The Bobbin in Belfast

Called in for a quick brunch to share. Ham and cheese ciabatta. Cut in two. Halves placed on large dinner plates. No garnish of small salad or chips. Was told I would have to pay for packet crisps if I wanted chips!!! coffee and 1 juice. £11 what a expensive lunch. Total embarrassment for a restaurant who had many visitors in that day from other countries coming in for lunch. Will never be back.

Have to say as a Social Enterprise I was amazed at how expensive the menu was at The Bobbin . My friend and I went for a snack around 11am . We decided to have a Cup of tea each and a sausage roll . When I went to pay the bill by card I queried the amount that was displayed on the machine . The amount was a unbelievable £15.80 that was £ 7.90 each for what I could say was a very small sausage roll and an ordinary cup of tea. I may add that the girl who served me was very courteous and explained that she not make the prices that it was her head office . I realised now why the place was empty . Should have went to Greggs .

What a find this was on our trip to Belfast! We stopped for a cuppa and a lovely cake during our visit to City Hall ( this was also so worth it…free entry, great exhibition of Belfast and its history). We returned for lunch and had a bowl of beef stew with bread and butter…. It was absolutely delicious. This is a social enterprise so please support it - food and service first class!

Best cup of tea, best service and best prices in Belfast. Loved it. Everyone was so friendly and the food was delicious .

Saw the banner for The Bobbin on the City Hall railings & decided to visit. Walking to the cafe through City Hall certainly enhanced the experience but overall our visit was a little disappointing. The greeting was unfriendly & were treated as if we had been to The Bobbin before, which we hadn’t. Perhaps the lady was coming to the end of a long shift but it doesn’t cost anything to be friendly. The tea & coffee, plus cake - we were told in no uncertain terms we were too late for hot food - were fine but we came away disappointed by the experience. A very worthy enterprise deserves better.

Had a fantastic lunch in here following a walking tour of Belfast (Troubles tour: walls & bridges) the pot of tea hit the spot & hubby enjoyed his mocha. The coronation chicken sandwich was delicious, a generous size with crisps & salad garnish. Hubby had cheese & ham toasted sandwich, some lovely cakes on offer but we were full. The staff are lovely, it’s spotlessly clean and a really calm space to relax in the city.

We visited the cafe, during our tour of City Hall. The staff were so friendly and helpful. All the cakes were clearly made with fresh and quality ingredients and the prices were very reasonable indeed! Definitely worth a visit, even if you do not want to see around the City Hall exhibition!

had coffee/tea and cake. Staff were extremely pleasant and prices very good.Lovely setting too inside the Belfast city hall.

In Belfast for the day following a family funeral, and whilst bimbling around spotted sign for a cafe within the City Hall. A hidden gem as others have said, in beautiful Victorian surroundings. Cafe is a Social Enterprise worth supporting, my irish Stew was delicious and perfect on a cold day, and proper pot of tea; oh oh, showing my age. Also discovered a fascinating exhibition on Belfast past to present, which I'll do properly when I have more time.

A good place to get a coffee or a snack when visiting or touring the beauty of Belfast City Hall. The prices were reasonable.

This was our first time visit and we were pleasantly surprised. Nice and clean and service was friendly and fast. Good value too.

Was lovely to see an integration of mixed abilities working here. Scones were dreadful and stale. The member of staff who served us was impatient with other members of staff and not overly friendly

Dopo l'interessante visita (gratuita)delle 1100 al primo piano della City Hall ci siamo fermati nel bellissimo cafè al pian terreno: il ragazzo che ci ha serviti è stato estremamente cordiale e simpatico, ci ha persino portato dei cioccolatini (foto) per scusarsi dei pochissimi minuti di attesa necessari per scaldare l'ottimo stufato irlandese che abbiamo mangiato di gusto insieme al pane nero irlandese col burro. Prezzi assolutamente accessibili (15 sterline per due stufati e un'acqua), disponibili diversi tipi di sandwiches, quiche lorraine, oltre all'ottimo irish stew che consiglio, torte e dolcetti di ogni tipo. Accanto alla cassa ci sono bellissimi oggetti realizzati da ragazzi autistici, iniziativa da sostenere assolutamente, ho preso due candele e su una c'era il nome della ragazza che lo ha realizzato (Margaret). Consigliatissimo

