Shed Bistro in Belfast

The food was lovely,however whenever you walk into the restaurant the whole space was quite smoky and our clothes and coats after our dinner were left with unpleasant smell. Dinner cost us 120£+so you’d expect a better ventilation system in place when you’re out for a special meal.

Very mediocre We went here for Sunday lunch with a friend. We found it to be very over priced and the food very underwhelming. We all had the Sunday roast, the Yorkshire pudding was burnt, the gravy was a watery liquid on the plate. The food had not been seasoned, as I had to salt it twice. As for the service, it was non existent they took our order and served our food and that was the extent of the service. When we got the bill a service charge had been added on automatically, we paid in cash and there a little bit extra and the waitress did not return with our change. This was very presumptuous that we did not want our change back and therefore ended up leaving 2 tips for very poor service. The waitress seemed to disappear so we got fed up waiting and just left and decided we will not be back. Overall, a lack lustre over priced dining experience.

Great kitchen. Noisy. Pricey and poor management

Steak night Wednesdays. 2 starters. 2 mains. Bottle wine.£60 for 2. Good value. Need better choice of house wine though. Also very warm in restaurant. Staff friendly and efficient. Now up to £70! Food and service still great. Don't think many people could afford this mid week. Very quiet tonight

Visiting from Barbados, dined with our friends who are regulars at The Shed … absolutely top class food, closest restaurant home to compare this too would be The Cliff, Barbados (one of the top restaurants in the world). Truly wonderful experience dining here, presentation of food was amazing, service was first class. Next visit to the UK will 100% include a trip to Belfast to dine at The Shed Bistro (and see our friends 🤪)

Absolutely the best meal we have had in Ireland in a week. And the staff was so accommodating!

Great meal and wonderful service. Best steak I have had in a long time.

Absolutely fantastic, superb staff who were happy to accommodate a large group ordering a variety of starters, snacks and mains Tapas style before Belsonic. So good popped back in and was accommodated without a reservation for desserts and coffee.

I was hungry and forgot to take a picture... I ordered chicken. It was absolutely delicious. My husband ordered lamb and he liked it a lot too. The staff are very attentive and friendly. Just a complaint. They don't have Guinness... What a terrible thing.

Horrible experience, AC was off and it was very warm. Waited ages to get our starters. Served a low quality cheap sirloin steak that was prepared well done despite asking for medium rare. Will never go there again and won’t recommend that place to anyone. They just ruined our date night.

Delicious food, great service. Cozy atmosphere. Seabass and salad were delicious. Sticky toffee pudding was fantastic!

Delicious food, lovely staff with deaf-awareness, great dining spot etc. Only one thing is that they need to build up the kitchen wall or get a better and stronger air ventilation because of the smoke/steam coming out of the kitchen, affecting our sore eyes.

Great spot. Gorgeous food, maybe the best starters in a very long time! Definitely will be back!

An overall very disappointing night after travelling here after hearing great things. Multiple steaks came overcooked The chateaubriand pails in comparison to the likes of Deane's Meatlocker and is extortionately priced at £75 for 500g. There is a £3 per person "cakeage fee" for staff to cut up a cake that you have brought to the restaurant with you and serve a chunk of ice cream that had clearly been refrozen repeatedly. First time I've ever been to a place in Belfast that enforces such an outrageous policy. The cakeage fee was also immediately announced the second that they seen the homemade cake which completely deflated the experience. At the end we tipped and one of the staff members forgot to charge one of us so WE went back and got them to pay. After we got our coats and incredibly rude manager accused us of not paying despite the amount remaining on the bill being exactly what we just paid for after they had forgotten one customer. After being accused several times of not paying the manager finally realised their mistake. Did she apologize? Absolutely not. In fairness another member of staff came to check on us afterwards to find out what happened and apologised. Atmosphere is generally good although the restaurant is quite smokey although this is to be expected. Such a shame as all the other staff members were lovely apart from the one woman.

