Customer Review Summary
Craft beer draws most reviewers in, with several praising the wide selection and one calling the Belfast branch "leagues better" than a London counterpart, but food comes in a close second: the smash burger gets singled out as juicy despite being "a little bit on the expensive side," and the goujons and chips draw repeat praise for value. Vegan diners note a small but delicious menu including a cauli wings and slaw plate, and a coeliac reviewer was glad to find gluten free ales and food options worth returning for. Cocktails and cans (including a pricey passionfruit martini) get mentioned favorably, though one reviewer found the blue cheese dressing served with fries "runny and gross." Staff are repeatedly called friendly and quick, with one bartender noted for carrying over a seat for a disabled guest. Several describe it as a relaxed stop before a train or after a show at the Grand Opera House, with booths offering power outlets appreciated by travelers.

“A very nice spot for a pint before travelling. The food is simply delicious and for £6.50 for goujons and chips you can't complain!! They were also some of the best goujons I've had!! If I was travelling more to Belfast I'd stop here every time!!”

“Nice relaxing atmosphere, situated upstairs away from the hustle and crowds. Plenty of beers available, I went for a pint of Corona £7 something. Didn't have food just a quick pitstop but the menu did look good. Served quickly and staff very pleasant”

“No food as it's Monday. But they permit you to buy food in M&S and bring it into Brewdog. I bought a feast. Washed feast down with lovey cans of Passonfruit Martini. Cans are strong at 1.75 units of alcohol each. But they're £10 per can so only for the committed! Cocktails are served nicely.”

“Have been in before for drinks which have always been great but today we called in for a family meal after a show in the Grand Opera House. Good food options, friendly fast service and decent prices. Food came out quickly and was all delicious. Will definitely use this again as a family food stop in the future, if nearby.”