Thank you for the most delicious Irish stew and wheaten bread! Fantastic! Special service too! Thank you. 🙂👍

Comi um beef stew + salada, bread and tea por £9.00 Gostei muito! Ambiente aconchegante e agradável pra conversar

Éramos un grupo de 39 que había llegado a Belfast en un autobús para un viaje de compras el sábado 16 de noviembre de 2019. Queríamos comenzar el día con un bollo y té. Llamé a algunos cafés de antemano, pero Piia de The Bobbin Cafe fue el más servicial. Ella me dijo que todos estarían listos para nosotros a la llegada, que era. ¡Qué entorno encantador! Muchos de nosotros nunca habíamos estado dentro del ayuntamiento. El día, fueron Nicola y su equipo quienes nos sirvieron bollos frescos y rellenaron nuestras tazas de té de porcelana con té / café. Pudimos sentarnos juntos y disfrutar de nuestro té sin sentirnos apurados. Un gran comienzo para nuestro día. Gracias Piia, Nicola y todo el personal por una experiencia encantadora. Definitivamente lo recomiendo.

Princess y yo tuvimos nuestra primera "cita" oficial aquí hace dos años, así que decidimos celebrar volviendo a tomar un café. El café estaba bastante ocupado y había una excelente selección de sándwiches, bandejas, pasteles y bollos. Mucho mejor que la última vez que estuvimos allí. Teníamos bollos de trigo y un bizcocho Victoria muy agradable. Capuchino y blanco plano como de costumbre. Una experiencia muy agradable, o. k. era un poco ruidoso pero era la hora del almuerzo y una cafetería concurrida suele ser una buena cafetería. No solo puedes tomar un buen café, sino que estar dentro del Ayuntamiento significa que puedes pasear por las galerías del museo en el edificio más hermoso. Pudimos jugar a la rayuela en una habitación y obtuvimos algunas fotos del viejo Belfast que recordamos de la infancia.Muy recomendable y tómese su tiempo para disfrutar de toda la experiencia del Ayuntamiento.

Having concluded the free city walking tour at the City Hall we headed to the Bobbin Cafe for a spot of lunch. All being from England we felt we should have the Irish Stew and delicious it was. Staff all very friendly and helpful which led to an efficient service. A spacious room in which to eat and relax and left us all feeling happy and contented. Many thanks

Not only is this a very good cafe, but it is helping people within the community. It is a pleasant place to sit and the food is excellent.

Such an attentive staff serving a hearty breakfast and great pastries. I could not clean my plate. I wish that customs would have allowed me to carry home the sausages - so flavorful!

市役所の中にあるカフェはお役所らしく少し障害がある人達の手抜きを知らない手作りを支援している。テーマはベルファストの味なので時間がない観光客としては手軽に北アイルランドのケーキやパンがいただけます。美味しかったので何度かリピしました。

There's a small menu but the food is all first class. The Irish stew in particular was delicious. We came back later for coffee and cake. The slice of cake was massive and the coffee great. Plenty of seating and good service.

We enjoyed morning coffees which were flavoursome and a good temperature. The espresso was very reasonably priced at £1.60 for a single and £2.00 for a double. The cafe is bright and airy and the window table afforded a good vantage point to watch the folks go by. The member of staff who served me was personable and polite and when I enquired about vegan cakes she confirmed that they normally do have one available but unfortunately on our visit they were out of stock.

Whilst in the City Hall - or if passing nearby - the café inside offers a pleasant range of snacks which are served with a higher level of care than you normally encounter. Thanks

Acordé encontrarme con un amigo en el Bobbin Cafe en el Ayuntamiento de Belfast ayer por la mañana y quedé encantado con todos los aspectos de mi visita de una hora y cuarto. El ambiente era relajado, tranquilo e idealmente silencioso para una conversación seria ya que no se escuchaba música a todo volumen. El café, la mantequilla y el servicio fueron excelentes. Este negocio de empresas sociales emplea a personas que tienen dificultades de aprendizaje, y son capaces, eficientes y amigables. Un gran lugar en el centro de la ciudad para café, merienda o almuerzo.

