Coffee Shops · Belfast
Tucked into a corner of Belfast that plenty of people walk past for years before finally going in, this is a small, cosy independent with comfy furniture, original artwork on the walls and a genuinely warm team. Staff patience shows up in the details — one parent arriving stressed with a big pram at a packed hour was quietly found a spot at the end of a table, which tells you a lot. There are high chairs, a kids' menu, buggy access, free parking and outdoor seating for when inside fills up. The beef sausage roll comes heated with sauce and a little salad, and the goats cheese and mango brioche gets talked about; coffee is generally excellent, though the mocha can miss. Dog friendly, open early and later than most nearby cafés.

A little something creative for your next meal out. Filled with colouring, simple drawing prompts for cute animals, origami and conversation starters designed to bring more play, laughter and connection to the table. 3 free printable packs for toddlers, preschoolers and primary-aged children.
