Had a wee visit up from Derry today and had the pleasure of finding this wee cafe, have to say service and food was amazing as soon as we walked in the door we felt welcome my husband had the fry, I had the omelette and my step daughter had the pancakes, let's just say we left nothing on the plate was delicious, only down side was they have a great outside seating area but couldn't sit out there because the weather was awful, but be a great spot when the weather is better even just to have a cuppa and watch the world go by, it will be my go to place when I'm back in Belfast 😁 also plenty of places to park for free up the wee side streets 😀

I ordered two platters to cater for my dad's funeral. I ordered both very last minute as he passed unexpectedly but the team accommodated for me and had my order ready for collection within 2 days. For a very busy business I really appreciated them helping me out! I got one platter as sandwiches and the other as wraps. Both were lovely and everyone talked about how nice they were. Very fresh and top quality ingredients also. The girls behind the counter were so lovely aswell! Thank you so much to everyone involved with Doorsteps!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently had the pleasure of dining at Doorsteps sandwich shop on the Lisburn Road, and I must say, it was an absolute delight! From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted with warmth and friendliness. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting. Now, let's talk about the food - simply outstanding! The sandwiches were fresh and bursting with flavor, and the variety of options catered to all tastes. Each bite was a culinary delight. The service was prompt and attentive, ensuring that every aspect of my dining experience was top-notch. Overall, I highly recommend Doorsteps sandwich shop to anyone looking for a delicious meal and exceptional service. It's definitely earned its place as one of my favorite spots on the Lisburn Road!

RIP OFF - Got one the morning and it’s was reduced in size, not as big as they use to be, as per the size reduction it’s over priced £8.95 for a standard size sandwich has put me off going back to be fair as was not value for on the sandwich I got this morning no where near as big instead of name doorstep sandwich should be called over valued sandwiches, that’s exactly what it was.

The food is excellent and great value for money. I had a cheese toastie which was huge with at least 3 different types of cheese used in the filling plus it came with a lovely small salad and some corn chips. Definitely worth the money. The girl at the counter was delightful and very friendly. Personally I'd say the decor is a bit bland but the place is very clean and well maintained. Ideal place for breakfast, brunch or lunch. Will definitely visit again

Don't think I'll come back again, keep giving it another go but the consistency is lacking. Went on Wednesday and the food was really nice, wrap was well put together and ingredients but came back today (because its convenient to home) and the wrap was horribly made, a mess to eat with raw onion, the "toasted" tortilla was so burnt and destroyed the taste. Not to mention, when we went on Wednesday we paid £21.80 but got the exact same order today and we were charged £23.80 lol but didn't notice the price difference until afterwards. Either way, that is a steep price for 2 toasted wraps and 2 cans of juice - I know they give fries with the wrap but its not optional and realistically most people want a small simple wrap on their lunch, not a whole meal. The consistency is the main issue for me, way too hit and miss and for the price of it, its rarely worth it! I dont leave bad reviews unless completely justified and genuine!

My stepson and I called in on a Saturday morning at 0945. The place was quiet which according to staff was unusual but they were expecting a rush. The menu board is well laid out and the staff were friendly and helpful. I decided on a small fry and coffee. Mark went for a sausage bap which was well received. The fry was massive with potato bread, pancake(substituted for the soda) sausage, bacon, mushroom, tomato, black pudding and a fried egg. It was filling and there was no fat on the plate. The cost was £12 which was good value Overall well worth a visit

It’s nice and cosy inside and very good for children. I must say the do an amazing full English fry.

Just went in with a friend and the place was empty, still took us over 15 minutes to get served. Big fan of doorsteps in city centre, but this one was pretty bad. Waiter was pretty rude. Kept talking to us with a pen in her mouth and going off to answer phone calls and have conversations with her colleagues instead of serving us.Bread was stale, soup was horrible (must have been sitting there since 8am), and sand which was pretty poorly made. Random lumps of cheese instead of spreading things evenly. No tomatoes, didn't have 3/4 soups they displayed and They didn't have any bags for us to take our food out with and they gave us our soup in coffee cup. Very awkward to carry back home in the rain.Won't be ever coming back.