Had lunch here, what a great initiative in supporting people with disabilities, popular cafe. The sausage rolls were delicious, home baked and full of flavour. We also ordered the vegetable soup which was very average

Visited one day while on my lunch break. When I walked in I could tell this was a very popular cafe. I got a plain scone and diet free Sprite. The scone was nice, but a tiny but try. The atmosphere was great and it was lovely seeing people with disabilities gaining the training they needed for future employment. The Now Group is a great organisation and this cafe is a great asset to them. It's giving more people employment chances and better futures. I would recommend this place not just for locals but tourists while they are visiting and exploring the city hall!

Had occasion to visit this coffee stop and was very disappointed. Found the place to be very shabby. Server dropped napkins on floor bad proceeded to distribute them. Need proper hospitality training.

Me encanta la cafetería dentro del ayuntamiento. Un gran café con una buena variedad de comidas. Tuve un estofado irlandés que estaba lleno de verduras, carne y sabor, con un pan encantador. También tenía una bebida encantadora de limón y lima. Hacen una amplia gama de otras comidas. Té, café y pasteles, todo a muy buen precio.

Nuestra primera visita a esta cafetería bien establecida solo puede describirse como decepcionante. Visitamos un domingo como un escape del mercado navideño que estaba lleno y nos sorprendió encontrar la tienda casi vacía. Pedimos dos cafés y dos chocolates calientes, que prometían ser muy chocolatados desde la descripción de nuestro servidor. Los cafés eran grandiosos, pero los chocolates calientes eran acuosos, no estábamos seguros de que se hubiera agregado chocolate en polvo. Después de muchas deliberaciones en la mesa, devolvimos los chocolates calientes y solicitamos un reembolso. Nos sentimos mal por esto, pero lo hubiéramos hecho en cualquier lugar si la calidad de las bebidas fuera tan mala. Había una fantástica selección de productos de producción local a la venta, pero no estoy seguro de que volvería de nuevo a toda prisa cuando Belfast tenga una gran cantidad de cafeterías de calidad.

Hop on hop off bus guía de turismo recomendó el ayuntamiento para el almuerzo.

Ubicación muy céntrica en el Ayuntamiento. Un montón de espacio y decoración austera. Menú limitado pero comida de alta calidad y buena relación calidad-precio. Sopa o estofado, papas al horno, sándwiches, bollos, bollos.

Un gran lugar para un aperitivo o un almuerzo. El personal es muy amable y encantador entorno. Vale la pena la visita solo para ver el interior del Ayuntamiento. La cafetería es una empresa social, por lo que también tiene la ventaja de sentir que está devolviendo algo a diferencia de otras cadenas internacionales de café. Lo recomiendo altamente.

The Bobbin is in Belfast City Hall. Don't be put off by the security, they are happy to have you. It's very spacious, it appeals to an older demographic. The Bobbin is a social enterprise, in other words, it gives the disadvantaged a break. You will be pleasantly surprised by the standard of service. Have a coffee and give someone a break.

We visited Bobbins as part of a tour through Belfast. We stopped in for breakfast along the way. At first, I thought it was odd that we were visiting a cafe inside City Hall, but it didn't take long to turn my opinion around. Although the food is not exotic, it is very British and quite tasty. Our breakfast included bacon, bread, eggs, bangers, and more. The prices were reasonable as well. It is worth checking out.

貝爾法斯特市政廳內的咖啡廳、樓底高、帶點復古味的裝飾。遊覽完市政廳可稍作休息的安靜舒適環境，價格合理的香濃咖啡。

This cafe is inside Belfast City Hall. I stopped for lunch on my first day and the food was lovely and fresh and the staff very friendly. It is run as a social enterprise and seems well frequented.

I'm really pleased to have found the Bobbin as I usually forget about it when walking around town as an option but now that I have visited I will definitely be back. The day I went in they happened to have a vegan cake which was delicious. The coffee was great too!

Stopped for coffee and cake after visiting the city hall visitor exhibition. HUGE slices of cake - one shared slice between the four of us was just about right! Friendly staff.

