The Loft Coffee Bar & Restauant in Dungannon

Awful experience, my husband was very ill after eating lunch here. I contacted The Loft via their email address listed on the website to report, however no response received. Poor food and customer service! Would not recommend

Hosting a Birthday party for the more mature of us can be difficult - deciding what to get, catering for varying tastes etc. For my recent birthday my daughter suggested outside caterers, but trying to get one in N. Ireland is not as simple as it seems. A compromise was suggested and she decided to get a curry and beef dish from The Loft - this would supplement usual eats. Dishes picked up at the agreed time and kept warm in slow cookers for the "do". Conclusion- absolutely delicious as agreed by all those attending. Outstanding flavour, excellent quality and a plentiful amount. I have no difficulty in recommending The Loft for its food and indeed taking some of the pressure off home catering for whatever event. As an extra comment, my wife and I always drop in for coffee and something to eat when we are in the Linen Green. Food excellent, staff very professional and friendly and the ambiance of the old mill adds to the experience.

Food is always very good in The Loft. Chicken and veg soup today was exceptional. Top quality Rhubarb tart with proper fresh cream. I always get a portion of their potato wedges which are tasty to the last one. Staff are always pleasant and very helpful. Hence the reason, The Loft is always busy.

Very disappointing. Totally overpriced. 38 pounds for two lunches, one wine and coffee and one dessert. Wine glass dirty. Lukewarm by the time we were seated. Seating not organized. Visited Villa Italia two days later with two grandchildren and it was 10 Pounds more expensive For 4 meals. Much superior.

Been a few times recently and always a great selection of food. Always very busy too. One friend had multiple food intolerances and staff were most helpful

I have always enjoyed a trip to Linen Green because of the The Loft and it's amazing food. I have been following a Gluten Free diet since earlier this year and have often been disappointed at the poor choice of GF food available in cafes so I phoned the Loft the day before I went to ensure that they had GF food available. I was assured that there was a choice of GF scones and also GF rolls for lunchtime. The person I spoke to was helpful and told me of a few choices of food available at lunchtime which were also GF. I went to The Loft yesterday looking forward to the raspberry GF scone that I was promised during that phonecall. However when we arrived and asked I was shown one very small plain scone which was tightly wrapped in clingfilm. I said that I had phoned the previous day and was assured there would be a range of GF available but the assistant told me that their GF scone delivery is on a Wednesday and that was all they had left over from the previous delivery. I was extremely disappointed but took the scone (as there was no alternative) which they toasted (seemed quite strange). My mum had one of their normal scones which are huge (possibly 3 times as big as the GF scone) but we were the charged the same for both scones. I think this was the final straw for me! I was being given a small scone left over from the previous delivery, which had to be toasted because it was hard and they had the audacity to charge the same as a large, freshly made normal scone! What an insult. The coffee was also very overpriced (a small teacup of Americano cost £2.50). I am afraid that after many years of wonderful coffee and meals at The Loft, this may have been my last visit. It is not just the disappointment that a basic GF diet cannot be accommodated but the feeling that we are not important enough to deserve a freshly made scone like everyone else. On top of that then is the insult to charge £2.65 for a small, hard, stale scone with jam and butter. I think you can do much better.

On 24 May the Northern Ireland Executive changes the COVID restrictions to allow indoor eating with certain conditions. These include table service only and customer detail to be recorded to allow for track and trace. Unfortunately on Saturday 20 May these conditions were being ignored in the Loft - we had to queue at the serving counter along with a whole line of customers and no contact details were sought. In addition several staff were not wearing their face coverings properly at times including on who had hers pulled down below here chin throughout our visit.

Stoped here twice on our way to and from Enniskillen and had lattes and banoffee. Excellent place with wonderful banoffee. Good social distancing and clean and spacious toilets.

Have eaten here a few times for coffee breaks or lunch. Great selection of food, snacks/ tray bakes, scones etc. Coffee and tea good. But there is always something lurking there ... The apple tart! I bought my apple tart to take home with me - when I looked around the busy restaurant I could also see a number of people who bought (full) tarts to take home. They’re great!

