Aunt Sandra’s Candy Factory
Sweeties may not be at the top of parents’ shopping lists these days, but you might be prepared to make an exception for Aunt Sandra’s Candy Factory. This 1950s-style shop sells fudge, candy, chocolates, toffee apples and other traditional sweets, which have been made by hand, and you can get a tour of the workshop before buying the goods.

Lisburn Road
Ultrahip shopping district: a straggling strip of red-brick and mock-Tudor façades lined with fashion boutiques, interior-design shops, art galleries, delicatessens, espresso bars, wine bars and chic restaurants - and the unexpected concentration of designer fashion shops (about a dozen of them) on Bloomfield Ave in East Belfast.

Fresh Garbage
