About Harbour Cafe
Harbour Cafe is a cafe in the Lesley Centre on Duncrue Industrial Estate in Belfast, at 7 Dargan Rd, about three minutes from the Belfast Stena ferry terminal. That position makes it a breakfast stop for people boarding the ferry or coming off it. The menu covers breakfast and lunch, with a Belfast fry in standard and jumbo sizes and a sausage bap alongside. A separate sandwich bar turns out sandwiches, toasties and salads, and the kitchen cooks its food fresh. A fridge of non-alcoholic drinks sits in the cafe, and a big pot of tea is kept on the brew.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return to this cafe above all for the Belfast fry, which one diner calls a true Belfast breakfast, cooked fresh and not greasy, with a big pot of tea kept on all morning. Close behind is its position near the ferry terminal, with many describing a stop before boarding or straight off the boat, and a group of nine agreeing it was the best breakfast they had had in Belfast. Others mention a sausage bap that came with a free filtered coffee, plus sandwiches, lunch options and a fridge of soft drinks. Staff are repeatedly described as friendly, lovely and quick, and a couple of reviewers credit the kind owners. Food is called good value, with one reviewer praising both the standard and jumbo fry. The one complaint comes from a reviewer who was told to take a seat and said they sat for 15 minutes while everyone who came in after them was served. One diner says they will now call here first instead of buying a fry on the ferry.