Was visiting the linen green at moygashel. Always visit the loft restaurant for some lunch. Food here very tasty. The eat out to help out was on so we got 50% off which was great..

Very busy little place. Lovely food, great home baking, nice pleasant staff and a great atmosphere. the food is home cooked, down to earth food and ample portions!!

Had lunch here, delicious vegetable soup. Lots of lovely cakes, slices also on offer. Very nice place to visit, with lovely friendly staff.

I called at The Loft @ Linen Green today for something to eat. My friend and I came to shop in the complex. I decided on a Mexican Chicken wrap. I asked was there a garnish with it? I was told it came with Lettuce Leaves and Nachos. Ok. "I dont want the Nachos could I have a couple of pieces of Tomato instead?" I was told quite forcefully "If you dont want the Nachos you cant have anything else with it" I said politely "Gosh thats a bit harsh" I was told if I wanted Tomato its extra and i'd have to pay for them". I said "no its fine Thank you" My friend ordered a salad from another lady (blonde hair in pony tail) which looked really nice. When I saw hers I changed my order to salad also. The above mentioned blonde hair lady changed my order. You are a credit to your employer. Courteous, customer friendly, warm, accommodating. You were everthing your your colleague beside you was not. So if your at The Loft @ The linen Green be sure not to ask for your Nachos to be changed to a couple of pieces of Tomato! Only for the lady who made our salads I would be rating this establishment as a 1! Some staff training on customer service required. Which is more expensive 2 slices of Tomato or a handful of Nachos 🤔

Lunch food lovely and plenty of it. What really let it down was when my child dropped her pound coin under the sofa and we had to lift the cushion to retrieve. There were months if not years of detritus. Mouldy food and sticky bits. Yuuuuck.

Clean, fresh and welcoming. Very popular going by how busy it was on a Monday. Excellent variety of hot and cold food. Good size portions, reasonably priced. Food served quickly. Efficient service. Food beautiful. This place hard to beat

We so enjoyed our lunch at The Loft yesterday.We ate Chinese Crispy chicken with rice and delicious chilly beef with baked potato. Both dishes were cooked to perfection and the sweets offering were pretty special as well. We always take some of these home with us.We watched the girls working in the cafe - they were so busy but Phil still took time to say "Enjoy"and was patient and informative with me as was trying to decide what to eat!I spoke to Libby also who is an excellent cook and congratulated her on her delicious offeringsThere is a very large queue and its sometimes difficult to get your favourite table but in our experience - its well worth waiting forMany thanks to all the staff who work there

Today my elderly mother and i visited here for what was to be an enjoyable end to our day of shopping turned out to be the worst experince we have ever had in a coffee shop.We had selected our tray bakes and was waiting to order our coffee when i told my mum who isnt to fit on her feet to have a seat as i waited on our drinks.My mum proceeded to sit in an area which was sectioned off with 3 chairs which wasnt very visible to the eye and had no sign to say this area was closed.Then what happend next was totally unprofessional and to be quite honest unbeleivable to happen from someone who is serving the public.The member of staff who was taking the money at the till (old lady with the long dark hair )yelled at my mother across the room “that is closed off”then to make matters worse turned to the customer in front of me at the till and at the top of her voice with a face like thunder said “is it not obvious what the chairs are for”.to the other customer.At this point my mother was in total shock and was so embarrased by the way she was spoken to was so upset we had no option only to leave.I will never ever return to this place again i have never had such an experience like this and i travel to many a coffee shop all over the country and this is totally unacceptable behaviour.

Food was adequate, overpriced and of a limited range. The ambiance was poor and the service was disappointing. No one smiled and, as this was a busy period, we felt that we could not relax and chat as our table was required. Very disappointing. I had heard similar complaints before.

Arranged a reunion with two friends in October 2018 and we met here as it was central for us and we were not disappointed, brilliant spot, fantastic food and really helpful friendly staff. Really comfortable seating and ideal for catching up. So good that we returned again in February and again no complaints except a good one..... that too many ppl know about this place so its extremely busy around lunch time!!! but still staff keep things running smoothly.

Had lunch today after a hospital visit. We had hot wraps with wedges and they were divine. Cake counter was very tempting but we were so full after lunch we had no room for coffee and cake. Will have to return for that !

