Divine beyond words! I was lucky to be treated to dinner at home restaurant, by my work. We ate there on a weeknight, and I had eagerly eyed up the menu beforehand, but it all sounded so good, I was still none the wiser as to what I was going to have before I got there. It was my first visit and I have to say I absolutely love the ambiance of the restaurant. Lovely rustic interior, it really suits the name ‘Home’ and conveniently located in the city centre, it was super easy and hassle free to get to. In the end, I decided to go for the Fishcake and pureé starter, followed by Cod and crushed chickpea main. The food was out of this world, almost to the extent of wanting to lick the plate, it was so good! Great selection of time too, fantastic restaurant!

What can I say about my Home experience? Let’s start with the good bit, that’s the food. They have a huge range of healthy options. I went for frittata and feta salad which were from the fresh deli section. I didn’t expect to like it as much as I did if I’m honest. The one thing that threw me off was being asked what I wanted as I approached the deli — make sure you decide in advance! We sat at the window looking out at rainy Belfast. We choose these seats mainly because it was so busy at lunch time. Although I’m glad we sat here as we got to see some interesting characters passing by! Home is great, somewhere I’ve never eaten before but I’m now keen to try their evening offerings.

I’ve been to Home once for lunch and once for dinner. I was very worried after reading reviews about them not understanding gluten free or being rude about it. They must have listened to those reviews because I had an excellent experience here on both occasions! The staff are so friendly and helpful being professional but also able to have a laugh. The time we were there for lunch a few had pre-ordered sweet potato fries and the waiter came to tell us they couldn’t do them: «I am devastated to tell you that following a quality check this morning we can’t offer you sweet potato fries. I know this will be a blow to some of you but we will do our very best to ease you through this process.» Very impressed! Now on to the food. At the lunch I had a gluten free pulled pork bap. Wow! It was huge and so filling. It tasted so good I wondered was it gluten free but yep definitely as I wasn’t sick afterwards. Amazing just try it! For the dinner there I had salt & chilli squid for starters with the herb roasted chicken for mains. Finished off with a cheeky tobleroney cocktail. I highly recommend this restaurant :-)

I had a Vegan meal in Home not that long ago. I have to say, massive Kudos for Home. It has a whole range of menus ranging from vegetarian and vegan, to slimming/healthy eating. I find that sometimes having a choice of menu can be a detriment to the food, as you are always going to get chefs who specialise in one thing or another. I have to say not true with home. I can only comment on what I have had but I’ve heard on good authority from friends who have eaten of several of the menus that the food is excellent across the board. I had a lentil dhal style dish with a flatbread and it was one of the best things I’ve eaten in Belfast. Simple tasty and elegant. I’ll definitely be back as its a nice place, comfortable to eat and an amazing selection of foods. 5 Stars all round.

Yesterday was another absolute stinker of a day and I was ridiculously early for a meeting in town so I called in to Home and met a friend. He was having lunch and but I opted for a just a coffee. Home really does feel like Home — there’s a fantastic ambiance to the place. Even though it was busy and there was a buzz of chatter it was still peaceful. Home is split in to two clear parts. A deli for lunchers on the go and coffee drinkers like myself and a restaurant area for those who are looking for a finer dining. For the restaurant, that was very busy yesterday, you have to wait to be seated but for the deli you can grab a seat and queue up at the counter. I went to the counter with my pal who was eating and the healthy options were great, all sorts pf greenery. We sat ourselves at the window and watched the world go by. As mentioned it was a really nice atmosphere and a great spot to unwind at lunchtime. Sometimes these sorts of places are manic but things couldn’t have been more different here. The coffee was great too — strong and slightly bitter, just how I like it and at £1.90 it was a snip. I can’t wait to get back and try the food — when I do I’ll do a review update.

Home, sweet home! Ah well, I’m totally impressed by this restaurant. Great spot in the middle of the city, with a very pleasant atmosphere: high ceilings, lots of space with elements like a fireplace and chalkboard menus — just my type of restaurant. Staff is excellent and their menu is impressive with dedicated gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian and skinny dinner(and a combination of these e.g. GF skinny) options. I went for a Vietnamese Crispy Duck with a Mango & Chilli Salad the other night and it was possibly the best salad I have ever had! Definitely in my top 3 tastiest meals I’ve had in Belfast, if not the number 1! Another entry on my wee list of «I’m gonna take my friends here when they visit». Possibly won’t wait till spring though, I’m dying to try other meals from their menu!