This is a nice little cafe within the City Hall. There's a good range of baked goods as well as some more solid meals, or just coffee/tea and scones. It can be quite busy but the staff seem to manage it all. A very pleasant location and worth a stop if visiting City Hall which is certainly worthwhile as well.

Perfect for a quick cup of tea and a snack and they do have a wide variety of baked goods and hot meals. I did have the sausage roll and it came with a hot chili sauce on the side.

En una visita de un día ajetreado de la ciudad fue una agradable sorpresa descubrir que el café en una de las atracciones turísticas.

Situado dentro de la ciudad de Hall, la cafetería ofrece comidas genial Bobbin a precios razonables.

Nettes Café im Belfaster Rathaus, welches unter anderem von handicaped People betrieben wird. Leckere Kuchen und vor allem ein super Applecrumble!

I hate criticising people or places. I really do. If you’ve read a few of my reviews, this might surprise you – but sadly, there are just too many establishments out there which are shockingly bad – food, service, price, whatever. Fortunately, there are lots of really good ones too, and I’ve reviewed quite a few of them as well :)

Muy agradable cafetería donde teníamos sopa de zanahoria, pasteles, bollos con mantequilla y mermelada y un café muy bueno y a un precio muy razonable.

Well in a must see tourist icon to be told NO vegan no dairyfree what a shocking state of affairs.

My daughter and I thought we’d try this cafe, mainly for an excuse to visit City Hall. We both really enjoyed our food (my daughter had a salmon sandwich, and I had an apple pancake) The cafe is very spacious and has a lovely relaxed atmosphere. Definitely one to come back to.

This was my 1st visit 2 coffee shop. Was really impressed with size if coffee & scone was huge.really njoyed & will def be back again soon.foid not overtly priced

Have visited this restaurant before on two occasions and was very happy with the food. Called in today and had chicken & vegetable broth with wheaten bread. The wheaten bread was a very miniature small loaf. The soup was greasy and had a very strong taste and I definitely did not like it. Won't be back in a hurry.

Nos detuvimos para café y té, mientras que por el ayuntamiento. Bebidas y tartas Tarta Portuguesa era muy agradable (delicioso). Un ambiente poco menos.

Accidentalmente descubrió este café encantador en tiempo para el brunch en nuestro último día en Belfast. Yo tengo una panadería y pasamos 20 años haciendo tartas y bollos, así que sé bueno cuando uno!

Im Rathaus von Belfast liegt dieses Cafe, eher Cafeteria. Es ist sehr gross, zahlreiche Sitzgelegenheiten. Nichts besonderes. Die Preise sind relativ hoch, der Tee war allerdings gut. Leider wurde sehr stark, schon unangenehm, klimatisiert. Die WCs sind unglaublich schön, wen das Interessiert... :-)

Mi madre y yo visitamos el Ayuntamiento por primera vez ayer, y estaban deseando probar las delicias de la cafetería para desayunar antes de tomar un tour del edificio.

Yo siempre me encantó el café de bobina, dentro de la ciudad por su gran Hall, antigua, su interior aislado personal educado, sus aperitivos y bebidas, su ubicación ideal para un buen freno mientras merodeando por el centro de Belfast. No obstante, esta vez un domingo por la tarde, mientras que vagos estaba disfrutando de mi té; aunque estaba lejos de la hora de cierre, el personal decidió para fregar el suelo. El obnoxius olor a cloro inundado todo, y el ruido de las mesas y las sillas entre los clientes de estar realmente obstruir y grosero. La comercialización de "Suelo mojado" conos amarillos después se sumaba a la parte surrealista de esta actitud inaceptable.

Al haber estado en el magnífico ayuntamiento de Belfast Tour Gratis decidimos de repostaje en la cafetería de bobina.

Llamado hoy con mis tres hijos y mi madre. Mi hijo de 4 años le encanta la rollitos de salchicha gigante! ! ! Mi hijo de 3 años le encanta la de Ricky carretera! ! ! Mi bebé comparte mi estofado de preciosa. Y por supuesto, mi madre tenía un bollo con té. Hermosa ahora que se ha renovado, el personal es genial. ¿Qué más se puede pedir de Belfast como debe ser? Perfecto.

