About
Experience a taste of Spain in the heart of Belfast’s Cathedral Quarter — where every visit to 2Taps feels like a mini getaway.
Celebrating 20 years of 2Taps — Belfast’s family-run home of tapas, wine, and good times. Since 2005, they’ve been part of the Cathedral Quarter story, one of the first restaurants to bring the buzz back to CQ.
Founded by Sydney and Brenda O’Neill and now proudly run by their children, Jarron and Victoria O’Neill-Watson, 2Taps continues a tradition built on great hospitality, local ingredients, and good times shared around the table.
Their menu celebrates Spanish and Mediterranean flavours with a Belfast twist — small plates, big flavours, and food made for sharing. Expect favourites like sizzling chorizo, crispy patatas bravas, and fresh seafood, all made using locally sourced produce from partners such as Carnbrook, Ewings, Yellow Door, and Whittens.
Enjoy your meal with cocktails, sangria, or a hand-picked wine from Neill Wines and Direct Wine Shipments. Whether you’re dining indoors or on their heated, dog-friendly terrace, you’ll always find a warm welcome.
At 2Taps, their vision is simple: serve great food, build a strong team, and grow a business that gives back. Guided by their values of integrity, respect, excellence, fun, and community, they’re proud to be part of Belfast — and proud to serve those who make it special.
Come eat, share, and celebrate — your table is waiting.