Lovely bright and airy atmosphere. Staff that make it their business to make sure you feel welcome and catered for. Sumptuous breakfast and reasonably priced. Definitely a place to revisit if I’m back this way. Excellent experience altogether.

You cannot get a simple Italian machiattone coffe-type, which is a symbol for Novi Sad for years. Now, after 20 years of having such a coffee, the Loft emoloyed Barishtas who get insulted and refuse to serve you the coffee that way. That is something I have not seen anywhere in the world, and I have travelled a lot in almost all continents. For that reason I avoid this place. The damage is theirs, since they get considerable minus in the till from not having me and my friends overthere often. Luckily there are much nicer places around. The food is fine, but just fine, nothing extraordinary, and sometimes you can wait too long for a service, which is totally uncommon in European cities.

Called in here today with a friend for lunch. Place was busy which is a very good sign. My friend had Chicken Curry and I had Sweet panda Sour Chicken. Both meals came served with boiled rice and potato wedges. Both of us enjoyed our lunch and it was good generous sized portions we received. Couldn’t absolutely eat anything more. This is a great we spot to go to for a spot of lunch when out shopping at The Linen Green. Highly recommended.

Great flans and salads.Very large portions. Staff are efficient but not always friendly.

Very busy but queue moved quickly. A busy restaurant= sure sign of choice and good value. Helpings were enormous , more than we could eat. Staff helped carry cups to table for us and others. Pleasant and helpful, girls observant re. clearing tables.

Absolutely wonderful lunch at The Loft! The staff are so helpful & friendly. We had sweet & sour crispy chicken & the most wonderful homemade puddings. High recommended!

There's plenty of noise without it! Food still excellent - Chilli Beef Stir Fry much better now it's not as sweet.

I visited here in early September for a cuppa with my mum and Dad and my fiancée. We had a very tasty cuppa and scones. Beautiful tea and coffee. Lovely inviting surroundings. I look forward to next time

First time in this place and I have to say I was very surprised. Such a selection of all types of food to suit all age groups. Very well organised staff and plenty of table space. Well definitely be back.

The staff here don't really care. 1 was chewing gum when taking my order. I will never take my clients there again

We called in for coffee but decided to have lunch. Very good food and nice place to unwind . also noce shops around. Overall good experience.

Had a coronation chicken and celery sandwich but sadly the bread was quite stale. Bit disappointing as it came served with green salad so looked very good. Great pot of tea!

Stopped in for an early lunch. Very busy, long queues and not easy getting a table as we had six in our party. Food very good but we found it to be a little on the expensive side.

Linen Green is popular stop for shopping and refreshments, Our party split between cafes to minimise stop time. We choose The Loft and were quickly served with coffee and scones.everyone was satisfied with service and eats. Planning return visit soon.

Four of us dropped in here, mid-shop, for coffee and a tray bake or two. A good selection of tray bakes and the coffee and tea were fine. The only drawback is the time taken to make the coffee, which seemed to be a very inefficient process, where one was busy with the coffee while others seemed to have little to do. But the decor is pleasant, the furniture comfortable and the staff friendly. £11 for tea and buns for the four of us. worth it to escape the shopping for a while.

We called in here early (around 8.30 am) after leaving our car at a nearby dealer for it's annual service. Although the adjacent shops at the Linen Green Centre do not open until 10.00am the café was open. Okay the staff were still setting up the counter with sweet buns etc. and we had to wait until 9.00am before the freshly baked scones were ready, you could have ordered a cooked breakfast, or even a bacon roll right away. Staff were friendly and helpful. As soon as the scones were ready they delivered them to our table. Large Americanos were £2.60 each and our bill came to £8.50 for 2 and 2 scones, making the scones good value at £1.65 each. The scones were tasty and a good size. We would definitely go here again.

Do not find staff friendly. Could not drink my Latte, not properly made, simply was a mug of warm milk, no coffee used worth talking about, and yes it's served in mugs. Everything seems to be rushed whether it's a busy time or not, do not dare take a second longer than you should to decide of the blackboard what you want, otherwise you will get an impatient look or mannerism.