From the moment we walked in we were looked after extremely well. My Coeliac wife had multiple strictly gluten free options available from the menu. The Shed also has a separate fryer for skinny chips and coupled with their rump steak we had a wonderful meal. All the Shed’s staff were totally clued into allergy requirements and at no time were we concerned. This was five star food, five star service and a five star experience. We will return very soon!

First time in "Shed" great buzz for a friday in Feb. Staff are so attentive and friendly, food and atmoshere superb. Especially the rump steak. Estrelle beer a bit special aswel. Wil definitely b spreading tthe work⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Not worth the money..over hyped..

Very good food from a very friendly restaurant staff. Lovely lunch with the family - thanks!

Had a Christmas dinner and sticky toffee pudding. Absolutely exquisite food and lovely friendly staff.

We have eaten here before the early dinner menu is very good.Went on Saturday night no early dinner menu we ordered the steak sandwich. The bread was burnt and the stake was tough and £8.50 for a glass of wine come on this is the Ormeau Road.

I went to Shed Bistro on 3/12/23 with my friends for dinner. The food was amazing & staff were very friendly & helpful. They showed us to our table & we were seen to as soon as we arrived. Shed Bistro is on The Ormeau Road here in Belfast & is well worth a visit. Stephen Acton.

Great food, excellent service. Carmel Ann super

Fantastic dinner, wonderful staff, and a lovely atmosphere. I'll be back.

Great food & atmosphere. We were there for our son's 30th birthday, and we had a great night.

Nice environment and efficient service. Overpriced

First visit tonight. Absolutely fabulous food and excellent staff. I can highly recommend and will definitely be back.

Always great food and always busy, happy to be a returning customer

Lovely snack and great friendly service

Really enjoyable lunch at Shed. We hadn't booked a table but staff were very accomodating. Excellent service and food was delicious. Good menu choices and didn't take long to arrive.

Met here with some old school mates. Was treated to 3 excellent course's. Hummus starter, filllet steak main, pavlova finish. Mammy makes my standard of pavlova,but this was next level sorry Mum. Hints of lemon and vanilla soo darn good. 👍

Wonderful restaurant. So lucky to have such an excellent restaurant on the Ormeau Road. Food super wine super, staff super.

Marathon relay team met here for dinner on the Sunday of the busy bank holiday weekend. Food was fantastic, a nice spacious table was provided at the front window, staff were absolutely brilliant, and would very much recommend for Sunday lunch, or probably any meal for that matter.

The stakes were perfect, medium rare was really medium rare. Can recommend this steak restaurant to everybody

A recommendation when visiting on business, just wow! Unable to find fault with anything. I just wish the Shed Bistro was closer to home. A real hidden gem. Go visit.

Great experience tonight. The food is amazing. I had the chicken with dauphinoise and green beans. Omg it was delicious. My friend had the Lamb, served pink and to perfection. We had the apple tart, just devine. The front of house staff are lovely, accepting my out of date voucher, without question. The waiting staff are wonderful, I think we had 4, they were all great. Thanks for a great experience Shed.

Great steak night offer, very tasty and value for money

My first visit for lunch, mid week so plenty of space but still a good atmosphere and a good choices on the menu.

The food and atmosphere were great, but I found the prices a little steep. Nevertheless, this is a great spot for a relaxed lunch with good service.

Had a good food experience here,really well prepared and presented meal ,great wine pairing with food that was recommended by knowledgeable staff. Highly recommend going here for any occasion. Worth every penny .

Great food. portions not large but great flavours.

Absolutely fabulous! From entering Shed Bistro to leaving was a wonderful experience. Host was fabulous & knew a friend's taste, and needs (very fussy). Restaurant is spotless with a well curated wine & cocktail list. Also, they have cocktails for drivers which is brilliant! Looking forward to visiting again. The dishes we ordered was executed to a very high standard. Well done Shed Bistro!