Hemos estado yendo a la bobina por 2 años y me pareció un buen lugar para un bocadillo del almuerzo. Ha sido cerrado por 2 unos meses mientras el edificio fue trabajado en y esperábamos la bobina para ser incluida, pero parece que no nos pareció que la habitación ruidosa y fría.

First visit after refit and we loved it not too open as before but prefer it this way

Have visited the bobbin on many occasions before and after refurb..use it at least twice a week for lunch as I work close by and I know every time I visit I am served a delicious meal in record time!(which is great when you only have an hour for lunch) with always a friendly smile and chat , staff are very welcoming and always helpful even if there is customers lined out the door .. coffee shop is always clean and tidy , food is gorgeous especially the filled hot ciabattas or toasties, scones are also delicious and the choice of cakes on display are amazing and I think I've tried almost everyone! Well done the bobbin coffee shop keep up the good work!

Enjoyed a light lunch here with family.Food was good and service good.Unfortunately work was ongoing in building and this resulted in a bit of noise and meant we had further to walk to get in

Have eaten here regularly until the renovations in City Hall started. Excellent spot for lunch. Brilliant concept aimed at assisting those with learning difficulties. Have always found the food to be of good quality and staff very friendly. Can't wait for it to reopen.

tasty homemade food. bright, airy and good mix of people. maybe not the gourmet coffee paradise for some but for good traditional food, great scones, treats and pastries its a brilliant stop. fantastic after doing the free city hall tour and you can also spend time checking out the small but very informative exhibition right in the cafe.

Tables not cleared... girl behind counter seemed to have issues with hospitality... 'what ever!'attidude...verging on down right rude. Dont think i will be back in here... such a let down!!!!

We stopped off to see city hall ,then found this cafe around the corner little hidden inside and a bit dark. Anyway great food and drink selection prices good as a community project. Staff vey helpful and you get free wifi .

Après la visite du City Hall nous avons déjeuné ici. Le café propose une grande sélection pour des repas légers. La soupe et le pain traditionnel était excellents.

In an interesting building (city hall) and coffee good but surroundings a bit dark and uninteresting which was a shame.

Amazing to be able to go into the City Hall, what a great place for a cafe.No smiles and very empty,found sandwich for toasting and after a very short time they were given to us on a plate with coleslaw. The cheese was not anything special and didnt like being melted it had gone into a big half melted lump.i didnt notice the ham ,no taste at all.My daughter had hot chocolate and a sausage toastie which was sausage in bread,she liked it.The coleslaw was bland .I had water as i was to scared to taste coffe or tea.It still came to 13.50 .Shame,go somewhere else.

This is a"wee gem" of a cafe in Belfast City's prestigious City Hall where I frequently meet friends & colleagues. It offers great lunches, super coffee & free wifi and better still it's a social economy business offering training opportunities for people with learning difficulties. So #buysocial & do try their delicious irish stew!

I regularly use the Bobbin. It's a central venue with good wifi connection. A reasonable range of food and drinks. I also like the fact it is a social economy project. Food is very good - I enjoy the Irish stew and a wide range of traybakes.

This little tea room is situated within Belfast City hall and unlike the vast majority of attraction catering outlets, is run by a social enterprise organisation rather than a large faceless catering company.It really shows.The place is spotless, tables cleared immediately, pleasant surroundings and perhaps best of all, staff who actually want to speak to their customers and help them out.The food was top quality and when we were there, we settled on a selection of sandwiches a smashing coffee and some really nice biscuits. The cakes were tempting but we were good and bypassed these.A range of other items were available and we bought some of their locally produced chocolate bars which have since been devoured and these too were excellent.Perhaps the main plus point for the Bobbin, is the fact that all their profits are used to provide opportunities for people with barriers to employment and learning and this does help to make your visit seem all the more enjoyable.A nice chat with some of the staff before we left made this a venue which more folks should know about - perhaps even using it rather than some of the bigger outlets in Belfast city centre. Certainly one I will be going back to when next in the City.