The name comes from their handsome sandwiches which are mostly bought to take away, and are very tasty - great variety. They also do a variety of sit-in meals, but when we were there it was lunch time, there was a long queue and no seats left. We queued and took our eats home with us. Food was grand, but I would try not to hit Doorsteps at lunchtime for a quicker service.

This place isn't set up for an in dining experience and judging by the lengthy but steadily moving queue at lunchtime, most people use the takeaway option.Doorsteps has always made monster sandwiches,no skimping on fillings here......they are the biggest sandwiches I have ever bought. Made fresh as you wait they are very good value. Over the years this place as added to the menu with hot food options available. They do a steady catering business but the lunchtime sandwich rush is the mainstay.Can't speak highly enough of the sandwiches and the modest price they charge.

I once loved Doorsteps. I worked in the area and visited regularly, as it was always a joy. Sure, the service was often poor and the prep area looked a little grubby, but the sandwiches were reliably excellent. Being charged totally different prices for the same custom combo was also charming, and added an air of surprise to the business-end of the visit.I now work well outside Belfast, but found myself driving along the Lisburn Road close to lunchtime today. I was excited that I could return to my old favorite for the first time in ages, so grabbed a parking space and headed through those familiar doors. Everything was pretty much as I remembered. The lady who made my sandwich vanished into the backroom halfway through making my sandwich without any explanation. The new toasting oven was covered in crumbs and dust, and an employee decided to use the grubby and heavily stained metal paddle to lift a sandwich off the little black basket over to the counter. It's all good though - those magic plastic gloves which never seem to be changed make everything fine.I realize at this point that my enthusiasm probably seems a little sarcastic. I genuinely don't mean it that way. I like to have a different option from the somewhat sanitized mega-brand experience elsewhere.Most importantly, my sandwich was exactly as I remembered. Well, until I ate it.The chicken was like nothing I've ever eaten before. It was plentiful, and looked pretty much like any cooked chicken you could imagine. However, it broke down into a paste almost immediately upon entering your mouth. The sensation was as confusing as disgusting. It was like a very thin pate, with bacon, lettuce and onions. Oh, and overly thick green tomatoes.At £4.10, I don't expect glory. I don't expect McService from this obviously homegrown brand. I also don't really mind the obviously poor cleanliness standards - our own home kitchens aren't exactly perfect. However, something that actually resembles meat would be appreciated. I can't even imagine how this chicken-looking substance ended up with such an odd texture, but I won't return to find out more.

Popped into Doorsteps with my girls last weekend for a couple of lunchtime sandwiches. There was a bit of a chaotic air to the place and the service was rather confused - although we finally got sorted after a couple of my options (off a very extensive listing of options on the board) couldn't be fulfilled for lack of ingredients. As I told my server that I was sitting in - I looked for a table. There were some unoccupied tables but they all had debris on them so I had to clean up a table as best I could. Looking round there was just an untended / unclean / careless feel to the place. As I took a couple of plates and left them on a counter just inside the serving area I noted how messy the floor was (covered in sandwich filling debris) and how there was 'stuff' everywhere.Have to say my bacon and brie sambo was spot on -so no problems there. Then - my girls being only 3 - they always need the loo - so I was searching the place for their facilities - only to turn round and find the sofa we were sitting on was blocking the door to the loos. Disability access (indeed access generally?)anyone? So pull out the sofa - and gals went in - but no soap - no paper towels or hand dryer and again a unclean feel. All round - it felt that on Disabilty access and H&S issues the place thought itself immune. I wondered how they passed inspections if that was their approach. So whilst my appetite was sated I left with an uneasy feeling that this eatery was flouting basic cleanliness and regulations.

Busy and expensive. But probably nice if you get early. Older crowd, but not drunk divorcee's nor handsy uncles.

The food was a bit slow. And the taste is just ok. Wouldn’t recommend the nachos.

Thus place has been my 'local' for the past 30+ years, very informal and food always tasty and well-presented, recommended.
