We are regular customers at cuffs. An booked a meal for a birthday celebration for 9 people on Sunday 29th September 2024 @4.30pm. On arrival we were told that our table was booked for 5.30pm. Which was not the case. They seated us at 4.25pm. Four of the party had soup. Which they finished quick enough. Despite this. We had to finally ask at 6.15pm if our mains would be much longer. When they eventually did bring them out. One of the meals was wrong turkey and ham with gravy and should have been peppered sauce, one came (chicken goujons) an were eaten before the side that they came with was brought to the table. The final meal (a steak) (was brought when rest of the party were nearly finished there meals) and it to was wrong. Chips, instead of mash and pepper sauce instead of gravy. People who came in much later than we did, were served (3 courses) and left. Before all our party had received there meals. Not once were we asked if we would like more drinks throughout this time. Despite arriving at 4.20pm. We were the last to leave restaurant due to this service. All of us only having one soft drink each. This was very disheartening. I have only ever left good reviews for cuffs. An had recommended here to my friends. Hence why it was booked for a birthday celebration.

Always visit here to mark our end of service and always have a great time. Food is top notch and the staff are always so friendly. Great for large parties so would fully recommend!

Ate here twice. Day we arrived in Belfast because of convenient location and reading about it online. The burger was wonderful. Ate here again the day we actually toured the Crumlin Road Gaol - very disappointed. Horrible service and the fish and chips were greasy. So was the "jumbo" prawns (which were very small and all batter) and onion rings. Seemed disorganized also. Planned on dessert but server never returned so just gave up.

Feeling hungry after a fantastic Crumlin Jail guided tour, we went into Cuffs restaurant. We were soooo surprised with the quality of the food, as tourist attractions usually sell mediocre food, this food was absolutely delicious (a very good selection of food too and the Guinness was a bonus)! This restaurant can be booked without the accessing the jail…we will definitely visit again!

We were visiting the gaol and hadn't had lunch so thought we'd give Cuffs a go. Food was really good and there was a good selection on the menu. Food was freshly cooked and had a good balance of flavours. Prices were reasonable and service was quick and friendly. Great use of the space, very comfy and modern inside.

We weren’t planning on eating and drinking here but as we were waiting for the Crumlin gaol experience to begin we thought we’d check out the restaurant as the menu was on the window and it looked appealing and prices were good for a museum type restaurant (though you don’t have to visit the gaol to eat and drink in the restaurant!) It was a slow service start and we had to find some menus as these weren’t provided when we were shown to our seats (booking is advisable as we were informed they are always busy). However, everything went smoothly after that. The food was amazing and service was very friendly. Best steak sandwich I’ve had! I will definitely be booking this restaurant again for food when in Belfast.

This was a belated birthday lunch. Great parking in the prison grounds and short walk to the restaurant. Good access in the basement of one of the wings. Very presentable and brought to our seats very quickly. I had the chicken on mash with peppercorn sauce with tobacco onions. The chicken burger was also excellent that my relation had. Great portions and extremely tasty. The apple crumble was also excellent. Fully recommended this place. The only thing I would say the staff where very busy but attentive. It was just a little slow but today we were not in a rush. Thank you will be back.

Enjoyed a delicious Mother's Day meal, which was a great addition to the guided tour of the Gaol. Food was delicious and the staff was lovely as anything. The only thing that was less than ideal was the noise level, mostly from an abundance of children. As an autistic person, this was quite overwhelming. The food made up for it in the end. Will definitely be back!

Called in to try there Sunday menu 2 courses for £19.95 or 3 for £24.95 ..On arrival the restaurant was warm and cosy tastefully decorated wasn't overly busy ..We waited a while to be shown to our table ,Once seated drink and food orders where taken quickly we ordered prawn cocktail weaten bread and ceaser salad for starters ,We both chose the burger loaded with bacon ,cheese ,chicken strip and peppered sauce and thick cut fries the wee woman chose from the kids menu margarita pizza and fries and some Malteser cheesecake to share ,Have to say food was very good and good portions and cheese cake was delicious 😋 My only issue is the service after the initial order was taken I had to constantly get up out off my seat to go search for a waitress to lift plates order more drinks sauces etc they all seemed to disappear out the back kitchen area no one once asked how our meal or came back to lift empty plates glasses replace cutlery etc..The total bill including 3 diet cokes and a pint off cider was £63 which was very reasonable I'll definitely give it another go hopefully next time the service will have improved

Supposedly a “bar”, but not the right to have a drink without eating… why not… but at 4 p.m. in the afternoon?? 4 waitresses available, 3/4 of the room empty, 30 minutes of waiting in front of the visitor watching waitresses who don't want to work. It’s a shame, it’s really not very hard to put someone in a corner and serve them a guiness, especially when you’re the only establishment open.

We went without reservation on suggestion by our Black taxi tour guide but were glad we could make it. The service was quick and fantastic . And the food portion size was plentiful wrt the price. The waitress Ms. Grainne took great efforts to explain and serve the dishes, especially trial drinks for the cocktails when we were in two minds. All in all we enjoyed the time.we had. Though we didnt make the jail tour during the day.

Hemos visitado la prisión y al terminar hemos comido. Hemos pedido 2 buguers con sticks de boniato y un extra de aros de cebolla. La burguer era grande pero la carne estaba demasiado pasada y el sabor nada espectacular. Los aros de cebolla demasiada cobertura. Lo mejor de todo los sticks de boniato en lugar de patatas, buenísimo. Las 2 burguer, los aritos, media pinta cerveza y un agua £29,75

Heard good things and it lived up to the hype. Vibrant atmosphere (piled up after we arrived), and the food was plentiful, reasonably priced and tasty. Service was quick and there were no delays getting the bill. The only gripe is the coke is minimal per glass. Overall, a worthy stop for a decent lunch.

After hearing great reviews of both staff and food my partner and I decided to finish off our self guided tour with some lunch. Sadly neither of these expectation were met. My vegan partner was left dissipointed after recieving her soup with no bread. She was informed the bread was not vegan but was not offered any alternative.(perhaps a small side) I believe this was made worse by the fact she still had to pay full price and when we questioned the reciept the waiter remarked that we would still be charged full price as the bread (which she did not have) "Costs next to nothing to make". My chicken burger and chips were average. We were left a little underwhelmed by the experience and waiters demeanour. Didn't bother staying for coffee or sweet treat. Not typically on here writing reviews but this did stand out after hearing such good things. Shame.

Maggie Mays was recommeded to us before we came to Belfast. It was a five minute walk from the hotel and our first stop after arriving at lunchtime. The service was fab, the food was amazing. Hubbies had the Titanic burger and I had the soup of the day which was Chicken and veg. I have not tasted soup like it since I was a little girl. Absolutely delicious, the bread served with it was lovely too, more like cake....fine with me!

Went on Wednesday 29th Nov. Food was amazing as always and the two girls serving were exceptional. My son is special needs and they interacted so well with him. He is non verbal (one word answers sometimes) but they asked him what he would like and he replied chicken. They were extremely helpful,pleasant and very welcoming. So thank you for our experience as we don’t get to do family meals often.