Home is where you’ll find good food and good service. They boast one of the only really great vegan menus in Belfast. But this isn’t the only reason to eat at home. I feel the menu is unique in Belfast, providing a healthier, but no less tasty option to its customers. That combined with the friendly staff make home a great place for a well rounded meal.

I’ve spent quite a few excellent evenings here and never been disappointed. The menu is an eclectic mix with something for everyone including good vegan/veggie options if required. The deli lunch counter is great value and the hot n sour soup cures all ills! Great service and interesting décor all adds to the dining experience. My favourite city centre eaterie and one I go back to again and again

They say it’s where the heart is. Home is perfectly located in the heart of Belfast only a 2 min walk from City Hall. Home caters to your every meal with Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner menus available. The evenings during the week are quite at home which is a contrast to lunch times. The menu in home has everything from sinful burgers available to more sophisticated fish dishes. There is also an extensive wine menu available making Home a comfortable retreat for any person dinning out. Oh they also do take away breakfast and lunch meals so if you’re in a hurry you can grab something from the deli counter.

Beautiful food and lovely staff. Best vegetarian selection in NI. The day deli for lunches are a must too!

Recently went here for lunch after suggesting it to a group of friends. Great menu on offer, very difficult to actually choose what I wanted to eat. Prices are very reasonable for a lunch time menu. Staff are absolutely fantastic. We sat outside because it was a bit of a humid day, so indoors was quite overwhelming. Had this niggling worry in the back of my mind that we would get forgotten about whilst sitting outside, but we had someone out every 15 — 30 minutes checking to make sure we were okay. Order was taken quickly, food and drinks arrived on time, staff members were happy to have a chat about the restaurant, particularly how it is popular with celebrities due to its vegetarian and vegan options(Charlie Hunnam, of Sons of Anarchy fame, was eating when we were in that day). The food itself was great. Portions just the right size to leave you feeling satisfied at the end of your meal. I opted for the Chilli Beef with Wasabi Mayo as a starter. Delicious crispy beef with a nice satisfying heat to the mayo. Pulled pork sandwich(which I have had on previous trips to Home) was piled high with pork and slaw, with a generous portion of crispy and fluffy fries. Bonus points for the entertainment provided by two local Belfast lads who were intent on stealing the very expensive bike that was chained up outside by one of the restaurant staff. Seeing Belfast’s finest chase after them on Police bikes was quite the sight to behold. Lunch and a show, couldn’t ask for anything more. Will be back soon.

Home food is delicious — and I am specifically referring to their dedicated vegetarian and vegan menus. The first couple of times I ate there I had the standard menu and was not overly impressed. I eventually realised all the people recommending this restaurant to me were vegetarians. So I ventured onto their veggie menus and it has been a revelation. Perhaps some of the best food I’ve ever had. So far I’ve tried their Salads, Sweet/Potato Fries, Salt n Chilli Tofu, Aubergine Coconut and Lentil Dahl, Aubergine/Roast Pepper and Feta Slices and Breads. I’ll not be happy however until I’ve worked my way through everything on their veggie menus! Great food.

This place really exceeded my expectations. My friends and I decided to check it out as we wanted to investigate the selection of vegan options on the menu. At first glance, I wasn’t particularly impressed-the offering seemed somewhat generic. We ordered the salt and chili tofu, tuscan chips, the broccoli salad, the salad with the couscous(forgot the name), and the hummus appetizer. The salads were the most delicious, interesting, flavorful salads I have ever tasted in my life. All of the greens tasted extremely fresh, and everything was perfectly seasoned. The tofu was perfectly baked and the chili sauce was a nice compliment. The tuscan chips were incredible, with a flavorful herb infused olive oil permeating them without being greasy. The real star of our meal was the salads though-my friends and I came back the next day and ordered entrée size portions of each of the salads. Highly recommended for vegans! They also have a nice wine and IPA selection.

I’ve dined in many of the best restaurants in Belfast; this one hits the mark, definitely one of the best! Try the ravioli starter, braised short ribs entrée, and the sticky toffee dessert… all fabulous. The family and employees of the other top restaurants in town suggested it, top notch. Make a reservation.

The roasted hake was exquisite, the rhubarb crumble tasted like grandma’s and the 16 year old Bushmills finished a fine evening at Home.
