Robinson & Cleaver

Nice coffee shop close to the city hall, I attended a memorial event at the city hall and we had coffee here after, nice coffee and a nice coffee shop to sit in, nice décor and the staff were friendly and helpful. Would go back again.

Outstanding service and food. Risotto was Killer. Waiter: over the top! Highly recommend. Fast, great service and food.

A culinary jewel — the upstairs restaurant of Robinson & Cleaver is currently one of the best places to eat in Belfast. Great gourmet food, they also have a dedicated vegetarian menu for both lunch and dinner. Wine list is delightful. I’ve been in here a few times and always wanted to get a table on the upstairs terrace overlooking the city hall. Managed to get onto it today for lunch and it did not disappoint. Will be making a beeline for this place all through the summer months. Cannot fault this restaurant at all — it’s heavenly.

If you like the minimalist vibe then Robinson & Cleaver is the lunch destination for you. Located opposite the City Hall Robinson & Cleaver is the café of choice for many local office workers — thus it can get busy at peak times.
Robinson & Cleaver is a bit of a sun trap — the huge glass front of the building creates a green house feel — if you’re a sun worshiper head here and grab a window seat — you’ll be slathering on the factor 50 in no time.
In terms of lunchtime grub Robinson & Cleaver offers sandwiches and snacks. You can opt to have your sandwich heated if you like, although the sun might cook it if you set it near the window. They have a great meal deal, which includes a sandwich, soft drink and a snack (apple, banana or tray bake) for a fiver. You’ll be hard pushed to find a better deal than this in the City centre.
I’m a fan of Robinson & Cleaver — I like the layout and the minimalist feel to the place — it’s open and airy and the glass front makes it feel as if you’re sitting outside. It’s the perfect escape from a stuffy office.

OMG, not sure what to say about this place. Very up to date. The restaurant was clean. The food was good and the waitstaff was very friendly. So I had the specials for the day soup was broccoli and cheese and the ribs. The soup was outstanding, truly outstanding, the best I have had out. The ribs were okay. I will be back if I am in Belfast.

Great views over the City Hall, but average food on my first visit. Having had an awesome burger at The Barking Dog the day before, I was a little disappointed with the one here. The balance of flavours was wrong — too sweet, not salty enough — and the patties were overcooked. I’d probably give it another chance in the summer, as the terrace would be a great place to watch the world go by.
