Every Friday is a Boojum Friday! Always good to see alternative lunch options away from bread too

Over rated, poor service, and miserable staff. Have no idea why it gets such a good review.

Awesome food! Disappointed that they cant toast the burritos anymore, so i just get a burrito bowl. The staff could stand to be a bit nicer but customer service is lost on some people.

Really good food, but it does feel like a canteen and gets seriously crowded and loud. For takeaway I would definitely recommend, but unless you’re looking for a VERY casual meal with a few mates, I wouldn’t advise sitting in.

Blown away by a shredded beef fajita burrito. I want more….

Will be recommending this place, good value for money, fresh food which tastes awesome. Has to be a 5 star

Love Boojum. Food is fantastic and is always filling for a fiver. Staff are really friendly.

Only (slight) complaint is the atmosphere for sitting in is a bit dark and cramped. Would be nice to be able to sit towards the front of the building without a queue of people standing over you.

Very tasty. Makes a nice change to a kebab or chinese takeaway. Only reason not awarding 5 stars is due to the wait.

Having lived in Austin, Texas, before moving to Belfast, I became addicted to Tex-Mex and Mexican food. I started going through withdrawals once I moved here, until Boojum opened! Now I practically live in the place. The food is delicious and fresh, and all the food is made to order. The margaritas are also the best I’ve had in Belfast (aside from my own, that is;)  ). The staff are warm, friendly, and helpful.

There are only three things which would make me happier: a second Boojum location, more dining space in the first location (second floor???), and Negra Modelo beer (far, far better than Corona or Sol).

Tried Boojum for the first time the other night- with high expectations having read all its reviews. It didn’t disappoint.

Great burrito, friendly staff and very reasonable price. Will definitely be back.

Seriously! Believe the hype, this place rocks. Super tasty, amazing value, the Salsa Verde is incredible and they serve Corona beer.

This is how fast food should be. Fresh, quick and fabulous.

Really Amazing food at a reasonable price! Fajita burritos are unreal! Free drink refills and using the boojum loyalty card with every 10 boojums you get one free! Staff are so friendly! You will get addicted and become a Boojum fanatic though :)

One of my favourite places to eat in Belfast, love the fajita burritos :-) Really friendly staff, with a nice clean environment.  I even got a free burrito once, as they sometimes do special offers! :-)

Simple menu of mexican food.  Efficiently made (just as well, due to the frequent queues out the door) by friendly staff.

Nice layout of seating for those sitting in. Selection of beers & now cider.

Fair price for a real quality meal that will leave you satisfied and thinking of excuses to go back!

Boojum grub is simply amazing. Staff are quick, efficient and friendly - variety is good; different range of spice levels etc. Too to cater for chili demons and chili wusses alike.

My only gripe is that they serve beer but not cider - I’d like to have a bevvy with my mates but can’t drink beer, despite many attempts.. It’d be perfect if they started serving up the Aspall’s. Well, I’d settle for Bulmers.

Amazing burritos. Chicken fajita burrito everytime, just under £5. Can’t describe how amazing they are, you have to try it out for yourself. Staff are nice and friendly and any time I’ve been in there isn’t much waiting around, they’re quick to prepare your food.

Also discovered the other day that it’s a lot bigger than it looks inside with seating up round the back too.

Ate here for the first time last night and had the best burrito ever. We arrived at 9 but they let us order and sit in even tough it was supposed to close at 9. Great food & service, I’m thinking taco today!

Wow, this place is amazing. The food is fresh and gorgeous and despite the queue being out the door most lunchtimes, it moves really quickly. I would recommend the shredded beef burrito. The chilli bowl is absolutely gorgeous too. Would agree with the comments that it should include a drink from the machine for the price.

Great stuff…tasty, clean, friendly - only reason it’s not 5 stars is because it should include a soft drink from the machine for the £5… (they’d probably make more money if they did)

MMMM went here because it got a good review on Lookaly.

And yep it was very tasty indeed. Well done Lookaly for finding a yum place to go that isn’t too expensive.

Beware though only get the hot sauce if you think you can handle it. I did and it was hot- but nothing a choc ice couldn’t fix on the way home hehe

I think Boojum might be on the cards for lunch tomorrow. You need to pay the extra 50p or whatever for the guacamole, if you haven’t tried it you must.

A small place for sit in or take-away.  Very quick service with fresh ingredients and lots of flavour.  If you are unsure what salsa you might want, just ask for a sample first - the staff are very friendly and accommodating.  Usually a busy queue at lunch time, which is never a bad sign unless your in a real hurry, but it does go down quickly!
