I recently went to the Fumbally Cafe (city centre) for lunch with my mom after an exhibition in the Science Gallery. We had been before and loved it (we both had the Falafel Plate last time), so were excited to go again.
The menu changes daily and includes gluten free, vegetarian & vegan options. The kitchen is open, so you can see your food being prepared, which I love!
The interior is very cool with mismatched wooden tables, chairs and couches. You can sit at individual tables or large communal ones, which have giant fruit bowls on them.
Before I get into the good stuff (the food!), I just want to share that I'm 99% sure that David O'Doherty, the Irish comedian, was sitting at the other end of our communal table. So that was exciting!

We both ordered the Senegalese Maafe Stew (chickpea, peanut, tomato, paprika and roasted aubergine) with Rice & Shoestring Fries (vegan - if you ignore the yoghurt). I loved the stew part, because it was flavourful (spicy) and hearty. The fries were alright, but a bit cold, which made them quite rubbery. We were there at lunch time, so I don't know why they were already cold...
We split a slice of Flourless Chocolate Cake (gluten free, but not vegan!) - I initially said "oh no, I definitely don't have room for dessert...", yet magically managed to eat at least half of it! Funny how that works...
If you're looking for some tasty food in a casual setting, then I recommend a visit to the Fumbally Cafe!
