert consisted of a Knickerbocker Glory and cookies and ice-cream Sunday. Average desserts which looked better than they tasted. Overall Eddie Rocket's food disappointed. I could make a nicer meal at home with frozen supermarket-bought fries and burgers just baked in the oven. I am not impressed with Eddie Rocket's and found it dissatisfactory - both food and service need improvement.
