In the event that there was ever a triumph of environment over front line cooking, that is Muriel’s. With twelve seats in the bar first floor and about the same in different befuddling easy chairs and couches upstairs, its perpetually stuffed for either supper or early lunches which are the ideal approach to make a Sunday vanish into an upbeat fog. The stylistic theme is altogether what you’d anticipate from a previous Victorian dressmakers and bordello, the nourishment is generous and reliably great, the cupcakes are the best in Belfast, and the staff are very dotty and perpetually amicable. Book for an early supper to get your decision of squishy couch or rocker – particularly as last sustenance requests are 7.45pm, despite the fact that a cool cuts and tapenade platter is accessible until midnight.
