Food was perfect with lovely wait staff. Loved the music playing too.
Best steaks and chips I've had for a very long time. I'll be back!
Staff were very helpful but we ordered 2 steaks costing £50 and they were incredibly tough. Took a major effort to cut through them with the steak knives.
Excellent service and delicious food. Very quiet on the day we went.
Fantastic service! The food was also delicious and the perfect size of portions.
While the cloth ear is a nice setting, drinks where fine and service was perfect.
The food was mediocre at best, for the price of the food I would have expected better unfortunetly. We had the ham hock for starter and it was very dry, my wife has the chicken curry which was dry and the bread that came with it was lacking any flavour. I had the steak which was fine, but for the price I have had better elsewhere in Belfast for less.
Good food, service and location at a reasonable price.
Good was good ... service was a bit slow but we weren’t in a hurry
Service was excellent particularly for myself and my sister who were gluten free and dairy free. The chef and waitress were very helpful.
Thank you for a very enjoyable meal.
Felt very comfortable and the server was nice to have let us stay longer after the food before the next reservation
We were greeted by Shea, Who was attentive polite& very helpful, He also went out of his way to try and get an Appointment for a Spa Treat,

Clare& Marion.
This was the first visit to the Cloth Ear. Visited with a friend. We were both very impressed with the overall experience. The lunch menu was varied and our meal was served promptly. The quality and freshness of the ingredients was obvious from the taste. The staff were both friendly and professional.
Good food, great service and because the 30% off is still on it won’t break the bank! Xx fab!
We had prompt and courteous service throughout are time, the portions were very generous and when the team realised that one of our group had a birthday we received a complimentary dessert, which was a lovely touch.
Gorgeous food. Really good size portions and lots of variety.
Great quality food and drinks in a classy modern bar but in old restored style. Vast choice of cocktails and spirits, make sure you book, definitely recommend!
Really good service and food however its £2 for bacon and cheese on a burger however I asked for just cheese and it still costs £2 which is extreme for a slice of cheese
Easily booked, lovely surroundings, friendly service, great food.
Amazing food, best chowder we both ever had! Polite and attentive waiter that made good drinks recommendations!
Would definitely recommend and go back, too.
Had drinks and a meal with family members, staff was lovely, we had such a pleasant server didn't get his name but he was from Yorkshire I think he said, he was so attentive and polite. Food was good, we all enjoyed it and will definitely return.
Gorgeous food and great service.
We were there on Tuesday evening and there was 30% of the food bill.
Meeting with a cousin who we had never meet before 💕
Professional, attentive friendly staff.
Great food 👍 Definitely recommend
Lovely spot to eat. Very well organised regarding Covid 19 regulations ie cleaning, distancing etc. Food was lovely, service good and lovely atmosphere.
Food was good, waitress was very friendly and accommodating. Restaurant was fairly quiet but it was Sunday evening.
Excellent time spent in the cloth ear. Very satisfying social distancing rules, hand sanitisers dotted about. Relaxed environment given the stress around the current pandemic.
Clear QR code on the tables for contact tracing. We will be back!
Good food and cocktails
Social distancing maintained
Food was nice i had curry was great ,my husband had fish and chips a bit to much batter on it which was very hard but fish was lovely
Great food and staff are extremely helpful
Spacious booth by the window, wine was chilled, food was tasty and not ridiculously priced. Staff very friendly and attentive. I would definitely go back. Many thanks
Very helpful staff
Food was acceptable, my husband’s was a small portion. Good served quickly though the drinks service was poor. Had to wave them over to order and once we ordered it was forgotten about and had to order again. Weren’t giving the table any attention. Considering it is only table service at the moment that was surprising.
Excellent table service. Good food and social distancing measures spot on. Will be back!
The cloth ear food was delicious, the staff were very friendly and they had a good range of gins.
Had a lovely meal in The
Cloth Ear and some nice wine also! SERVICE was spot on.
Amazing food and great service. Can’t wait to go back soon.
Good quality bar food in nice surroundings,
Limited menu but done well and presents reasonable value for money.
Fish and chips includes great mushy peas, seafood chowder is tasty, and salt and chilli beef whilst not aesthetically pleasing is super tasty...
The food was very nice and it was good value with the half price EOTHO discount, however staff were very difficult to get a hold of and it took approx. 40 minutes from being seated for staff to take our lunch order. After eating our main course, it took another 20-30 minutes for the plates to be taken and to get the bill. We ended up not ordering desserts because we didn’t have the time to wait around for service again.
As a result of poor service, we ended up having to pay for three hours of parking for what I had hoped to be an hourlong meal. Multiple other tables looked to be bothered by the long waits for service, however it did not appear particularly busy and staff did not appear to be overly friendly.
It seemed like staff were more focused on getting arriving customers seated quickly than actually serving the already seated customers.
Enjoyed the food with the discount, but probably won’t be back if this is what the service is always like.
Preferred old menu more pub grub in nature.
First time here. Excellent service throughout, and food was perfect.