Made a brief pit stop in the Loft whilst the other half was in Dungannon. 4pm, so treated myself to my usual coffee and unusual pineapple bun. Had been there on several occasions before and knew the food to be of a high quality. Quite a few customers in the premises- always a good sign. Served fairly promptly by an unsmiling assistant who directed me to another assistant for coffee. Again completely devoid of a smile - perhaps a corporate thing? She then informed me that as a section of the cafe was being cleaned, I would have to use whatever seats remained - understandable- but at 4pm!

First floor restaurant in the old linen green shopping complex, accessed by wooden stairs, though there is a lift.

Popped in here yesterday later in the morning. Plenty of free tables available. Both of us had coffee, sausage rolls and shared a raspberry roulade which was a very generous portion. Plenty of choice on the menu board.

Curry and beef stir fry both hot and tasty finished off with lemon meringue , so good we took cakes home. All at great prices clean and cheery staff. Recommended.

This place used to be excellent but as with so many similar ventures, when it expanded, it got worse. Food is ok but everything is, to my mind, overblown - scones & tray-bakes are huge, ice-cream comes in incredible rainbow colours - all a tad too much to be palatable, and the soup was awash with salt. Plus, I distrust large jugs of milk left on the tables, for who knows how long. My main gripe however concerns hygiene. I was delighted to see that the girls cleaning the work surfaces were doing so without the aid of the ubiquitous spray bottle (am I the only one who hates having this substance squeezed inches from my face while I'm eating?), but I was less impressed when I watched one meticulously wipe down the chairs - backs & seats - then the table legs and footrests, and then the table tops and cruet sets, jugs, etc. WITH THE SAME CLOTH!!! No, no no - not good enough and not deserving of a 5* hygiene rating in my book

Got a latte and my brother got a hot chocolate which he didn’t drink as it was cold and had...

I like onion, but there's enough already in the hot dishes without more (which I always left) mixed in with...

Love sitting in the window people watching. Great place for lunch or a cuppa. Traditional home made dishes and bakery....

Personal comida fabulosa muy servicial encantador entorno gran selección de diferentes platos y los pasteles de este mundo.

El desayuno era fantástico, la comida era de alta calidad, fantástica elección para café y una delicia, menú de almuerzo, todo casero, excelente relación calidad-precio, este lugar es imprescindible, una buena relación calidad-precio, buen ambiente

Me encanta esta tienda café la comida siempre es precioso. Bandeja de bollos y pastas son grandes y con buena variedad. Postres y pasteles son de ensueño! Bien merece una visita.

Comimos una gran variedad donde elegir. Muchos postres y bandeja de pastas para elegir. Muy fácil acceso para niños con instalaciones de ascensor.

We visit the Loft on a regular basis. The food is really good and service too. I was with my teenage daughter on this occasion. We had soup and a slice of cake and coffee. All really good. However, on asking a waitress who was clearing up for some water I was greeted with a curt "wait a minute" and she returned with two glasses of water with no ice or offer of. She put them down without a word or a smile. A different girl brought our coffees and the service could not have been nicer. Before I left I bought a sandwich to take away and also some caramel squares. The girl who made it up was lighting fast! And really friendly. All in all a nice experience except for that one thing. Pity. It's a great place for food.

The Loft is an excellent place for lunch. The range of food on offer is extensive and it looks and tastes wonderful. In particular the pâtisserie is exceptionally good. We drive regularly from Belfast to have lunch there so I think that speaks for itself.

