Bridewell Coffee and Provisions — Restaurant in Northern Ireland

Let's start by saying the coffee is great. The location is great and it's a nice space they have but the reality is the staff, bar the bearded barista, have to be the most unfriendly and unprofessional ever. You feel like a hindrance when entering. Your entrance is normally greeted by the back of a mobile phone. After they have finished with this, you get a grunt if lucky. No one ever says hello or goodbye and I have never had my meal checked on. Food is fair, not great but again not expensive either.

It's severely lacking in someone to lead a team. It's severely lacking friendly staff. All the good points can't outweigh the thoroughly uninterested staff they have. One one occasion after ordering all 3 staff sat at a table on their phones and didn't even raise a head...

Rubbish, service very very slow, ordered 2 toasties but they'd no hock ham left, so we changed the order, then 10 minutes later there found the ham so we were able to have our original order. 30 minutes later we still hadn't got our toasties. Coffee was cold too and had to be sent back. £24 wasted, won't be back. Can't comment on the quality of the food as it STILL hasn't arrived 🙄 To be a bit more fair I have to say that when the food actually arrived it was very good so I've amended my rating...

Nice use of the building. They're trying to do really good food. For example, I had a leek, tomato and bean stew, a mocha coffee and a croissant. Bean stew was nice but very sweet, and the sourdough bread was a beautiful texture with good butter, though it could use a bit more flavour. The "croissant" was of the floppy variety - no texture or crunch at all - I only ate a few bites. The mocha (even though served, de rigueur, in a glass)...
