There are several boojum outlets in the city but this one is the original and the closest to the house. Simple, delicious burritos which are filling and only cost about £5. Pretty much everyone loves Boojum.

This is a bar but I have included it under food because their food is great. They have the best burgers in Belfast in my humble opinion. For indulgence, try their 'parful fries' - heavily calorie laden fries which are so good.

Drinks & Nightlife
The best alcohol selection of any off-licence in Belfast. The staff are really friendly and knowledgeable about their booze, especially beer! They have a particularly good gin and whisky selection also. They also serve draft beer from a tap at the back of the shop which can be brought home in a growler, which we can lend to you during your stay if you wish!

The start of the towpath is just a 20 minute walk away. It follows the river Lagan all the way to a neighbouring city Lisburn (10 miles away). There is a well maintained tarmac path the whole way, or you can take beaten tracks through fields and meadows at different sections. It's a really beautiful place for a walk. The Lock keepers is a lovely cafe along the path, very popular with walkers.
