Luxury Afternoon Tea with Cocktails at Belfast’s Grand Central Hotel Observatory!
The Grand Central Hotel is the new shining star of Belfast City. Located in the heart of Belfast on Bedford Street, this hotel dominates the city skyline, with its awe-inspiring height and beautiful contemporary design. The seventh hotel in the Hastings Hotels Collection, the Grand Central Hotel is Belfast history reborn as it perfectly represents all the glamour and grandeur of a top-class modern hotel while also paying homage to the vibrant history of the previous Grand Central Hotel founded in the 19th century that was an integral part of Belfast history.
The Observatory elevates Afternoon Tea to a new level. Take a trip to our 23rd floor to savour an array of the finest teas, coffees and handcrafted delicacies from our chefs while you take in panoramic views across the city.
The Observatory’s Afternoon Tea menu is a carefully curated journey through the finest local and seasonal ingredients, meticulously prepared to delight even the most discerning palates.

Accompanying these savoury delights are freshly baked scones, served warm with clotted cream and an array of artisanal preserves.
The pièce de résistance is the assortment of pastries and confections that crown this elegant affair.
