A large place, very good burgers, nice music and a typical Irish atmosphere. There are a lot of people on the weekend and it's hard to get a place, so it's a good idea to make a reservation in advance

Really annoys me giving a bad review to any Belfast establishment because I know that plenty struggle. But peeved at what I think was a bit of a cheap hand take Bootleggers spun last night. Picked up the bill for a group of us that came to £237 and happily added a 10% tip because in fairness the food was great. Upon checking the bill again this morning, the bill was already inclusive of a service charge. And yeah, I should have been more attentive to the bill, but I’d expect most places in Belfast that include a service charge, out of a sense of being dead on, would highlight to a customer that a service charge had been added when they then add another 10%. Our server didn’t bat an eye, and happily ran off with their extra money without saying a word. A shame, because could have easily been leaving a good review here. But won’t be back on principle. In this part of the world, honesty probably trumps how good the food is 👎🏻

Monday Nights in Belfast - I was looking for a family oriented place for dinner. Trip Advisor sent me in the direction of Bootleggers and they didn't get it wrong. It doesn't look family oriented from the outside, noting some places in Belfast won't allow children but this was a great option for dinner. The tacos were delicious and service outstanding! I only thought to take photos of the beer!

This place has been so lovely to dine at; staff are lovely and bought all our meals and drinks on time. Would recommend as they also have an outdoor heater which also was nice! Food came in big platters. Only thing some foods seemed over priced others underpriced which was confusing but all tasted lovely nevertheless.

Stopped here to get warm and decide on dinner after doing the Game of Glass walk. We ordered drinks before looking at the menu which very standard bottles of Cider at £5.40 each. The menu was limited and disappointing, nothing traditionally Irish which we really wanted on our first night in Belfast so we moved on to find something a bit more to our taste.

Called in for lunch while out Christmas shopping. We found using the app for joining the queue to be very useful and straightforward. Meant we could continue to look round the shops while waiting for our table. Food was tasty, just found the portion size of the loaded fries to be on the smaller side when you consider the price. Overall a really enjoyable lunch.

As you enter Bootleggers you pass door staff then queue to be seated. We were taken to our table and our drinks order was taken. The majority of our group ordered burgers but I chose the Tacos and Mac and Cheese. When it arrived there were three tacos stuffed with pulled pork and salad filling. The mac and cheese was served in a tin mug. Both were tasty. The beers were a little expensive as compared with other bars but all in all it was worth a visit.

We stopped here for lunch one day- the service was fab, really relaxed and friendly. We ordered lots of bits to share, including the nachos, chicken wings and loaded fries. It was all really tasty but the nachos were amazing. They came in a big metal tub (see in pictures as it’s hard to describe) it was just really cool. They also gave everyone a whole roll of kitchen roll, which we found hilarious. Would definitely eat here again if In Belfast.

Bootleggers is a must if you are in the Belfast area. I HIGHLY recommend the Mac n cheese dog. It’s a sausage, with Mac n cheese, chives, bacon and their house sauce on a giant bun. Those ingredients sound odd together but it was extremely good! We also got the Supreme Nachos and they were okay.

We found that not a lot of pubs serve food after 8:00 p.m. in Belfast City Center but Bootleggers (which was right below our hotel) came through for us! My wife had a grilled chicken sandwich on a brioche bun and I had their fish tacos both were excellent! They also had my favorite beer, Brew Dog Punk IPA on tap and a good selection of wines for my wife and a very tasty dessert.

The staff are great we got some good recommendations and friendly chats. The food was 10/10 would suggest the mozzarella sticks they were really cheesy and melty! Burgers were everything you could want. Just overall a great vibe whether you want a meal or casual drinks😊

Amazing lunch here today. I got the Pig Out Burger and my friend (who’s vegetarian) got the About Damn Time Burger. Both were amazing, with great ingredients and large portion sizes. Best burger both of us have had in a long time. Their Crispy Fried Corn ‘Ribs’ were next level and well done. And they were flexible about doing a half an half sauce option. The Sticky Toffee pudding was next level. For me personally it’s probably the best I’ve had in a long time. It’s not overly rich. The texture of the pudding is fluffy and the sauce is toffee like without being overpowering. It’s the perfect combination. The atmosphere is fun. They play great music and the customer is perfect. They were friendly and funny. Accommodating and they hit the right balance with table service. Thank you Naomi!! I would highly recommend and would happily come back the next time I’m in Belfast.

We started our night here for some drinks and a bite to eat. Was really busy and told a 45 minute wait but a couple let us join them at there table outside as they were leaving soon. We ordered our drinks and they came quick enough. My gin and tonic wasn't brilliant but I think they were using diet tonic which I'm never fussed on but the girls enjoyed their cocktail tea pot. Ordered our food, 3 sides just to line our stomach for a night ahead. We waited over an hour for our food. Really disappointed, had to ask about 3 times, told the ticket was lost due to a lot of orders and told it would be with us in 10 minutes, another half hour later and another enquiry, our food arrived. The food was really tasty, I had the dirty tots which I could eat a bucket of but the hour long wait was really off-putting. £6.50 for sides is very very steep considering there were only 4 mozzarella sticks. Maybe just a busy night, these things happen but kinda expected some compensation as we were late getting to our next spot due to waiting for food for so long. The staff were lovely, good banter and friendly.
