Horatio Todd's Bar & Restaurant in Belfast

Excellent service from booking to the event. Everyone was very helpful. The food was delicious, not one member of our party of 23 had any complaints. Would definitely recommend and will be back

Was out Friday night and had a great time. Love music by Drum & Bates was fantastic. Great crowd and nice drinks.

Previous experiences "service painfully slow, but generally very nice atmosphere and pleasant outside area". Today's experience "service dramatically improved." Very enjoyable visit..

Couldn’t recommend the restaurant enough. The service was fantastic. The waiting staff were excellent 10/10 and the food wonderful. A lot of other restaurants could learn from this one.

Love place good food. Where sitting Infront of the servicing hatch could hear the staff talking and the fowl language was not appropriate as the restaurant wasn't busy we could hear everything

Staff very professional, helpful and friendly. Food excellent and piping hot!

Great food and service. Enjoyed by all in our party of 4.

Fantastic food, brilliant service and big shoutout to lovely Maya, thank you for a great meal and first class pleasant service.

A lovely place. Food always delicious, staff helpful and reasonably priced.

Friendly staff. Busy always a good sign. Food tasty & plenty. Downside i had to pay a pound to have a yorkshire with my sunday lunch because i was having pork & not beef!!!!!

1st time here and would return again, highly recommend, lovely, very attentive staff, great food, although booking is a must.

Love this restaurant! The food is amazing

Day shift crew friendly, swingshift not friendly to foreigners, very rude.

It's a bar and we have very few outside of the city. Food is OK. Love the Free Damm on draft! Not my scene at weekends ( too many screeching people) but clearly uber popular Not dog friendly which is a shame as I am the hound pound when it comes to a pint at end of walkies

You need to make a reservation as it is busy. We went on Saturday night and the bar was buzzing and restaurant full. The service was the right level of friendly and attentive. The menu was varied and not overpriced. The food was delicious and we were welcome to stay when all was cleared up.

Met Joshua block here. The goat of drinking

Lovely creative interior design in the large Dining room at the rear of the Restaurant. The front of the building... the main bar with comfortable seating areas to relax with friends for a drink, a light meal. Good choice on their menu, lovely food, beautifully presented, served by nice friendly staff... highly recommend 👏

Really lovely Sunday lunch excellent food and service definitely will be back.

Sunday 5th January 2025. Had lunch here today and it was fantastic, food, service great, Ben Bennett (?) Think that's his name along with the other staff we're lovely very polite. We will definitely be coming back here again. Thanks for a great day out 👏

Good pints and good service, bar snacks are not good value for money 👍

Just had our work Christmas Lunch here today and it was amazing. The food was delicious. The staff were so friendly, helpful, attentive & did not rush us at all. Would highly recommend & will most definitely be back for food in the new year!!!

Super place for a lovely meal and few drinks with friends.

My brother and I were visiting "home" and were looking for a restaurant to have dinner on a Sunday evening and decided to stop when we found a parking spot out front, which was convenient for my brother who is disabled. We were pleasantly surprised when we went indoors, with the decor and ambiance. The friendly staff member asked if we had reservations, which we didn't, but she quickly found us a table. The menu has good choices, and after some deliberation we both chose the rump steak. Service was prompt and both our steaks were served as we requested. They were tasty and tender, and served nice and hot . Dessert choice were hot apple pie with ice cream and pavlova. Both were really good. We also had alcohol free beer which was also good. A very nice dining experience in a great atmosphere. Would definitely go back if when in Belfast.

The food and portions were great, very tasty, well presented, and hot. Unfortunately, the service let the whole event down. There were a number of disabled people at the table, including myself, the staff wouldn't serve drinks to the table without putting it on the whole bill and advised that if anyone wanted a drink they would have to go to the bar. It was busy, yes, but that was a bit much when they were serving other tables drinks. I noticed some of the staff gave the impression that they would rather be somewhere else. Despite the service, the company was good and we all enjoyed the food.

great place, great food, great drinks. amazing atmosphere and vibes all together.

Great bar with a good atmosphere

Great spot for a few drinks and a snack to end the night on the way out of Belfast. Good atmosphere and very friendly staff.

Friendly helpful staff, with excellent service.

Had a great night here. Food was good, a great range of beers and drinks and the music and DJ played all the tunes I knew.

Had a fantastic gnocchi as recommended by the server. Really friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere.

One of my favourite pubs! Good drinks, good food! Lovely atmosphere and great staff. Only critique is sometimes the beer garden is a bit dirty.

Food was excellent and well presented staff friendly and helpful

Great food and value for money. Staff were very pleasant. They even have draft alcohol free beer.

