Why I Love...
South Belfast How long have you been living/working in the South Belfast area? South Belfast is an area I know so well, I was born and raised in the Sandy Row area and went to school at Victoria College Belfast before attending Queens for my nursing degree. I have now had my clinic, AlterEgo Aesthetics, in the beautiful Queens Quarter for a year this month! What do you like most about South Belfast? South Belfast is such a beautiful part of the city and is so diverse, there really is something for everyone! The Queens Quarter is my favourite area, the leafy avenues, beautiful architecture and period buildings give so much character to the area and it is always bustling with activity. There are some amazing spots for dining and of course a walk around the beautiful botanical gardens is always good for the soul. The Lisburn Road is a close second with its array of shops and restaurants, it’s been really

lovely this summer to see so many people outside enjoying food and drinks, it has such a cosmopolitan vibe! Does South Belfast have any hidden gems? There are so many lovely parks in the area, great for dog walking but Lagan Meadows is my favourite. It is beautiful any time of the year and the lock keepers is great for a coffee to help us keep up with our Belgian Shephard dog! The lyric theatre is a hidden gem when it comes to entertainment, most people think of the Grand opera house, or the Mac but there is always a wide variety of performances and displays on offer in a nice intimate setting, they also do great coffee with stunning views if you’re passing by! Where do you like to dine and socialise in the local area? A A Peculiar Tea on University Road is a must do, it’s not just a meal, it’s a unique dining
experience! I am blown away every time, the attention to detail is unreal, prepare to be amazed! Darcy’s restaurant is also a wee hidden gem in Shaftsbury Square for a more traditional meal, the food and cocktails are great and it’s a beautiful atmosphere. The Empire is a great venue for entertainment with comedy nights, tribute acts and a whole host more. There are 3 floors so something for everyone and there is always a good vibe.
