Rumour's Coffee House has recently opened up in what for many years, used to be the old 'Twilight…read moreZone' gaming centre. It has a great position right in the centre of the town, with fantastic views of the castle and Belfast Lough. The inside is bright and has lots of seating. They offer the usual teas and coffees, with an amazing range of milkshakes, soft drinks and hot chocolate. I had a bacon butty when I visited which was delicious, but they also have a good range of sandwiches, sweet treats, and waffles! Limited parking is available on the street outside, and further up Main Street. Failing that there is lots of free parking available in the Castle Car Park, just a short walk away.

Superb coffee and I'm a coffee snob! Moist scones with good jam. A great view to boot.read more

Wanted to find a nice local spot for brunch while we were in Belfast. This was a 5 min walk from…read moreour AirBnB. It looked like a serious coffee shop, so we decided to give it a try. This was a great choice. I grabbed a cinnamon roll, and ordered a cup of their filtered coffee (they no longer offer Chemex, sadly) and an order of poached eggs on toast with a side of bacon. This was something new for me, and I loved the simplicity of it. The sourdough toast was amazing, and the poached eggs went with it perfectly. High marks for the bacon also! Service was quick, and everything was brought out promptly. This is a nice coffee shop, plenty of seating, and a quiet place to have a conversation or get some work done. I know the people in the UK love their tea, but I would happily be a regular here if I lived in Belfast.

The food, service, and vibes were immaculate! Would definitely recommend this place to anyone for…read morebreakfast.

I was really glad to see this coffee shop open a few months ago. It was one thing Carrick was…read moreseriously lacking as there weren't many places where you could just go for a relaxed coffee and catch up, particularly later on in the day when the cafes had closed for the day. Creed is surrounded by glass walls so you can see inside the relaxed and tastefully decorated shop as you drive past, however the lighting inside is muted so you can see everything comfortable without it being intrusive. I finally visited for a cup of tea with a friend about 6 weeks after it opened, and the experience was great. In the area where the shop is, there are two other businesses, a flooring shop and a pizza takeaway. There is enough parking to cover the three as long as things don't get too busy, and it's a short walk from the front door. We got a seat no problem when we arrived, and got served straight away. I just had the berry tea which came served in an infuser, and it was beautiful, my friend had a coffee. We didn't eat this time, but I saw a fantastic range of pastries, tray-bakes and sandwich options, so will definitely make a point of going back for food soon, particularly as I follow them on Facebook, and the salads they post up look absolutely divine! They also have some really comfy leather couches, great if you aren't in a rush and want to just chill out and watch the world go by.

The cabbage and bacon was absolutely delicious. Their chicken was a big hit with many of the surrounding tables ordering them so we had to try them. I am glad that we did because they were fried to perfection and served with a wonderful garlic sauce. We also had a grilled cheese and onion sandwich that was very good. The absolute best part of the meal was the bakery items. Their salted caramel cake was to die for. It was three layered and super fresh. The pumpkin roll was also absolute perfection. I will definitely return to this restaurant.

I found out about Lost & Found on Instagram, though I couldn't tell you how anymore. When I was…read moreplanning my trip to Northern Ireland, I knew it was a must visit just because of their Insta aesthetic, which sounds so millennial, but I wasn't wrong! Lost & Found was my final stop on a day trip from Belfast to Bushmills to Carrick-a-Rede and then to Coleraine for a Friday night pizza here. Fridays are the only days they do Pizza and if you're around Coleraine or can get yourself there, just go. You won't regret it. Reservations are required and easy to make on their website, and upon arrival we were seated right away. My friend and I both ordered a pizza and neither of us were disappointed. In fact, the only disappointing thing about the experience was knowing that we had to leave Coleraine and come home to New York. The staff were warm, friendly, and so, so welcoming and the pizza was outstanding. If you're in Ireland (North or South) or traveling through this wonderful country, do yourself a favor and make this a spot that you get to, even if it's out of your way. Months later I still dream of going back here.

The staff here tend to be good and there is a great consistency to the service so it's always a pleasure. The only drawback is there is a tendency for people in here to take up a seat before actually going to the counter and getting their coffee/food so there are times when after walking away with your order at busy times you might be lucky to get a seat with it !
