The male server suggested we come back later, but we ignored him and found a table where a couple was leaving. We ordered two large breakfasts and two pots of tea. Unfortunately, the food was the worst we've had in the UK and Ireland. The breakfasts were soaked in grease and completely inedible. This was the worst dining experience we've had in Belfast, and we will not be returning to this pricey establishment. On the bright side, we found a cafe nearby called 36 Cafe that we would highly recommend. It was a 10 out of 10 experience.

Because of this inconsistency, we no longer dine at Binky's and choose to eat at restaurants where we can trust our meals to be prepared correctly.

Even after two of us tried the cheesecake, we both regretted it. One of us opted for the chocolate cake, which was mediocre at best. There was more chocolate sauce than actual cheesecake. We recommend sticking with Cafe Maud's homemade-style cheesecake instead.

For a little variety, we also sampled the cinnamon sweet potato with avocado on sourdough, and it was perfect. I’ll be recommending this place to anyone who will listen. Oh, and the staff were amazing too!