Wonderful spot, great staff, great food, great feel, good prices

Fantastic food, reasonably priced, lovely staff

Absolutely brilliant. Had my birthday dinner there and staff couldn't be nicer!! So accommodating, especially with picky eaters like myself. Will absolutely be going back. Beautiful restaurant seating & decor as well as parking out the back

Excellent venue, quality food, very honest price, very pleasant British music and pleasant staff. Highly recommended.

Staff and food….Awesome. Love the atmosphere and would highly recommend

4 of us celebrating our sons graduation. Service was excellent, food was delicious and plentiful, not rushed with time between starters and main, all 4 of us enjoyed our meals and will definitely be paying another visit and would recommend to others with no hesitation.

It's not possible to have dinner while watching a football match on TV. Only the bar area allows you to see the TV. I insisted but their rules are very (too) strict. The customer is not king...

The restaurant staff were amazing really good service. Food was good and we got the special.

Fantastic food, great service brilliant singer on as well. Reasonable price too.

Great place,lunch eas fantastic

A very good meal at a reasonable price, staff were very attentive and always smiling. I had a Pil Pil starter which, whilst nowhere near a Spanish Pil Pil, it was a great effort. Then I had the roast beef, an excellent choice for a Sunday roast, plenty of beef and veg and the gravy was so tasty. A great Merlot at a good price was a good addition. We shall be back.

Last night we dined here as a family of 6 and had a special occasion, my mum's birthday, ruined due to poor service and excessively long waits between only 2 courses, of what is basically just simple pub grub. The restaurant seemed to be overbooked for apparently only having one chef on and a large party were also seated behind this, I'm assuming the kitchen was just overwhelmed here, the front of house basically ignored us most of the night knowing how long we had been waiting. The manager *guy with glasses), basically just mumbled some half hearted apology then proceeded to bring the wrong order when the main courses did eventually arrive, one of our party didn't get their fish n chips and had to make do with a burger they didn't want instead. We were on the 2 courses for 20 menu, and 3 of our party were supposed to get dessert after their mains and weren't even offered it in the end. Our booking was for 7pm and we didn't get our mains until 8.45. It made for an embarrassing and awkward situation for my mum, and when she went to settle the bill the manager had the cheek to try to fully charge her for everything, when she queried this he reluctantly deducted the drinks from the bill, disgraceful. I work in the industry as a head chef myself so I know times are tough, staff shortages etc, but here tonight there was just no excuse, the restaurant shouldn't have taken the bookings if they couldn't cope, its a shame as we've used Horatio todds in the past for family occasions without any problem, so I hope they get their act together, unfortunately though I can't see us returning anytime soon.

A very busy lively bar/restaurant. Given there were about 30 of us on a Saturday evening the service and food quality was very good. We had pre-ordered our choices.

Busy but not crowded. Short wait for bar service.

From booking to ordering in advance, as there was 9 people, was very easy. They have a deal on think it's Monday to Thursday 2 courses £20. Excellent variety of dishes, starters, chicken wings, pulled pork tacos etc, main courses tiger prawn scampi, steak burger, fish and chips, peri peri chicken burger etc. sweets cheesecake, brownie etc. Staff very helpful and friendly.

Very good service and nice restaurant. Food was expensive though was matched in taste.

Very loud from s crowd of la As drinking at the bar and all shouting over each other.went on the full times we were there for a family birthday

Very pleasantly surprised by the food and service. The chicken burger was excellent.

Nice food, friendly staff. A little expensive but worth paying extra for nice food.

Amazing place for a meal or as in my case a birthday meal for me and extended family. Definitely will be back for a meal

Had a whole afternoon and evening there for watching the rugby and dinner afterwards. Great service and atmosphere. The servers attended our group of 25+ with a smile and diligence. No complaints from any of our group to the food. Top marks across the whole dinner menu. Notable food options were the goats cheese tart, the burgers, the beef daube, the Korean chicken and the linguine. Superb.

Just a pleasure to visit, great food, never had a bad meal & the staff are absolutely amazing. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Fun few drinks on a Friday night. Even got a few requests in with the guitar guys.

We had our 90 year old mother's party there and it was lovely 😍

Called in for a drink, great atmosphere

Went for the tasting menu absolutely superb. Shout out to niall!

Not a fan of food in there, but lovely place to have a pint or two

Lovely Sunday lunch, meat cooked to perfection! Service excellent, really enjoyed.

Had my anniversary dinner last night. Food was exceptional and would recommend anyone to try the sirloin. Excellent staff. Great place.

Had a fabulous time having drinks with good friends the staff were lovely and friendly 😊 we had a great afternoon 😀

Have not been here in a long time. Went tonight as my daughter has moved nearby. The food was excellent. But the staff were all amazing!! Had a great night and 100% will be back very soon. If you are looking for a nice bar/restaurant this is the place to go. Cannot recommend it highly enough.

