Good food (that potato and leek soup was pepperpowered warm), good service. Lovely old building. And Guinness of course.

Very warm welcome from the barman, we are here now and thought this place deserves a top review for the great friendly service, and the guiness is perfect even better than kellys round the corner which I found had a bitter taste.

Disgusting. No other words. Burger with frozen meat, dry to choke. Vile meat, overcooked bacon. Bad bread. Frozen fries. Three pieces of salad without seasoning. To escape without regrets.

We were asked to leave because we wanted to have a drink with our child at 6 am, I find this unacceptable and ridiculous.

We were just looking for a place to play cards and have a pint. Other customers and even the staff watched us disgusted and threw some comments. If you don’t want tourists you should probably state it at the front door. Maybe fine for locals but not to recommend for tourists.

Llegamos tarde a comer (para los estándares del país) pero no hubo ningún problema. Tienen menú del día muy completo y variado (un plato 11£ y dos 13£ bebida y postre a parte) además de que la ración es contundente. Comida casera, buenas cervezas, buen ambiente y unas camareras a cual más agradable y simpática. Si es posible, prefieren dinero en efectivo pero no hay problema por pagar con tarjeta. Había menú infantil.

TOURISTS DO NOT ENTER!!! Went in as I was working in Belfast. (They heard I was English). Orderd a pint of Guinness charged me 4.50 for 3 quarters of a pint that was deliberately poured wrong and slammed on the bar with it spilling over the edge and going barely above the Guinness label. worst pint I’ve ever had would rate 0 starts if google would let me. Do not go to this pub even if every other pub in Belfast is shut.

We are regular customers at cuffs. An booked a meal for a birthday celebration for 9 people on Sunday 29th September 2024 @4.30pm. On arrival we were told that our table was booked for 5.30pm. Which was not the case. They seated us at 4.25pm. Four of the party had soup. Which they finished quick enough. Despite this. We had to finally ask at 6.15pm if our mains would be much longer. When they eventually did bring them out. One of the meals was wrong turkey and ham with gravy and should have been peppered sauce, one came (chicken goujons) an were eaten before the side that they came with was brought to the table. The final meal (a steak) (was brought when rest of the party were nearly finished there meals) and it to was wrong. Chips, instead of mash and pepper sauce instead of gravy. People who came in much later than we did, were served (3 courses) and left. Before all our party had received there meals. Not once were we asked if we would like more drinks throughout this time. Despite arriving at 4.20pm. We were the last to leave restaurant due to this service. All of us only having one soft drink each. This was very disheartening. I have only ever left good reviews for cuffs. An had recommended here to my friends. Hence why it was booked for a birthday celebration.

We went to the Merchant Hotel for a pre dinner birthday drink as a treat around 4.30pm our dinner was booked for 5.15pm. Our table had the reminants of the previous party, empty glasses and half eaten nibbles. A waiter came and took our order but didn't bother to clear or clean the table. He then took an order for a couple beside us. The couple beside us were swiftly served a pot of tea with nibbles and glasses of water. At 5.05pm I went to the bar area and advised we haven't received our order and we were ready to leave. The drinks arrived at 5.10pm delivered to the drink stained table which we literally had to drink in one go as we were going to be late for our meal and over £30 worse off! Lots of suited staff walking back and forwards looking important but not really doing very much. Maybe when you see customers looking around for assistance you might want to try and help. Service appalling for a Saturday afternoon, dread to think what the evening service is like! Disappointing start to a birthday celebration.

Went on Wednesday 29th Nov. Food was amazing as always and the two girls serving were exceptional. My son is special needs and they interacted so well with him. He is non verbal (one word answers sometimes) but they asked him what he would like and he replied chicken. They were extremely helpful,pleasant and very welcoming. So thank you for our experience as we don’t get to do family meals often.
