5a Coffee Shop

I had the pleasure of dining at 5a Cafe in Stranmillis, and it was a truly delightful experience. I decided to try their Special Eggs on Sourdough, and I must say, it was a culinary masterpiece! The dish was expertly prepared, with a perfect balance of acidity and fat that left my taste buds dancing with joy. The tangy notes from the sourdough bread harmonized beautifully with the richness of the eggs. It was a satisfying and wholesome meal that left me feeling restored and content. The attention to detail and the thoughtful combination of flavors truly made this dish stand out. It's evident that the chefs at 5a Cafe take pride in their craft, as each bite was a delightful revelation. Aside from the exceptional food, the cafe's ambiance was cozy and inviting, providing a relaxed and pleasant setting to enjoy the meal.

Great spot for a coffee or quick lunch, small menu which is always well prepared and there is something for everyone. The staff are friendly and attentive and managed to get us squeezed in even when they were very busy. Usually has a queue outside it but never had to wait more than 10min. Would recommend.

Ordered the Reuben, a toastd sourdough hot sandwich with pastrami, sauerkraut, Emmental cheese and Russian dressing. Has got to be best sandwich in Belfast right now. My dining partner chose the home made waffles with bacon, maple syrup and two poached eggs. Every item cooked perfectly. With two delicious cappuccinos, and friendly service from start to finish, 5A is a local treasure. We paid £25 for the sandwich, waffles, extra eggs and cappuccinos.