A group of 4 called to the Linen Green en route to Belfast one SATURDAY - oh must have been around 4pm. Okay, I'll admit that I'm so disappointed to find and report that "little" has changed in over two years - as during my previous visit I found the Loft Coffee Bar & Restaurant absolutely bunged, with a queue for self service running right across the access/ egress point to the place, extending more than half way down the stairs! Oh, and the lift was not in service? To say nothing has changed would be a tad unfair because I notice that an additional counter has been added to accommodate customers looking for a coffee / bun or desert (including the ice cream counter) as opposed to a sandwich / lunch / hot food etc. I shouldn't make comment about the latter as there was no way I was going to stand in that queue - but because of that fact I'd be very surprised if the speed of service / payment at the till has improved! During a previous visit anything purchased was stone cold before we got it to the table - admittedly though, the food does look nice providing you get there at the right time i.e. before the rush. I imagine weekdays,might give a better experience, but then again who knows - as I understand this is a location regularly used by bus tours and outings (generally women's groups) and, it seems like a spot local businesses might support during the earlier part of the working day?It's interesting to read the reviews of this venue - repeatedly we are warned of the extended queue prior to the food counter, of unpleasant staff, and too often I read that procedures to shut up shop begin well in advance of closing time (which incidentally is a personal annoyance of mine)! Realistically though I can't imagine too many customers read the reviews prior to the visit (I might be wrong)?Our Saturday afternoon visit confirmed all of the negative comments contained in the majority of the other negative reviews. Granted we did use the smaller counter which saved time, but tables were cluttered and uncleared leaving little choice other than to clear it ourselves before we took our seats, and that's a bad start to any experience in a restaurant. The coffee I loved - hot and wet; and the apple & cinnamon desert with cream was to die for, though there's no doubt it would have been enjoyed more had the tart been heated even a little. I wonder if others would agree with the suggestion that portion size is reviewed - a smaller size might bring in less revenue at one time granted, but it would mean that we would stop eating earlier, consume less calories, and not feel sick by the time the plate is cleared. I realise that there is an option and I could stop eating, but let's be realistic here - do many people really want to considering the price paid? (I know there are others just like me who simply keep right on eating to the last crumb is gone because the cost is high and we want to leave nothing behind - almost eat or die if you know what I mean - lol)! The proof is in the pudding so to speak = Within the 30 mins I I spent in The Loft, there was so much food left on so many abandoned plates it was really quite scandalous!Perhaps management should consider the wastage factor? Smaller portions could mean less preparation time, less storage space and it certainly would reduce time taken to clear away.A lower price might bring more business, quicker turn around and the reduced cost of a complete pavlova / cheesecake etc. would mean less cost. It would also increase the number of tables which could be cleared, making more available; reduce the time required to scrape food into waste receptacles, even support (in an itsy-bitsy way those folk, including myself who would benefit from loosing some weight in Northern Ireland). These large portions cost more too and who knows, smaller sizes might encourage more sales - it might be great to hear shrieks of glee, awe or amusement at the huge "whallop" of what ever is on the counter, but have you ever considered how many sales opportunities are being missed? There are some wise people around who opt to share, but there are also others who sensibly decline knowing they won't be well by the time they munch their way to an empty plate.Common guys - surely there must be an appreciation that your restaurant is located in an enviable position here - your eatery is always busy, and there's no doubt the Pounds are rolling in but, there is room for improvement in every establishment! Why not take some of the well-intended feedback you receive on board? It would be so good to witness a concerted effort to address the negatives listed above and to reduce the exorbitant prices - even if you take exception to the suggestion of smaller portions sizes?

This used to be a regular place of mine, now its for treats! The food is all freshly made, great choice, from sandwiches/paninis/wraps/toasties etc, to hot food/lunches etc. Then comes the dessert! Any number of amazing, beautiful, mouth watering cakes, fruit pies, pavlovas, buns, tray bakes, ice creams, meringues, chocolates laden lovelies.....i could go on.Can be a bit on the pricey side when you add up tea/coffee/food, but worth the visit for a special treat.

Haven't been in a few years but the food was just as i remembered fantastic, filling and all made inhouse . Not the place for you if you are counting calories.-

In for a quick coffee and ice creams after a spot of shopping. All our visits here have been faultless other than being a little pricy for sweet stuff and possible long queues (if you just hit at the wrong time). Definitely worth calling into.

Stopped for tea, coffee and apple pie - freshly baked on the premises. Staff were very helpful bringing drinks to table as everything didn't sit well on tray. Apple pie was as good as it looked and the ice cream went very well with it.

We called in here recently for a light lunch. Although overpriced, the food was nice. However, we found the staff incredibly rude and unhelpful, we almost felt like a bit of an inconvenience to them! It's handy to pop into when visiting The Linen Green but the staff could definitely improve on their customer service skills.

