OPENING HOURS

Who are we?

At Native, we’re building more than a coffee kiosk.
We’re shaping a lively, inclusive space where people feel seen, connected, and part of something bigger. We believe small actions create real change for individuals, and for the city we love.
Community. Connection. Circularity.
The principles that guide every cup we pour and every decision we make.
People make places special.
Native exists for the city’s walkers, wanderers, workers, neighbours, and newcomers.
From the city centre to the Titanic Quarter, Sailortown to Short Strand, and all the regulars who walk the Maritime Mile from Larne right through to Lisburn . Our community spans locals, tourists, morning striders, and riverside strollers.
We’re here for the chats, the laughs, the quiet moments, and the familiar faces. Good coffee brings people together, but genuine relationships keep them coming back.
Collaboration is at our core.
We know meaningful change doesn’t happen alone. From day one, we chose to partner with people who share our values and our love for Belfast.
By bringing together different perspectives, creators, doers, and neighbours, we’ve built a space that feels energising, fun, and rooted in purpose.

Here, everyone has a part to play.

Native’s Queen’s Quay Kiosk sits right on the riverfront, directly across from the BIG FISH sculpture, beside the Lagan Weir Bridge. If you can see the bright blue salmon, you’re only a few steps away

Where to find us

Walking

The kiosk is easy to reach on foot from anywhere in Belfast’s city centre:

From Custom House Square (3–4 mins): Walk towards the river, keep the Big Fish in front of you, and cross over the Lagan Weir Bridge — you’ll see the kiosk on the riverside walkway.
From Victoria Square (6–7 mins): Head towards Ann Street, walk straight until you reach Queen’s Square, then follow signs to the Lagan Weir Bridge.
From City Hall (10–12 mins): Walk down Donegall Place towards the river. Continue straight onto High Street, passing the Albert Clock on your right. Keep going until you reach the Big Fish at Queen’s Square. From there, walk towards the Lagan Weir Bridge — the kiosk is right at the riverside, directly opposite the sculpture.

By Bus

You can get here very easily by bus:

Any city-centre bus that stops around Queen’s Square, Oxford Street, Bridge End or Custom House leaves you within a 1–3 minute walk.

Once you step off, head towards the river and walk to the Big Fish — the kiosk is directly across the bridge.

By Bike

Cycling is one of the easiest ways to get to Native:

Cycle routes run right along the Maritime Mile on both sides of the river.
You’ll find Belfast Bike docking stations right beside the big fish then finish your journey with a short walk over Lagan Weir Footbridge.
If you have your own bike, parking is available right beside the kiosk. We also have a bike repair station including a pump!