Friendly, attentive staff amidst the chaos of Christmas outings.

Amazing service at Xmas on a Saturday night. Big ups to; Joni Ben Steph Sarah Janey and Jordan

Great food, service and atmosphere. Booked a table for Sunday dinner at 7 and had a couple of drinks after. Busy, but not overcrowded.

Christmas 🎄🎁 lunch was fabulous at Horatio Todd's! All well fed, jovial atmosphere and staff very attentive!

Great bar with a great atmosphere on a Saturday night with live music excellent, Good service too by friendly staff.

I was only in for drinks but hear the food is lovely. No tv, so not a sports bar! The entertainment was really good. Will definitely be back

A meal for four - a good selection of food and everyone was very pleased with our mains and dessert. We had no starters. The staff were very friendly and attentive and the overall cost of food and drinks was not exorbitant.

Loved loved loved it ❤️ food was class and staff were so lovely. Loved the bao buns and cheesecake. Will definitely be back soon and will 1000% recommended

Friendly & helpful staff. Had Sunday roast (turkey) & daughter had vegan option which was very good. Too much gravy but should have asked to serve it in the side. Children’s menu good but should have had small Sunday roast option.

Todd’s is a great place to meet and eat. It’s long been a focal point for Ballyhackamore. Famous for good food and drink and of course cocktails. A good outside heated area is great for ur four legged friends.

Great food and atmosphere, would highly recommend

Amazing service from the staff here! So friendly so helpful really lovely staff! Went for dinner and the chicken wings are spicy and tasty really well done. The bacon and cheese steak burger was gorgeous and the chips were lovely aswell. The portions are really generous I even had to leave some chips on the place! Will definitely be going back!!

Booked for a large family birthday celebration and everything was excellent - the staff were really helpful with questions about dietary needs within the group and were attentive to the tables throughout the evening despite it being a really busy service. Lively bar and really handy for the Glider back into the city centre.

Great food and atmosphere. Parking at rear good addition.

Good service, but my Guinness was shocking. Huge head and tasted weird. I drank half and left

The atmosphere was great. Bar staff were amazing. This place is highly recommended and will definitely be back. Won't let me change my ratings buts 5 star for me.

Nice atmosphere, tables well spaced out. Table serving staff very attentive, but not intrusive. Great food. We had burgers and they were very good.

I think this is the 3rd or 4th time here. Great meal and service again.

We went for a family meal on Sunday 15th October at 5,15 pm! food was absolutely delicious and our waitress was a delight! Even brought the birthday girl a glass of bubbly! Would definitely be back Many thanks Dawn

Excellent food and friendly staff 😊

Great atmosphere and we and a few drinks @ lite bites which were really good we were served by Stephen very polite @ great service

Always great good and service, and nice comfortable, spacious interior.

Meal for four friends at a circular table. Excellent 2 course menu and glass of wine at a reasonable price. Food enjoyed by all.

Fast service. Food was very good.

This place should be 5 stars - across the board we were pleased with the service, drinks, and food. Best duck main dish! The appetizers were also 5 star (squid & Brie; with chefs side salad). The dessert was also on point with flavors textures and portion size. Bar and wait staff (Daniel) were friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. The atmosphere is comfortable, clean, and fancy (but not too much, we are laid back people and still felt great!). Highly recommend! No photos because the food barely lasted, we devoured it :)

Cosy bar well placed in the town with great ambiant seating to hang around with friends

Cocktails were great on them all night

This was our first time there and we didn’t even have a booking Myah our fab waitress brought us to our table and the service was excellent She was the loveliest waitress who couldn’t do enough for us Food was amazing too and my hubby was very happy with his banana split as he hasn’t had 1 in years and I was more than happy with my calypso coffee😋we will definitely be back with the rest of our family Thanks to you all and not forgetting the chefs 😊😊

My first time there. Was very happy with delicious food, service was excellent with nothing being a bother. Will definitely return

We went on a Tuesday and had the two course and wine for £17.95. The food was gorgeous and all staff so friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend

Only popped on for 1 pint as was driving but good quick service.

My friend and I had a lovely relaxing lunch here. We chose the bar area at the front which has more comfy seats than the restaurant at the back. We each had a warm salmon salad. Very big but tasty. Lovely relaxing ambience and friendly service

Went to lunch with a special friend. Just lived it, the food was great, gin lovely 😍 nice atmosphere, not to crowded for lunch time. Staff lovely 😍 👌

We stopped off for lunch, and the food was great. Certainly worth another visit in the future. A bit rowdy, on my latest visit, which was a bit off-putting

Really good food and the two course with wine deal was excellent!

Great place...food is lovely... an all round Great vibe x
