I came here with friends and was not impressed by the menu. It is just pub grub . I did not enjoy the food that was served.

We waited a few minutes on arrival, even though it wasn't yet busy. Steak and chips excellent, cooked exactly as requested. Onion rings could maybe have done with another minute in the pan to really crisp up, but that's to carp.

We were the only people in there after 9.30 pm apart from a couple of old men. They turned a few groups away while we were there. They closed the shutters on us even though they do not close until 11pm. I understand they don't want to keep the bar open for not many people but we were still paying customers, and they had turned away paying customers. Rude service, will not be back.

Very disappointing, will not be back, would not recommend. Had to ask for cutlery, no-one asked if everything was ok, no-one asked did we want a desert or tea and coffee. My friend didn't want the bbq dip that came with the meal and asked to change it to another sauce. The girl made such a big deal about it and charged her for the difference sauce. It was as if the staff couldn't wait to get us out. The girl made a big deal when we all wanted to pay separately. She didn't have a clue. Had to go find a calculator to work out what change to give. Not a great overall.

Called in here whilst out on a cycle along the greenway. It had a really nice relaxed friendly atmosphere and was nice sitting out in the sun until the rain started. Of special note was the superb guinness poured by young chap behind the bar who was excellent at his work. A really good pint which had be stay for 3 more than planned.

This is great place to have a romantic dinner for 2 or a family dinner. It is a good bar to catch up with friends and have a nice night out. When you walk into The Poet you don't feel out of place or people are looking at you the way you feel sometimes in other bars. Staff are really friendly.

Used to love the Poet but sadly the service now is very poor not enough staff to deal with customers also seems to be no Atmosphere any more, used to have a good buzz in there not now more, seem to cater more now for people eating seem to have forgot about there loyal regulars who have been supporting the Poet for years.Poet Management pull your finger out.!!

Saturday night. Last minute decision to go out. No problem getting a table. A little noisy as football team in, after their match. Felt their choice on menu had downsized a bit, but still served tasty food - Starters Prawn cocktail and Breaded Brie followed by mains - Peppered Chicken Stack on mash , Steak Sandwich/ pepper sauce on Ciabatta with Skinny Chips. White wine choice. Staff friendly and attentive.

Unfortunately nowhere near as good as the other wagamama in victoria square Belfast. Had the firecracker meal which had lovely flavour, but the sticky rice was very hard and dry which is not the way