The loft have very good food- great coffee and the white chocolate and raspberry scones! However, unfortunately I have found the staff unfriendly at times and can be overpriced.

We were at donnellys getting car fixed so to pass time we went down to linen green and I saw thi wee place Called the loft coffee bar so we went in for a wee bite. We were amazed at the selection of food it was out of this world you have to see it to believe me . The cakes and traybakes were Devine. Saw people getting some lovely meals honestly please try this place you won't be disapointed and the staff are lovely and polite and helpful. Some place inside huge seating area and even a lift he you can't get up the stairs. Excellent. Will be back again soon.

Headed down to the Linen Green to see what bargains there were to be had. Went to the Loft Coffee Bar for refreshments. Lovely view over the Linen Green. Great seating with lovely furnishings. Spacious - you never felt you were on top of people in the cafe. The food was awesome - huge slices of lemon meringue, cup cakes literally - not your usual size and covered in fresh fruit, gorgeous scones, ice cream... There's also a lift up to the cafe which is handy for prams and those not able to manage the stairs. Great service too. Will def be back!

The Loft is a huge space with lots of seating. It does attract some bus tours but the service is efficient, the staff friendly and the range of home baked/ prepared food is extensive. We all had the small fry which was excellent value at £4.95. Tea/ coffee is extra. The coffee shop was just a little chilly so wear a warm coat until the space heats up!

If you want a delicious and fresh scone or pastry and a great coffee then The Loft is for you, BUT be prepared to ignored by the multitude of staff behind the counter. I visited recently and except for another couple I was the only person in the queue. There were 6 members of staff behind the counter who were busy chatting, giggling, moving plates around or generally doing nothing. Not one of them looked in my direction and eventually one begrudgingly asked what I wanted. I felt like a real inconvenience. The food is good but management need to have a real look at their discourteous or I'll trained staff

Was here for breakfast , found staff rude , unhelpful , food overpriced Won't be returning , Lots of staff , Not looking after the customer

Food is ok, good variety but very over priced.Food was warm but some of it was just so bland.There was a very large crowd around which may have had a reflection on the food turnover.

One of those morning you're off but have loads to do...get a couple done then coffee & a delicious raspberry & white chocolate scone is on the cards for breakie...followed by a little shopping in the fab linen green. Delicious

We are true locals and this lovely coffee bar, can't beat the delicious lunch and exceptional cakes. However, as much as we love this little place, the menu is significantly over priced for Northern Ireland, at 5.99 for a panini I think Is pushing it a bit. There is also a significant issue with the business during lunch times, however I am aware that this is nothing the restaurant can help with. Even with the faults, this still remains my favourite coffee bar in N Ireland, I'de defiantly reccomend giving it a try.

Called in here while browsing the shops. It was before lunchtime so didn't want anything too heavy. I opted for Americano and raspberry roulade. My husband had espresso and lemon meringue. Very generous portions and delicious.

We are mostly vegetarian and just fancied a light lunch so we were pleased to be able to enjoy a large plate of the various salads which were on offer. Good selection. Well priced.

I love The Loft. Fresh homemade food every visit. A real buzz in the restaurant, and pleasant, helpful staff.I can also recommend their takeaway scones and cappuccino, scrummy every time.

No matter when we go this place is rammed.Pretty much the only eatery still functioning at the linen green.....but it was always busy even when there were alternatives.Hit it at peak times and you can expect to queue to be served.Good selection of snack type foods or full meal menu.....and excellent dessert selection.Maybe a tad on the expensive side....but nothing outrageous.

food is fair but excessively priced, little change from twenty pounds for two sandwiches and two drinks!!My main grumble is the very dated and dark toilets - very shabby and in need of refurb and paint and clean!!

We stopped for a coffee but we were a bit late and the coffee shop was closed but we got a pot of tea and desserts desserts were good and a generously portioned

Food is absolutely lovely. I'm a big guy and can put away a lot of food, so this place for me is costly, but I enjoy great food. I always get extra portions which adds the cost up. But if your out and about, want great food and a coffee afterwards, this is the place. Great selection of deserts also.