I go here probably once a month for lunch when I'm working. The food is homemade in the main, good quality and reasonably priced. Located in a relatively remote corner of the City Hall building, it's not the easiest place for a visitor to find without a guide, but it's worth locating. The surroundings are very impressive, as the City Hall is generally and it's a little incongruous sometimes to be tucking in to soup-and-sandwich lunchtime food in such grand surroundings! After dozens of visits, never had a bad experience.

Having done a tour of city hall,we (4) called into the the coffee shop inside the building.The interior was very pleasant, and there were various displays about the room. We settled for coffee and pots of tea. , with scones and some pastries. All excellent, I would point out that a pot of tea contains enough for two persons. Well pleased . Will call again. Recommend.

Went for tea and scones to get away from hustle of xmas shopping.delightful and restful in olde world surroundings. Historical information written on walls and exhibition to while away some time. Tea and scones excellent too.

Do not normally have cause to write disparaging reviews about Belfast eateries, but a visit to The Bobbin changed this! Visited there this morning about 10:30, there was someone setting up, so was open. We selected a table and had a look around to see what was available, there was no acknowledgment of our being there. Accept the lady may have been busy but a cheery good morning and a comment that someone would be with us shortly would have been nice! Anyway after a few minutes of this we decided to take our business elsewhere where we wouldn't have been seen on as an intrusion!

Spent the morning around the shops and Christmas Markets but really didn't fancy eating on the go. So we called into this gem of a place. Through the beautiful corridors of the City Hall this was a great find. I had Irish Stew & the others had Cottage Pie with salad. All was hot and tasty. The stew had plenty of large chunks of meat throughout. We also had coffees which were really good along with an assortment of bakery items. Apple pie great, mince pie great and Christmas fruit slice which was lovely too but might have been even nicer heated. Well done to the helpful and friendly staff. We will be back.

I visited the restaurant in Belfast's beautiful City Hall recently and was very impressed. This is very much a lunch / morning coffee venue but as such it is really good. The staff are pleasant and helpful and the menu varied. One of our party chose the soup of the day and I picked the traditional Irish Stew. Both of these came with a great chunk of wheaten bread and butter and were absolutely delicious. Some places I have visited have stew on the menu and one is hard pressed to find the meat but not here. It was laden with good sized chunks of tender meat and the portion size was good as well. other items on the menu and in sight looked good also and I am looking forward to my next visit to try some of them out soon.

Not great. Badly organised. Often iteems not available. Pleasant surroundings and staff are just ok. Run out of trays, spoons etc. Other much better coffee shops in the vicinity.

Nice surroundings, pity about the cake! Only that there was a queue behind us ....the uncovered cake was cut up into separate slices and dried up ....I should have walked away. And as I thought, the cake was dry and hard...so disappointing. Will not be back. Please cover your cake, it's not rocket science.

This is a lovely place to stop for coffee and is on ground level for those with mobility problems. There is an interesting display on the Belfast Linen Industry with old photos of the "Millies" who worked there. I had a toasted sandwich and my friend had a home baked scone. The cafe is in the beautiful and historical surroundings of the City Hall and there are also good toilet facilities.

Lovely cafe with the extra bonus of being a social enterprise project. They even serve REAL tea! Good food and a good project

This cafe is inside the City Hall. Beautiful surroundings while eating lunch. There is also a well done exhibit about the history of Belfast. Eating at this restaurant also helps special needs adults. A lovely experience.

Lovely ,spot for a cuppa, and a scone, or if your prefer a Ulster Fry ,bright and airy clean and tidy, next time your in Belfast think about dropping in , you wont regret it.

Great wee place within City Hall. Lots of great options soup, salad, sandwiches and you can finish of with a cup of tea and a wee bun! Busiest I've seen it today - glad they are getting the support! #buysocial

I love the ambiance of the bobbin.you can spend an hour sipping a coffee + watching the politicians doing the same or you can read about the social history of our emerging city + be amazed by the resilience of its people.the food is good +there is a reward card to encourage you to return!it is a lovely space to chill + chat.

You can browse the displays about Belfast's history before or after coffee or lunch. I alwayhave a morning coffee here when I am in the city and love the walk through City Hall on the way. Great place for a stop and rest!

