We went to Belly Café for a birthday and ordered the huge, thick American-style pancakes – absolutely fantastic! 🎂 Without us even asking, they came out with candles for the birthday child, which was such a thoughtful touch.
Even though the place was very busy, the whole team was incredibly friendly, professional, and always served us with a smile. The food was so excellent that we had to come back a few days later – again, our expectations were exceeded. Even special requests (like an extra-spicy steak sandwich with a separate sauce) were taken care of perfectly.
The portions are big, everything is freshly prepared, and every dish we tried was outstanding. A very special thanks goes to Amy, who was truly the heart and soul of our experience – warm, attentive, and simply wonderful. The entire team was on point and super efficient.
If I lived in Mullingar, I’d be here at least once a week! 👌

Impeccable as always. Great service - always courteous and efficient. Food was delicious - teens shared the full breakfast, which was massive and delicious, with homemade rosti. I had my usual avocado smash, still the best you'll get in the whole of Ireland.

Best cafe in town in my opinion for heathy and wholesome food and a way more interesting menu than the usual. All day breakfast, lunch specials and great vegan options too. Staff are lovely and courteous and food comes quickly.

A nice cafe, I've only tried the Huevos Rancheros for breakfast, no complaints.

Ferociously overpriced! Over €32 for vegan breakfasts with 2 coffees that weren't filled up! This place looks real cool tbf and the food was good but at that price..? Many other places give you a bit more bang for your buck. Oh and, staff did seem in a bit of a hurry to get on. I get it was busy but...
This is a smashing little place in Mullingar. It’s open Tuesday to Saturday but one of the best things is that the breakfast menu is available all day.
The choice of breakfasts and other food is extensive, creative and delicious.
As a committed carnivore I opted for a change for a “flat belly”(if only!) vegetarian breakfast. It was substantial, well presented and cooked and really delicious. Vegetarian food prepared and presented like this is what will help people reduce their meat intake, if that’s what they want to do.
My quibbles? The tea is awful, weak and has the taste and appearance of old-style airline tea, have they not heard of “Barry’s”?
The service could be warmer, more pleasant, less perfunctory, a smile and hello does wonders for the reputation of a place.
The atmosphere could be improved by making the restaurant a bit warmer and brighter.
Don’t let the quibbles out you off, though, the food is first class.
