Santeria in Belfast

Fantastic drinks and lovely staff!

terrible service, no etiquette for the bar queue

Lovely cocktails with no airs and graces. Very sound and hardworking staff. Good music and atmosphere and the prices are extremely reasonable. One of my favourite spots in the city

Cocktails are incredible and friendly bar staff to boot...as always! Will be back!

Fabulous cocktails priced well no it's still Fabulous

If you want to make questionable decisions and poor judgements that will affect your life in an unfathomably far reaching manner, this is the place that will give you enough encouragement to think all they’re a good idea and will change the world. They wont, but it’s the thought that counts.

Staff are next level cool that go out of their way to accommodate. Very hip fresh bohemian vibe. Cocktails are bangin too

Great cocktails, cozy and very popular

Cocktails were so nice, staff were very friendly, lost a star because not much seating - bring your coat

In for a drink on a night out and ended up staying for a few. Pleasant bar staff, eclectic mix of people that were there and a happy vibe in the bar. A little small so get there early if you want a table.

Love this place. Its my go to cocktail house. The staff are always helpful even in creating some random requests. Couldn't fault the place.

I didn't get much this place, mostly if I need to order at a bar, of if I should wait for someone to come to the table. When I was at the place with my boyfriend, information about waiting was not mentioned anywhere, or at least we didn't see it written anywhere. We waited about 30 minutes at the table, then we went to ask to the bar and made the order there. We learned that it's one of those places where you need to order at the bar. And since it was not written anywhere, I don't know if it's a general concept in Dublin or in bars in the country, or if it's just here. Or maybe here after some hour, I really don't know. Another thing were meals. There was a menu written at a board outside, so we thought we could order something. But when we got to that, we were informed that the kitchen had closed few minutes ago, the place is serving just nuts and similar snacks, and someone from the staff needs to hide that menu border. In the end, we had some drinks and went for dinner somewhere else. The drink were good and I liked that the place has some significant cocktails to try. Since there is ordering at the bar, you need to pay after every single order. The place becomes very crowded and noisy in the evening so it's hard to hear anyone or anything besides loud music and general noise of people talking. This is general Irish pub thing. If I ever personally went back to the place to hangout and talk to someone, I would visit it during a day.

Delicious cocktail at a great price. Very friendly staff who are happy to make adjustments to cocktails on the menu. Will try the food next time

Place itself is lovey and well kept, sick music and the staff really care about their work. A fella called Xander made myself and fiancé some whiskey sours and they were incredible. Tasted great and he took the time to make them look great

We visited this cocktail bar after dinner. There was a good range of cocktails, but we opted for a bottle of the House red wine which was good quality and great value at £18. It is bar service. There was a good atmosphere. It made a very pleasant end to the evening.

Last weekend I was in Santeria for the first time. It was fantastic!!. I'm from Belfast and I've heard through the grapevine it was some of the best cocktails in Belfast! So, I had to check it out. I arrived down and the buzz was incredible. The Staff was super welcoming, the music was on point! ( Some old-school weapons, Right up my street) but little did I know they had food which I also had to check out! So I ordered their own cocktail "The Santeria" and some of their wings! Oh, my word it didn't disappoint. It was exactly what I was after for a Saturday afternoon, It was impeccable. The wings were proper wings, Juicy and falling straight off the bone + a very tasty cocktail to wash it down. The best thing was, In the City Centre you would pay double what I paid. I joked with the staff (Fantastic btw, a bunch of legends who were so accommodating and were often bantering with all the customers) that they should up the price! Overall, I had a huge smile walking out after a couple more pints for the rest of my night out! But, I've got to say the highlight was the afternoon at Santeria! Thanks so much, guys - Be back very soon! Phil

This is such a cool spot, know they did a lot of work to get it opened and the hard work paid off... great place to relax and the food and drink is beaut! Good job guys keep er lit 😁

Was in last weekend and the atmosphere was 10/10. Had a few cocktails which were all great (especially the bramble 🤌🏻) Definitely be back!

I’ve been here a few times and it was great so recommended to my friends. Arrived and waited a while which is absolutely fine then there was a fight at the door which then one of the persons came inside and behind the bar, obviously works there and the staff left the bar to attend to this drunken man who had just been attacking someone. A “security man” then arrived and knew the individual by name and proceeded to speak to the man in the kitchen. Never seen anything like it, had to leave as I felt embarrassed for the staff who seemed to be abbreviated themselves. 100% will never be back. Made me feel so uncomfortable.

