These photos take you back to the noughties and how we dined back then.
They show some of the most popular restaurants from the 2000s, from Belfast to Benburb, and Cookstown to Craigavon.
The owners, chefs and waiting staff are pictured in this retro photo gallery, along with diners enjoying a meal out.
The restaurants pictured range from award-winning fine-dining establishments to much-loved local takeaways.
Some of the places pictured have sadly shut their doors for good since these photos were taken, but others are still going strong.
Is your favourite restaurant among those featured, and do these nostalgic images bring back any happy memories of special nights out?
