Drink with a view. We were coming back from walking to Titanic when there was a break in the weather from overcast to sunny so we headed up to level O in the lifts to the left on the lobby floor to get a view of Belfast that was stunning. Staff were super friendly and helpful. The beer and cider were welcome refreshments whilst we enjoyed the ambience.
Beautiful place, views were amazing. Food was lovely, but Maddie the server was so friendly, showed an interest in us, brilliant
The views are breathtaking, the food was amazing and the staff were wonderful. I was particularly impressed with the children’s afternoon tea which was very thoughtful.
The view of Belfast from the 23rd floor at observatory is quite breathtaking. The iconic Belfast City Hall looked even more gorgeous and historical from an ariel view. It is not everyday you get such opportunities to dine and wine at this luxurious location. The customer service was great, attendance were very pleasant and welcoming. Of course the afternoon tea package was great and you can book the champagne option as well.
Stopped by for a few drinks with colleagues and had a lovely time. Service was exceptional and quick - all the recommendations were good. Ended up going with a Botanical Garden (Japanese Blossom Gin, Raspberry, Lemon, Pineapple, Cherry Perfume) and really liked it. If we’d had more time, I would have gone with an afternoon tea.
