Lottie in Belfast

First visit to Academy with a few friends after hearing good reports through word of mouth. We really enjoyed our evening. The restaurant itself is slick and chic, service was excellent and the food was absolutely great. I had the mushroom arancini, steak and eton mess. Loved all of it. Would highly recommend.

What a fantastic experience with the best tasting afternoon tea I've tried to date. Not only does it look good but the flavours are out of this world. Its a shame its closing but I'm looking forward to trying the new restaurant.

This is a lovely cafe with a good amount of drinks and food on offer. I got a raspberry and white chocolate scone which was very fresh and tasty. My friend got a ham and cheese croissant which she enjoyed. Staff were very friendly and despite it being quite busy we were served quickly and with a smile. First time here and will definitely be back.

The warmest of welcomes and a great stay, highly recommend. Shout out to Billy who is a national treasure and looked after our group brilliantly every day.

I usually avoid leaving negative reviews, but unfortunately, my experience at AM/PM for afternoon tea was disappointing. We arrived at 2pm for our reservation, but our afternoon tea wasn’t served until 2:45pm, and some tables that arrived after us were served first. We ordered tea, but some members of our group received the wrong type. Unfortunately, the staff’s unapproachable demeanor made us hesitant to address the issue. Once the afternoon tea arrived, we inquired about the items for dietary requirements. The staff seemed unaware of these needs and offered no alternatives except for choosing from the lunch menu, which wasn’t suitable for the occasion and had very few options. We had not been contacted in advance to inform us that dietary needs couldn’t be accommodated. As for the afternoon tea itself, it fell short of expectations. The selection was limited, and the scones were topped with squirty cream from a bottle. Additionally, refills of tea were hard to come by. Overall, it was an unsatisfactory experience, and we left feeling very disappointed.
