Lovely food, took a while to get our food but it was very busy on this day as it's very popular. I would recommend it as the food was lovely.

Whilst on the Cregagh Rd we decided to go therefor Brunch as it was quite near. On entering filled in track and trace form and cleanse our hands we were shown to a table. The waitress gave us our menu to peruse and she brought us coffee. Ashore time later she returned to take our order. We got a club sandwich and a ham and cheese toastie done on sourdough bread. A short time later she returned with our food. It was well presented and tasty. It was very filling as I never took dinner at 5.00 because I was till not hungry. They also do a take as well. There is plenty on the menu to choose from. It has been a couple of years since we have been there. We are not in that area very often but would not hesitate to return service and great along plenty of parking space

Todavía trabajando localmente, probé algunos restaurantes antes, pero decidí caminar un poco más para probar lo que el Rojo tenía para ofrecer, solo tenía las papas fritas y un café. Café agradable y limpio con un personal amable, estoy seguro de que volveré pronto, ya que fue un desayuno muy agradable.

I have been calling in here for years and only ever get a large americano and something sweet but it is a lovely coffee shop and the food looks so amazing! The scones have improved so much and I recommend the orange chocolate chip ones as they are gorgeous! Sometimes they also have rainbow cake and a good selection of traybakes. The coffee is amazing and hits the spot. All the staff seem hardworking and are very friendly. I keep meaning to buy a full lunch as the hot meals look wonderful! Busy at lunchtimes but that is to be expected.

Tengo que decir que he estado yendo a Rojo regularmente, pero la razón por la que vuelvo es simple: excelente opción de comida, excelente relación calidad-precio y excelente personal. Incluso cuando me pongo más ocupado durante el período de almuerzo, el personal hace todo lo posible para asegurarse de que cada cliente reciba su pedido a tiempo. No tendría problemas con recomendar Rojo como uno de los mejores sitios con mejor relación calidad-precio en Belfast para cualquier persona con un apetito por la buena cocina casera.

Great food but be prepared for a very long wait over lunchtime. Queues can be bad and when I was there, only one person was actually preparing the food /sandwiches which was pretty bad management for the number of customers on limited lunch breaks. Probably great any other time. Other staff were running around and surely could have assisted at this peak time.

Called in for a quick snack and chat with a friend, this took longer than anticipated due to the size of the sandwich and cups of coffee. Service was quick and above all with a smile 😁hey it means a lot. Clean and your not rushed to clear the table, amble choice of filling in your sandwich and hot meals.. Just like an American Dinner in our wee country!

It really depends on what you order! Their chicken strips are really nice but they sell out pretty quick. I ordered the lasagne last time I was there and it was not nice at all. The pasta was hard and there was a thick layer of oil/grease on the top. The cafe is very clean and the staff are friendly. Food takes a while to arrive. It's a busy wee spot, if you are thinking of going then go early and get the strips!

Had a full fry today, consisting of two soda halves, two potato bread halves, half a pancake, fried egg, bacon, two sausages and beans. The whole meal was hot as it served on a wam plate. Also had a cup of tea which again was very hot. All this for just 6.35. Fantastic value. Some other cafe owners should visit this cafe and learn how to cook a proper warm fry. Would definitely recommend. Will return soon.

Popped in to buy a take away scone When I opened it up the scone wasn’t much deeper than a pancake and felt and tasted very dry and stale I had chosen a fruit scone and all the fruit was distributed round edges leaving the middle completely fruit free. The edges were also overcooked The scone sadly was not enjoyable to eat. Not sure I’d be buying a scone from here again Bit disappointed Perhaps not a freshly baked scone?? Their tray-bakes on the other hand are usually exceptional

Went for lunch with my wife and son. Staff were super attentive upon arrival and seated within minutes. Drinks ordered and order placed all within 5-10 minutes of being seated. The wife went for the special which was salted chili bites with skin on skinny fries and side salad, son had sausages and chips and I had bacon, brie and red onion marmalade panini with skinny fries coleslaw and side salad. Picture below. Overall total was around £30 which wasn't too bad for two big plates of lunch and coke zero and child's lunch. Highly would recommend The Secret Garden to anyone looking for a high quality meal in the Dundonald area.
