The best coffee in Belfast so far. They also have a pastry from the Bakari place which happens to be based on my opinion and owner of the shop’s opinion best bakery in Belfast. So definitely worth going.

My fav coffee shop in the CQ, close to most attractions & venues BUT far enough for ME TIME & a slow paced coffee with a vibe to complement my mood perfectly

Very friendly and welcoming staff and space. Had excellent chocolate fudge cake and cinnamon roll. We also enjoyed the flat white and iced mocha. Would go back, especially to try the rest of the gorgeous-looking cakes!

Great tasting coffee, friendly staff, wonderful atmosphere and lovely gift store. It was quite quiet there on the weekend, but I'm sure it's a busy please during week days. I really liked the local crafter's and artist's store, great assortment of products, poster, pins and other interesting items.

Great coffee, really smooth, though a smaller serving than I would have liked for the price point (£7.60 for a cappuccino and a pastry). Pastries are from Bakari and are lovely. I recommend the vanilla almond bread. Nice views of the cathedral. Music was a wee bit loud, so not the sort of café to sit quietly with a book. Service was good.

I gave this café five stars because the staff were so polite, and the atmosphere was very relaxing! I was excited to visit this café as I came from Liverpool to visit Belfast, and I enjoyed the coffee even though it was slightly below my expectations. The drip coffee was excellent, and the croissant was delicious.
