Deanes Meat Locker Menu

Deanes Meat Locker is a grill led restaurant within Michael Deane’s Howard Street collection in central Belfast. Warm, luxurious surroundings and an energetic dining room give it the feel of a serious steakhouse without unnecessary stiffness. Its position close to the Grand Opera House also makes the restaurant practical for pre-theatre dining.

Beef, lamb and pork sourced in County Down form the heart of the menu. The kitchen uses an Asador grill to apply heat accurately, building a deeply browned exterior while controlling the final texture of each cut. Steaks are the main attraction, but the same attention extends to poultry, fish and vegetables served from the grill.

Lunch and pre-theatre menus provide a shorter format, while dinner gives diners a wider choice of cuts and accompaniments. Vegetarian and vegan selections ensure the restaurant can accommodate more than dedicated meat eaters, and children have their own choices. Desserts and cheese complete the classic steakhouse progression.

A wine list supports the richness of grilled meat, with cocktails and other drinks available before or after the meal. The Salon Privé offers private dining for groups and can use tailored menus. Deanes Meat Locker brings together regional produce, confident live fire cooking and the attentive service of an established Belfast restaurant group.

Address: 28–40 Howard Street, Belfast BT1 6PF, United Kingdom
