A new menu at Wynne & Pym in the Ulster Museum
Tuesday, February 11, 2020
Have you been to Wynne & Pym, the new restaurant in the Ulster Museum, yet? I was invited to try the new expanded menu and was very impressed.
Wynne & Pym has been open for six months but this was my first visit. I was delighted to be asked to try the new menu and pleased to see that local produce very firmly takes centre stage.
Some of the dishes I got to sample included- delicious home-made soup shots, vegan sausage rolls with quinoa, chickpea & squash, Irish pork & black pudding sausage rolls, traditional Irish Stew, spicy chickpea curry, Irish pork sausages, buttery mash, gravy & savoy cabbage, Pattons Belfast Baps with roast bacon loin, home-made wheaten breas, focaccia with sundried tomatoes, pesto & rocket, Irish Black Butter, Broighter Gold oils, mixed salads, Draynes Farm ice cream and Pattons fifteens.
I have to say, everything was delicious but the stand out dish for me was the spicy chickpea curry. I will definitely be back to try that again

The food looks fab
Thanks for the comment Elaine- it was fab!
Nobody cares, Lynne. I tried it food was bang average, your over hyping it massively.
I DEMAND a refund!!
My post was from 4 years ago so we obviously had different experiences. It was only opened when I went!- Lynne
I will have to try this place- didn’t know it was there!
Hi Petra- I didnt know it was there either but I’m definitely planning another visit
It’s extremely expensive. I got a fanta, bottle of cola, cookie and a gluten free cookie and this cost £13.65. for two cookies and two bottle of juice. Still can’t work out how it cost so much as there is no clear pricelist
That seems very pricey! My post was from 4 years ago so a lot has probably changed in that time- Lynne
