    Great Food - huge queue

    Been here a few times and have never had anything less than a delightful feed. Just a few things to consider 1 . If you'e there between 12 & 2 you'll spend a long time queueing and you won't get a seat. 2. They insist...More

    Tasty food in central Belfast

    Very good value and incredibly tasty comfort food. The portion sizes are very generous and the service was efficient. Some really good vegetarian and vegan options (I'd recommend the split pea and lentil gumbo!) It's quite a small place so you can't always guarantee a...More

    Comfort Food; Lovely, Smiling Ladies

    Jet- and train-lagged I staggered into this place hidden in Pottinger's Entry (which hides other interesting things as well). I needed a home-cooked meal. I got one. Nothing fancy. But it was delicious (a quesadilla), and it kind of stabilized me. And they were so...More

    Busy lunch stop and justified by the food!

    Great wee lunch stop with excellent fresh food - didn't know the area at all so asked the cashier in a nearby clothes store where to go for lunch and she recommended The Grapevine. It was so busy, you might have walked past as a...More

    Tasty

    Tasty food, with the feel of quality, fresh ingredients. Soups and stews and the like, for both take out and sitting in. You could do a lot worse than stop in here for lunch, or to grab lunch and go.

    Hidden gem

    Lovely food, lovely staff, great menu & all for a brilliant price. Great spot for lunch, esp the home made stew or seafood chowder (one of the best I've tasted!) Will be back!

    Tiny cafe with a superb menu

    This tiny cafe down Pottingers Entry is my favourite haunt in Belfast for an interesting breakfast or lunch. It's amazing that such a small place can produce food to the high standard that it does every time. Their seafood chowder is not to be missed...More