Excellent choice of menu good quality products good service recommended. Alfredo

Shed Bistro never fails to provide excellent food. The food is literally out of this world - we have been many times and have never been disappointed. The service is exceptional and they treat their customers like royalty - nothing is a bother. If you haven't been to this gem of a place - you're missing out big style. Keep up the great work Shed Bistro 👍

Very overpriced, £10 for a small glass of wine, food lovely but not worth the money.

Food is amazing and the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable

Great atmosphere food good standard service excellent.

Tasty lunch. Many interesting dishes available on the main menu but I'd have liked a little more choice in the lunch one. Staff very friendly & attentive.

Really first class in every respect. Superb steak! Great staff too.

Good atmosphere, great staff, but food a little pricey (IMHO).

We went on a steak night, only rump was on offer but it was cooked and rested perfectly, it was absolutely packed out, so very noisy and possibly they could do with someone looking at their extraction fans because it was almost choking.

Had such a nice time. We were able to order on the patio, no questions asked (not always the case in Belfast) and they even offered us blankets. The food (steak frittes and fish and chips) was excellent. They brought out a bottle of filtered water. Craft beer option was delicious. Overall, all the service was exceptional. If you're COVID conscious and want to eat out on a patio, this is a great option.

Service, food, drinks and atmosphere here was exceptional. Staff where wonderful. We went for Sunday lunch and will definitely be back to try the other menus and make our way through the cocktail menu.

Top quality food and staff. I always roll out of here like a bowling ball. Their sister restaurant Blank is also outstanding.

Fantastic food, drink and service. We had young children with us and they also lapped the food up. Staff were really attentive and kept them entertained.

Steak sandwich was very good. Great service as expected for price

The best meal.I have had for a long time. Couldn't fault it. The atmosphere was beautiful and the service was indeed 5*. Definitely will go back.

I couldn’t have found a better place to cure my past night’s debauchery. Ordered the braised beef cheeks with seasonal vege and a grainy mustard mash. Was an orgasm to my taste buds. Got the cheapest Argentinian bottle as hair of the dog. This was pleasantly crisp and refreshing and went down well. Staff were absolutely brilliant, cute and attentive. P. S: loved the looked of the chefs through the window. Especially the lady with the side cute and bling top hair. Thank you ever so much for the brilliant service. 💚

Food and service was amazing and very affordable.

Great steaks, very accomadating. Host looks remarkably like Tom Hardy!

The food was delicious! The waiter was most helpful and recommended a nice wine for it as well

Me and my wife went to the streak night last night, we had been before lockdown and it was outstanding but I had other people telling me recently it’s not as nice and the streak was Chevy, so went last night for the streak night and it’s went down hill the chips where not nice teased like they where reheated and the streaks where Chevy not be back as don’t know what happened but it use to be better and Wednesdays use to be busy it was not busy which people aren’t going back which says it all.

Great quality food and a good selection. Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff.

Yet another great meal at Shed last night. Tasty food and friendly service. Thanks to all the staff. Looking forward to my next visit

We've eaten a few times and the food has consistently been delicious, with a good range of dishes. Service is also great, the waiter was so helpful and lots of fun. Recommended.

I live in New York City and have been coming to Belfast for several years. After eating here tonight, I don't know why the Shed Bistro is not listed among the best restaurants in all of the Belfast tourist guides. This place was simply outstanding. Great wine list. Superb food. Extremely professional and hospitable staff. Perfection. One of the best meals I've ever have in the nearly 7 or so years I've been coming to Belfast. If you're an American traveling to Belfast, do not leave the city without eating here!

Shed has a beautiful aesthetic. It feels classy when you walk in. Staff were helpful and showed us to our seats as soon as we arrived. Comfortable seats and it had a cosy atmosphere which was appreciated. There are so many restaurants that think they're a nightclub. The background music of other diners conversation was preferable. The food was delicious, we had bread with an olive tapenade and a sweet salsa verde which was lovely. Rabbit loin for main was tender and packed full of flavour especially when paired with the black pudding and contrasted with the risotto. A fantastic meal, the only thing that knocks it off a five star is they kind of forgot about us once we had finished but they were busy and maybe another bit of rabbit in the main.

