About This Place

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Belfast at 43A Rosemary Street, The 3 C's Social Club offers an inviting dining experience that beautifully marries classic pub warmth with a sophisticated culinary edge. This restaurant serves up a delectable selection of dishes that spotlight rich, comforting flavors alongside refined twists, perfect for both casual nights out and special occasions.

The menu presents a thoughtfully curated range of starters that tease the palate: crispy buffalo or hot honey & fresh chili wings deliver a perfect hit of heat and crunch, balanced by cooling ranch dressing and fresh rocket salad. For a more delicate start, the satay chicken skewers accompanied by Asian slaw and raita dip bring aromatic spices and creamy refreshment, while the goat’s cheese croquette alongside candied beetroot and figs is a symphony of textures and nutty sweetness enhanced by a subtle hazelnut dressing.

Dive into the main courses, where each dish is a celebration of quality ingredients and skillful preparation. The pan-roasted duck breast stands out with its succulent meat paired against velvety butternut squash purée, jewel-like pomegranate seeds, and duck fat chips that crackle with golden crispiness, all brought together by a rich, indulgent duck gravy. Equally captivating is the spring lamb rump, with baked rainbow carrots, lamb fat crumb, crushed minted peas, and confit baby potatoes wrapped in rosemary-infused mash—classic, hearty, and layered with flavor. Seafood lovers will appreciate the pan-fried seabass, served atop lemon and herb couscous with a complement of crushed pistachios, creating a fresh and vibrant plate that sings with Mediterranean charm.

Finish your meal with one of their comforting desserts, each bite a gratifying experience: the sticky toffee pudding draped with luscious vanilla ice cream invites rich, sticky sweetness; the homemade cheesecake changes daily, promising a fresh surprise every time, balanced by fresh cream; cherry bakewell offers a charming nod to British classics with vanilla ice cream and custard; and the Dubai brownie, inspired by rich chocolate flavors, comes paired with pistachio sauce for an exotic twist.

The atmosphere at The 3 C's Social Club perfectly complements its culinary offerings. The space is a cleverly hidden gem, giving a sense of exclusivity and discovery. Customers speak of the warm, friendly vibe with attentive staff who treat every guest like a member of a tight-knit community. The mixture of a lively social club downstairs paired with an intimate restaurant setting upstairs makes it a versatile venue that caters to both lively gatherings and restful meals. As noted by patrons, the combination of great pints, top-notch service, and well-priced menu selections creates an almost blissful dining experience.

Whether you’re looking for hearty pub classics or elegantly crafted dishes with a modern twist, The 3 C's Social Club brings together authentic flavors with a unique Belfast spirit. Its charm goes beyond the food—with great music, a friendly crowd, and a buzzing atmosphere, it leaves you feeling genuinely cared for and eager to return.

    Fantastic little hideaway in the heart of Belfast. Great pub with restaurant upstairs. Good variety of beers and the best pint of Carling (my partner said....EVER!) I had a lovely glass of Chilean Chardonnay beautifully cold. Brilliant prices......how? We had a meal upstairs and it was pure bliss.......he had steak, mushrooms & chips with pepper sauce (proper chips too) and I had seabass with asparagus and mash. Amazing and so inexpensive. Service was great and it's now one of our favourite places to eat! Couldn't fault it.

    Am honest hidden gem. The double security door entry is either "exclusive" cool or terrifying depending on how you look at it. Ring the bell on the non-descript door in the alley and they buzz you through. Make your way to the second floor where you sign in, then off to the third floor where they put the "non-members". Don't feel like you are getting second-rate service/food though, because you won't. Gary (from Kerry) provided warm and attentive service. Some of the best service we've experienced in Ireland (North or South). The food is quite good. We had the wings, polenta, and battered haddock. All of it was amazing. The pictures that I took don't do the food justice. Great job to Gary and the rest of the staff. You are awesome. Also, kid friendly.

    Honestly? A really underrated bar in Belfast. Prices are very reasonable, the pints are great and the bartenders are always lovely. If you get a decent wee day, I'd highly recommend the beer garden. The food is quite nice too so if you like pub grub then give it a try.
