Excellent beer and the goat pastie starter was a fine dish. Service was impeccable and the ability to do take away beers in lovely clothe bags was nice.
Molly's Yard is a wee restaurant that id off the beaten path in the student area of Belfast (Botanic). You may not notice it as you walk by but it is a lovely spot to go to.
The restaurant is medium size, has a downstairs, upstairs and outdoor seating that is fully covered. It had a lovely vibe and you can see the kitchen which is a plus. The food was fantastic - I had a lovely Gnocci but was made differently to what I have had before.
They serve local beers as well as the standards. Service was good, staff were lovely and friendly.
Pros:
- clean, lovely atmosphere
- speedy service, lovely food
- friendly staff and welcoming
- excellent prices for quality of food
Cons:
- limited seating so book in advance
- not overly wheelchair accessible
- warm downstairs in Summer but windows are there
Overall, this is a lovely spot to attend with friends, family or a first date. Would definitely recommend it.
We really enjoyed the restaurant close to the University. We parked at the university after the hour and so it was close to walk by. The flatbread starter was delicious. We had the chicken dish and it was great. The desserts were nice too.
Great location, tucked away behind the university and botanical garden. Great simple menu, not cheap by any means so we stuck to the hummus and 3 starters, the cauliflower wings were great sticky sweet and chilli hot, the blue cheese beetroot salad which was fresh and light and my celery apple soup which didn’t work for me just too light in taste and reminded me of baby apple pudding. Definitely worth a visit and definitely going to be going back ourselves. All served by brilliant staff.
What a fine restaurant set back from the street! The dishes were beautifully presented and delicious. The scallops and seafood chowder were both wonderful.
Visited here yesterday for a late lunch before heading to a concert.
Oh my word this place is a wee hidden gem and cannot believe I have not found it before.
The lunch menu may appear limited but don’t let that put you off as there is something for everyone and all I can say the quality of the food is amazing and well presented and reasonably priced for what you get .
Service was second to none from
Booking to when we left .
The staff are so friendly and accommodating and a big shout out to Marty , he was just superb and so helpful .
Definitely will be back and cannot wait
Since my first visit there it has become a must- stop every time I happen to be in Belfast. The food is always excellent, well presented and is served with great local craft beers. The service is impeccable and very friendly, with the final touch of a cosy and warm atmosphere.
Molly's Yard was certainly a highlight of my short stay in Belfast. Cozy atmosphere, friendly service and that beautiful goat herder's pie washed down with some refreshing beverages courtesy of Hilden Brewing Company!
Excellent meal, excellent atmosphere, excellent staff in this small beautiful restaurant with a beautiful patio area. We had the rib eye and the lamb, and finished with a frangipani (sp?) It would be the first restaurant I went to if I return to Belfast I can't recommend it enough.
Delicious local produce!
I cannot praise Molly's Yard highly enough. The food was spectacular; sourced locally, I cannot fault any of the dishes. The staff were warm and welcoming and clearly knew their menu very well. I look forward to eating here again. Molly's Yard is a must visit destination when you are visiting Belfast.
Booked a dinner after a theatre visit on a windy and rainy, early Saturday evening. Seated upstairs which was warm and cozy. Enjoyed Seafood Chowder with huge chunks of fish and wheaten bread on the side then Confit of Duck for main. The quality was very good. Didn't gave room for dessert. Nice restaurant - open for more than a decade and still seems like a hidden treasure.