Had a pot of tea while waiting for our tour of city hall this is a lovely cafe very light and airy with displays charting the growth of Belfast the staff are very friendly and efficient.

Food was good, lovely setting for lunch. Delicious sandwich which to my surprise can with a couple of accompanying homemade looking salad. Not too bad a value for the centre of the city.Nice clean washrooms too. I would recommend it to anyone for lunch if your in the area.

Very impressed on first visit to Bobbin restaurant in Belfast City Hall. They have managed to create an intimate casual space in very grand surroundings. Lovely menu with light bites or more substantial choices and lots of choice. The staff were very friendly and helpful and ensured a relaxing and enjoyable experience. I was also impressed with the display on the rise of Belfast which was very interesting and extensive. Also liked the frieze around the room which was a timeline charting the history of Belfast as well. All and all a very nice spot to relax and recharge.

Found by accident City hall is a worth a vist one .But the big treat is the catering simple chocolate banana scone home made cake brill had eaten earlier or we would have lots more sae soup etc going out mm typical we found it on last day Please try as these people deserve your trade you can read about it when you go They just have it right ( not as easy as it looks ) Special mention to loo person they are spotless so what you might say but if your are doing a job do it right well done you who ever you are hope boss or some one recognise your worth

the food was nice but it felt like being in a school canteen with long shared tables-bit overpriced too

Lovely staff at the Bobbin City Hall (not) sign says sausage roll and salad £1.95 I ask for my salad and was informed it would be £2.95 for salad, told girl I didn't want to be argumentative but the sign says sausage roll and salad £1.95, she took the sign off and tore it up in front of me lolGo customer service !!!

I called here while at the Christmas a Market, it was after lunch time & the soup & stew were finished. I opted for a sausage roll which you choose wrapped already, then the waitress heated it up, was quite surprised at how tasty it actually was. A lovely pot of Suki tea & a tray bake made a lovely little lunch. Very clean with a nice atmosphere. Also took the opportunity to gave a look around the displays in several of the rooms. Well worth a visit.

never spotted this venue before - a tranquil spot in city centre and located within the City Hall - lots of information displays in the café which add to its environment - enjoyed tray bake and good tea selection - generous area so little opportunity for overcrowding - definitely worth a visit and with a chance to learn something about the history of Belfast - brilliant building

Located in the City Hall this is a good place to finish a tour and it has some nice tray bakes and coffee with comfy seats.It is worth while wandering round to look at the information boards that give you a lot of statistics and information about Belfast's history.

This gem is located at the left hand side of Belfast City Hall. Once inside, it's spacious with plenty of tables. The serving area is long meaning you are not cramped by others queuing. Prices are reasonable and there is plenty of variety in teas (offer Suki!) and coffees as well as good, both prepared and grab & go. Also sells local produce and has an interesting exhibition. I really like that this venture is run by Social Enterprise- NOW Project. Give it a try and you'll be impressed!

Great wee cafe, in the city hall. Nice with friendly staff. Been a couple of times, and they make a good Americano.

Maybe it's better that so few people seem to know about this little lunch-time gem! We have eaten here at least three times and never yet been disappointed. And I'm sure is it just as good at times other than lunch. The location couldn't be more central for any city centre visit. And the surroundings of the City Hall are truly magnificent. The welcome is warm and the food first class. I have a gluten-free diet and have been very pleased to discover that this presents no difficulty. It seems that tourists are the most likely folk to eat here but the locals are really missing out if they think City Hall is just for bureaucracy; it isn't - it's also for good food!

This little gem is found in Belfast's big gem--its spectacular Town Hall. Before or after one of the free building tours, be sure to stop here for excellent soups, sandwiches and salads--all homemade right here. Buffet style. Friendly service and patient explanations of the various offerings.

This cafe is hidden away within the simply beautiful Belfast City Hall. A lunch visit provided a well made thick vegetable soup with wheaten bread @ £3.75 and a salmon salad toasted wrap @ £6.95.A good selection of tray bakes and other cakes for the sweet toothed.A good choice of venue if you are visiting the city hall.
