Excellent high quality menswear. Great friendly service from the owners Andrew and Tim. Left with a beautiful down filled jacket. Not cheap, but excellent quality.

Probably the best upper end menswear shop in Belfast. Exquisite choice of clothes, highly recommended if you're looking for something special and not cheap.

First class, I have been a customer for years and if someone is looking for quality Menswear they really should call in, Andrew and Tim always go the extra mile. For both quality of product and service Andrew Watson's is a five star review, all day long.
