"Fat Gherkin always delivers on a delicious soda stack; think I’ve visited four times. I had the full stack and a flat white and it was so tasty. My only qualm is I’m used to asking a café can I swap out items for similar items and it’s never been an issue. The Fat Gherkin waiter assured me I could make the items swap and it was my assumption no additional charges would be added. Surprised to see my £10 soda stack was increased to £13.20; I had asked for three items removed and two added. Messaged the café with my concern 7 days ago but no reply. Oh well."

Lacking atmosphere and staff not welcoming and friendly…. Coffee was ok, not much choice of sweet treats to accompany the coffee which was disappointing.

Located just ten minutes away from Belfast Airport, this restaurant offers fantastic food and has an extremely friendly staff. They are able to cater to vegetarian and vegan dietary preferences. The atmosphere is very family-friendly and overall fantastic. Thank you for the great food and service!

I ordered the egg avo which I expected to be the standard smashed avocado on toast with 2 poached eggs. I got that but I also got mushrooms, tomato, another slice of toast with butter and watercress with French dressing. It was all a bit much and just didn 't work for me. The food itself was lovely but my eggs were slightly undercooked and I felt a bit sick afterwards. All the traybakes and scones look lovely and it seems like a really popular place. But the menu just wasn 't for me I think it needs to be a bit simplified and smaller portions.

"Without a doubt the worst experience we have ever had. Pre booked a table for 5 for dinner on Saturday evening and when we arrived they didn't seem that busy. We were shown to our table relatively quick. We then had to sit there for around 20 minutes until someone came to take our food order. I was a bit surprised that there was only 2 steaks on the menu unless you gave 24hr notice.We then had to ask could we order a drink. It wasn't a difficult order 1 beer and 4 Fanta. We waited a further 15 for the drinks to come which were wrong also the glasses were disgusting with lipstick and previous drink residue on them.we eventually got all that sorted and the food came. I had ordered a mixed grill which was £28 I asked for my steak to be cooked medium. The plates were literally just in front of us 2 minutes when a waitress came and asked was everything OK. As I began to work my way through the food I eventually got to the 8oz steak which was very well done and extremely hard to chew so it was left. When everyone had finished they came to clear the plates and I told the waitress that I had asked for medium and not well done and to my surprise she immediately got on the defensive asking did someone come and see if everything was OK I told her yes but it was just after the food was brought. 2 minutes later the owner of the place came out of the kitchen with my steak on a small plate and proceeded to tell me I was wrong and that that's the way a medium steak should look but there was not even a slight tinge of pink. He then started to tell me that I didn't know how steak was cooked. I then mentioned the glasses and he said didn't they get replaced so what's the problem. At this point t my kids were getting pretty upset so I just asked for the bill so we could leave. To be honest it was very intimidating to have a well over 6ft man stand over you arguing over a piece of steak. I definitely would not recommend this place to anyone."
