Haptik in Belfast

Oh mi palabra, la comida era para morir. Cafés brillantes como siempre. El personal era increíble, amable y servicial. Nos encanta darnos un capricho en Haptik. Nos vemos pronto.

Visitamos regularmente Haptik en Newtownards con nuestro hijo celiaco y nunca hemos tenido una mala experiencia, así que decidimos probar el de Dundonald. Qué decepción. Nos llevaron a nuestra mesa y la mesa no había sido limpiada correctamente y estaba cubierta de migas de los comensales anteriores y el resto había sido barrida a las sillas que también estaban cubiertas de comida y migas. Pedimos que se limpiaran correctamente y la mujer que vino a limpiarlos audiblemente se quejó de tener que hacerlo. Le expliqué que no queríamos limpiar las migas de la comida de otra persona y que mi hijo tenía celiaquía y no debería estar tocando gluten. Luego le pregunté si podían atenderlo y me dijeron que no, no si era sensible, ya que no tenían una cocina sin gluten. Dije que los visitamos en Newtownards regularmente y los chefs son geniales acerca de tener cuidado y su respuesta fue 'bueno, no deberían'. Nos quedamos horrorizados tanto por la actitud como por la limpieza. Muy decepcionante y no volveremos a ninguno de los dos.

Had a great lunch here at the weekend. I had the buttermilk chicken on a waffle with poached egg and salsa and it was super; the chicken was perfectly cooked and the flavours and textures worked perfectly together. It was so good I ate it slowly as I didn't want it to finish! My wife had the smashed avocado and it worked in exactly the same way. Add to this their lovely locally roasted coffee, a shared brownie to finish, really nice staff leaving two happy punters. Will definitely be back.

Superb Melbourne style coffee, really tasty food. Really fantastic lunch. I had the breakfast muffin - packed with flavour and surprises. Would highly recommend

What a great place. Fab Scandi-like setup inside, beautiful coffee and delicious food. I stopped for breakfast whilst in Belfast with work. The porridge bowl was absolutely delicious, with fresh fruit and candied nuts making it so much better than any old porridge! Locals, you are lucky!!

Sat for ages to give our order, then asked a member of staff, then waited even longer for tables to be served that had arrived after ourselves. Finally got to order our food , when it arrived it was not what we had ordered. Very disappointed with the service and the food. Ironically enough we were asked if we wanted a loyalty card on the way out!

If this is what they eat for brunch in Mexico, I'm moving there. Food was fabulous and the service impeccable.

This was terrible, a large selection of the menu was unavailable so I ordered a meal that came on 3 separate side plates that was clearly for 1 person, when asked to put onto 1 plate the staff took it away and loaded 1 small side plate with everything, the sourdough was burnt. They had no selection of sugar free drinks at all for diabetics which is my dietary requirement so I had to order water that came with a glass that resembled a dogs water bowl. Will never be back

Buttermilk chicken is awesome, coffee fantastic! Breakfast muffins amazing, wide range of teas and coffee. Good music.

Called in when passing - I had noticed a frequent queue to get into their place in Newtownards and thought we would give it a go. I'm a foodie and love to cook and I have the simple benchmark that if the food is as good as I would make myself then I'm happy but if the food is better I'm ecstatic. Happily Haptic falls into the latter category and punches way above its weight for the brunch experience. Every plate is a picture, the staff polite, the interior attractive but the tastes and flavours really bang out. You can sense the energy from the young guys in the kitchen and they are rocking it. Love it love it.

We called in for a light lunch and were pleased and impressed in almost every way. The food was tasty and the service was polite, if a little too relaxed. The main annoyance was, subjectively speaking, the loudness, unpleasantness, choice and lack of necessity of the background music that played incessantly for someone’s benefit, maybe that of the staff. Maybe this says more about me, though. Prices were not too unreasonable and there is good reason to return.

We tried Haptik Newtownards and liked it so now we have tried Haptik Belfast and liked it better. Especially as it was cool inside on the one day this year NI is experiencing Sharan like temperatures (ie well into the 20c degrees territory) Coffee is excellent, Service and food likewise. Attentive staff, nice decor. Avacado does make an appearance on the menu, not sure if sourdough got a look in but everything is slightly different, which is very refreshing. Australian, maybe; Mexican, a bit; british,? and perhaps Norn Iron is in the mix too. I/we loved it, hope you do too.

We sat outside the cafe which was really pleasant,the people who work there are really helpful and the cafe has a nice atmosphere. However the food is not as good as the Newtownards Haptik.I had the refried beans on toast and to be honest I won’t be having it again, especially when they charge you £8 .The beans did not taste of anything from Mexico,they tasted like Asda sugar free beans.I think they need to seriously review the food offering for the high prices they charge,I think I will stick to the Newtownards branch.

Love Haptik Belfast, 3rd time there this week. Fantastic location for a walk at stormont, the food is superb, excellent service and lovely atmosphere.

Knowing and frequenting Haptik in Newtownards well, with their excellent service, and quality of food, the Belfast venue was underwhelming. Good ambience and cafe layout, but the food was well below Newtownards standards. Very 'Bob & Berts'! I hope it was an off-day with a stand-in chef due to Covid absences, so will go back and hope to report something better next time.