Never fails to impress on the quality of food,service and atmosphere

food was really lively and staff great

My favourite go to place. Staff chatty and friendly - food and service second to none!

Fantastic food, superb wine and friendly attentive staff. You couldn't ask for more

Food excellent, wonderfully presented. Staff were friendly, helpful and attentive. Really wonderful experience for our first visit to Belfast

Four adults and two children had a very very nice meal in the Bistro yesterday evening. Each adult ordered a different meal from the others and the comments from all were " excellent ". I would thoroughly recommend the Shed Bistro for an eating out experience. The menu was varied and as well as some standards there was also some more interesting options. I hope to revisit soon.

A great place with fantastic food.

My friend and I walked up the entire Ormeau road looking for a coffee on Thursday evening. Every place was closed and or closing, including Shed Bistro. But unlike the others, these guys very kindly gave us a table and served us coffee. You really cannot be bad to that .

We met up with a friend at Shed Bistro and had a great evening. The venue was lovely, the staff were very friendly, the and the food was fantastic. Highly recommended.

Excellent food, excellent service. Somewhere you could go for a big celebration or take your parents for Sunday lunch, and know that everyone will be happy. Really relaxed atmosphere. Would highly recommend.

I was there last Friday night with my two friends and we had a wonderful time. The Romanian waiter (sorry I forgot to ask your name!) looked very well after us and made our night a really fun one. The food was delicious and so was the mocktail they especially made for me. Thank you so much, we'll be back!

The food was very tasty however I caught Covid here due to the tables being ridiculously close and management letting someone cough all night without saying anything hence the 1 star.

Prawn linguine here was really good.

Lovely food, great people, relaxed atmosphere

Great food and drink. The service is second to none

Had a fantastic mother's Day lunch. Got a lovely table with great space for your little 11 month old! Staff were friendly and attentive and the food was superb. Would highly recommend

Food was excellent and the service was friendly and prompt. First time I had been in since it had been extended. We had a really nice time and will definitely be back.

What an amazing spot!!!! Was greeted by an amazing host and the waiter was truly exceptional. Highly recommended and will be sure to be back. Thank you.

Lovely lunch great decor and staff are very friendly and attentive.

Managed to fit a party of 7 who turned up without booking. Lovely staff & seriously yummy food, especially the veggie falafel cake. Will most definitely return.

A lovely meal as always in Shed and waitress staff courteous and professional. Restaurant was busy and the noise of conversation from other diners took away slightly from the dining experience .

Place obviously very popular. Good atmosphere. Menu was diverse. Staff helpful. I'm no foodie, but the food was very good. Though, guys, Sambuca in a wine glass ??? Come on !!!!!!

I really like Shed and have been back many times. Enjoyed an absolutely beautiful meal there this evening and thought the new menu was great. The Celeriac Wellington seemed like a bit of a risky option but it was exceptional!

Great food, great staff & atmosphere

£4.80 for water . Menu poor . Starter and dessert let them down the most and over priced cocktails

Had the pleasure off going to Shed Bistro this evening . All I can say was it was the best experience for me and my wife and daughter. The food was superb , the staff where magnificent ,value for moneyand such a great setting .

This place serves amazing food, truly great quality and a great atmosphere to go with it!

As a table of 8 last night we couldn't fault the meal nor indeed the staff...they were outstanding !!

Fantastic food at really reasonable prices. Service is very poor with rude and abrupt waitresses.

Another lovely meal at the Shed Bistro, and great staff.

Excellent food, excellent staff what more do you need

Excellent quality of food and service. Not quite 5 star as the vennison loin was tough.

Lovely atmosphere food was fine for myself and friends but my husband found the menu quite challenging as he's gluten intolerant. Cleanliness and staff 100% .

Early bird menu really good and good value
