Tried the chicken & French toast. It was really nice. I was able to get seated immediately & service was pretty quick too.

Came here for a lovely breakfast on a visit to Belfast. Simple menu. Friendly staff with good sense of humour. Food was great. Had a kind of vegetarian eggs Benedict with perfectly poached eggs and a ‘green sauce’ which was plate-wipingly good. Nice quirky atmosphere, especially for something so close to the city centre. Saw other customers eating the fried chicken (brave move for breakfast!) - definitely eying it up for lunch another day.
