Belfast Forum: 'Good' Coffee shops in belfast

im thinking this is a little far out for us to get to.

is there no-where city center :(

Unfortunately Belfast isn't really known for its coffee. Starbucks (which is just meh for its selection of beans) and SD Bells are the only ones I can think of too alas. SD Bells isn't really that awkward to get to if you have your heart set on the idea though - just get the 4a metro bus from Donegall Square West (to the right of the City Hall) and it will drop you off practically outside it - you can ask the driver for a heads up if you're unsure about where to get off.

Thanks both, its not a necessity, but i do love my coffee, and enjoy trying out different ones when I can. If time allows we may take a trip up....its just the pubs ALWAYS seem to get in the way!! hey ho :)

SD Bell's have a stall at St George's Market on Friday and Saturday (and possibly Sunday?). Might be a bit handier for you.

A-ha, I've yet to go to this market. is this the one thats there all the time, like a big foody hall type place??

We're staying in the fitzwilliam, how would we get there? Is it far?

Walk across Great Vic and stright down Howard st /May st and hay presto St Georges 5mins at most.

Definitely worth a visit but bear in mind it's actually only open on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays though :-)

thanks, thats on the definate list :)

Try Sawers at the back of the big Boots shop. Its a deli and they sell a range of speciality food. From the Fitzwilliam walk down to Wellington Place, then along Wellington Place towards the City Hall. There is a "The Streat" on the corner turn left down this street (Queen St) then turn right at the next street (you will see the back of the Boots Store in front of you). Sawers is on the left.