Stopped here for a coffee to break up a long journey... Lunches looked lovely and well presented, but I had only went in looking a cup of coffee and a scone... Plenty of choice and ended up with pavlova and a latte, my partner had banoffee and a hot chocolate, both were huge portions and absolutely beautiful... Will definitely return to sample the lunch..

Been here a few times for breakfast, lunch and coffees. Usually an incredibly busy self service restaurant with a wide variety of items on the menu. Hard to find fault except to say perhaps it is a bit more pricey that comparable venues locally.

The Linen Green in Moygashel is a small shopping centre on th eoutskirts of Dungannon where many people go for a bit of shopping therapy culminating in a trip to one of the restaurants before beginning the journey home.We chose the Loft Coffee Bar & Restaurant after checking out the closing time on the web and discovering it was 5.00 p.m which gave us enough time for a relaxing snack.However, much to our suprise when we climbed the stairs to the 'Loft' the staff were well on the way to closing shop even though it was just after 4.30 p.m.We settled for a coffee and a tea and two buns which cost us £6.70 and went to sit at a seat by the window but were told not to go there as the area was closed!We picked another table and were just about to get stuck into the buns when we were nearly swept on to our feet by cleaning staff.clearly who were clearly on a mission to shut the place down.Astonishingly people were still being served tea and coffee and the money was rolling into the till even though it was clear that they were not going to enjoy a relaxing time consuming it.The tea and coffee was first class and the buns weren't bad either but the purpose of the visit was mainly to sit and relax, take a breather before facing the evening traffic rush and it was spoiled.Why on earth allow customers to come in when the main motivation ts to get them out before the 5.00 deadline?To some extent our visit to the Linen Green was spoiled by this experience and we certainly won't be rushing back to the Loft Coffee Bar to be rushed out.

Stopped in for a cup of coffee and a slice of lemon meringue. My wife had a slice of banofee pie. Very tasty! Very nice cafe

Lovely restaurant for lunch plenty of choice of food from hot food to tray bakes and cakes delicious. Staff very pleasant.

Had family lunch for 4. Soup was very nice and clearly home made as it should be. Smoothy was served but then taken back by the staff (Unprompted) as it did not meet staff standard. Good on you for being conscientious. Staff good and helpful to our needs. Vast selection of sandwiches and home made local dishes which all looked very appetising.

This place is our favourite restaurant to go to when go for tea. Portion sizes are great and the staff are always pleasant and show genuine interest in their customers. Cannot wait until we go again!

Used to enjoy coming here regularly for coffee and scones but the place feels like a cattle market these days. Far too busy, the queues are horrible, and service is rushed and abrupt. Once you finally get to the end of the queue more often than not you find yourself with nowhere to sit. Also prices are pretty steep. Food is ok, but can get just as good elsewhere and actually enjoy the experience.

The food is very good with a great variety of choice for everyone. It is a very busy coffee /restaurant shop but queues are something the staff seem well trained to deal with. The variation iis brillant & is always hard to choose what to have. The quiche is lovely home made & today i had a fresh prawn & marie rose sauce wrap & salad which was delicious. The desserts & traybakes are so lovely & again it is hard to choose . If i had one negative point it is the toilets they are awful & for such a lovely eating place do not represent the restaurant. This is an issue needs attention

Called in for coffee and cake. Staff busy clearing up after serving lunches and we were made to feel we were interrupting them. They did have specials on some cakes which made them very reasonable but as the cake was slapped onto the plate and was broken up it was not appetizing looking. Scones tasted good as did the cake but the attitude took away from any enjoyment.

A friend of mine brought me here for lunch for the first time recently. There was a great selection of hot food, sandwiches and paninis and the tray bakes/sweet food looked amazing! It's a comfortable place with a nice atmosphere and gets busy pretty quickly! The staff were nice and friendly. Will definitely come back the next time that I'm in the area.

Decent array of freshly made sandwiches, paninis etc. Also good selection of main courses. Generous portions.Very busy Saturday lunchtime, and quite a queue, though no problem finding seat when eventually served.

Very busy, popular restaurant. Good variety of cold and hot meals. Desserts to die for. Reasonably priced. Combine with a trip around the Linen Green for a good day out.

