We found The Northern Whig by chance and what a find it was! The food is absolutely wonderful, with our globally travelled friend stating it was THE best meal she has EVER eaten! Top marks to the Chef/Kitchen Team for producing the most tasty and beautifully presented food. However, the gem of our time in Belfast overall is undoubtedly Mark who looked after us (and so many other tables/guests! Mark is truly exemplary; his attention to detail, speed at ensuring all guests are cared for in a timely and appropriate manner, his friendliness and knowledge of the Menu/drinks/Belfast is 'incredibly comprehensive and he is totally charming and genuinely sincere. We all could not stop talking about M...
Us again... My self and my husband came for food on Saturday night and late Sunday afternoon. The Whig is by far our favourite place in Belfast. Garlic Mushrooms Salmon Risotto for me on Saturday, husband had the bread and open steak sandwich. It was delightful. It's not a criticism, but the bread starter would work well as a sharer. The garlic butter was to die for. Sunday, I had the squid and then lamb, husband had the chorizo breadsticks and the the beef. We always enjoy our food and drinks in The Whig, however this was by far the best. It was also lovely to see some of the same staff, for example Mirek, and the gent who had the checked shirt on (forgot his name looks like a manager? also...
Discovered this establishment following a day of exploring Belfast. Could not have chosen better. Greeted by the incredibly nice and polite waiter Mirek. We hadn't booked but that was no problem and he looked after us splendidly. It's a lovely restaurant, full of character and original features and the food was superb. We all thought it was lovely. It was nicely presented and came out promptly. I could hardly eat it I was that full, but the apple pie for dessert was superb! No hesitation in recommending the Northern Whig!
My dad and I visited the Northern Whig for lunch and had a fantastic experience. For our mains we had the roast of the day and the salmon risotto, and then the apple pie and banoffee to follow. Both the food and cocktails were lovely; however, the service was definitely the highlight of the meal. Mark is an absolute character and always took the time to chat with us and have a laugh. He is absolutely a credit to the company. We will definitely return : Jess

We would visit the Northern whig regularly the atmosphere is amazing and the food is excellent but what sets the Northern whig out from other restaurants/bars in Belfast is the staff they are very friendly especially Mirek Mark they are so attentive and friendly you definitely couldn't ask for better service.
A must place to stop after a long walk in Belfast. Northern Wiig is a great atmosphere lots of fun, jazzy, music, and great service. Really enjoyed our servers! Mark and Grace were fun and lighthearted- we were well look after. It was a very enjoyable experience. Must try the summer cloud.
Excellent food. Great service came twice because Mark served us so well. Huge portions tried several items on the menu over two nights and everything was incredible. Bread board...roast beef...salads everything great and reasonable.
Great atmosphere, classy yet still modern. Nice saloon, lightning and music. Great bar. We had the open steak sandwich, some veg rolls and the Cesars salad. All was amazing. The staff was really cool too. We were served by Mark.
