Award-Winning Restaurants
Setting the bar for city dining are our numerous award-winning restaurants. Enjoy an exquisite fine dining experience at Michael Deane’s Michelin Star restaurant EIPIC or soak up the welcoming atmosphere of Home Restaurant, which received the coveted Michelin Bib Gourmand, awarded to restaurants for exceptional food at moderate prices.
Fine dining aficionados can indulge in the exceptional five course seasonal tasting menu – with an optional vegetable tasting menu – at OX (another Michelin Star winner) as well as the nine course tasting menu at the grand Great Room Restaurant at The Merchant Hotel.
If you prefer something a little more low-key, enjoy a tasty range of cichetti (Italian style tapas) at the hugely popular Coppi in St Anne’s Square.

Family Friendly Restaurants
Feeding the family? Belfast has plenty of options for you to ensure that a family meal is a treat rather than a chore! A firm Italian favourite for families is Fratelli on Great Victoria Street, where children can design and build their very own pizza at your table. Other family-friendly restaurants include Ryan’s Bar & Restaurant, Little Wing Pizzeria (which serves the largest pizzas in Ireland!) and Villa Italia.

Food Markets
There’s no better place to indulge in the aromatic tastes and scents of Belfast’s food culture than in one of the city’s thriving food markets. St George’s Market is not only one of Belfast’s oldest attractions, but also an iconic location when it comes to first-class local fare, with customers travelling near and far to sample the delights of its Friday, Saturday and Sunday Markets.

Cosy Cafés and Tempting Traybakes
Whether you’re searching for the perfect destination for a coffee and a chat, or a pit-stop to soothe those aching feet after a busy day in the city, Belfast’s coffee shops are second to none. Cafes are tucked into every street corner, including Starbucks. Visit Belfast City Hall and enjoy a large cup of coffee and home baked treats at The Bobbin Café.

Local Tipples
Belfast is a city that takes pride in its array of local producers, so if you’re in the mood for a tipple that tastes like Belfast, then the city’s craft beer and gin scene is certain to have something to fit the bill, with Hilden craft beers and Jawbox Gin among our favourites.

Food Tours
With such a rich array of tasty treats on offer, its sometimes difficult to know where to start. If you’re in the mood for sampling the best of Northern Ireland, a food tour is the way to go. McComb’s offers foodie tours, allowing you to taste food and drink from all over Northern Ireland and meet the local producers we have to thank for it. Simply bring your appetite and they will take care of the rest! Or enjoy a four hour fun and food filled guided walk to some of the top food and drink spots in Belfast with Taste and Tour.

Belfast Pub Trail
Enjoy a great range of Irish beers in Belfast, thanks to Diageo’s Pub Trail Map. Sample a pint of Guinness, Harp, Hop House 13 or Smithwick’s at some of the city’s top pubs and bars.