The most difficult job here is deciding what to choose. There are many options for any preference including gluten free. The breakfast served from 9am is filling and delicious. The baked goods are to die for. A very informal and relaxing atmosphere makes it perfect for any occasion.

I called in her a few days ago at lunch time and left again as the line for service was so long.If calling in during the traditional lunch time rush be prepared to wait in line - they do not offer table service and ask that you do not secure a table until you have paid for your food at the till.However if you can get here a little early or wait until after 2pm, it really is worth it. The food is usually excellent, but I really only go here for the desserts which are hugh.I recommend the pavlova or the lemon meringue. The also have a good ice cream bar which the kids love on a saturday for a special treat.As part of the Linen Green complex this is a great place to spoil yourself with a sweet treat while doing a spot of window shopping.

Very good food great portions and in a nice place. Nice for a couple hours to go for a walk around linen green and have a coffee or dinner or both in loft.

This is my first visit here and the food is excellent. The portions are huge. A lovely atmosphere and staff very friendly. I would recommend eating here.

Had lunch today with my partner. Everything looked lovely, but the portion sizes were enormous and very off putting! I had chicken and broccoli bake, very bland and I couldn't find any broccoli in it! It came with three salads and to be honest they piled the plate high, some people might like that, but it put me off before I had even tried it. The girl on the till wasn't very friendly either, have to say I won't be rushing back!

I meet friends here every few months, and sit for several hours and drink copious amounts of tea. The staff are friendly, and the menu is lovely. Their soups are most delicious. Only fault I can report is that they charged us £1 for a teapot of hot water ( like to keep it hot!), but apparently if we had taken it in a jug, it would have been free! But we'll know for the next time! Just be warned..in the toilets..if you're not quick enough to flush, it happens automatically, and can frighten the life out of you!

Visited with family - have been a few times previously and always impressed - great selection of really good quality food - highly recommend

Ate here recently and its hard to get past the canteen feel of the place. It was VERY busy but the queue did move quickly enough and the staff were pleasant. The food was ok and the portion was a good size. While in the queue I noticed some of the staff moving the pastries and buns around the various displays and they were really pawing the food, without gloves! It put us right off and was a bit of a disappointment as they did look really good.

I can't believe how this place has deteriorated. They do not seem to care about quality of service or food anymore. Used to be great. The upstairs atmosphere is just not conducive to enjoyment

I have been here several times and the food never disappoints. My personal favourite is the chicken and broccoli bake-yum! This place is always busy, but sometimes I feel their ordering system could be improved as this can be very slow and having to stand in the long queue is not ideal for older people or people with children.

Food is excellent, and really well presented. So appetising looking. The sweets, scones etc are large enough for 2 people to share. A busy restaurant which sell quality food.

An upstairs cafe - not sure about disabled access. A great variety of tasty food - not just typical British fare! We enjoyed beef with pepper and noodles. Good coffee, lots of seating, but you can't reserve a table prior to getting your order.It is about half way between Enniskillen and Belfast - s good choice if you need a break! Very close to the motorway and main roads.

Was introduced to this restaurant by some friends from work, and what a little gem that is jus round the corner to me.The cakes are amazing and huge in size there is plenty of choice for food it is all displayed in front of you at the counter so you can see what your getting the portion size is good too.This is a very busy coffee shop so getting a table sometimes can be difficult but worth the wait, for buggies and wheelchair users there is a lift to take you to the upper level

Not very impressed by the Loft staff on this occasion, had average expensive scones, no sign of jam, given pot of tea and told milk was on th tables, no milk, nearby tables no milk just empty jugs. Lifted a used jug and brought it to counter where I saw a 2 litre carton of milk sitting, poured a jug for myself, told by waitress "You work away there" (thanks!) Then upon beginning my tea and a chat, had a girl noisily trailing the heavy wooden chairs next to us away from the tables as she started sweeping the floors, she even pulled the table away right beside where we were sitting, how unmannerly was that! If she had even apologised or acknowledged our presence in any way it would have been something. This trailing and brushing went on right around our table and I see no reason why this couldnt have waited til we had finished, we were only having a scone and a cup of coffee not a 3 course meal - I wont be back!!!