Amazing cocktails! Staff very accommodating and a great laugh! Foods epic just had the frickles (battered pickles) soooo goood!!!

Took nearly 40mins to get our first cocktails (because girl decided to make other tables 4 drinks the same time and bring all together...) so service could be definitely improved. On bright side second one was made really quickly by the guy and both times cocktails were really nice. Had guys playing jazz so it was lovely Sunday afternoon while it was raining outside.

Called in on a Saturday afternoon and was tempted by the menu, small plates of delicious food, had the corn on the cob, amazing dressing, steak to die for, haloumi, tacos, all Amazing, great vibe and great cocktails, definitely hidden gem👌

We visited around 2pm Saturday, was very quiet when we arrived - got busier as we got there. Ordered food and drink quite quickly but unfortunately our order was not put in to the kitchen. We checked in after 45 mins and they were very apologetic. Food was definitely worth the wait though! We shared the meatballs, potatoes and cold meats. Perfect amount for a light bite lunch. Loved the decor, music and atmosphere and despite the wait would recommend and would visit again.

Wow, what a little gem. Called in for a couple of drinks before dinner reservations elsewhere and just loved the vibe of this city centre bar. The staff are really friendly and knowledgeable of their great drinks menu and happy to offer recommendations. Our waitress went out of her way for us a few times and we really appreciated it. Unfortunately we didn't try the food but next time I'm in the city I will.

Samy did a great service! The Food was awsome and the music was great! We had. A lot of fun ! All the time again!!!

A nice bar with great tasting cocktails - Service bar bar staff slow and hard to get attention to get a second or other drink when sitting down - need more bar serving staff to serve tables - hard to even get eye contact with them or the bar staff behind the counter Wifi poor Other wise a nice bar for a cocktail Small improvement would enhance the experience

Awesome cocktails at a very reasonable price (especially considering the quality of em) Music was wonderful mix . Keep your Shazam handy. Can't recommend this spot enough Evening or lunch. If your really luck you will get to meet Ben :) ask at bar ;)

Was in Belfast for a few nights with family and we ended up going to Santeria several times. The atmosphere is fab. There is a great buzz in the whole street here. The service is impeccable. So quick, and the waitress has an incredible memory....

Theres a nice atmosphere and excellent cocktails, the curly haired barman was full of knowledge and bits of chat. Theres always stuff happening outside too so it's a good spot for people watching in comfort, great spot.

Love this wee bar! I love the Drinks selection, their prices, love the cozy atmosphere and I love their knowledgeable Staff!!! I came here with a friend the other day, we felt so Welcome and our Cocktails were Super Yummy Too!! Keep it up Guys!!!

I have been here quite a few times and I really like the place. Their cocktail menu is interesting and the drinks are delicious,the staff are knowledgeable and friendly and the decor is really nice too, all in all great spot and I would recommend...

The best cocktail bar in Belfast city centre Very reasonable prices and a great selection of cocktails and drinks Bar staff very helpful and friends

An absolute hidden gem in Belfast. Nestled between the Fountain and Voodoo in Fountain St, Santeria is a must-visit location. Personally, I prefer to sit outside as there is so much hustle and bustle with the nearby bars and overall the athmosphere in the area...

Went in for a few cocktails with herself, nice vibes and cool settings. we had our first drink and was delicious, went for seconds and it took a while to get them, again the drink was delicious, we were going to order a third drink...

Me and my girlfriend went and had a couple of cocktails. Staff were wonderful and really well mannered and good banter

We had an excellent evening with you guys on Monday - "a quiet night in with the lads" - our introduction and foh/server couldn't have been more inviting. After being seated to our own table (masked up obviously, with standard formalities of track and trace...

Atmosphere is amazing! Great value cocktails, and amazing service. Would highly recommend going! 10/10

Did not eat here, but had a couple of great cocktails. More difficult that you might think to get a good cocktail without over paying. The staff were great - and fast. Recommended.

Called in here for a pre dinner drink. Lucky to get a table and the place was buzzing. All staff we came in contact were really friendly. Music was starting up as we were leaving. Would definitely go back and maybe stay for the music...

A great atmosphere : the bar was buzzing this afternoon. This is a new hidden gem in the “Fountain Quarter”. with great music to accompany your drinks.
